Construction on the storage facilities at Westview Terminal is now complete.

Construction is now complete on the storage and loading portion of Pinnacle Renewable Resources Westview Terminal, although there is still some work to be done before operations commence.

"The big mechanical work is done, the cranes are gone, we just have to build the rail connections and we will be ready to receive trains," said Pinnacle president and chief operating officer Leroy Reitsma.

"Things are still on track for the arrival of the first ship in late November. We're still on target for commissioning the terminal in the fourth quarter."

The first pour of concrete on the terminal took place on Oct. 31, 2012.
