Conte Welcomes Second Bidder For Machiasport Refinery
Congressman Silvio O Conte welcomes a second bidder for a Machiasport Maine refinery and free trade zone. Atlantic World Port Inc of Boston seeks an oil import quota to refine and resell in the U.S., challenging Occidental Petroleum's similar plan. Conte urges a swift, fair comparison to lower New England fuel costs and curb shortages. A Tuesday fire at 48 Third Street caused minor damage from careless smoking.
