TEPPCO will construct a 5.4 million-barrel facility for gasoline and distillates. The project includes the construction of 20 storage tanks, five 3.5-mile product pipelines connecting the storage facility to the Motiva refinery, 15,000-horsepower of pumping capacity, and distribution pipeline connections to the Colonial, Explorer, and Magtex pipelines. The storage and pipeline project is expected to be completed in mid-2009.
