What are the health impacts from the refinery fire?\u003cbr>\nSmoke can cause throat and eye irritation, though it generally is not serious if the exposure is limited. These symptoms should resolve on their own after a few days for most people. Exposure to smoke can be more serious for people with pre-existing lung disease, such as asthma, and they may experience wheezing or have trouble breathing. As of August 8, more than 1,700 people have gone to the emergency room with nose, throat or eye irritation or respiratory issues, although none have been hospitalized.\u003c!--more-->\u003cbr>\n2. What chemicals were released into the air and how dangerous are they?\u003cbr>\nA variety of chemicals were released during the Chevron Richmond refinery fire. (See list of chemicals from each sample location.) Smoke particulates, which are what makes smoke black, were the major concern during this fire. Smoke particulates can irritate the throat, lungs and eyes particularly in those with pre-existing lung disease, such as asthma. Benzene, a chemical that can cause cancer, and other toxic chemicals can also be present in smoke. Test results from air samples that were taken by Contra Costa Hazardous Materials Response Team and staff from the Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD) were analyzed by BAAQMD and show the level of benzene and other toxic chemicals was below harmful levels during the fire and poses no risk of cancer. We do not have good measurements of the smoke particulates that impacted the community.\u003cbr>\n3. Is it safe to eat fruits and vegetables from my garden?\u003cbr>\nYes, it’s safe. It’s always a good idea to wash fruits and vegetables before eating. If you live in an area that was affected by the refinery fire, you can wash fruits and vegetables from your garden with soap and a mild detergent (like liquid dish soap). Washing your fruits and vegetables will remove any particulates that might have been on the surface from smoke. You also can peel off the outer layer of lettuce or peel your fruit if you are concerned.\u003cbr>\n4. Is our water safe for drinking?\u003cbr>\nThe tap water in Richmond is one of the best waters in the country and it is safe for you to drink and to give to your pets. The ground water from local wells in Richmond should not be used for drinking by you or your pets.\u003cbr>\n5. What should I do if there is soot on my car, patio furniture or outdoor play structures?\u003cbr>\nIf there is residue on your car, patio furniture or outdoor play structure wash it with a mild detergent and water.\u003cbr>\n6. Why was shelter-in-place lifted if the air sample results aren’t in yet?\u003cbr>\nThe shelter-in-place was lifted because the fire at Chevron was under control and our hazardous materials monitors confirmed there was no ongoing exposure.\u003cbr>\n7. What should I do if I am having trouble breathing or have burning eyes and a sore throat?\u003cbr>\nPeople who are experiencing trouble breathing should seek medical attention. If you have burning eyes and a sore throat contact your health care provider.\u003cbr>\n8. Is there any assistance in paying for my medical expenses related to this incident?\u003cbr>\nContact Chevron for information regarding payment of medical expenses or claims. You can reach them at 510-242-2000 for general information or at 1-866-260-7881 for claim information.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>And here’s the announcement from Chevron:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>Chevron will open a help center in Richmond on Friday, August 10 to assist residents who want to file claims related to the incident which occurred at the refinery this week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Help Center Location:\u003cbr>\nNevin Community Center\u003cbr>\n598 Nevin Avenue\u003cbr>\nRichmond, CA\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hours of operation:\u003cbr>\n9:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., Monday through Friday\u003cbr>\n8:00 a.m. to Noon, Saturday\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Live operators are also available 24 hours a day, seven days a week for those wishing to file a claim by phone.

These are not Chevron representatives; Chevron is not proactively contacting anyone regarding filing claims. There are only two ways a claim can be filed – by calling the above phone number or by visiting the help center located on Nevin Avenue.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The 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.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those who call the claim line will be asked a series of questions about their claim, which will then be routed to adjusters.

What chemicals were released into the air and how dangerous are they?\u003cbr>\nA variety of chemicals were released during the Chevron Richmond refinery fire. (See list of chemicals from each sample location.) Smoke particulates, which are what makes smoke black, were the major concern during this fire. Smoke particulates can irritate the throat, lungs and eyes particularly in those with pre-existing lung disease, such as asthma. Benzene, a chemical that can cause cancer, and other toxic chemicals can also be present in smoke. Test results from air samples that were taken by Contra Costa Hazardous Materials Response Team and staff from the Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD) were analyzed by BAAQMD and show the level of benzene and other toxic chemicals was below harmful levels during the fire and poses no risk of cancer. We do not have good measurements of the smoke particulates that impacted the community.\u003cbr>\n3. Is it safe to eat fruits and vegetables from my garden?\u003cbr>\nYes, it’s safe. It’s always a good idea to wash fruits and vegetables before eating. If you live in an area that was affected by the refinery fire, you can wash fruits and vegetables from your garden with soap and a mild detergent (like liquid dish soap). Washing your fruits and vegetables will remove any particulates that might have been on the surface from smoke. You also can peel off the outer layer of lettuce or peel your fruit if you are concerned.\u003cbr>\n4. Is our water safe for drinking?\u003cbr>\nThe tap water in Richmond is one of the best waters in the country and it is safe for you to drink and to give to your pets. The ground water from local wells in Richmond should not be used for drinking by you or your pets.\u003cbr>\n5. What should I do if there is soot on my car, patio furniture or outdoor play structures?\u003cbr>\nIf there is residue on your car, patio furniture or outdoor play structure wash it with a mild detergent and water.\u003cbr>\n6. Why was shelter-in-place lifted if the air sample results aren’t in yet?\u003cbr>\nThe shelter-in-place was lifted because the fire at Chevron was under control and our hazardous materials monitors confirmed there was no ongoing exposure.\u003cbr>\n7. What should I do if I am having trouble breathing or have burning eyes and a sore throat?\u003cbr>\nPeople who are experiencing trouble breathing should seek medical attention. If you have burning eyes and a sore throat contact your health care provider.\u003cbr>\n8. Is there any assistance in paying for my medical expenses related to this incident?\u003cbr>\nContact Chevron for information regarding payment of medical expenses or claims. You can reach them at 510-242-2000 for general information or at 1-866-260-7881 for claim information.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>And here’s the announcement from Chevron:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>Chevron will open a help center in Richmond on Friday, August 10 to assist residents who want to file claims related to the incident which occurred at the refinery this week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Help Center Location:\u003cbr>\nNevin Community Center\u003cbr>\n598 Nevin Avenue\u003cbr>\nRichmond, CA\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hours of operation:\u003cbr>\n9:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., Monday through Friday\u003cbr>\n8:00 a.m. to Noon, Saturday\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Live operators are also available 24 hours a day, seven days a week for those wishing to file a claim by phone. The number is 866-260-7881.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you have already filed a claim by phone, you do not need to visit the Help Center.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We understand that individuals may be calling members of the community about making claims. These are not Chevron representatives; Chevron is not proactively contacting anyone regarding filing claims. There are only two ways a claim can be filed – by calling the above phone number or by visiting the help center located on Nevin Avenue.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The 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.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those who call the claim line will be asked a series of questions about their claim, which will then be routed to adjusters. Adjusters are attempting to respond to all claims within three days. Chevron will strive to pay appropriate and reasonable claims, including out-of-pocket medical and property-damage expenses.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
