Chemical company that supplies Chevron Richmond Refinery fined for air violations

A Bay Area company that supplies chemical products connected to the Chevron Richmond Refinery has been fined $160,000 for committing multiple air quality violations during a 10-year period, authorities said Wednesday. The penalty came from violations that occurred between 2013 and 2023, according to the Air District. They said the violations included the failure of the company to monitor and record pressure across its venturi scrubber, an emergency abatement device; failure to abate internal combustion engine emissions; and the late reporting of violations.
