Ali Hounsell said that it had taken several days for the company to helicopter in the heavy equipment, and that removal work needed to begin now in order to be off the site by Monday's deadline.

"We're disappointed, but we respect the court's decision so we made plans to remove the equipment from that site as the injunction expires midnight Sunday," Hounsell said. "We are starting to remove that equipment today by helicopter."
