Official: Dallas company withdraws crude loading application

BERNALILLO, N.M. (AP) — A Dallas company has withdrawn an application to transfer crude oil from tank trucks to rail cars at an industrial site in New Mexico.

Bernalillo Mayor Jack Torres says Dallas-based NuDeveCo Midstream Development began the application process for usage of a mothballed American Gypsum drywall plant in Bernalillo but later backed away.

The Albuquerque Journal (http://bit.ly/TPZtkQ ) reports that American Gypsum had a contract with Fort Worth-based BNSF Railway Co. to use the siding.
