CAER Community Awareness Notification – Shell

Incident Details: Shell Manufacturing Centre in Corunna can confirm we experienced a unit upset at site at approx. 1 p.m. this afternoon, Monday, Feb.6. Near site neighbours may see increased flaring and be aware of an associated increased noise level due to this unit upset. It is important to note the flare system is a safety device at the refinery and is a normal and vital part of unit shutdown and start-up activities. All safety precautions and standard regulatory protocols are being followed as we work to safely return the unit to service as quickly as possible. The Spills Action Centre (SAC) has been notified, and this organization will be updated as needed. Should action be required by the community, instructions will be issued by your municipality.
