Giant Oull explores domestic oil push amid price surge
Giant Industries chief executive James Acridge argues for a national oil policy to reduce dependence on foreign oil. He notes the firm buys about 20,000 barrels of domestic crude for every 1,500 drilled, refines 25,000 barrels daily, and projects 100 new rigs in 1991 while expanding retail operations. He cites 1973 embargo and 1979 Iran cut as catalysts, cites oil at about $39-$40 a barrel, and calls for import taxes to raise foreign oil prices.

Officials in at least three western states warned ranchers and hunters to exercise caution after no livestock deaths were reported, while the Arizona Game and Fish Department warned in its Oct. 2 newsletter that the August issue advised removing cattle and sheep from public lands.
