Document Description
BP West Coast Products LLC (BP) is proposing modifications to multiple Refinery process units at the Carson Refinery to: (1) attain compliance with SCAQMD Rules 1105.1, 1118, and 1173, and a settlement agreement between the SCAQMD and BP; (2) improve the safety at the Coker Gas Debutanizer, Fluid Catalytic Cracking Unit (FCCU), Fluid Feed Hydrodesulfurization Unit (FFHDS), vapor recovery systems and flare systems; and (3) improve operational efficiency of the FCCU, FFHDS, Alky Merox Unit, Alkylation Unit, Hydrocracker Unit, and Sulfur Plant. The Initial Study identified "air quality," "hazards and hazardous materials," "noise," and "transportation/traffic" as the areas that may be adversely affected by the proposed project. Impacts to these environmental areas were further analyzed in the Draft EIR. Based on the construction activities necessary to comply with the proposed project, the quantity of emissions due to construction may exceed the SCAQMD's daily significance threshold. The proposed project was also concluded to have potentially significant adverse hazards impacts. Noise and transportation/traffic impacts were concluded to be less than significant.
