Surprise inspection at Martinez refinery could last weeks, says Contra Costa health official

Contra Costa Health officials said they, along with officials from the Bay Area Air Quality Management District, began a surprise inspection at the Martinez Refining Company on Tuesday afternoon that could last a few days to even weeks. 

Matthew Kaufmann, CCH’s deputy director, said how long the agencies are at MRC — which is owned by PBF Energy Inc. — depends on what they find. He didn’t offer any preliminary information found during the inspection on Tuesday.
