The California Interagency Refinery Task Force will host a series of Refinery Safety Forums regarding recent efforts to better protect communities and the environment in and around oil refineries. Presenters will explain proposed amendments to California Accidental Release Prevention Program (CalARP) regulations to improve safety and prevention of incidents at refineries; and share results of the Refinery Air Monitoring Project Inventory Report that lists what air monitoring equipment is available to detect emissions from refineries. The meetings are open to the public, and a question-and-answer period will follow the presentations. Local forums in the South Bay area will be held as follows:
Monday, June 29th from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM at the United Steelworkers Union Hall, 1200 E. 220th St., Carson, CA 90745
Tuesday, June 30th from 5:30 PM to 7:30 PM at the Torrance Library, 3301 Torrance Blvd., Torrance, CA 90503
RSVP to these forums is requested (but not required) to refinery@calepa.ca.gov or (916) 327-9558.
