Foul emissions & noxious odors from the Limetree oil refinery have closed schools, & sickened St. Croix residents for the 2nd day in a row with migraine headaches & nausea—concentrated in an EJ community. Limetree pooh-poohs ‘light odors.’ This is not normal, U.S. EPA, US EPA - NJ,NY,PR,VI.

Noxious releases from the Limetree oil refinery drive St. Croix children from their schools—to their homes near the refinery, where they suffer the same noxious fumes. During a respiratory pandemic. This is unacceptable, U.S. EPA, US EPA - NJ,NY,PR,VI, EPAJustice.

But, but, the Limetree oil refinery officials said the noxious releases sickening St. Croix residents were normal operation and mere maintenance activities. Might they have been giving wrong information to the public?

Today, I ordered Limetree Bay in the U.S. Virgin Islands to immediately pause all operations until the facility can operate safely & legally. ⁦U.S. EPA⁩ will not hesitate to step in to protect communities disproportionately burdened by pollution. epa.gov/newsreleases/e…
