From yesterday's PR:
"Global Ethanol prides itself on process efficiency and its commitment to continuous improvement," said Trevor Bourne, Global's chief executive officer. . . "We believe corn oil extraction to be essential to our goal of leading in the low cost production of ethanol, and we are excited to start producing and selling corn oil within the next 2 to 3 months."
One of the advantages of plant owner financing and ownership is they are in a position to make things happen fast. Hopefully this means that specialized parts are on site and cement pours have already been completed in warmer weather. Production by the end of FEB? By the end of the first quarter? If things can be spun up that fast, it may be a good indication of how fast things can move going forward.

Also note the figure "more than 2.2M gallons". This is more than the 1.5M claimed for a standard 50MMGY plant. But it is less than the 3M expected from a 100MMGY plant. This is either a more conservative estimate of production; an estimate based on the particular circumstances of the Lakota plant (production varies among other things, dependent on the manufacturer of ethanol plant equipment and the fat content of the area corn), or a combination of reasons.
". . . GreenShift’s patented corn oil extraction technologies designed to extract more than 2.2 million gallons per year . . ."
