TO OUR EMPLOYEES FOR THE MANY HONORS THEY’VE EARNED
Valero’s Three
Rivers refinery is
one of ten plants
in the Valero
system that has
earned Star Site
certification in
OSHA’s Voluntary
Protection
Program. This
process is so
tough that only
20 U.S. refineries
have achieved it,
and Valero owns
half of them.
