In anticipation of increased demand for low-carbon, cleaner fuels, Contanda plans to expand its facility at the Port of Grays Harbor to store a portfolio of cleaner fuels including biodiesel, renewable diesel and ultra-low sulfur diesel, according to a statement released by the company.
Since 2009, Contanda has operated a facility to handle bulk liquid storage and shipping at the Port of Grays Harbor. The project would create as many as 100 jobs during construction and up to 20 permanent positions when operational, the company says.
“The combination of deep-water shipping terminals, rail service, experienced labor and available land for development of facilities is what first attracted Contanda to the area in 2009,” Cardillo said. “These attributes continue to provide an attractive development option for us as we look to expand our West Coast terminal presence.”
