Valero Bill Greehey Refinery In its leadership, however, Valero also has been thrust into the political debate over carbon emissions in 2009. Proposed legislation to saddle refiners with the lion’s share of emissions charges prompted sharp rebuke from Valero and from its CEO. In his testimony before a contentious Congressional committee in October 2009, Klesse urged U.S. policymakers to consider the devastating effects of proposed cap-and-trade legislation – particularly job losses in the refining industry – if the measure passed. Speaking on behalf of Valero and the National Petrochemical and Refiners Association (NPRA), which he chaired, Klesse warned members of the Environment and Public Works Committee that the proposed “Clean Energy Jobs and American Power Act” would have a staggering impact on the refining and petrochemical industry. “Plainly said, this legislation tosses away our nation’s competitive advantage, further damages our economy, destroys jobs and threatens our national security,” Klesse said. At press time, the legislation had not passed the Senate and will be revisited at a later date. In its lifetime, Valero has invested $19.5 billion to improve its refineries. Since 1997, the company has spent $5.4 billion on regulatory and environmental compliance work. And with more regulations and fuel specifications on the horizon, Valero expects to spend another $1.4 billion over the next several years. “Our company continues to be a contributor to society,” Klesse said. “We will continue to honor the commitments we have made to all of our stakeholders.” The safety of our employees, our operations and our communities is our highest priority. —— Valero Social Responsibility Report, 2009 Safety & Environmental 42
