Fixes/Addresses/Summary/Motivation:
The goal is to convert current user input units (bbl/week) to bbl/day while maintaining the same time period discretization for the model optimization model. Our variables v_F_Piped and v_F_Trucked will now represent a rate bbl/day, but decisions will still be made on a weekly time scale.

Testing and Results
[binary] * capacity [bbl/week] * cost per capacity [$/bbl] = [$/week].
This is not technically right. This should be a straight dollar value. I converted units to per day for our unit conversion, I also updated the cost per capacity to be in units to [$/bbl/day] so we get to following:
[binary] * capacity [bbl/day] * cost per capacity [$/bbl/day] = [$].
Cost per capacity values from Karen, I believe, were already in [$/bbl/day], but capacity values decreased in the conversion, so the cost for the same capacity expansion has decreased by a factor of 7, changing the results slightly.
