What does the Chevron El Segundo Refinery do to protect the environment? How is the Refinery regulated?
Chevron is required to follow numerous federal, state and local laws in order to protect human health and the environment. Petroleum refining is one of the most heavily regulated industries in the world. There are several local oversight agencies that we interface with on a frequent basis. For example, the South Coast Air Quality Management District has a designated inspector who is in our facility at least weekly to ensure that we are complying with air quality regulations. For more information on our environmental programs, see the Environmental Protection section of this website, or contact us.
