ENERGY www.midcountycoop.com Page 3 FUEL STORAGE EXPANSION UNDERWAY In order to better serve our customers, we’re adding four fuel storage tanks to our main bulk storage facility in Cologne. After the expansion, we’ll be able to carry a total of 447,000 gallons (company wide). In addition to our Cologne location along High- way 212, we also have bulk storage sites on Highway 12 in Waverly and Long Lake, and at Highway 5 and 25 in Green Isle. Currently, we have 10 tanks in Cologne, with a capacity of 157,000 gallons. The expansion will allow us to store an additional 116,000 gallons. A large storage capacity allows us to have an adequate supply of fuel on hand during peak seasons. We’ll also have the ability to carry a wider variety of products, and keep a larger supply of alternative fuels and bio-die- sel. Mid-County Energy serves the agricultural, commercial, construction, and residential markets with a full line of gas and diesel fuels, propane, heating oil, and lubricants. With five bulk delivery trucks, our energy department is ready to supply all your bulk fuel needs. Give us a call at (952) 466-3720 to learn more.
