Description Skagit County and the Washington State Department of Ecology developed a Draft Environmental Impact Statement for a proposed Shell Anacortes Rail Unloading Facility. Equilon Enterprises, LLC, dba Shell (the Applicant), had planned to construct and operate a crude-by-rail unloading facility at the existing Shell Puget Sound Refinery (PSR) in Anacortes, Washington.

The Applicant would have built a rail spur from the existing BNSF Railway Anacortes Subdivision onto the Shell PSR property to accommodate 6 trains per week transporting crude oil from Montana and North Dakota. Each unit train would have carried approximately 60,000 to 70,000 barrels of crude oil.
