  • Midwest and Rocky Mountain Transportation Fuels Markets
    Midwest and Rocky Mountain Transportation Fuels Markets March 2017 Independent Statistics & Analysis U.S. Department of Energy www.eia.gov Washington, DC 20585 This report was prepared by the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), the statistical and analytical agency within the U.S. Department of Energy. By law, EIA’s data, analyses, and forecasts are independent of approval by any other officer or employee of the United States Government. The views in this report therefore should not be construed as representing those of the U.S. Department of Energy or other federal agencies. U.S. Energy Information Administration | Midwest and Rocky Mountain Transportation Fuels Markets i March 2017 Introduction A new study commissioned by the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), find that changes in North American energy markets over the past decade have strengthened the supply of transportation fuels including motor gasoline, distillates, and jet fuel in the Midwest and Rocky Mountain regions. The development of Canadian oil sands crude and the emergence of light, tight crude oil in the United States have provided refiners in the Midwest and Rocky Mountain regions with access to abundant, cost-advantaged crude supply, providing opportunities to optimize crude slates and expand refinery capacity and utilization. Increased refinery production, combined with moderating demands for transportation fuels, has enabled suppliers in the Midwest and Rocky Mountain regions to reduce their dependence on inbound transportation fuels supply from the Gulf Coast, and has enhanced the redundancy and resiliency of their transportation fuels supply chains. Refinery capacity and production of transportation fuels in the Midwest and Rocky Mountain regions grew significantly between 2005 and 2015, and fuels markets and supply chains in these regions have become increasingly self-sufficient.

  • My Husband and I Live on and Farm the Very Land His Great Grandfather Purchased on February 4, 1892, and Are Proud to Live in Th
    I am asking for your support of this amendment to repeal the exemptions granted to Public Service Corporations in the Eminent Domain Bill, HF 1182. These companies should be held to the same standards as any other entity using eminent domain to procure property for their project. I am describing what may happen to us if the CapX 2020 line goes through our farm as a small snapshot of what is played out throughout Minnesota all too often. My husband and I live on and farm the very land his great grandfather purchased on February 4, 1892, and are proud to live in the house his grandfather started building in 1904. Our farm has been declared a century farm by the state of Minnesota. Over the years we’ve made many improvements to the farm and vintage home. We’ve also improved our 140 acres of farmland by tiling, maintaining grass waterways, contour plantings on hills, minimum tillage and added organic material to build and maintain topsoil. The farm, in return, has been good to us and we have been able to maintain a comfortable living farming. Our son has been operating the farm with us for the last several years. We make our living on this farm and have reinvested much of the proceeds back into the farm. We thought our farm was a very good investment and had planned to derive our retirement income from it. We have maintained a lifestyle which we felt would ensure good health well into our retirement. Now CapX is proposing to build part of their 247 mile double 345 kV transmission line from Brookings to Hampton through our area including through the middle of our farm fields with a mile of line through the middle of our fields.

    STATE OF MINNESOTA DISTRICT COURT COUNTY OF RAMSEY SECOND JUDICIAL DISTRICT Case Type: Civil (Consumer Protection) State of Minnesota, by its Attorney General, Court File No. ____________ Keith Ellison, Plaintiff, COMPLAINT vs. American Petroleum Institute, Exxon Mobil Corporation, ExxonMobil Oil Corporation, Koch Industries, Inc., Flint Hills Resources LP, Flint Hills Resources Pine Bend, Defendants. The State of Minnesota, by its Attorney General, Keith Ellison, for its Complaint against Defendants alleges as follows: INTRODUCTION 1. Minnesota is in the midst of a climate-change crisis. The world has already warmed approximately two degrees Fahrenheit (F) due to human-caused climate change; Minnesota has warmed even more. Warming will continue with devastating economic and public-health consequences across the state and, in particular, disproportionately impact people living in poverty and people of color. 2. The economic devastation and public-health impacts from climate change were caused, in large part, by a campaign of deception that Defendants orchestrated and executed with disturbing success. 3. Previously unknown internal documents were recently discovered that confirm that Defendants well understood the devastating effects that their products would cause to the climate, including Minnesota, dating back to the 1970s and 1980s. But Defendants did not ever disclose to the public—or to Minnesotans—their actual knowledge that would confirm the very science they sought to undermine. Instead, Defendants, both directly and through proxies, engaged in a public-relations campaign that was not only false, but also highly effective. This campaign was intended to, and did, target and influence the public, and consumers, including in Minnesota. 4. During the period when Defendants and their proxies were deliberately misleading Minnesotans about the consequences of using their products, Defendants realized massive profits through largely unabated and expanded extraction, production, promotion, marketing, and sale of their fossil-fuel products.
