Project Need Statement Sample Clauses

Project Need Statement. The Grafton and Upton Railroad Company (GU) is experiencing strong growth at their Hopedale Transloading railyard located in Hopedale, Massachusetts with the addition of new customers that are creating direct benefits to the Commonwealth in manufacturing and recycling through job creation, reduced landfill demand, the effective use of recycled materials, and tax revenue to the local community. To provide the Commonwealth with these benefits, the GU has several constraints in their Hopedale Facility that are prohibiting the timely growth needed to accommodate the railroad customers that are trying to expand services and benefits in Massachusetts. Due to this demand, GU has invested privately to accommodate their growth over the previous 6 months and to support their existing and new customers.

In addition, GU will be the only distributor of certain commodities transported by rail for the production of hand sanitizer in the Northeast which will address the COVID issues now and in the future. Prior to this week, this material was being shipped in tractor trailer trucks by our terminal operator Xxxx Rail Car from north and south Dakota. Our first rail loads began last week and will quickly grow by this fall to a quarter million gallons per week or 10 rail cars. The need for this IRAP is apparent in the increased demand and short of supply of hand sanitizer to fight uptick in COVID. By building tracks for the prepositioning and transloading of these railcars, over 15 Million gallons annually, we will m...
