In the United States, there is strong pressure to prevent the development of new refineries, and no major refinery has been built in the country since <a class="" href='http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marathon_Petroleum_Company' title="Marathon Petroleum Company">Marathon's</a> Garyville, Louisiana facility in 1976. However, many existing refineries have been expanded during that time. Environmental restrictions and pressure to prevent construction of new refineries may have also contributed to rising fuel prices in the United States. Additionally, many refineries (more than 100 since the 1980s) have closed due to obsolescence and/or merger activity within the industry itself.
