A Contra Costa Superior Court judge has lifted an injunction on Chevron's refinery modernization project, paving the way for work to start as early as mid-2016, a company spokeswoman said Tuesday. The planned improvements include safety upgrades to piping systems and a new and more efficient hydrogen plant that can process oil that has more sulfur -- increasingly common as the world's supply diminishes.

Joniec, 37, who works at the Free Library, said she now feels "silly" that she didn't realize how close they would live to the ancient, sprawling refinery on the banks of the Schuylkill, then owned by Sunoco and which today - with a new owner, Philadelphia Energy Solutions - is booming with crude oil fracked in North Dakota.
