The Clean Fuels Project provides economic benefits to our local economy.
Creates over 100 permanent, high-wage jobs at the
refinery - jobs that pay over $70,000 a year.
Employs up to 1,200 workers
during the two-year
construction phase.
Pumps over $100 million into the local economy during
each year of construction.
Doubles the refinery's property
taxes - creating new revenues
for Kern County schools,
public safety programs
and road improvements.
The Clean Fuels Project is supported by many Kern County organizations and residents, including:
- Kern County Taxpayers Association
- Greater Bakersfield Chamber of Commerce
- Kern County Hispanic Chamber of Commerce
- Independent Oil Producers Agency
- Kern County Basque Club
- Tulare Chamber of Commerce
