Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and commemorate\nthe 130th anniversary of the Phillips 66 Rodeo Renewable Energy\nComplex, located in California's 8th Congressional District in Contra\nCosta County.\n  Founded in February 1896, the Rodeo facility celebrates 130 years of\ncontinuous operation in 2026, making it among the longest-operating\nrefinery sites on the West Coast. For more than a century, the site has\nplayed an integral role in the economic and industrial life of Contra\nCosta County and in California's broader energy landscape. Generations\nof workers and families have relied upon its operations, and its\npresence has supported local businesses, community institutions, and\nregional economic development.\n  Throughout its history, the Rodeo site has demonstrated an ability to\nadapt to meet the evolving energy needs of our state and Nation. From\nits early days as a petroleum refinery to its modern transformation,\nthe facility has continually embraced technological advancement and\noperational innovation.\n  In 2024, the facility completed its Rodeo Renewed transformation,\ntransitioning from a traditional petroleum refinery into a renewable\nenergy complex capable of producing approximately 800 million gallons\nof renewable diesel annually. This significant shift supports lower-\ncarbon transportation fuels and contributes to both national and state\nclimate goals. The complex has also expanded into the production of\nsustainable aviation fuel, generating approximately 10,000 gallons per\nday of neat SAF blendstock into approximately 20,000 gallons per day of\nfinished SAF, which helps address emissions in the aviation sector.\n  Further strengthening its clean energy portfolio, the facility\ncompleted an 88-acre on-site solar field in 2025, reducing its\nenvironmental footprint while diversifying its energy sources. These\nadvancements reflect a sustained commitment to innovation,\nenvironmental stewardship, and the preservation of good-paying jobs in\nContra Costa County and throughout California.\n  The Rodeo Renewable Energy Complex continues to operate under the\ncore values of safety, honor, and commitment. These principles resonate\ndeeply with the ideals of public service and community partnership.\n  On behalf of the constituents of California's 8th District, I commend\nPhillips 66 Rodeo Renewable Energy Complex AC Transit for their long-\nstanding contributions to the energy sector, the workforce, and the\nsurrounding community, and I congratulate them on 130 years of\ncontinuous operation."]], "columns": ["granule_id", "date", "congress", "session", "volume", "issue", "title", "chamber", "granule_class", "sub_granule_class", "page_start", "page_end", "speakers", "bills", "citation", "full_text"], "primary_keys": ["granule_id"], "primary_key_values": ["CREC-2026-02-20-pt1-PgE149-2"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 57.982289930805564, "source": "Federal Register API & Regulations.gov API", "source_url": "https://www.federalregister.gov/developers/api/v1", "license": "Public Domain (U.S. Government data)", "license_url": "https://www.regulations.gov/faq"}
