His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

The FDA, which learned of the treatment after inspections, said the injection could have caused inflammation and swelling of the heart.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The treatment belonged to San Diego-based company StemImmune Inc., and was given at California Stem Cell Treatment Centers in Rancho Mirage and Beverly Hills. U.S. marshals seized the product on Friday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The FDA will not allow deceitful actors to take advantage of vulnerable patients by purporting to have treatments or cures for serious diseases without any proof that they actually work,” FDA Commissioner Scott Gottlieb said in a statement. “I especially won’t allow cases such as this one to go unchallenged, where we have good medical reasons to believe these purported treatments can actually harm patients and make their conditions worse.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A complaint filed in federal court indicates the vials were shipped from outside California but does not provide more detail on the origin.

The letter to U.S. Stem Cell Clinic said that the company was offering unapproved stem cell treatments and that an agency inspection uncovered violations of manufacturing standards, including potential sterility issues. The company also tried to stop FDA inspectors from talking with employees, the letter says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You should take prompt action to correct these deviations,” says the letter, which was sent Thursday. “Failure to promptly correct these deviations may result in regulatory action without further notice. Such actions include seizure and/or injunction.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>StemImmune did not respond immediately to a request for comment. In a statement, U.S. Stem Cell Clinic said it had given the FDA “unrestricted access” since 2014 and that it followed the agency’s rules. But it also suggested that regulations could prevent patients from getting treatments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The safety and health of our patients are our number one priority and the strict standards that we have in place follow the laws of the [FDA],” it said, adding: “We have helped thousands of patients harness their own healing potential. It would be a mistake to limit these therapies from patients who need them when we are adhering to top industry standards.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The actions announced Monday are the latest salvo in a back-and-forth between regulators and the clinics that claim to be able to treat everything from paralysis to neurodegenerative diseases to erectile dysfunction. The clinics, \u003ca href=\"https://www.statnews.com/2016/06/30/stem-cell-clinics-proliferate/\">which have proliferated\u003c/a> around the country in recent years, have largely evaded regulation enforcement because they typically take a person’s own stem cells and inject them back into the same person, meaning the cells are considered “minimally manipulated.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The \u003ca href=\"https://www.statnews.com/2016/02/08/fda-crackdown-stem-cell-clinics/\">FDA has tried\u003c/a> at various times to regulate clinics offering unproven stem cell treatments more tightly and close down clinics that put patients at risk, but overall, their efforts have not amounted to much.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The \u003ca href=\"https://www.statnews.com/2016/09/09/stem-cell-fda-hearing/\">FDA has held meetings\u003c/a> about possibly regulating the therapies more like drugs, a move that has been backed by many academic stem cell experts who say that stem cell therapies, while holding great potential, are not ready to be used widely or outside regulated clinical trials. But clinic owners warn that the FDA could stamp out progress in the field and keep desperate patients from getting treatments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The government should not regulate our bodies. … I will always stand up for patient rights,” Kristin Comella, U.S. Stem Cell’s chief scientific officer, said at an FDA hearing months ago. (The FDA’s warning letter this month was addressed to Comella.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some experts have wondered whether the regulation-averse Trump administration would take further action against stem cell clinics. But in a statement Monday, Gottlieb said the FDA would be bolstering its enforcement as a way of “separating the promise from the unscrupulous hype” and that the agency would roll out a new “comprehensive policy framework” this fall to delineate the rules for stem cell treatments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There are a small number of unscrupulous actors who have seized on the clinical promise of regenerative medicine, while exploiting the uncertainty, in order to make deceptive, and sometimes corrupt, assurances to patients based on unproven and, in some cases, dangerously dubious products,” Gottlieb said. “These dishonest actors exploit the sincere reports of the significant clinical potential of properly developed products as a way of deceiving patients and preying on the optimism of patients facing bad illnesses. This put the entire field at risk.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Experts who study stem cell clinics and the regulatory landscape generally praised the FDA’s moves, but said that it was unclear what the enforcement actions and \u003ca href=\"https://www.fda.gov/NewsEvents/Newsroom/PressAnnouncements/ucm573443.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Gottlieb’s statement\u003c/a> meant for the field going forward.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The most important thing is that the FDA is now publicly making a commitment to discipline what has become an out-of-control area of fraudulent medicine,” said R. Alta Charo, a bioethicist at the University of Wisconsin Law School.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One part of Gottlieb’s statement that stuck out to Charo, she said, was when he signaled some flexibility in terms of the areas that are subject to FDA regulation, with the commissioner writing that “the FDA must advance an efficient and least burdensome framework” and establish “a regulatory structure that does not become a barrier to beneficial new innovation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s about a tone being set,” Charo said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Leigh Turner, a University of Minnesota bioethicist, said that from one standpoint, the FDA’s enforcement actions targeted the low-hanging fruit of the bad actors in the industry. Presumably any administration would want to seize unauthorized smallpox vaccine supplies, and the Florida clinic was the subject of lawsuits and media coverage in addition to the high-profile academic paper.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The larger question is going to be, what about the stem cell clinics … that are out there marketing therapies and charging people but don’t have a New England Journal of Medicine piece or lawsuits?” Turner asked. “Is it just going to be that after harm occurs that the FDA is going to do something? Or are we going to see a more systemic approach to this marketplace?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The action against the California clinics was solely based on the vaccine, noted Turner, who \u003ca href=\"http://www.cell.com/cell-stem-cell/abstract/S1934-5909(16)30157-6\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">has tracked\u003c/a> the growth of clinics around the country. It did not mention all the other diseases and conditions that the clinics have been marketing their unapproved stem cell therapies for.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">This \u003ca href=\"https://www.statnews.com/2017/08/28/smallpox-stem-cell-clinic/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">story\u003c/a> was originally published by STAT, an online publication of Boston Globe Media that covers health, medicine, and scientific discovery. \u003c/span>\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

The letter to U.S. Stem Cell Clinic said that the company was offering unapproved stem cell treatments and that an agency inspection uncovered violations of manufacturing standards, including potential sterility issues. The company also tried to stop FDA inspectors from talking with employees, the letter says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You should take prompt action to correct these deviations,” says the letter, which was sent Thursday. “Failure to promptly correct these deviations may result in regulatory action without further notice. Such actions include seizure and/or injunction.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>StemImmune did not respond immediately to a request for comment. In a statement, U.S. Stem Cell Clinic said it had given the FDA “unrestricted access” since 2014 and that it followed the agency’s rules. But it also suggested that regulations could prevent patients from getting treatments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The safety and health of our patients are our number one priority and the strict standards that we have in place follow the laws of the [FDA],” it said, adding: “We have helped thousands of patients harness their own healing potential. It would be a mistake to limit these therapies from patients who need them when we are adhering to top industry standards.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The actions announced Monday are the latest salvo in a back-and-forth between regulators and the clinics that claim to be able to treat everything from paralysis to neurodegenerative diseases to erectile dysfunction. The clinics, \u003ca href=\"https://www.statnews.com/2016/06/30/stem-cell-clinics-proliferate/\">which have proliferated\u003c/a> around the country in recent years, have largely evaded regulation enforcement because they typically take a person’s own stem cells and inject them back into the same person, meaning the cells are considered “minimally manipulated.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The \u003ca href=\"https://www.statnews.com/2016/02/08/fda-crackdown-stem-cell-clinics/\">FDA has tried\u003c/a> at various times to regulate clinics offering unproven stem cell treatments more tightly and close down clinics that put patients at risk, but overall, their efforts have not amounted to much.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The \u003ca href=\"https://www.statnews.com/2016/09/09/stem-cell-fda-hearing/\">FDA has held meetings\u003c/a> about possibly regulating the therapies more like drugs, a move that has been backed by many academic stem cell experts who say that stem cell therapies, while holding great potential, are not ready to be used widely or outside regulated clinical trials. But clinic owners warn that the FDA could stamp out progress in the field and keep desperate patients from getting treatments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The government should not regulate our bodies. … I will always stand up for patient rights,” Kristin Comella, U.S. Stem Cell’s chief scientific officer, said at an FDA hearing months ago. (The FDA’s warning letter this month was addressed to Comella.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some experts have wondered whether the regulation-averse Trump administration would take further action against stem cell clinics. But in a statement Monday, Gottlieb said the FDA would be bolstering its enforcement as a way of “separating the promise from the unscrupulous hype” and that the agency would roll out a new “comprehensive policy framework” this fall to delineate the rules for stem cell treatments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There are a small number of unscrupulous actors who have seized on the clinical promise of regenerative medicine, while exploiting the uncertainty, in order to make deceptive, and sometimes corrupt, assurances to patients based on unproven and, in some cases, dangerously dubious products,” Gottlieb said. “These dishonest actors exploit the sincere reports of the significant clinical potential of properly developed products as a way of deceiving patients and preying on the optimism of patients facing bad illnesses. This put the entire field at risk.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Experts who study stem cell clinics and the regulatory landscape generally praised the FDA’s moves, but said that it was unclear what the enforcement actions and \u003ca href=\"https://www.fda.gov/NewsEvents/Newsroom/PressAnnouncements/ucm573443.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Gottlieb’s statement\u003c/a> meant for the field going forward.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The most important thing is that the FDA is now publicly making a commitment to discipline what has become an out-of-control area of fraudulent medicine,” said R. Alta Charo, a bioethicist at the University of Wisconsin Law School.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One part of Gottlieb’s statement that stuck out to Charo, she said, was when he signaled some flexibility in terms of the areas that are subject to FDA regulation, with the commissioner writing that “the FDA must advance an efficient and least burdensome framework” and establish “a regulatory structure that does not become a barrier to beneficial new innovation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s about a tone being set,” Charo said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Leigh Turner, a University of Minnesota bioethicist, said that from one standpoint, the FDA’s enforcement actions targeted the low-hanging fruit of the bad actors in the industry. Presumably any administration would want to seize unauthorized smallpox vaccine supplies, and the Florida clinic was the subject of lawsuits and media coverage in addition to the high-profile academic paper.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The larger question is going to be, what about the stem cell clinics … that are out there marketing therapies and charging people but don’t have a New England Journal of Medicine piece or lawsuits?” Turner asked. “Is it just going to be that after harm occurs that the FDA is going to do something? Or are we going to see a more systemic approach to this marketplace?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The action against the California clinics was solely based on the vaccine, noted Turner, who \u003ca href=\"http://www.cell.com/cell-stem-cell/abstract/S1934-5909(16)30157-6\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">has tracked\u003c/a> the growth of clinics around the country. It did not mention all the other diseases and conditions that the clinics have been marketing their unapproved stem cell therapies for.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cp>The Valero Energy Corporation is facing a deadline in the coming days to respond to questions from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency about power issues at its Benicia oil refinery several months after an outage shut down the entire facility for weeks, leading to a major release of pollution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The EPA wants detailed information about the outages that have led to flaring events at the refinery over the last three years, and it wants inspection records for all of the facility's process units.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"EPA believes that much of the requested information is, or should be, readily available at the facility,\" wrote Enrique Manzanilla, director of the agency's Pacific Southwest Superfund Division, in a letter obtained by KQED.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The agency has asked Valero to explain its policies on handling outages, its risk management program and its flare system.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The company may not withhold any information from EPA on the grounds that it is confidential business information,\" the July 27 letter states. The EPA says Valero is required to respond to the agency within 30 days of receiving the letter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The outage initially sent a huge plume of smoke into the air, prompting evacuation and shelter-in-place orders. It would later lead to several local and state investigations, a multimillion-dollar lawsuit, a decrease in profits for Valero and a push for more refinery oversight by the city of Benicia.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A Valero official says the company is working on providing answers to federal officials.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We did receive the EPA request, and we intend to respond accordingly,\" Lillian Riojas, a Valero spokesman, said in an email.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The EPA's demands seem to go against the image the Trump administration has established as less interested in strong regulations on the fossil fuel industry.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This letter is a bit surprising given that Trump's EPA seems to be ignoring many public health issues to the delight of just about every polluter in the country,\" said Hollin Kretzmann, at the Center for Biological Diversity, in an email. \"The EPA must think Valero's practices are especially concerning if it's asking for this information.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, he says the agency is not being aggressive enough. \"This might be little more than a public relations exercise in the face of increasingly high-profile pollution problems at Bay Area refineries,\" Kretzmann said. \"There's no assurance that any of this information gathering will lead to meaningful action.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Daniel Kammen, a professor in the Energy and Resources Group at UC Berkeley who has long advocated for strong solutions to climate change, says the EPA's demand for information from one of the nation's largest oil companies in connection with a local emergency should be the kind of on-the-ground work the agency does, no matter who's in the White House.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Actual workers at the EPA have to continue their jobs irrespective of political interference,\" Kammen said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If the EPA did not act on its federal mandate to react to Valero's pollution release, it could be sued by environmental groups, according to Anthony Wexler, director of the Air Quality Research Center at UC Davis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Despite (EPA Administrator Scott) Pruitt's stance on climate and environment in general, in numerous decisions he has shied away from taking actions that will certainly lose in court,\" Wexler said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The agency's demands are part of a review of the refinery prompted by the May 5 outage, according to EPA officials who declined to comment further on the agency's letter to Valero.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They came a month after Valero filed a \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/06/30/valero-sues-pge-for-reckless-outage-at-benicia-refinery/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">lawsuit \u003c/a>against PG&E, blaming the utility for the power failure. The oil giant is seeking in excess of $75 million for damage to refinery equipment and lost revenue it says was the result of the shutdown that took place after PG&E \"shut off all electricity\" to the Benicia facility.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>PG&E has said the power failure was triggered by an \"inadvertent operation\" to protect electrical circuits. It has hired an engineering firm to review the cause. That company, Exponent, has yet to turn over a report to PG&E, according to utility spokeswoman Deanna Contreras.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The refinery released more than 80,000 pounds of sulfur dioxide from flaring in the days and weeks after the outage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In June, KQED revealed that the refinery released more than\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/06/12/valero-outage-sent-37-tons-of-toxic-gas-into-air-over-two-weeks/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> 74,000 pounds of the toxic gas\u003c/a> during 14 days of flaring after the outage, described as a \"huge amount\" by experts. That information came from a report the company filed with state officials and was obtained through a California Public Records Act Request.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Valero filed a separate report with the California Office of Emergency Services last month that showed the refinery released more than 8,200 pounds of sulfur dioxide on June 18 and 19.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The outage prompted several investigations, including one that revealed damage to part of the facility.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California’s Division of Occupational Safety and Health (Cal/OSHA) inspected the refinery after the power failure, closed its investigation the same month and decided not to issue any violations afterward.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the outage did damage one of the refinery's flares, according to Cal/OSHA. \"Attention was given to the South Flare, due to damage on flare tips and the dump stack,\" wrote Cal/OSHA safety engineer Sean Sasser in a notice after the inspection.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Bay Area Air Quality Management District issued \u003ca href=\"http://www.baaqmd.gov/~/media/files/communications-and-outreach/publications/news-releases/2017/2017_045_valeronovs_050917-pdf.pdf?la=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">several notices of violation\u003c/a> against the company due to the flaring in the days after the shutdown. Its investigation is ongoing, according to district spokesman Ralph Borrmann.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Solano County's Department of Resource Management also launched a probe. That review is ongoing and is expected to be completed in October, according to Terry Schmidtbauer, the department's director.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Experts say the outage led to an increase in the state's \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/05/10/after-valero-refinery-outage-three-probes-and-rising-gas-prices/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">gasoline prices\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And the shutdown hurt Valero's bottom line. Its lawsuit claimed that the company lost a \"substantial amount of profits.\" The company's \u003ca href=\"http://www.mysanantonio.com/business/eagle-ford-energy/article/Valero-2Q-profits-fall-32-7-percent-on-higher-11469580.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">second-quarter earnings\u003c/a>, released last month, fell by more than 30 percent, apparently because it took several weeks to get the refinery back online.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The outage has also prompted Benicia city leaders to consider increasing \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/05/23/valero-outage-prompts-benicia-to-consider-industrial-safety-ordinance/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">their oversight of the refinery\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/05/09/benicia-mayor-calls-for-key-emergency-improvements-after-valero-refinery-outage-and-flaring/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">improve how they communicate with residents\u003c/a> about emergencies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On the day of the shutdown, authorities imposed shelter-in-place evacuation orders for parts of the city, and at least a dozen people sought medical treatment for breathing difficulties.\u003c/p>\n\n",

It would later lead to several local and state investigations, a multimillion-dollar lawsuit, a decrease in profits for Valero and a push for more refinery oversight by the city of Benicia.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A Valero official says the company is working on providing answers to federal officials.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We did receive the EPA request, and we intend to respond accordingly,\" Lillian Riojas, a Valero spokesman, said in an email.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The EPA's demands seem to go against the image the Trump administration has established as less interested in strong regulations on the fossil fuel industry.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This letter is a bit surprising given that Trump's EPA seems to be ignoring many public health issues to the delight of just about every polluter in the country,\" said Hollin Kretzmann, at the Center for Biological Diversity, in an email. \"The EPA must think Valero's practices are especially concerning if it's asking for this information.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, he says the agency is not being aggressive enough. \"This might be little more than a public relations exercise in the face of increasingly high-profile pollution problems at Bay Area refineries,\" Kretzmann said. \"There's no assurance that any of this information gathering will lead to meaningful action.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Daniel Kammen, a professor in the Energy and Resources Group at UC Berkeley who has long advocated for strong solutions to climate change, says the EPA's demand for information from one of the nation's largest oil companies in connection with a local emergency should be the kind of on-the-ground work the agency does, no matter who's in the White House.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Actual workers at the EPA have to continue their jobs irrespective of political interference,\" Kammen said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If the EPA did not act on its federal mandate to react to Valero's pollution release, it could be sued by environmental groups, according to Anthony Wexler, director of the Air Quality Research Center at UC Davis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Despite (EPA Administrator Scott) Pruitt's stance on climate and environment in general, in numerous decisions he has shied away from taking actions that will certainly lose in court,\" Wexler said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The agency's demands are part of a review of the refinery prompted by the May 5 outage, according to EPA officials who declined to comment further on the agency's letter to Valero.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They came a month after Valero filed a \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/06/30/valero-sues-pge-for-reckless-outage-at-benicia-refinery/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">lawsuit \u003c/a>against PG&E, blaming the utility for the power failure. The oil giant is seeking in excess of $75 million for damage to refinery equipment and lost revenue it says was the result of the shutdown that took place after PG&E \"shut off all electricity\" to the Benicia facility.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>PG&E has said the power failure was triggered by an \"inadvertent operation\" to protect electrical circuits. It has hired an engineering firm to review the cause. That company, Exponent, has yet to turn over a report to PG&E, according to utility spokeswoman Deanna Contreras.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The refinery released more than 80,000 pounds of sulfur dioxide from flaring in the days and weeks after the outage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In June, KQED revealed that the refinery released more than\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/06/12/valero-outage-sent-37-tons-of-toxic-gas-into-air-over-two-weeks/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> 74,000 pounds of the toxic gas\u003c/a> during 14 days of flaring after the outage, described as a \"huge amount\" by experts. That information came from a report the company filed with state officials and was obtained through a California Public Records Act Request.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Valero filed a separate report with the California Office of Emergency Services last month that showed the refinery released more than 8,200 pounds of sulfur dioxide on June 18 and 19.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The outage prompted several investigations, including one that revealed damage to part of the facility.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California’s Division of Occupational Safety and Health (Cal/OSHA) inspected the refinery after the power failure, closed its investigation the same month and decided not to issue any violations afterward.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the outage did damage one of the refinery's flares, according to Cal/OSHA. \"Attention was given to the South Flare, due to damage on flare tips and the dump stack,\" wrote Cal/OSHA safety engineer Sean Sasser in a notice after the inspection.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Bay Area Air Quality Management District issued \u003ca href=\"http://www.baaqmd.gov/~/media/files/communications-and-outreach/publications/news-releases/2017/2017_045_valeronovs_050917-pdf.pdf?la=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">several notices of violation\u003c/a> against the company due to the flaring in the days after the shutdown. Its investigation is ongoing, according to district spokesman Ralph Borrmann.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Solano County's Department of Resource Management also launched a probe. That review is ongoing and is expected to be completed in October, according to Terry Schmidtbauer, the department's director.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Experts say the outage led to an increase in the state's \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/05/10/after-valero-refinery-outage-three-probes-and-rising-gas-prices/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">gasoline prices\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And the shutdown hurt Valero's bottom line. Its lawsuit claimed that the company lost a \"substantial amount of profits.\" The company's \u003ca href=\"http://www.mysanantonio.com/business/eagle-ford-energy/article/Valero-2Q-profits-fall-32-7-percent-on-higher-11469580.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">second-quarter earnings\u003c/a>, released last month, fell by more than 30 percent, apparently because it took several weeks to get the refinery back online.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The outage has also prompted Benicia city leaders to consider increasing \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/05/23/valero-outage-prompts-benicia-to-consider-industrial-safety-ordinance/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">their oversight of the refinery\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/05/09/benicia-mayor-calls-for-key-emergency-improvements-after-valero-refinery-outage-and-flaring/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">improve how they communicate with residents\u003c/a> about emergencies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
