Valero recently completed work on its NPDES pipeline replacement. Workers used mitigation techniques, including careful removal of vegetation, to minimize disturbance to wildlife and the installation of coir logs over the pipeline to help Salt Marsh Harvest Mice pass through while vegetation regrows.

Valero Benicia refinery recently participated in a corporation-wide United Way campaign and our employees received the 2nd place award. The award was a $10,000 check issued to a non-profit organization. Our employees voted for the Children’s Network as the beneficiary. Please click on the hyperlink below to learn more about this organization.

In February 2021, before vaccination clinics became commonplace, the Valero Benicia Refinery partnered with the City of Benicia and donated lunches for 150 volunteers who assisted 1,400 Benicia and Solano County residents (aged 75+) that received their first dose of the Moderna COVID-19 vaccination. The refinery continued this partnership in March and April 2021, when additional vaccine doses were administered.

We are proud to support the Benicia community and be a part of the effort to safely and efficiently administer vaccines - check out the City's coverage of the vaccine clinic using the below link.
