The <strong>Valero</strong> Wilmington Refinery was commissioned in 1969 and has undergone three major expansions to become a fully integrated<br />
refinery. It also has completed several upgrades to meet clean-fuel standards. Acquired from Ultramar Diamond Shamrock in<br />
2001, the <strong>Valero</strong> Wilmington Refinery processes a blend of California and foreign crude oil, as well as unfinished feedstocks from<br />
local and foreign sources. The refinery also produces 15 percent of the asphalt supply in southern California. It is VPP Star Site<br />
certified for safety and sits on a compact 120-acre site near Los Angeles.<br />
