The company resolved multiple violation notices for excess emissions at its Benicia Refinery, which were significant enough to require disclosure. This indicates a persistent pain point around environmental compliance and creates pressure to invest in emissions monitoring, control, and reporting technologies to avoid future penalties.
Filing excerpt
Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD) (Benicia Refinery). Between 2019 and 2023, our Benicia Refinery received various Violation Notices (VNs) from the BAAQMD for excess emissions, among other violations. While no single VN exceeded the materiality threshold, such VNs were aggregated and resolved with the BAAQMD during the second quarter of 2026.
