To meet the requirement, Flint Hills has proposed building two new processing units that remove sulfur from petroleum products, three large storage tanks and expanding the cooling tower capacity. The construction project is not expected to increase crude-oil processing capacity at the large Pine Bend refinery southeast of St. Paul.
The company, which is owned by Koch Industries Inc. of Wichita, KS, hopes to have permits in place in time to begin construction this summer and to be operating in early 2006. It is seeking various federal, state and local air-emission, storm water and storage permits.
