He says the two parties are meeting daily to try to iron out some unspecified issues. Cyman says he does not believe the project is in jeopardy. He says both parties realize the value of the new state-of-the-art transmission plant.

A Chrysler official tells us that the company is optimistic construction can resume as early as next week and not have any significant impact on the timeline.

The facility is scheduled to be finished in 2009 and the venture would employ about 1,400 people. Cyman also does not believe the construction suspension will impact the project's timeline.
