Lawrenceville officials consider ethanol storage

Officials in Lawrenceville, Georgia, US, are considering a proposal to build three ethanol storage tanks at a railway property near the area.

The manpower currently required in the process of transferring ethanol shipments from trains to tanker trucks could be lessened by constructing storage tanks.

Lawrenceville has been a key part of transportation of ethanol across Georgia for the past three years and the recent 10% federal mandate for ethanol has led local officials to consider more efficient means of operating.
