Emissions from Refinery Flares



The AQMD has responded to the concerns of Torrance residents about
emissions from flaring during external events like power failures on the
local grid and from flaring events by refinery activities.
Rule 1118, Control of Emissions from Refinery Flares, has been scheduled for
consideration during the month of June 2017 by the AQMD.

 The AQMD Quarterly Flare Emission Report for 2015 shows  the target
 SOx emissions of 54,717 pounds and the actual total SOx emissions
of 208, 496.9 pounds for 2015.  The 2016 report is not yet available.
