Regulators approve air permit for oil refinery in Arizona

22-03-05

Federal regulators have approved air permitting for a proposed oil refinery in Arizona, eliminating a major obstacle for what could be the first such plant built in the United States since the 1970s.
The refinery would be built by Phoenix-based Arizona Clean Fuels on desert land 40 miles east of Yuma. Arizona, one of the fastest-growing states, has seen gasoline prices spike several times in recent years.
