Maritime Economic Development: Indiana – Jeffersonville, Kalama, Longview

Duke Energy Indiana has selected a 140-acre parcel of land inside the Port of Indiana-Jeffersonville in Clark County for the utility's 2015 Site Readiness Program. Based on consultant recommendations, Duke Energy will collaborate with Ports of Indiana to develop a strategy for providing water, sewer, natural gas and electricity at the site.

• The Port of Kalama has received a Pathways 2020 Community Champions Award for Economic Vitality. The award recognizes organizations that excel at creating jobs, employee wellness, training, employable skills, new or expanding business, transportation, financial security, reducing poverty and higher wages.
  
  
• More than a month since the Port of Longview announced a dormant Riverside Refining proposal to build a micro refinery, the company has returned with a revised project that made it past the port’s initial review stage. The $800 million venture would produce 45,000 barrels per day of refined product destined for Washington and Oregon markets, one-third of it renewable fuel.
