Supe, building a refinery in this country is next to impossible.
Even after all of the impact studies and regulatory hurdles have been crossed, there can be decades of NIMBY and GreenPeace lawsuits. The refiners generally give up once the cost of the lawsuits has exceeded the expected profit from the proposed refinery. (And they ALWAYS do.)
