Phillips 66 closing California refinery

[Opelman]

I live near the refinery in question. Hopefully they sell, and don't close the place. It used to be owned by Union Oil. Every year, this time of year, they paint one of the tanks like a jack-o-lantern.

ExxonMobil sold their refinery just up the street, to a third party, a few years back. The big companies need to protect themselves from deep pocket grabs from the likes of Newsom and crew.

I remember the pumpkin tank as a kid. Didn't it get painted like a baseball every spring also?

I don't recall the baseball. Maybe, though.
