CalEPA/ Interagency Refinery Task Force (IRTF) Federal Region IX Regional Response Team July 2017 Update Paul Penn, CalEPA Poster from the 2017 International Oil Spill Conference

California Interagency Refinery Task Force (IRTF) New and Innovative Regulations and Resources for Petroleum Safety and Prevention and Emergency Preparedness and Response from the: California Interagency Refinery Task Force (IRTF) “ 2017-322- Following the Chevron Richmond refinery incident in 2012 California's Governor established the Interagency Refinery Task Force (IRTF) to address Safety and Prevention, Emergency Preparedness and Response, Enforcement Coordination, and Community Outreach. This poster highlights and provides the avenues to access the products of the IRTF that individuals and organizations can use for prevention of, and response to, petroleum events in refineries and pre/post refinery settings.”  “ Background 16 refineries, 14.5 billion gallons/yr August 2012 Fire at Chevron Richmond (Subsequent 2015 explosion at ExxonMobil Torrance) Governor’s Working Group issues Improving Public and Worker Safety at Oil Refineries: Report of the Interagency Working Group on Refinery Safety Governor designates California Environmental Protection Agency (CalEPA) to lead Interagency Refinery Task Force (IRTF) 2014 “The Chevron incident revealed shortcomings in the corporation’s emergency response protocol, difficulties in coordination among emergency responders, and challenges in communicating with surrounding communities regarding health risks and appropriate actions. Emergency response by refineries and state and local agencies will be improved through better coordination and other changes in emergency planning and preparedness programs… there is broad-based consensus for strengthening existing protocols for refinery-specific emergency response systems, particularly the need for increased communication and coordination.*“ “Members of local communities and the public should have consistent, accessible, adequate and timely information about refinery emissions and safety risks, preventive measures, and emergency procedures. There should be an easy mechanism for community participation in emergency planning and preparedness.*” “…refinery safety in California can and must be improved…. prevention of dangerous events at California refineries is complicated by the fact that refineries are highly complex environments requiring specialized expertise and information to detect potential hazards…. California refineries are aging; they are processing higher sulfur crude which increases corrosion; maintenance is often deferred; contractor training may not always be adequate; and regulatory agencies often do not have ready access to information they may need to assess safety. Ultimately, the goal is to incorporate principles of inherent safety more fully into the operations of California refineries; …this may be accomplished in various ways, and is an ongoing process.*” Community Outreach Safety Days/Forums/Summits CERT Modules for Refinery Communities Safety and Prevention Strengthen and align OSHA Process Safety Management (PSM) and EPA Risk Management Prevention (RMP, in CA CA Accidental Release Prevention, CalARP) Implementation Training, Inspection, and Enforcement Coordination Emergency Preparedness and Response Primary Zone (Alt Case?)
