June 4, 2001High Plains Announces Expiration of Agreement to Sell New Mexico Facility High Plains Corporation has announced that it will retain ownership of its Portales, New Mexico facility as the agreement to sell the plant to Natural Chem Industries, LLC of Houston, Texas has expired.
After several extensions, High Plains said that the buyer was unable to complete the requirements to close the agreement by the designated expiration date of May 31, 2001.
``We look forward to continuing to own and operate the plant,'' said Gary Smith, president and CEO of High Plains, ``and are pleased to retain the 14 million gallons per year that it produces during this period of high interest in alternative fuels. The current economics in the ethanol industry, with product prices near historic highs and continued favorable pricing for our raw materials, have helped Portales to contribute positively to our overall results during this past fiscal year. With profit margins expected to continue favorable for all of our facilities, Portales should add importantly to our profitability for the foreseeable future.''
Based in Wichita, Kansas, High Plains Corporation is among the nation's largest producers of ethanol. The company operates facilities in Colwich, Kansas, York, Nebraska, and Portales, New Mexico.
