Massive fire, explosion rock Chevron refinery in El Segundo

Source: Los Angeles Times

An explosion and fire rocked a refinery in El Segundo on Thursday night, sending up massive flames that could be seen for miles.

The city of El Segundo said there was no public threat or evacuation orders, even as several local fire departments continued to work to suppress flames at the major Chevron refinery, located just off the Pacific Coast Highway.

By Friday morning, the fire had slowed considerably, but investigators were still trying to determine what caused it. No one was hurt, although the power of the blast rattled people in surrounding areas. As the sun rose Friday, a portion of the refinery still showed flames but there appeared to be little visible damage.

Officials said they were also monitoring air quality levels for pollution and dangerous contaminants.
