August 30, 2012 [Jax Daily Record] - The permits show Milton J. Wood Co. as the contractor and Sunoco Logistics Partners LP as the developer. The City approved six construction permits for the project, whose collective project costs total $1.22 million.
Sunoco Logistics landed permits Friday for construction of a butane blending facility at the BP Jacksonville Terminal at 2101 Zoo Parkway in North Jacksonville.
Plans show foundations, modular buildings, pipes and supports, a tank and other equipment.
Sunoco Logistics Project Manager Paul Raetz told the Daily Record earlier in August that the company will build the project and run it with BP. He said the facility will be monitored from Sunoco’s office in Sugar Land, Texas.
Raetz said BP requested Sunoco to build the facility, although he did not have the total investment cost. He said construction should be completed by the end of the year.
Raetz, who is based in Reading, Pa., said the process involves injecting butane into the gasoline from Sept. 16-April 30 to meet environmental standards. Those are the coolest months of the year, he said.
