The Santa Barbara County Air Pollution Control District (District)
has issued six (6) draft federal Part 70 permits for the Greka Oil and
Gas, Inc. facilities that are part of the South Cat Canyon Stationary

stationary source is located approximately six miles south of the city

Greka Oil and Gas, Inc. South Cat Canyon stationary source project is
considered a major source for emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOx) and
