Diesel Topping Refinery Proposal Approved For Devils Lake

Bakken.com is reporting:
A development agreement has been made between the Devils Lake City Commission and Eagles Ledge Energy, clearing a path for the construction of a 20,000 barrel-per-day refinery. After approval of the agreement, City Commissioner Rick Morse said, “I think this is one of the best things that’s ever happened to this community.”
The FNS reports that city officials worked with Eagles Ledge for over six months on the details of the agreement. The new refinery, located west of the city, will create roughly 100 jobs and will generate the city an annual revenue of $1.75 million.
