Why would this be good? Who would it be good for? How would you get the
crude to Gary Indiana? You don't get it. It is not enviornmental regulation that is preventing new refineries from being constructed. Mike MU-2 "Jay Honeck" wrote in message news:LwwPe.279601$x96.198470@attbi_s72... We are dangerously low on refinery capacity, and current EPA regulations make it essentially impossible to build any more in the U.S. It's insane, but it's the law. So you wouldn't have any problem with a new refinery coming on-line up wind of your abode? Depends on how far upwind. One idea: If you've ever driven past Gary, Indiana, you would see mile after mile of abandoned steel mills (that employed thousands, and used to stink to holy heaven when I was a boy). That would be a perfect location for a new refinery or ten. It would be nice if our supposed "oil president" would issue an executive order mandating construction of new refineries, pronto -- environmental restrictions be damned. Of course, it would be tied up in the courts for the next 15 years, and nothing would get done. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |
