Hmm. Your information about the gigafactory is at odds with a quotation by Elon Musk in Bloomberg today. maybe it is all just a ruse. - - Begin quote: California didn’t make Tesla’s list of potential sites for the battery plant because of the amount of time needed to win environmental and regulatory approval, Musk said.

“California has a lot of regulatory agencies, and although this will be a very green factory, we can’t have a situation where an enormous amount of data has to be processed by a regulatory agency to find no significant impact and then give us approval to proceed,” he said.

Musk had told reporters in China last week that the company was considering two locations, the Associated Press reported.
