Consolidated Biofuels and IBF JV Announce Planned 150 MPGY Biodiesel Production/Crush Facility at Arkansas Port Location
June 27 2007 - 9:15AM
Business Wire
Yesterday, in cooperation and agreement with International Bio
Fuels Corp., Consolidated Biofuels, Inc., a Chicago-based
alternative fuels company (Pink Sheets:CSBF), announced through its
CEO, Daniel L. Honeycutt, that on November 28, 2006, IBF, on behalf
of the IBF/CSBF joint venture partnership, contracted with Chicot
County, Arkansas to build and operate a unique combination
biodiesel production and soybean oil crush facility located at the
Port of Yellow Bend in Arkansas. The planned production facility,
when fully operational in 2008, will have a designed capacity of
150 million gallons of biodiesel and 70 million bushels of soybean
oil crush annually. The facility will be located on 65 acres of
optioned acreage immediately within the Port of Yellow Bend�s
facilities. The Port of Yellow Bend is strategically located on the
Mississippi River, in the heart of the Soybean Belt in the
Mississippi Valley Corridor, just east of McGehee, Arkansas. The
proposed project�s low-risk and unique funding methodology will
initially utilize an Act 9 Public Bond issuance in the amount of
$78 million dollars that was approved to be facilitated within a
blended public/private funding arrangement. The initial and any
subsequent bond issuances will be processed and overseen by an
already- retained regional professional financial services
management group headquartered in Little Rock. The project�s
well-situated feedstock sourcing entity is confident that the
current and future agricultural and animal feedlot production
within the 100 mile radius around Yellow Bend will be sufficient to
supply the project�s crush oil requirement and also to regionally
utilize all of the crush mill�s meal production for use as a
premium animal feed source. Honeycutt also stated that, �I am more
than impressed by the leadership and strong vision demonstrated by
the public and private sectors in Chicot County and at the State
Capitol. Both Consolidated and IBF are looking forward to becoming
fully engaged as good corporate citizens of Arkansas and Chicot
County.� Mr. Marty Johnson, President of International Biofuels
(www.ibfco.com) stated, �This facility represents many months of
very intense work and planning to build what will become, when it
is fully operational, the largest combination feedstock and
biodiesel production facility of its kind in the world.� About
