Richmond was becoming a jewel in the Bay Area; this explosion has set that way back.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gioia said the agreement between Richmond and Chevron was flawed in part because it left out local health officials and the air quality district, leaving the air monitoring to an independent contractor hired by Chevron.

Once the city approves a plan, the company will have 90 days to get the monitors operating.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In light of this incident,” Lindsay said, “it has hastened the process.”\u003c/p>\n\n",

The monitors are designed to detect chemicals such as metals, volatile organic compounds, hydrogen sulfide and a range of particulates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Richmond City Manager Bill Lindsay said Chevron has yet to produce a detailed plan for the project.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We haven’t received a comprehensive work plan from Chevron on who is going to monitor it, the specific locations for the monitors, how the data would be reported and the specific technology they will use,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lindsay said he now regrets not including a deadline for Chevron in the 2010 agreement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although there was no installation schedule as part of the 2-year-old agreement, Comey, the Chevron spokesman, said the company has been working with neighborhood groups to put a set timeline in place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Comey said neighborhood groups in Point Richmond and Atchison Village approved a timetable that calls for the equipment to be installed in early 2013. The neighborhood group in North Richmond is due to consider that plan at a meeting next month.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The Community Air Monitoring program that was agreed to in 2010 by Chevron and the City of Richmond is in the process of being implemented and is continuing to progress on schedule as we work with Neighborhood Councils in North Richmond, Atchison Village and Point Richmond,” he wrote in an email.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He added, “Once we have completed working with these local groups to ensure they are confident in the program, we will submit a revised work plan to the City of Richmond Planning Department for approval.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Michael Parker, a member of the Point Richmond Neighborhood Council, said the monitors Chevron agreed to install would have given residents more protections from harmful pollutants at the time of the fire.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We deserve more information, and there should be more monitoring,” said Parker, who is the editor of \u003ca href=\"http://www.richmondprogressivealliance.net/\">www.richmondprogressivealliance.net\u003c/a>, the website of a volunteer group in Richmond that supports progressive political causes. “But the focus should also be on prevention and making the refineries safer. Richmond was becoming a jewel in the Bay Area; this explosion has set that way back.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gioia said the agreement between Richmond and Chevron was flawed in part because it left out local health officials and the air quality district, leaving the air monitoring to an independent contractor hired by Chevron. Lindsay defended the arrangement, saying an outside contractor would be impartial.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The refinery fire is under investigation by a number of regulators, including the U.S. Chemical Safety Board.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The blaze has belatedly prompted the city to expedite the Chevron monitoring program. Once the city approves a plan, the company will have 90 days to get the monitors operating.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In light of this incident,” Lindsay said, “it has hastened the process.”\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

I appreciate that Chevron reps have apologized for last night's fire and explosions, but an apology is not sufficient... Who will hold Chevron responsible??\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On KQED's forum on Tuesday, residents were wondering just how much they might suffer in the future. They wanted to know the effects of smoke residue on them, their kids, their gardens. They wanted to know how they can protect themselves in the future.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So what exactly is the cost of being near a refinery? Everyone agrees the asthma rate around the refinery is high. According to the \u003ca href=\"http://www.ehib.org/page.jsp?page_key=125&year=2009&pmn=EVENT%3DASED_TYPE%3DR10K_RACE%3DTOTL_AGE%3DTOTL_SEX%3DTOTL_MODEL%3DCONV&agezip=TOTL&geog=ZIP\">California Department of Public Health\u003c/a>, in 2009 there were 123.35 asthma emergency visits per 10,000 residents in Chevron's Richmond zip code, compared to 47.99 for the state as a whole.\u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's hard to tease out the effects of oil refinery air pollution from air pollution in general and even harder to separate the pollution from other health risks -- such as poverty. \u003ca href=\"http://quickfacts.census.gov/qfd/states/06/0660620.html\">In Richmond, 16.4% of residents live in poverty, compared to 13.7% of the state of California\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, you can't tell those residents whose eyes were burning last night that their suffering is due to poverty. \"The smoke was kind of like an oily smell... and I have asthma really bad,\" Point Richmond resident Cheri Edwards told KQED on Monday night. \"And right now I’m at the bus stop trying to go to Kaiser because I have been having respiratory problems.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Greg Karras, a senior scientist at Oakland-based Communities for a Better Environment argues that the effects are obvious. \"People are experiencing headaches, weeping, trouble sleeping, and those are consistent with sulfur compound and hydrocarbons,\" he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So what's the solution?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the long term, the whole country has to switch to a healthier source of energy, says Karras, adding that Richmond is a leader in solar panel installation. But he admits that's going to take a while.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And in the meantime, a lot of other improvements are possible, he says. He points out that a fire broke out at the refinery in 2007 -- apparently in the same place, the crude oil processing unit. “Refineries don’t burn down the crude unit every five years. That is not normal for a refinery,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Forum, Heather Kulp, a Chevron spokesperson apologized for the fire. \"We're continually striving to improve our operational processes to minimize these incidents,\" she said. \"And we are effectively working with our regulatory agencies to make sure we put into process and into place all those procedures we need to make sure these types of things don't happen in the future.\" But she didn't offer any specifics on measures the refinery is taking to prevent such crises.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And Karras points out that fires are only one source of pollution from the refinery.

"content": "\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On KQED's forum on Tuesday, residents were wondering just how much they might suffer in the future. They wanted to know the effects of smoke residue on them, their kids, their gardens. They wanted to know how they can protect themselves in the future.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So what exactly is the cost of being near a refinery? Everyone agrees the asthma rate around the refinery is high. According to the \u003ca href=\"http://www.ehib.org/page.jsp?page_key=125&year=2009&pmn=EVENT%3DASED_TYPE%3DR10K_RACE%3DTOTL_AGE%3DTOTL_SEX%3DTOTL_MODEL%3DCONV&agezip=TOTL&geog=ZIP\">California Department of Public Health\u003c/a>, in 2009 there were 123.35 asthma emergency visits per 10,000 residents in Chevron's Richmond zip code, compared to 47.99 for the state as a whole.\u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's hard to tease out the effects of oil refinery air pollution from air pollution in general and even harder to separate the pollution from other health risks -- such as poverty. \u003ca href=\"http://quickfacts.census.gov/qfd/states/06/0660620.html\">In Richmond, 16.4% of residents live in poverty, compared to 13.7% of the state of California\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, you can't tell those residents whose eyes were burning last night that their suffering is due to poverty. \"The smoke was kind of like an oily smell... and I have asthma really bad,\" Point Richmond resident Cheri Edwards told KQED on Monday night. \"And right now I’m at the bus stop trying to go to Kaiser because I have been having respiratory problems.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Greg Karras, a senior scientist at Oakland-based Communities for a Better Environment argues that the effects are obvious. \"People are experiencing headaches, weeping, trouble sleeping, and those are consistent with sulfur compound and hydrocarbons,\" he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So what's the solution?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the long term, the whole country has to switch to a healthier source of energy, says Karras, adding that Richmond is a leader in solar panel installation. But he admits that's going to take a while.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And in the meantime, a lot of other improvements are possible, he says. He points out that a fire broke out at the refinery in 2007 -- apparently in the same place, the crude oil processing unit. “Refineries don’t burn down the crude unit every five years. That is not normal for a refinery,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Forum, Heather Kulp, a Chevron spokesperson apologized for the fire. \"We're continually striving to improve our operational processes to minimize these incidents,\" she said. \"And we are effectively working with our regulatory agencies to make sure we put into process and into place all those procedures we need to make sure these types of things don't happen in the future.\" But she didn't offer any specifics on measures the refinery is taking to prevent such crises.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And Karras points out that fires are only one source of pollution from the refinery. To improve these conditions, he and others have been calling on Chevron to update its equipment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Such efforts have already made a difference, he says. \u003ca href=\"http://www.baaqmd.gov/Divisions/Compliance-and-Enforcement/Refinery-Flare-Monitoring.aspx\">The Bay Area Air Quality Management District imposed limitations on flares\u003c/a> that burn off unwanted hydrocarbons. These flares are the biggest contributor to air pollution from the refineries, and they have been reduced by 10 fold, says Karras.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also emergency warning systems could be improved. Many people reported not getting calls to warn them to go indoors, or getting them after smoke was already spreading.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What else can be done for the citizens of Richmond?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Richmond City Council member Jeff Ritterman has a simple answer. \"Given the smoke inhalation injuries and the inconvenience and worry suffered by Richmond residents, I believe it would be appropriate for Chevron Corporation to compensate the Richmond community with a generous financial contribution,\" he said in an email.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Will Chevron be making such reparations?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Late on Tuesday afternoon, Chevron spokesman Lloyd Avram issued the following statement: \"A claims process has been set up through Crawford and Company and we intend to compensate our neighbors for medical and property expenses incurred as a result of the incident.
