N 23 (- ) , : Apart from tourism, there are other industrial activities in the West Coast National Park. NHOC IN WEST COAST REFINERY* SHOCK 1. The National Hermosa Oil Corporation (NHOC) officially announced yesterday that it intends to construct a $1 billion oil refinery on the west coast of the island. The project is expected to take five years to complete, with 2,000 workers involved in its construction. The refinery when finished will employ 500 staff, easing the employment situation on the west coast, where tourism is at present the only industry. 2. Mr Ken Woo, president of NHOC, said at a press conference officially announcing the project, "The construction of the refinery is a vital step forward in the development of the economy of the island. It will bring much-needed jobs to the west coast and act as a motor for economic activity there." 3. The refinery is to be built 120 km north of Newport, near the small resort of Puerto Escondido, in the West Coast National Park. Ms Lucia Buenavista, a spokeswoman for the Ministry of the Environment, said that it "did not foresee difficulty" in giving planning permission for the project. She said that the ministry had been assured by NHOC that environmental controls would be extremely strict and that danger of oil pollution from the refinery was "minimal". 4. Local residents are less optimistic. The head of the environmental group Green Action, Mr Charles Chang, says that the prospect of large oil tankers unloading their cargo at the port is "alarming". "We don't believe what NHOC and the Ministry of the Environment are telling us. We've already seen the damage that oil pollution can do in other parts of the world. And the idea of building the refinery in a national park is ridiculous. What is the point of national parks if they can build oil refineries in them?" ____________________________ * refinery
