New Ethanol Facility Near Dumfries to Use Trains

DUMFRIES, Va. -- A new ethanol distribution center will be built just outside the Dumfries town limits.

Eco-Energy announced a partnership with NuStar on Tuesday that will bring an unloading, storage and outbound truck center to the area. The center will sit at Cockpit Point on railroad tracks owned by CSX and used by Virginia Railway Express trains.  NuStar Energy already has a facility on Cockpit Point Road that is accessible from Possum Point Road. 

Trains will deliver materials to the new facility, which is expected to store up to 155,000 barrels of ethanol and distribute 400,000 barrels of ethanol per month.
