(Adds comments from source that flaring won't affect supply)
By Ben Lefebvre
BP PLC. (BP) plans to perform maintenance next week at its
refinery in Carson, Calif., a person familiar with the refinery
said Friday.
The planned maintenance won't affect supply at the 265,000
barrel-a-day refinery, the person said.
BP said in a Friday filing with California's South Coast Air
Quality Management District it will flare sulfur dioxide and other
gases between Dec. 9 and Dec. 13.
A flaring event occurs when refineries make a controlled burn of
the gas found in equipment, and can indicate maintenance work is to
be done.
