I Singapore understand that the Board intends to consider adopting the proposed ISO Walnut creek amendments on November 12, 2002. I request that this letter and its Washington attachments be made part of the record of proceedings in this matter. We received, on November 2, a revised version of the ordinance that neither addresses the CEQA issues identified in my October 28 letter nor responds to the concerns of our clients, industry groups, contractors and others. If anything, the revisions compound the problems identified in my letter and increase the burden on the refineries by requiring them to maintain comprehensive records "documenting compliance" with the provisions of the ordinance. The shifting nature of the proposed ordinance makes it difficult to assess the full range of potential impacts and provide comprehensive comment. However, the same fundamental problems identified in my October 28 letter remain, and the proposed ordinance also conflicts with several provisions of the U.S. and California Constitutions. For the reasons set forth below, on Contra Cn�,. —:;ounty Board of Supervisors November 11, 2002 Page 2 behalf of our clients, we object to the proposed ordinance and urge the Board not to adopt it. A. Adoption of the proposed ordinance would violate CEQA For the reasons set forth in detail in my October 28 comment letter addressed to Michael Henn, adoption of the ordinance in reliance on the Negative Declaration would violate CEQA. Attached are numerous declarations from Bingham rMcCutchen LLP refinery planners, supervisors, maintenance and safety personnel, contractors bingham corn and workers, as well as independent experts in industrial worker safety and refinery planning, maintenance and safety. This evidence—together with the evidence cited in my October 28 letter and other materials in the record— overwhelmingly demonstrates the existence of a fair argument that significant environmental impacts may occur if the ordinance is adopted as proposed. These impacts, and the supporting evidence, are summarized below. 1. Safety Impacts The Negative Declaration concludes that the proposed ordinance would result in the use of better-trained workers "which would reasonably have the effect of reduced incidents involving hazards and release of hazardous materials." (Neg. Decl., p. 10). If this is the case, the reverse must also be true: If the effect of the ordinance is to decrease worker safety, negative environmental impacts may occur as a result of increases in the risk of incidents involving hazards and release of hazardous materials. The evidence in this matter—as distinct from the unsupported assumptions in the Negative Declaration—demonstrates that the effect of the proposed ordinance will be to decrease safety at refineries. As discussed in the attached declaration of Dr. Jay Finkelman—an industrial and forensic psychologist and Certified Professional Ergonomist—the requirement that refinery employees be trained in programs approved by the California Apprenticeship Council CCAC") imposes an artificial restriction unrelated to the ability to perform and be qualified for refinery work and is far more likely to be counterproductive to any legitimate safety objective. (Finkelman Decl. 117- 18) By limiting the pool of qualified workers, the proposed ordinance will force employers to dig deeper into the pool of potential applicants, which typically entails a degradation of the average skill level of the work force. (Id. at¶21) Restricting access in this manner"will be detrimental to the qualification process and is likely to impede overall safety" at refineries. (Id. at¶22) Contra C& _--.�ounty Board of Supervisors November 11, 2002 Page 3 These conclusions are buttressed by the attached declarations from refinery planners, safety personnel and contractors -- all of whom have substantial experience in refinery turnarounds and maintenance. As these declarations establish, because of the specialized nature of the work, refinery turnarounds require highly skilled, specialized labor with substantial expertise, experience and specific safety training. (See, e.g., Spencer Decl. ,I T 6) Many—and probably the majority—of the workers with these specialized skills, experience, qualifications and safety training needed for refinery turnarounds Bingh°r'Mccurchen LLP reside outside of California and/or are not apprentices or graduates of CAC- b'ng"om.`orn approved programs. (Id. TT 7-8) Forcing refineries to employ workers with CAC-approved training, and further limiting the labor pool by requiring that the available labor supply within Solano, Contra Costa, and Alameda Counties be exhausted, will (1) automatically disqualify the majority of workers with the most expertise, experience and safety training in refinery turnarounds, and(2)require use of workers with no training, experience or qualification to work on refinery turnarounds and no specific qualifications for such work. This abrupt substitution of generically trained workers with minimal or no refinery experience for a work force consisting of highly trained, specialized and experienced workers will inevitably decrease rather than increase safety. Numerous studies, reports and articles have demonstrated the link between experience and safety in the petrochemical industry. As noted in my October 28 letter, the same link is emphasized in some of the "Sources" cited in the Initial Study. See, e.g., Job Safety and Contract Workers in the Petrochemical Industry [Rebitzer 1995]. The attached declarations from refinery personnel and independent experts likewise substantiate the strong connection between ' Mr. Spencer is a chemical engineer and regional Vice President for the TIMEC Group of Companies. Both Mr. Spencer and TIMEC have substantial experience with refinery turnarounds. TIMEC has been performing both routine and turnaround maintenance in.Bay Area refineries for over thirty years and Mr. Spencer has worked in refineries over 20 years. (Spencer Decl., 1) Contra Co. "ounty Board of Supervisors November 11, 2002 Page 4 refinery experience and safety. See, e.g., Finkelman Decl., TT 21-22; Elmore Decl.,2 TT 4-5; Wann Decl.,3 T 3. At a minimum, therefore, the evidence before the County supports a fair argument demonstrating the existence of potentially significant environmental impacts from incidents involving hazardous materials. Accordingly, CEQA prohibits the County from adopting the proposed ordinance on the basis of the Negative Declaration. Singhcm McCutchen ivF b$naham.c0m 2. Delay Impacts The evidence also demonstrates that the ISO amendments will likely result in substantial delays in scheduled refinery turnaround projects. As described in the Declaration of Joel Elmore,refinery turnarounds are typically scheduled well in advance -- up to 2 years ahead. (Elmore Decl., ¶ 10; see also Spencer Decl., T 11). This is partly due to the limited availability of qualified contractors and workers, tight schedules and safety concerns. (Id.) Contractor selection is critical in planning a turnaround. (See Declaration of John Sakamoto, P.E.,4 at 18). Factors used in selecting a contractor include: past 2 Mr. Joel Elmore is the Maintenance Manager for the Golden Eagle Refinery in Martinez, California. In this position, he is responsible for Turnaround and Routine Maintenance activities. He has worked in the refining industry since 1968 and as a Refinery Maintenance Manager for the last 15 years in four different refineries, three of which are in California. 3 Mr. Jack Wann is the General Manager of Encompass Industrial Services and has over 25 years' experience in the refinery industry. He has worked in most of the refineries in Contra Costa County as well as Solano County for over 20 years. 4 Mr. Sakamoto is a registered professional engineer and Senior Vice President for Eichleay Engineers Inc. of California. He has worked for over 22 years in petrochemical industries, and has acted in the capacity of design engineer, project engineer, and project manager for numerous projects in that industry, including major refinery maintenance and turnarounds. He is the author and developer of Eichleay's PRISM Program for Process Responsibility in Safety Management and manages Eichleay's risk management services provided to clients—including refineries -- in California, other states, and overseas. (Sakamoto Decl., ¶2) Contra Ccs.` lounty Board of Supervisors November 11, 2002 Page S and present safety record, contractor experience and expertise, management team qualifications, PSM (Process Safety Management) and RMP (Risk Management Program) compliance, workforce training, workforce availability, planning and scheduling capabilities, and cost effectiveness. (Id.) Refineries go through involved contracting practices to ensure that qualified contractors meet these requirements. (Id.) For these reasons, turnarounds cannot generally be performed or rescheduled on short notice. (Elmore Decl., ¶ 10) If a refinery turnaround is delayed and/or must be rescheduled because Bingham McCutchen LLP qualified contractors or workers are unavailable, it can take months, if not a bingham.com year, before the turnaround can go forward. (Id.). Substantial maintenance activities and at least one of the currently scheduled turnarounds at a Contra Costa refinery will almost certainly have to be delayed and rescheduled as a consequence of the proposed ordinance. (Spencer Decl. at¶¶ 11-12). Contractors and workers scheduled to perform this work will no longer be able to do so because the workers are not residents and are not hired out of hiring facilities or offices of Contra Costa, Alameda, or Solano Counties and have not been trained by CAC-approved apprenticeship programs. (Id.). Additionally, as discussed in my October 28 letter, it is common during a turnaround to identify additional maintenance work that needs to be undertaken that is not within the initial scope of work. (See Sakamoto Decl., T 21). Such maintenance work frequently requires specialty labor. Given the significant restrictions imposed by the ordinance on the pool of qualified labor, it is unlikely that such labor could immediately be secured consistent with the terms of the proposed ordinance, resulting in delays in resumption of refinery operations. (Id.) Also, such unavailability in the event of any unanticipated outage or unscheduled maintenance -- whether or not in the context of a turnaround-- could significantly extend the shutdown period. (Id. ¶¶ 21, 23) 5 Major turnarounds require numerous crafts and specialty contractors. (Sakarnoto Decl., ¶9) Craft contractors include machinists, equipment operators, electricians, iron workers, pipefitters, welders, boilermakers, insulation workers, and others; specialty contractors include millwrights, catalyst installers, hydroblasters, tank cleaning workers, scaffold erection, computer programmers, and equipment specialists. (Id.). Refineries must contract work to firms and workers who meet the selection criteria described above to ensure work integrity and safety. (Id.). Contra Co,....__.`ounty Board of Supervisors November 11, 2002 Page 5 Delays will also result from the confusing and possibly conflicting provisions of the proposed amended ISO. Section II(3)(B) of the proposed ordinance appears to give contractors some flexibility in hiring workers if, after two days of attempting to hire workers out of Contra Costa, Alameda or Solano Counties who are enrolled in or have graduated from CAC-approved programs, they are unable to find sufficient numbers of available workers. However, the proposed ordinance is ambiguous as to what requirements a contractor must meet after this two-day period. Even assuming this provision Bingham McCurchen «p allows contractors to hire any worker after two days, regardless of their bingham.com residence or CAC-affiliation, refineries still will be responsible for ensuring that at least 50% of their contracted workforce in each apprenticeable occupation are graduates of CAC-approved programs. Typically, refineries sign contracts with contractors for projects first, and then contractors select their workforce, often doing so in stages (Elmore Decl., ¶ 1 (b)). Depending on what two days the contractors begin hiring for certain positions, the CAC-affiliated percentage of their workforce for a project will vary. Thus, it may be some time before refineries can determine what percentage of a contractor's workforce will be graduates of a CAC-approved program. The fact that the percentages will be unknown and unpredictable when refineries sign contracts with the contractors makes it difficult, if not impossible, for refineries to comply with the 50%requirements. Will refineries need to hire one contractor at a time, waiting until the workforce of one contractor is solidified before hiring the next? Will refineries need to terminate contracts depending on a contractor's actual percentage breakdown? Either way,requiring refineries to ensure that 50% of each apprenticeable occupation are graduates of CAC-approved programs will, at the very least, cause considerable disruption and delay. As set forth in the Declaration of John Sakamoto, these maintenance delays and extended shutdowns of refinery units could result one or more of the following significant environmental impacts: 1. Delays in maintaining units that limit Nitrous Oxides (NOx), such as Selective Catalytic Reduction(SCR's) and ultra low NOx burner systems in furnaces and boilers can result in excess NOx emissions into the atmosphere over the permitted limits allowed by the Bay Area Air Quality Management District(BAAQMD). A variance would need to be obtained from the BAAQMD to allow the unit to continue operation until the necessary maintenance work could be completed. During this Contra Cod_ _Zounty Board of Supervisors November 11, 2002 Page 7 period, there would be significantly increased emissions (up to many tons) of NOx per clay. 2. Cascade ripple effects can affect other units dependant on a specific unit and further jeopardize the safe operation of the refinery. For example, a shutdown of the SCR of a Cogeneration Power Generation Unit could require the shutdown of the entire power train thereby Bingham McCwchen LLP jeopardizing the entire refinery's power grid and bjngham.Wam emergency power system. 3. Delays in maintaining critical units that limit Sulfur Dioxides and Sulfur Trioxides can result in excess sulfur oxide emissions into the atmosphere over the permitted limits allowed by the BAAQMD. 4. Delays and shutdowns could restrict the supply of gasoline and diesel fuels to all of Northern California and throughout the State. Because the State of California requires unique fuel specifications for both gasoline and diesel in order to meet air quality standards, Californians rely on only 13 in-state refineries to produce most of its gasoline and fuel. Contra Costa County's four refineries alone account for approximately one-third of the gasoline and one-half of the diesel for the entire State of California. 5. Delays in refinery turnarounds could also delay critical or emergency maintenance on environmental abatement devices, thereby creating operational risks and requiring operators to shut down the devices and other affected units. 6. Delays in required repairs and maintenance work could cause the refinery to run out of storage capacity for "residuals,"the heavier parts of the barrel of crude oil. This would make it necessary to transport the excess away from the refinery, thereby significantly increasing the risks and environmental hazards of transporting these materials by ship, truck., rail or pipeline. 7. Delays could similarly result in the shutdown of refinery process units, including units that handle hazardous Contra Coy ;'ounty Board of Supervisors November 11, 2002 Wage 8 wastes. This would create a need to transport hazardous wastes generated by the refinery off-site for disposal, thereby creating additional transportation risks and environmental hazards. Delays could also cause the shutdown of acid regeneration facilities, thus requiring the refinery to transport spent acids to as far as away as Southern California, again increasing transportation risks. Bingham McCutchen LLP bingham.cam (Sakamoto Decl., ¶T 23a- g) In sum, there is substantial evidence supporting a fair argument that proceeding with adoption of the ordinance in its current form will result in numerous potentially significant environmental impacts, including ❑ a reduction in worker safety and consequent increase in the risks of accidents involving hazards and hazardous materials; ❑ increased production and use of non-reformulated gasolines (increasing automobile emissions); ❑ transportation risks and environmental hazards resulting from increased transportation of fuels,residuals, spent acids and other hazardous wastes; o increases in emissions of oxides of nitrogen and sulfur dioxide. This evidence is based upon substantial factual data and expert opinion. By contrast, the conclusions in the Negative Declaration that the ordinance will lead to greater safety and hence decrease potential environmental impacts are unsupported by evidence and based only on speculation or conjecture. For 6 "Substantial evidence" under the applicable standard means "enough relevant information and reasonable inferences from this information that a fair argument can be made to support a conclusion, even though other conclusions might also be reached . . . ." 14 Cal. Code R.egs. § 15384(a). Substantial evidence "includes fact, a reasonable assumption predicated upon fact, or expert opinion supported by fact." Pub. Res. Code § 21080(e)(1); 21082.2(c). Contra Co,.wy,1"ounty Board of Supervisors November 11, 20012 Page 9 these reasons, the Board will act in violation of CFQA if it proceeds with the adoption of the ordinance as currently proposed. B. The Proposed Ordinance Discriminates Against Nonresidents in Violation of the Privileges and Immunities Clause The proposed revisions to the ISO violate the Privileges and Immunities Bingham McCutchen LLP Clause of the United States Constitution by discriminating against the hiring of bingham.cam workers from outside California. U.S. Const., Art. IV, Sec. 2. The Privileges and Immunities Clause provides that: "Citizens of each State shall be entitled to all Privileges and Immunities of Citizens in the several States." U.S. Const., Art. IV, Sec. 2. This clause establishes a norm of comity with respect to how States must treat each other's residents. Hicklin v. Orbeck, 437 U.S. 518, 523- 24 (1978). Under this clause, the terms"citizen" and"resident" are interchangeable. Id. at 524. Both local and state regulations are equally subject to the Privileges and Immunities Clause to the extent they discriminate against out-of-state residents. United Bldg& Const. Trades Council v. Mayor & Council of Camden, 455 U.S. 208, 217-18 (1984). Thus, the proposed ordinance, if passed by the Board of Supervisors, must comport with the Privileges and Immunities Clause. The Privileges and Immunities Clause prohibits discrimination against nonresidents regarding a privilege and immunity protected by the Clause without a substantial reason for the discrimination and without a substantial link between the government's objectives and the discriminatory treatment. United Bldg& Const. Trades Council, 465 U.S. at 218-223;A.L. Blades & Sons, Inc. v. Yerusalim, 121 F.3d 855, 870 (3rd Cir. 1997). Whether the Privileges and Immunities Clause is violated involves a two-step inquiry. United Bldg& Const. Trades Council, 465 U.S. at 218: (1) whether the legislation burdens a privilege and immunity protected by the clause, and, if so (2) whether there is a substantial reason for the difference in treatment. Id. at 218, 222. Under the second step, a court must both evaluate whether a substantial reason exists and whether the degree of discrimination bears a close relationship to the reason. Id. at 222. 1. The Proposed ISO Discriminates Against Nonresidents on a Fundamental Privilege and Immunity The proposed ordinance discriminates against nonresidents with respect to a fundamental privilege and immunity protected by the Clause—the right to private employment. "[T]he pursuit of a common calling is one of the most Contra Co, ;ounty Board of Supervisors November 11, 2002 Page 10 fundamental of those privileges protected by the Clause." United Bldg& Const. Trades Council, 465 U.S. at 219. The opportunity to seek employment with private employers, in particular, "is sufficiently basic to the livelihood of the nation." 1d. at 221 (quotations omitted); see also Hicklin, 437 U.S. at 525 ("discrimination against nonresidents seeking to ply their trade, practice their occupation, or pursue a common calling with the State" is prohibited by Privileges and Immunities Clause). The proposed changes to the ISO burden nonresidents' opportunities to be hired by contractors for work at oil refineries Bingham McCutchan LLP in Contra Costa County. bingham.com The proposed ISO discriminates against nonresidents of California in two ways. First, the proposed ISO requires contractors performing work at oil refineries to hire "trained" workers from hiring facilities or offices in Contra Costa, Alameda, and Solana Counties.' A contractor may only hire residents from outside of these three counties if"trained" workers from these counties are not available. Such preferential hiring of residents over nonresidents is overt discrimination covered by the Privileges and Immunities Clause. Hicklin, 437 U.S. at 521 (invalidating Alaska law requiring qualified Alaskans to be hired over nonresidents if available). Even if a contractor is able to hire outside of these three counties, he or she is restricted to hiring journeymen and apprentices who were trained or are being trained in California, in apprenticeship programs approved by CAC.8 In Initially, the Proposed Ordinance defines "trained worker" as one who has graduated from an apprenticeship program approved by the CAC. After three years, the definition of"trained worker" includes apprentices of CAC- approved programs and potentially allows journeymen trained elsewhere to test-in. 8 During the first three years after the ordinance is adopted, refineries must ensure that at least 50 percent of their workforce work for a contractor who has executed an apprenticeship agreement with a CAC-approved apprenticeship program or are graduates of a CAC-approved apprenticeship program. After three years, 100 percent of such workers must be apprentices in or graduates of CAC apprenticeship programs, except for a narrow"test-in" exception applicable only to journeymen. The test would be administered by CAC- approved apprenticeship programs, and these programs have no incentive to offer a test to outside journeymen. Assisting outside journeymen would only increase competition with their own journeymen and program. A test (Footnote Continued on Next Page.) Contra C& . ;ounty Board of Supervisors November 11, 2002 Page 11 practical effect, prohibiting the hiring of workers who were not trained in California and who are not affiliated with CAC-approved apprenticeship programs precludes non-California residents from being hired. (See attached Declarations of out-of-state workers, ¶5; see also July 23, 2002 Memorandum from William Walker, M.D., Health Services Director to Board of Supervisors at p. 4 [noting that proposed amendments would prohibit facilities from hiring out-of-state workers because they would not be certified by CAC]). Furthermore, the CAC has restricted programs it has approved from recruiting Bingham McCutchen LLP or enrolling persons who reside outside of a designated geographic area, thus bingha!n.com imposing a de facto residency requirement for apprentices. See Fresno Area Plumbers v. PHCC of the Greater Sacramento Area, Case No. 9$-17 (Dec. 2000). Additionally, the ordinance requires contractors to lay off"trained" workers -- i.e. those trained in California-- last. 1"d. at § II(3)(C). Thus, for both hiring and retention purposes, residents are favored over nonresidents. As demonstrated by the enclosed declarations of out-of-state workers, numerous non-California residents who have historically been employed at the refineries in Contra Costa County will be precluded from working at the refineries if the ISO is amended as proposed. 2. Contra Costa County Cannot Justify the Discriminatory Treatment Against Nonresidents Because the proposed ordinance burdens a privilege protected by the Clause -- private employment-- the second question must be addressed. whether the government has a substantial reason for the difference in treatment that bears a close relationship to the discrimination. United Bldg& Const. Trades Council, 465 U.S. at 222. The County has the burden to demonstrate both the existence of a substantial reason for the ordinance and that the relationship between its justification and the discrimination against nonresidents is (Footnote continued from Previous Page.) approved by the CAC may also be administered by an accredited public college, but no colleges offer such a test. See Memorandum from County Counsel to Board of Supervisors re Industrial Safety Ordinance, September 16, 2002, at p. 3 ["at this time, there are no approved tests being administered by a four-year college for any of the apprenticeable occupations."] Contra C6,,,_-�ounty Board of Supervisors November 11, 2002 Page 12 sufficiently close. Hicklin, 437 U.S. 525-26;A.L. Blades &Sons, Inc. v. Yerusalim, 121 F.3d 865, 871 (3rd Cir. 1997). The County can do neither. First, to show that it has a substantial reason for the discriminatory treatment, the County must demonstrate that nonresidents are a"peculiar source of evil at which the statute is aimed." United Bldg& Const. Trades Council, 465 U.S. at 222, quoting Toomer v. Witsell, 334 U.S. 385, 398 (1948). The purported rationale for the ordinance is improvement of safety. (See, e.g., Initial Study at Bingham Mccutchen LLP p. 5) Yet there is absolutely no evidence that non-residents, whether of Contra bingham.com Costa, Alameda, or Solano Counties or of California more generally, are less safe refinery workers. The evidence on employee safety records cited as "Sources" in the Initial Study merely distinguishes between contract and direct-hire employees, not residents versus nonresidents. Thus, the County cannot show that nonresidents are a"peculiar source of evil at which the statute is aimed." Hicklin, 437 U.S. at 526-27 (rejecting avoidance of unemployment as justification where record did not demonstrate nonresidents were major cause of unemployment); see also A.L. Blades &Sons, Inc., 121 F.3d at 871-72 (rejecting state's justification for discriminating against hiring nonresidents because state failed to proffer any evidence that nonresident employees constituted "peculiar source" of unemployment in construction industry). Moreover, the evidence shows that many of the most highly skilled and experienced workers normally employed for refinery turnarounds are from out of state. See Spencer Decl. ¶7; Elmore Decl., ¶ 7; Sakamoto Decl., ¶¶ 18- 19. As discussed above, precluding them from working in Contra Costa refineries is more likely to decrease than increase safety. Nor can the County show that there is a sufficiently close relationship between its alleged justification--=safety-- and its restriction to residents of three counties and Californians who are graduates or apprentices in CAC-approved programs. In Hicklin, the Supreme Court held that the statute failed the "substantial relationship" test because the statute preferred all residents regardless of whether they were habitually unemployed or not. Id. at 527; see also W C.M. Window Co., Inc. v. Bernardi, 730 F.2d 486, 497-98 (7th Cir. 1984) (rejecting State's attempted justification of unemployment where there was no evidence concerning benefits of preference law). Likewise here, the proposed ISO favors residents regardless of whether they have experience and the requisite skills to work on oil refinery turnarounds, and excludes nonresidents regardless of whether they are experienced and qualified. The County cannot show any relationship, much less a substantial one, between its stated goal of improving safety and the discrimination against out- of-state workers. After considering available evidence concerning training programs and worker injury and safety records, as well as hearing testimony Contra Ccs__/aunty Board of Supervisors November 11, 2002 Page 13 from Hazardous Materials Program staff, the Environmental Subcommittee of the Public and Environmental Health Advisory Board("PEHAB") concluded that there was "no compelling evidence that contract workers trained by programs approved by the California Apprenticeship Council had better safety records than contract workers trained by other programs." Hazardous Materials Commission and PEHAB Responses to Proposed Amendments to the Industrial Safety Ordinance, July 23, 2002. The Environmental Subcommittee therefore recommended that the proposed amendments to the Bingham Mccutchen LLP ISO not be implemented. Id. PEHAB voted to support the Environmental bingham.cam Subcommittee's recommendation on May 23, 2002. Id. The Hazardous Materials Commission's Planning and Policy Development Committee also voted against supporting the proposed amendments. Their main reasons for voting against it were: 1) the lack of evidence that contract workers trained in programs approved by the CAC had better safety records than those trained elsewhere; 2) the limited availability to merit shop employees of programs approved by the CAC, and 3) the concern that the proposed amendment would hinder the ability of facilities to hire out-of-state workers who would not be certified by the CAC. (July 23rd Hazardous Materials Commission Comments,p.4). To justify the discrimination, the County must show"evidence of the benefits of a residents-preference law in dealing with a problem created by nonresidents . . . ." C.M.C. Window Co., 730 F.2d at 497 (emphasis in original). As in the C.M.C. Window case, the County here"has presented none." Id. Rather, the evidence demonstrates that the proposed amendments would decrease rather than increase safety. The proposed amendments would restrict the labor pool and prohibit contractors from hiring the most experienced and qualified workers. Because the County has not presented any evidence demonstrating the benefits of excluding nonresidents, it cannot justify the discrimination. In short, the County cannot show (1) that it has a substantial reason for discriminating against nonresidents in private employment, or(2) that the relationship between its discrimination and its stated justification is sufficiently close. Accordingly, the proposed ordinance violates the Privileges and Immunities Clause. C. Commerce Clause The proposed ISO amendments also violate the Commerce Clause of the United States Constitution. This provision prohibits states from unduly burdening interstate commerce. W C.M. Wondow Co., Inc. v. Bernardi, 730 Contra C6,,___A_2ounty Board of Supervisors November 11, 2002 Page 14 F.2d at 493. The Commerce Clause grants Congress the power"[t]o regulate Commerce with foreign Mations, and among the several States . . . ." Art. I, § 8, cl.3. Although the Clause speaks in terms of powers granted to Congress, "the Clause has long been understood to have a `negative' aspect that denies States the power unjustifiably to discriminate against or burden the interstate flow of articles of commerce." Oregon Waste Sys. Inc. v. Dept of.Envtl. Quality, 511 U.S. 93, 98 (1994). This is known as the "dormant Commerce Clause." As the Supreme Court explained in Fulton Corp. v. Faulkner, 516 Bingham McGutchen LLP U.S. 325, 345 (1996), "the dormant Commerce Clause . . . require[s] bingham.com justifications for discriminatory restrictions on commerce [to] pass the strictest scrutiny." (Internal quotation marks omitted).g The first question under the dormant Commerce Clause is whether the legislation"regulates evenhandedly with only incidental effects on interstate commerce" or whether it"discriminates against interstate commerce." Oregon Waste, 511 U.S. at 99. Discrimination simply means treating in-state and out- of-state economic interests differently, benefiting the former and burdening the later. Id. The discrimination may be facial or in practical effect. Maine v. Taylor, 477 U.S. 131, 138 (1986); Pelican Chapter, Associated Builders c& Contrs., Inc. v. Edwards, 128 F.3d 910, 917 (5th Cir. 1997). Discriminatory regulations are "virtually per se invalid."Id. Here, there can be no question that the proposed ordinance discriminates on its face against interstate commerce. The proposed ordinance explicitly grants 9 This principle—as applied to both products and labor—has long been established. As the Supreme Court stated in Baldwin v. G.A.F. Seelig, Inc., 294 U.S. 511, 527 (1935): "Neither the power to tax nor the police power may be used by the state of destination with the aim and effect of establishing an economic barrier against competition with the products of another state or the labor of its residents. Restrictions so contrived are an unreasonable clog upon the mobility of commerce. They set up what is equivalent to a rampart of customs duties designed to neutralize advantages belonging to the place of origin." (emphasis added) Contra Co,, X"ounty Board of Supervisors November 11, 2002 Page 15 hiring preference to workers from three California counties over nonresidents. "In making that geographic distinction, the [proposed ordinance] patently discriminates against interstate commerce." Oregon Waste Sys., 511 U.S. at 100. The proposed ordinance also restricts contractors from hiring workers who are not affiliated with a CAC-approved apprenticeship program, and thus, in effect requires contractors to hire Californian workers. Thus, the proposed ISO would erect a nearly prohibitive tariff against hiring nonresident labor. W:C.M.

Because the proposed ordinance overtly discriminates, it is subject to strict scrutiny. Oregon Waste Sys., 511 U.S. at 101; Conservation Force, Inc. v. Manning, 301 F.3d 985, 995 (9th Cir. 2002), citing Sprohase v. Nebraska, 458 U.S. 941, 957-58 (1982). The County must demonstrate that the discrimination is narrowly tailored to further a legitimate interest. Conservation Force, 301 F.3d at 995, citing Sprohase, 458 U.S. at 957-58. In fact, "[t]he [County's] burden of justification is so heavy that facial discrimination by itself may be a fatal defect." Oregon Waste Sys., 510 U. S. at 101 (quotations omitted). The County cannot meet its burden. First, the County cannot demonstrate that it proposed changes to the ISO would actually serve its stated interest of improving safety. Maine, 477 U.S. at 138 ("burden falls on the [government] to demonstrate both that the statute `serves a legitimate local purpose' and that this purpose could not be served as well by available nondiscriminatory means.") There is absolutely no evidence demonstrating that workers who live outside of Contra Costa, Alameda, or Solano Counties, or that workers trained out of state pose a particular threat to safety at oil refineries. C.M.C. Window Co., 730 F.2d at 496 (state law discriminating against out-of-state workers violated Commerce Clause where Illinois failed to evidence of actual or probable harm from allowing nonresidents to work on construction projects). Second, to the extent the goal is safety, there are nondiscriminatory ways of attaining the safety objectives, such as establishing a neutral test to evaluate the skills of all workers. Because there are nondiscriminatory alternatives available, the discrimination under the proposed changes to the ISO violates the Commerce Clause. Oregon Waste Sys., 511 U.S. at 100-101.

The Proposed Ordinance Violates the Contract Clause The ordinance also violates the Contract Clauses in both the federal and California Constitutions. ° To demonstrate a violation under the Contract Clause, a party must show(1) a substantial impairment of a contractual relationship, and (2) that the impairment was not reasonable and necessary to fulfill an important public purpose. Id.; General Motors Corp. v. Romein, 503 U.S. 181, 186 (1992). The more severe the impairment, the more closely the Bingham,Mccutchen LI legislation is reviewed. Keystone Bituminous Coal Assn v. Debenedictis, 480 bingham.cam U.S. 470, 504 n. 31 (1987) ("severity of the impairment ... affects the level of scrutiny to which the legislation will be affected.") (citation and quotations omitted). Here, the proposed ordinance goes into effect immediately, and thus would force contractors to terminate existing contractual relationships with refineries because the contractors employ workers who are not enrolled in or did not graduate from a CAC-approved apprenticeship program. See Spencer Decl., TT 11-13; Elmore Decl., ¶ 12; 'Wann Decl., ¶¶ 11-13; Sakarnoto Decl., ¶22. The termination is a more than"substantial impairment" of these contracts; it is a complete impairment. Thus, the proposed ordinance and the County's purported justifications will be subject to the closest review. Keystone Bituminous Coal Assn, 480 U.S. at 504 n.31. The proposed ordinance violates the Contract Clause because it is not reasonable and necessary to fulfill an important public purpose. General Motors, 503 U.S. at 186. Under the Clause, a court must satisfy itself that the County's infringement on the contracting parties' rights "[is based] upon reasonable conditions and [is] of a character appropriate to the public purpose justifying [the legislation's] adoption." Energy Reserves Group, Inc. v. Kansas Power&Light Co., 459 U.S. 400, 412 (1983). The County cannot meet this standard. Terminating existing contracts between contractors and refineries is not reasonable or necessary to improve safety, the County's purported justification for the legislation. As previously discussed, terminating these contracts and forcing contractors to exhaust a limited labor 10 The analysis of California Contract Clause claims is identical to that under the United State Constitution. Pacific Gas &Electric Co. v. City of Union City, -- F.Supp.2d--, 2002 VVI, 1940705, at * 15 (N.D. Cal. June 25, 2002), citing Calfarm Ins. Co. v. Deukmejian, 48 Cal.3d 805, 826-31 (1989). Contra Cd,, 1'ounty Board of Supervisors November 11, 2002 Page 17 pool of less experienced and less qualified workers will have the opposite effect: it will decrease safety. Because no reasonable basis exists for this impairment of existing contracts, the proposed ordinance violates the Contract Clause of both the United States and California Constitutions. F. The Proposed Ordinance Fails Because it Discriminates Against lion-Union Workers Bingham McCutchen LLP For the vast majority of the work performed in refineries, the practical effect bingham.com of the proposed ordinance would be to require union affiliation in order to be eligible for the work. Section 7 of the National Labor Relations Act, 29 U.S.C. § 151 et seq. ("NLRA"), guarantees every employee "the right to self- organization, to form,join or assist labor organizations . . . and . . . the right to refrain from any or all of such activities . . . " (emphasis added). Congress specifically amended the NLRA in 1947 to ensure that employees' right to choose not to join a union was protected. Conair Corp. v. NLRB, 721 F.2d 1355, 1382 (D.C. Cir. 1983). The National Labor Relations Board was directed by Congress to "respect and enforce choices--whether for or against a union—made by employees." Id.; see also Pattern Makers'League v. NLRB, 473 U.S. 95, 99 (1985) ("overriding policy of the labor law that employees be free to choose whether to engage in concerted activities" may not be frustrated). The NLRA is "the law of the land which no state law can modify or repeal." Nash v. Florida Industrial Comm'n, 389 U.S. 235, 238 (1967). "If employee conduct is protected under Section 7, then state law that interferes with the exercise of these federally protected rights creates an actual conflict and is preempted by direct operation of the Supremacy Clause." Brawn v. Hotel& Restaurant Employees &Bartenders, 468 U.S. 491, 502 (1984). The proposed changes to the ISO would, in effect, coerce workers to join unions in order to be eligible to perform work at oil refineries in Contra Costa County. As discussed earlier, the proposed amended ISO precludes contractors from hiring apprentices who are not enrolled in CAC-approved apprenticeship programs, and except for a narrow, impractical exception, precludes contractors from hiring journeymen who have not graduated from CAC-approved programs. For about 90 percent of the workers in oil refineries –iron workers,boilermakers, millwrights, sheet metal workers, steam fitters and insulation workers–the CAC has only certified union-offered apprenticeship programs for their trades. Even the County Counsel has acknowledged that: "Because there are no California Apprenticeship Council- approved programs for [some of the major trades involved in refinery work], the practical result of the amendment will be that in three years, for those Contra Co.��ounty Board of Supervisors November 11, 2002 Page 18 trades, contractors must hire union workers in the three county area for refinery major construction projects before hiring other workers unless non- union apprenticeship programs or skills tests are approved." Memorandum from County Counsel to Board of Supervisors re Industrial Safety Ordinance dated September 16, 2002, pp. 3-4; see also Hazardous Materials Commission and Public and Environmental Health Advisory Board Responses to Proposed Amendments to the Industrial Safety Ordinance, July 23, 2002, p.4 (noting that Planning and Policy Development Committee rejected proposed Bingham Mccutchen «p amendments to ISO in part because of the "limited availability to merit shop binghom.com employees of programs approved by the CAC"). The net effect of the proposed amendments to the ISO would be to require workers to join unions in order to gain access to CAC-approved programs, and thus be eligible to work in Contra Costa County refineries. Such coercion is prohibited by the NIRA. Pattern Makers'League, 473 U.S. at 104 (restricting individuals' right to resign from unions invalidated as contradicting important NIRA policy of voluntary unionism). The fact that this is not the avowed purpose of the ordinance is not decisive. A local law is invalid if, regardless of its intent, the effect is to interfere with the exercise of federally protected rights. Livadas v. Bradshaw, 512 U.S. 107 (1994). Here, the right to work in Contra Costa refineries would effectively be denied on the basis of non-union membership. Accordingly, the proposed ISO violates Section 7, and is therefore preempted. The proposed amended ISO would also be preempted under the Machinist preemption doctrine. Lodge 76, Intern Assn of Machinists and Aerospace Workers v. Wisconsin Employment Relations Comm'n, 427 U.S. 132 (1976). The proposed amended ISO would effectively require contractors to hire primarily union workers, and thus disrupt the "balance of power" between management and labor in an area Congress intended to remain unregulated. Id. The proposed ISO would interfere with the freedom of a private employer and private employees to negotiate an employment contract outside of the collective bargaining process. By mandating contractors to hire through unions, and mandating workers apply through unions, the proposed ISO violates the nation labor policy by interfering with the free play of economic forces which Congress has intentionally left unregulated.

The adoption of the proposed amendment to the Industrial Safety Ordinance (ISO), Section 450-8.014—County File#CP02-30, can significantly impact the safety of Contra Costa refineries, leading to offsite environmental and community exposure consequences. This is based on the ISO amendment limiting a refinery's ability to utilize the full spectrum of qualified workers, regardless of affiliation and apprenticeship certification, to perform maintenance, specialty and emergency services. As currently written, the ISO 1390 Willow Pass(load,Suite 640 .

The California Apprenticeship Council is primarily dominated by members with clear Building Trades affiliations and has predominantly approved only wilding Trades apprenticeship programs. It is widely perceived that non-Building Trades workers would be severely restricted or barred from gaining CAC certification. 5. Refineries are complex facilities converting crude oil into various useful petroleum products such as gasoline,jet fuel, diesel and numerous raw compounds further used to manufacture other goods. The equipment associated with these processes requires ongoing, routine maintenance and scheduled major maintenance. Turnarounds are scheduled events to perform major maintenance to an entire refinery or to major portions (units) of it. Typically one or more units will be shut down for extended periods (1-12 weeks). During that period, within the unit(s), incoming and outgoing materials are halted and the unit is de-energized, depressured, cleaned, inspected, refurbished and then placed back into service. Turnarounds are essential to ensuring the continued safe operation of all petroleum refineries. 6. Turnarounds are very complicated planning events requiring the integration and coordination of(1) incoming and outgoing product deliveries, including fulfilling long term contract obligations, (2) logistical scheduling of the maintenance to be performed during the turnaround, (3) completion of engineering,procurement and delivery of necessary equipment, tools and supplies to support the turnaround, and(4) contracting and managing of in-house and offsite labor to complete the turnaround. 7. Turnarounds require months to years of preparation. It is not uncommon that a major turnaround is planned two or more years in advance. The cost of a turnaround is dependent on the scope of the work and is commonly measured in the millions to tens of millions of dollars in direct labor and materials costs and requires hundred to thousands of contractor man- hours. 8. Contractor selection is critical in planning a turnaround. Factors used in selecting a contractor include: past and present safety record, contractor experience and expertise, management team qualifications, PSM (Process Safety Management) and RMP (Risk Management Program) compliance, workforce training,workforce availability, planning and scheduling capabilities, and cost effectiveness. Refineries go through involved contracting practices to ensure that qualified contractors meet these requirements. 9. Major turnarounds require numerous crafts and specialty contractors. Craft contractors include: General labor,machinists, equipment operators, electricians, iron workers, pipefitters, welders, boilermakers, insulation workers, etc. Specialty contractors include: millwrights, catalyst installers,hydroblasters, tank cleaning workers, scaffold erection, computer programmers, equipment specialists, etc. Refineries must contract work to firms and workers who 1394 Willow pass Road, Suits 600 0 Concord,Califomia 94520 • Tel 925.689:7000 .

Firms, contractors and workers who do not meet these criteria are normally immediately eliminated from the contracting process. Refineries identify the best possible contractors from local, regional and national markets regardless of Building Trades affiliation or specific Building Trades apprenticeship certification. 10. A significant portion(- 50%) of the current total contractor workforce at refineries is comprised of non-Building Trades workers. The total contractor workforce includes workers used for turnarounds, ongoing maintenance and specialty contractors. Based on refinery data for the past three years (1999-2001), non-Building Trades workers (-1.15)have a significantly better safety record than Building Trades workers (-2.17) as measured by the OSHA 200 recordable injury rates.The OSHA recordable rate measures the average number of recordable injuries per 200,000 man-hours of work performed. Therefore,based on the previous three years of data from OSHA 200 recordable injury rates, non-Building Trade workers are shown to be safer than Building Trades workers who have completed or are enrolled in apprenticeship programs approved by the California Apprenticeship Council. 11. Based on the above, limiting contractors to Building Trades labor,who have specifically completed or enrolled in apprenticeship programs approved by the California Apprenticeship Council (CAC),would significantly impact the refinery's ability to utilize non- Building Trades contractors who provide valuable labor and specialty skills. This will then impact a refinery's ability to operate safely by performing essential routine and major maintenance with the most competent contractors, regardless of affiliation. 12. Due to the long planning cycle of turnarounds, limiting the qualified contractor pool to CAC program graduates may cause turnaround delays as the local availability of workers at the planned turnaround time may be significantly different than originally forecasted. Although some turnarounds can be delayed to some extent, a significant delay can impact a unit's ability to operate safety. This in turn can cause operating incidents and accidents that with resultant onsite and offsite consequences. 13. Common causes for turnarounds are: (1)Refurbishing or replacement of equipment including moving parts, contacts, insulation, refractory, etc., (2)Replacement of equipment near the end of its operating life, (3) Internal inspection of equipment and vessels that requires it to be shut down to be inspected, (4) Replacement of expendable media such as catalysts, filters and packing, (5)Replacement of older equipment and processes with newer safer and more efficient technologies and(6)Installation of newer monitoring and process control technologies. 14. When selecting contractors for refinery turnarounds, refineries require specialized companies who use workers who have substantial training and qualifications for this particular type of work. Workers who have training and experience only with ordinary construction projects are not adequately qualified to perform the highly specialized work required for refinery turnarounds. 1390 Willow Pass Read,Suite 600 0 Concord,California 94520 .

A fundamental flaw in utilizing only CAC approved labor is that much of the current refinery specialty work is not performed by enrollees or graduates of CAC approved programs. This would leave a significant void in specialty skills required for the safe operation of a refinery such as catalyst installers, hydroblasters, tank cleaning workers, scaffold erection, computer programmers, equipment specialists, etc. Substantial delays may be encountered in securing new contracts with contractors and workers to meet the new requirements, if possible at all. 16. Experience with refinery turnarounds is a better indicator of how skilled and trained workers are for refinery work than where they are from(specific counties, California or out-of-state) or where they were trained. Enrollment in or graduation from a CAC-approved apprenticeship program does not signify that the worker has any of the specialized skills and training necessary to work on refinery turnarounds. For example electrical, carpentry or plumbing workers trained in the trade to build office buildings will not be familiar with either the equipment used or special safety requirements needed to work in high pressure and high temperature operating refineries. 17. There is a limited labor pool with the specialized skills, experience and expertise required for work on refinery turnarounds. Based on the non-Building Trade majority (>50%) of total contractors working at Bay Area refineries, it is estimated that a similar percentage of specialized skill contractors would be eliminated for consideration for refinery work. This in turn would jeopardize the performance of critical refinery maintenance work. 18. Many of the contractors best qualified to perform turnaround work employ workers from outside of Contra Costa, Alameda and Solano counties or outside of California. This is required to quickly staff up for the large number of qualified workers required to temporarily staff turnaround work. 19. As a result, the great majority of the workers who are qualified to work on refinery turnarounds (1) are not from Contra Costa, Alameda or Solano counties, and(2)have not completed, and are not engaged in, apprenticeship programs approved by the CAC. 20. The amendments proposed by Contra Costa County to its Industrial Safety Ordinance ("ISO") would therefore render ineligible for work on refinery turnarounds a large portion of the limited pool of workers who have the skills, experience and expertise required for this work. 21. During a turnaround, it is common to identify additional maintenance work that needs to be undertaken that is not within the initial scope of work. Such maintenance work may require specialty contractors and labor. Given the severe limitations of the ordinance on the pool of qualified workers, it may be difficult or impossible to find specialty contractors with qualified labor on short notice. The result may be a substantial delay in completing the turnaround, which may necessitate extended shutdown of units until contractors that are both qualified and meet the labor pool requirements of the ordinance are available. 1390 Willow Pass Road,Suite 600 * Concord,California 94520 • Tel 925.689.7000 r Fax 925.689.7006 4 30152843.4/01947-0069 [AJEmichhWWRY Elchleal Engineers Inc,Of California 1309001 xcesTrgfa rnearaev 22. In addition, because of the long planning horizon for major maintenance and turnarounds, there are several contractors with whom refineries will have contracted to perform refinery maintenance or turnaround work scheduled to begin after the date the proposed ISO amendments become effective. These contractors will be precluded from conducting this work under the proposed changes to the ISO because their labor force will not meet the requirements of the new ordinance. 23. As a result, the amendments proposed by the County to its ISO will likely result in substantial delays in(a) currently scheduled major maintenance or refinery turnarounds as refineries attempt to secure contracts with contractors who have a labor pool that meets the requirements of the ISO and are available at specific times, (b) finding sufficiently qualified workers who meet the refinery's training, experience and safety requirements for refinery turnaround projects and in implementing such projects. Additionally, the requirements of the ISO could delay the performance of unscheduled maintenance of a major unit that was determined to be necessary. This is not uncommon and requires the same level of expertise as a turnaround. These delays could have a variety of negative environmental impacts. These include any or all of the following: a) Delays in maintaining critical units that limit Nitrous Oxides(NOx), such as Selective Catalytic Reduction(SCR's) and ultra low NOx burner systems in furnaces and boilers can result in excess NOx emissions into the atmosphere over the permitted limits allowed by the Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD). A variance must be obtained from the BAAQMD to allow the unit to continue operation until the necessary maintenance work is completed. During this period, there would be significantly increased emissions (up to many tons) of NOx per day. b) Cascade ripple effects can affect other units dependant on a specific unit and further jeopardize the safe operation of the refinery. For example, a shutdown of the SCR of a Cogeneration Power Generation Unit may require the shutdown of the entire power train, thereby jeopardizing the entire refinery's power grid and emergency power system. c) Likewise, delays in maintaining critical units that limit Sulfur Dioxides and Sulfur Trioxides can result in excess SOx emissions into the atmosphere over the permitted limits allowed by the Bay Area Air Quality Management District. d) Delays in refinery turnarounds by a shortage of workers during turnarounds could restrict the supply of gasoline and diesel fuels to all of Northern California and throughout the State. Because the State of California requires unique fuel specifications for both gasoline and diesel in order to meet air quality standards, Californians rely on only 13 in-state refineries to produce most of our gasoline and fuel.

The delays caused by the County's proposed amendments to its ISO ordinance could therefore result in statewide shortages of gasoline and diesel, higher fuel prices, and associated problems. e) Delays in refinery turnarounds could also delay critical or emergency maintenance on environmental abatement devices, thereby creating operational risks and requiring operators to shut down the devices and other affected units. f) Delays in required repairs and maintenance work could cause the refinery to run out of storage capacity for"residuals,"the heavier parts of the barrel of crude oil. This would make it necessary to transport the excess away from the refinery, thereby significantly increasing the risks and environmental hazards of transporting these materials by ship, truck,rail or pipeline. g) Delays could similarly result in the shutdown of refinery process units, including units that handle hazardous wastes. This would create a need to transport hazardous wastes generated by the refinery off-site for disposal, thereby creating additional transportation risks and environmental hazards. Delays could also cause the shutdown of acid regeneration facilities, thus requiring the refinery to transport spent acids to as far as away as Southern California, again increasing transportation risks.

I have been qualified as an expert in human resources and safety (ergonomics), including proceedings involving refinery incidents. 21454101.2/01947-0059 8. The proposed amendments to the ISO restrict the contractors' ability to hire workers to work at oil refineries who live outside of Contra Costa, Alameda or Solano Counties or who are not enrolled in or have not graduated apprenticeship programs that have been approved by the California Apprenticeship Council ("CAC"). 9. It is my understanding that the CAC-approved apprenticeship programs for many of the major trades that work at oil refineries in Contra Costa County during turnarounds,maintenance, repair or new construction are essentially restricted union programs. 10. There is no evidence in the record demonstrating that the restrictive CAC-approved apprenticeship training is more beneficial than any other training. There is no evidence as to what the training consists of. There is no evidence that the CAC-approved programs involve specialty training for refinery-specific skills and safety. 11. In my experience,refineries are quite unique with respect to their operations, equipment and procedures—and present some special safety challenges beyond those typically found in most industrial settings. The need for refinery-specific skills training to insure safety is apparent. 12. From a safety and ergonomic perspective, there is no credible rationale, nor empirical research that I have reviewed, that supports the utility of imposing a CAC approval or training requirement on industrial contractors. 13. There are typically multiple approaches and methodologies that can be utilized in the design of a credible and effective industrial safety program. As in many aspects of human factors engineering, there are a variety of viable solutions to achieve safety objectives. As an obvious example,we may consider all the different approaches to insuring that valves are closed and/or pipes are blocked. They range from warning signs to "tags"to electronic feedback and displays to locking hardware to "failsafe"hard blockage , among other approaches. They each have unique benefits and risks and levels of security. 14. There is no basis to conclude that CAC-approved programs are superior to those mandated by current guidelines administered through contractors utilizing non-CAC approved training programs—and there is some basis to conclude that they may be inferior. It is my understanding that according to Cal-OSHA data,trade union workers in the refinery building trades have nearly twice the job injuries as their non-union colleagues (June 10, 2002 letter from George B. Smith, ARCADIS,to Contra Costa County Hazardous Materials Commission). 15. While it is reasonable to impose minimum standards on the content of any safety program—and on the performance requirements of those successfully completing such a program—it is not reasonable to artificially restrict who can provide such training and assessment. To do so may prove counterproductive to the safety 21484101.2101947-0059 2 agenda by reducing the opportunities that workers have to obtain necessary training—and thus reducing the population of properly trained and certified workers. 16. From a scientific safety perspective, it is indefensible to impose any requirement on a training or evaluation program that does not manifest a statistically significant correlation with a reliable and valid criterion measure of safety. In other words, there is no empirical justification to require that anything be done, in the interest of safety, that does not have an actual demonstrable relationship to a defensible measure of safety. 17. Because there is no scientifically established relationship between completion of a CAC-approved training process and increased safety or reduced accidents, there is no justification to impose such a requirement. In fact, such an artificial restriction is far more likely to be counterproductive to a legitimate safety objective. 18. Not surprisingly,the net effect of imposing workforce certification requirements that are unrelated to the ability to perform and be qualified for a job assignment will only serve to unnecessarily reduce the available labor force. Whenever unnecessary requirements or thresholds are introduced in order to (artificially)restrict access to employment opportunities, the results are never good. 19. There is, of course, a legitimate use for certification and performance requirements for certain jobs—including certain refinery workers. However, this rationale should not be used to prejudicially restrict access to certification programs and jobs. To do so would violate fundamental fairness in the workplace—as well as generally accepted human resource management practices. 20. Technically, anything that is done to limit the population of available, similarly qualified workers serves to adversely increase the selection ratio. This means that if fewer workers are permitted to enter the selection"funnel," a higher percentage of those workers will have to be hired or assigned to meet whatever job requirements they are being recruited to fulfill. 21. If an employer is forced to hire(or select)more of a given population of workers with specific certification requirements, it will inevitably be forced to dig deeper into the pool of applicants or prospects. This typically entails a degradation of the average skill level of the final workforce that is selected. And there is no credible gain to be derived from this restriction. 22. Only political agendas—not safety agendas—are served by restricting the workforce to those enrolled in or who have graduated from CAC-approved programs. There is certainly no evidence that contractors utilizing non-CAC approved training programs have less capability or incentive or experience in developing and implementing these programs than contractors utilizing CAC-approved programs. Any program or process that restricts access of potentially qualified workers will be detrimental to the qualification process and is likely to impede overall safety at such a facility. 21464101.2/01947-0059 3 23.

In this position, I am responsible for Turnaround and Routine Maintenance activities at this very complex 170,000-BPD refinery. Having worked in the refining industry since 1968 and as a Refinery Maintenance Manager for the last 15 years in four different refineries; three of which are in California, I have personal knowledge of the matters set forth in this declaration and could and would testify to the contents of this declaration if called upon to testify as a witness. 2. 1 have substantial experience with refinery turnarounds at the Tesoro Golden Eagle Refinery in Martinez, California. Generally, a turnaround is required on refinery units every one to five years. During the turnaround period,which can last from a week to many weeks, vessels, boilers, heat exchangers, heaters and piping systems are opened for inspection and maintenance, This very elaborate inspection and maintenance process is.required to assure the continued safe and reliable operation of the refinery units themselves and in some cases to assure the state and others that the subject equipment is safe to operate. 3. When conducting refinery turnarounds,we use contractors who only employ workers who have comprehensive training, experience and qualifications for this particular type of work. Workers who have training and experience only with ordinary construction projects(and are not experienced on chemical and refinery equipment) are not adequately qualified to perform the highly specialized work required for refinery turnarounds. If workers are not trained specifically in refineries, and thus not used to the refinery environment, the noise,heat, and congestion tends to distract them from their work,making them less safe. Furthermore, workers trained on different materials have different skill sets. For example boilermakers who received their training on ships would not be qualified to use their boilermaker skills in the refinery. 4. Allowing refineries to use workers who were trained specifically in refinery work has significant benefits. In refineries, workers may be trained in multiple or cross- fields, such as pipefitters and boilermakers. Using workers trained in cross, or blended fields, enables the refineries to use fewer workers with more flexibility and have a smaller workforce with better communication skills. Our workforce becomes more cohesive,knowledgeable, and efficient. This translates to better safety records and a work force more experienced in working on equipment which has been taken out of service for maintenance activities. Further, insulators, carpenters and laborers are frequently cross-trained to this same end_ 5. A person who has been enrolled in or graduated from a CAC approved apprenticeship program for a specific occupation does not necessarily obtain the required skills and training to work on refinery turnarounds. Apprenticeable occupations are much more closely translated to refinery construction than refinery turnaround or maintenance activities. Workers trained and qualified to work on refinery turnarounds are a smaller portion of the RECEIVED TIME NOV, 12, 8:42AM PRINT TIME NOV. 12, 8:45AM TES©RO REFINING 925 972 9195 11/12!02 091seam P. 003 workforce. This is particularly true of pipefitters, electricians, instrument technicians, and boilermakers who can do very different things to support various construction activities as opposed to with refinery maintenance activities. 6. The local labor pool (Contra.Costa, Solano and Alameda counties) is not sufficient to independently support local industrial projects (refining, chemical and power)much less those required for maintenance and turnaround, activities as well. This was reinforced in our most recent pall 2001 to Spring 2002 turnaround period when all local refineries suffered from a lack experienced refinery crafts and skilled trades as well. 7. In my experience, most of the workers who are experienced and qualified to work on refinery turnarounds come from outside California. In my most recent turnaround experience, only approximately 30 percent of these workers are from California, and only 20 percent are from Contra Costa, Alameda and Solano Counties. 8. As a result,the great majority of the workers who are experienced and qualified to work on refinery turnarounds have not completed, and are not engaged in, apprenticeship programs currently approved by the California Apprenticeship Council ("CAC'J. 9. The amendments proposed by Contra Costa County to its Industrial Safety Ordinance("ISO")would render ineligible for work on refinery turnarounds a large portion of the limited pool of workers who currently have the skills, experience and expertise required for this work. a 10. As a result, the amendments proposed by the County to its ISO will likely result in substantial delays in finding sufficiently qualified workers for refinery turnaround projects and in implementing such projects if it is even possible to .find sufficient qualified workers that meet the new restrictive definitions. Typically,refinery turnarounds are scheduled well in advance, up to 2 years. Scheduling a turnaround is a long, drawn out process. Turnarounds are scheduled around business needs, and around the availability of specific skills, crafts and trades. If a refinery turnaround was delayed and/or needed to be rescheduled because of unavailability of qualified workers or contractors, it would likely be at least months, if not a year, later before the turnaround would go forward. 11. 1 also have serious doubts that there even are sufficient numbers of qualified workers who meet the newly restricted.qualifications under the proposed ISO to conduct a turnaround. 12. The requirement in the proposed changes to the ISO that refineries be responsible for ensuring that at least 50%of our contractor workforce for each apprenticeable occupation.are graduates of a CAC-approved apprenticeship program or work for a contractor who executed an agreement with a"bona fide apprenticeship program„causes additional problems: a. The requirement goes into effect immediately. On turnaround and maintenance projects, significantly less than 50% of our contractor workforce are graduates of CAC-approved apprenticeship programs. If you look at each apprenti.ceable occupation, the percentage is even lower for several crafts, such as pipefitters and boilermakers. Furthermore, RECEIVED TIME NOV, 12. 8:42AM 2 PRINT TIME NOV. 12, 8.45AM TESORO REFI N I NG 92S 872 9196 11/12/Oz 0s:sesm P 004 we have upcoming maintenance and turnarounds scheduled in which less than 50%of the workforce will be graduates of CAC-approved apprenticeship programs. Thus,we would be' forced to terminate relationships with contractors and experienced workers whose work and skills we trust, and to attempt to lure or work with workers with whom we are unfamiliar and who do not have refinery-specific experience and training. In addition to the safety concerns this raises, this could delay current and scheduled maintenance and turnarounds while we search for contractors who have hired, trained or tested sufficient numbers of journeymen who have �. graduated from CAC-approved programs. Moreover,within the next three years, Tesoro will need to conduct approximately five major unit turnarounds. For these larger shutdowns,the delay may be indefinite, it is even possible, to fill each apprenticeable occupation with graduates of CAC-approved programs. b. Section II(3)(B) of the proposed ordinance allows contractors, after attempting for two days to hire enrollees in or graduates of CAC-approved programs fromlocal counties, to hire other workers. Yet, as written,this alternative is not available to refineries. Refineries still have responsibility for ensuring that 50%of each apprenticeable occupation is a graduate of a CAC-approved program. This responsibility,in light of the flexibility given to contractors, creates great uncertainty and further problems. Typically, we sign contracts for projects with contractors, and then contractors begin to staff the project. Thus,when we sign with contractors, we will not know what percentage of their workforce actually will be graduates of CAC-approved programs. Furthermore, contractors often hire in stages, hiring for the positions requiring the highest level of skill and responsibility first. Depending upon who is available in the three counties when the contractors do their hiring, the makeup of their workforce may vary. Thus, it may be some time before it is clear what percentage of each apprenticeable occupation for each contractor are graduates of CAC-approved programs. Requiring refineries to ensure that at all times 50% of each apprenticeable occupation are graduates of CAC-approved programs would in effect require refineries to hire contractors one at a time. That would cause extraordinary delay and would be completely unworkable. C. The requirement that refineries ensure that 50%of each apprenticeable occupation are graduates of CAC-approved programs is unworkable from a practical standpoint for yet another reason. The unfortunate reality is, union workers(graduates of CAC-approved programs)and non-union workers do not get along and often refuse to work together. If the refineries want to continue to use experienced and trained workers who received training ether than through CAC-approved programs,we will be forced to place union workers side by side with non-union workers. Increasing the friction between the workers and forcing people to work together who do not communicate well increases the risks of communication breakdowns and of consequent accidents. 13. Our refinery currently has contracts with contractors to perforin planned work at the refinery that could not go forward because of the new restrictions that would be imposed under the proposed ordinance on the labor allowed to work in oil refineries.

I aim the regional Vice President for the TIMEC Group of Companies which are located at 155 Corporate Place, Vallejo, CA 94590. I have personal knowledge of the matters set forth in this declaration and could and would testify to the contents of this declaration if called upon to testify as a witness. 2. Both I and TIMEC have substantial experience with refinery turnarounds. TDYIEC has been performing both routine and turnaround maintenance in Bay Area refineries for over thirty years and I am a degreed Chemical engineer who has worked in refineries since 1980. Refineries shut down each of their plants every two to five years to inspect them and to repair them as necessary so that they can safely operate for another two to five years. These projects are generically known as turnarounds. 3. When conducting refinery turnarounds, we use only workers who have substantial,refinery-specific training and qualifications for this particular type of work. Based on my experience,workers who have training and experience only with ordinary construction projects may not have the skills necessary to perform some of the highly specialized work required for refinery turnarounds. This is because refineries have very different work conditions and equipment than would be encountered at other typical work sites, such as residential, commercial, civil, etc. 4_ How long a worker has worked on refinery turnarounds is a much better indicator of how skilled and trained a worker is, as opposed to where they live or where they were trained. The majority of competent refinery turnaround craftsmen have not been trained by a CAC approved training program. 5. Someone may be enrolled in or have graduated from a CAC-approved apprenticeship program for a specific occupation,such as electrical, carpentry or pipefitting,but may not have the required skills,knowledge, experience and safety training to work,on refinery turnarounds. The apprenticeable occupations are very broad categories. The workers trained and qualified to work on refinery turnarounds are a much smaller subset within these broad categories. For example, in the typical apprenticeship program for an electrician, only about 25%of its curriculum is specific to heavy industry. The rest of the curriculum addresses other applications that the apprentice is likely to work in such as high-rise buildings,residential, communications, etc. The result is that the"fully qualified electrician"may have virtually no refinery-specific knowledge or experience. 6. There is an extremely limited labor pool with the specialized skills, experience, expertise and safety training required for the specialized work required on refinery turnarounds. Each year,the refineries typically schedule the majority of their turnarounds in September-October and in January-February because historically, this is when the price of motor 5I6-d 900IZQO d 896-1 -�VDbd 90:21 20-II-ADN Ad i N I�d Ad 60: 'L,1k, MN 'Xi 03AI303� fuels is lowest, and thus, it is the cheapest time to shut down the plants. During these peak periods, the demand for skilled craftsmen will be three to eight timcs the base requircracnts. Because of the cost of living in the Bay Area, few craftsmen can afford to live here who are not employed on a continuous basis. Therefore,the majority of the incremental turnaround workforce must come from other parts of California and the country. So, practically,this ordinance as written will adversely affect these workers(i.e. those who live outside the Bay Area) because they cannot access the training and testing facilities named by the Board of Supervisors because they can only afford to be hese when they are working. 7. In my experience,many of the workers who are qualified to work on refinery turnarounds come from outside of California. In my experience, typically only 30 to 50 percent of these workers are from California, and only 10 to 20 percent aro fxom Contra Costa, Alameda and Solano Counties. 8. As a result,the great majority of the workers who are qualified to work on refinery turnarounds have not completed, and are not engaged in, apprenticeship programs approved by the California Apprenticeship Council ("CAC'). 9. The amendments proposed by Contra Costa County to its Industrial Safety Ordinance ("ISO")would effectively render ineligible for work on refinery turnarounds a large portion of the limited labor pool that have the skills,experience, expertise and safety training required for this work. 10. I have managed the hiring of hundreds of workers who are currently working on or scheduled to begin work at the Shell,Tesoro, and ConocoPhillips Refineries who would be precluded from continuing work under the proposed changes to the ISO. We typically employ a an average of 400 to 500 workers in these three refineries at all times, and during peals times, such as major turnarounds,we employ up to 1500 workers in the three refineries. Some of our workers are not residents and none are hired out of non-TDVMC hiring facilities or offices of Contra Costa,Alameda, or Solano Counties, nor have they been trained by CAC-approved apprenticeship programs. 11, As a result,the amendments proposed by the County to its ISO will likely result in substantial delays in finding sufficiently qualified workers for refinery turnaround projects and in implementing such projects. Typically,refinery turnarounds are scheduled well in advance,up to 2 years.This is due in part to the limited manpower, tight schedules and safety concerns. They are not usually performed on short notice. If a refinery turnaround was delayed and/or needed to be rescheduled because of unavailability of qualified workers or contractors, this would dramatically increase the potential safety risks and environmental exposure to the community. 12. I have upcoming contracts to perform work in connection with a refinery turnaround in Contra Costa County. Under the proposed changes to the ISO, Shell, Tesoro,and ConocoPhillips Refineries could, most likely,not honor my existing contracts to perform the work at their refineries because of the provisions of the proposed amendments to the Industrial Safety Ordinance restricting the labor force. 2 JJ6-d 900/800'd 896-1 -0081 90:11 ZO-1I-AON ME ! l 'A01�--�3-AIi AIW860 'AON Xi f3nI333� { � 13. Currently, we have longstanding commimients with refineries in Contra Costa County through recurring contracts to perform maintenance and turnaround work. Because we have commitments for work well into the future, we are able to schedule and train workers well in advance. However, without the commitments for future work,we cannot schedule, and thus guarantee, the same caliber workforce. If the work is not guaranteed,the best workers will travel elsewhere, where the work is a sure thing. Furthermore, it will not be worth expending our resources training the workers for a job that may not come through. Unfortunately,under the obligations that will be imposed by the amended ISO, refineries could not commit to honoring our recurring contracts. 14. All three of the refineries have scheduled turnarounds for at least some of their machinery during the next year, and 2004 is scheduled to be an even busier year for turnarounds. All of this scheduled work will be disrupted if the ISO is amended. 15. If Sec. IX(3)(B), requiring contractors to attempt for two days to hire "trained workers"'(enrollees in or graduates of CAC-approved programs) from the Contra Costa, Alameda and Solano Counties is interpreted to require contractors to go outside of their traditional hiring sources,the proposed TSO is highly problematic. TIMIC cannot risk its reputation nor the potential liability by hiring workers who, though"trained"under the proposed ISO, are inexperienced and unskilled in refinery work. Yet under the proposed ordinance, if these"trained"workers were available, we would be forced to Dire them over our experienced, proven workers. Furthermore,the two-day requirement injects a large measure of uncertainty into our hiring practices. Until we actually attempt to hire out of the three counties for two days, we will not know how many"Mained"workers are available, and thus, how much control we will have over selecting from our experienced, skilled workers. We cannot work under such uncertainty and we cannot risk hiring workers we do not believe are qualified. If we cannot hire workers who will enable us to meet our standards and provide the level of'service the refineries have contracted with us to provide, TIMEC will not do the work. If the proposed ordinance is interpreted to require contractors to hire enrollees in or graduates of CAC-approved programs from any source within the three counties,we perceive the changes to the ordinance as putting us out of business in Contra Costa County.

Based on my experience, workers who have training and experience only with ordinary constructionprojects may not have the skills necessary to perform some of the highly specialized work required for teftery turnarounds. Most important of these skills would be that of safety awareness. With few exceptions,there are heightened safety requirements and expectations within the petrochemical industry to which veterans of trades outside of refineries are simply not accustomed. A twenty- year veteran,highly qualified and experienced without benefit of refinery-specific knowledge could pose as much a safety risk as an entry level/non-skilled worker,possibly greater,given a propensity to proceed confidently where in fact caution would be prudent. In the areas)of permitting and personal protective equipment compliance,for example,it is the experienced worker without prior refinery experience who would most likely not we the need for compliance. This consideration is multiplied when dealing with high pressures and temperatures specific to re8rtery operations. 4. How much experience a worker has with refinery maintenance and turnarounds is a much better indicator of how skilled and trained a worker is than where the worker lives or was trained. 5.

There is an extremely limited labor pool with tie specialized skills, experience,expertise and safety training required for the specialized work required on refinery turnarounds.Given local labor market conditions for the last five years with the rise of seismic retrofits and prevailing wage projects,there has been much attrition due to the extended duration of these projects. With portions of the refinery workforce opting for these new opportunities, there is a deficiency in the manpower base that is made up by attracting workers from other refining regions nationally. With the relatively short duration of re&wry turnarounds,it is customary for a contingent workforce to follow the circuit from region to region,following the work cycles,keeping a trained,qualified and experienced labor force intact and viable. 7. I.n my experience,many of the workers who an qualified to work on refinery turnarounds come from outside of California,and even a smaller percentage are from Contra Costa,Alameda and Solano Counties.

How much experience a worker has with refinery maintenance and turnarounds is a much better indicator of how skilled and trained a worker is than where the worker lives or was trained. 5. Someone may be enrolled in or have graduated from a CAC approved apprenticeship program for a specific occupation, such as electrical, carpentry or pipefitting, but may not have the required skills, knowledge, experience and safety training to work on refinery turnarounds. The apprenticeable occupations are very broad categories. The workers trained and qualified to work on refinery turnarounds are a much smaller subset within these broad categories. Additionally, in many cases the specialty work required in turnarounds may not align with definitions of categories of apprenticeable occupation. In our experience some of the safest and most productive turnaround work can occur when workers posses a blend of more than one apprenticeable occupation. 6. There is an extremely limited labor pool with the specialized skills, experience, expertise and safety training required for the specialized work required on refinery turnarounds. In our experience as one of the largest turnaround employers in the Contra Costa County area is the size of this specialty labor pool is especially small (less than 1,000)relative to other markets in the US, There is no conceivable way that the traditionally heavy turnaround work periods can be supported by the local labor pool alone. 7.

If a refinery turnaround was delayed and/or needed to be scheduled because of unavailability of qualified workers or contractors, it would likely be months, if not a year, later before the turnaround would go forward. 11. In my experience there is a strong correlation between experience and " training with refinery operations and safety. Workers, by virtue of their experience, understand the complicated refinery processes and the ways they interact. Thus,they are better equipped to handle unanticipated events and are more likely to seek direction before taking action that could lead to a larger problem, such,as a chemical accident or release. belays in implementing refinery turnarounds could result in decreased safety of refinery operations and an:increased risk of refinery accidents or upsets. 12. I have hired many workers who are currently working on or scheduled to begin work at the Golden'Eagle, Shell Martinez, Phillips/Conoco Rodeo, and Chevron/Texaco Richmond Refineries who would be precluded from continuing work under the proposed changes to the ISO. Some are not residents and none are hired out of hiring facilities or offices of Contra Costa, Alameda, or Solano Counties, nor have they been trained by CAC approved apprenticeship programs. 13. I have upcoming contracts to perform work in connection with a refinery in Contra Costa County. Under the proposed changes to the ISO,the contract could not go forward because of the new restrictions that would be imposed on the labor allowed to work in oil refineries. 14. Golden Eagle, Shell Martinez, Phillips/Conoco Rodeo, and Chevroii./Texaeo Richriiond Refineries can not honor my contracts to perform the work at the refinery under the changes to the ISO. This will have an enormous adverse impact on our industry as well as hundreds of our workers across the United States. 30162704.1/01941-0059 2 RECEIVED TIME NOV, 11. 3: 53PNI PRINT TIME NOV, 11, 3: 55PM 11/11/2002 16:51 3103294798 7TMEC COMPANY PAGE 04 Z declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct to the best of my knowledge and belie: Executed on this I Ith day of November 2002 in Los Angeles County, California. n Craig .

We have been in business in Contra Costa County for 20 years. I have personal knowledge of the matters set forth in this declaration and could and would testify to the contents of this declaration if called upon to testify as a witness. The amendments proposed by Contra Costa County to its Industrial Safety Ordinance ("ISO") would render ineligible for work on refinery turnarounds a large portion of the limited labor pool that have the skills, experience, expertise and safety training required for this work because they have not completed, and are not engaged in, apprenticeship programs approved by the CAC. UCI's ability to continue to work for our clients would be eliminated along with the jobs provided by our company to local Martinez residents and county residents. As a result, the amendments proposed by the County to its ISO will likely result in substantial delays in finding sufficiently qualified workers for refinery turnaround projects and in implementing such projects. Typically, refinery turnarounds are scheduled well in advance, up to 2 years. This is due in part to the limited manpower, tight schedules and safety concerns. They are not usually performed on short notice. if a refinery turnaround was delayed and/or needed to be scheduled because of unavailability of qualified workers or contractors, it would likely be months, if not a year, later before the turnaround would go forward. Continuous operations of these facilities without scheduled shutdowns would make them susceptible to failures internally that would be a safety exposure to there surrounding neighbors. In ray experience there is a strong correlation between experience and training with refinery operations and safety. Workers, by virtue of their experience, understand the complicated refinery processes and the ways they interact. Thus, they are better equipped to handle unanticipated events and are more likely to seek direction before taking action that could lead to a larger problem, such as a chemical accident or release. Delays in implementing refinery turnarounds could result in decreased safety of refinery operations and an increase risk of refinery accidents or upsets.

I have substantial experience in the area of oil refinery turnarounds and maintenance at oil refineries. T have worked on approximately 40 turnarounds at 8 oil refineries over the course of 23 years. I have experience working on other projects at refineries as well. 3. Due to the specialized nature of the work,refinery turnarounds require highly skilled labor with substantial expertise, experience and specific safety training,.

In lily experience, the great majority of the workers with the special skills, experience and safety training needed to work on refinery turnarounds are not graduates of or enga;ed in training programs certified by the CAC. 6.

Due to the specialized nature of the work, refinery turnarounds require highly skilled labor with substantial expertise, experience and specific safety training. In my experience, workers who have training and experience only with ordinary construction projects, residential or commercial projects are not adequately qualified or trained to perform work on refinery turnarounds. 4.

In my experience, the great majority of the workers with the special skills, experience and safety training needed to work on refinery turnarounds are not graduates of, or engaged in training programs certified by the CAC. 7. Furthermore, someone may be enrolled in or have graduated from a CAC approved apprenticeship program for a specific occupation, such as electrical, carpentry or pipefitting, but may not be qualified to work on refinery turnarounds. The apprenticeable occupations are very broad categories. The workers trained and qualified to work on refinery turnarounds are a much smaller subset within these broad categories. 8. Increasing the number of inexperienced workers at oil refineries could increase the risk of accidents and/or upsets at the refinery, and decrease the safety of refinery operations. 9.
