CHS opens Maine propane terminal

CHS Inc. has completed construction of a propane terminal in Biddeford, Maine, in time to meet growing demand for the home-heating season. The terminal is served by Pan Am Railways and has 180,000 gallons of storage and two loading bays. CHS began serving customers there Nov. 12.

Construction of the new terminal is one of several recent initiatives CHS Propane has taken to increase its supply assets, including securing a multiyear marketing agreement for more than 80 million gallons a year from a large gas plant facility in North Dakota, as well as securing additional company-owned railcar loading assets to strengthen the company’s overall supply capability.
