Richmond refinery incident draws criticism

2014-12-20 12:05:42| Oil & Gas - Topix.net

Speculation grew Friday about whether the fire in the sky that emanated from Chevron's Richmond refinery on Thursday night was a "near miss" that easily could have resulted in a catastrophic accident on par with the massive blaze at the facility two years ago. The August 2012 accident sparked a federal investigation and sent thousands of residents to the hospital -- stretching a local health care network that is far less equipped to deal with such an emergency today.
