Chevron wants to begin a billion-dollar construction project at its Richmond refinery after environmentalists sued to stop a similar plan a few years ago. The company points to the environmental impact report and says the new facility will be cleaner and safer, but community advocates worry the plan could increase pollution.

Guests:

Nicole Barber, spokesperson for Chevron in Richmond

Andres Soto, Richmond organizer for Communities for a Better Environment
