Progress Report. Mr. Paul stated that as ExxonMobil being a part of this community for over 95
years is one of the largest integrated petrochemical complexes in the world and continues to be
an industry leader in safety, reliability, and environmental performance. He stated that since the
year 2005, they've planted thousands of trees in the Baytown area, completed thousands of
projects, invested nearly $1 billion in environmental improvements of air and water quality, and
that the operations improved upset emissions by over 76 %. He stated that the Baytown complex
generates about 500 megawatts of capacity which compares to powering about 200,000 average
American homes and is done through Cogeneration which is the most energy efficient way of
generating electricity as it burns less fuel therefore makes less carbon dioxide. He stated that this
contributes to cleaner future air and positions the complex to be the most energy efficient
refinery in all of North America. He stated that they continue to support, use, and implement
emission reduction technology and projects to help drive improvements. He stated that since
2005 they've reduced nitrogen oxide (NOx) emission by 46 %, reduced volatile organic
compound (VOC) emission by 40 %, and improved the air incident performance by 64 %. In
regards to water resources, Mr. Paul stated that that since 2010 they've no spills of greater than
one (1) barrel into the Houston Ship Channel and additionally spent over $40 million on dock
infrastructure projects to help protect the water ecosystem that's around the plant. He stated that
their future operation improvements includes the North American growth project will produce
stronger thinner advanced premium grade polyethylene products which is beneficial by using
less weight in packaging therefore it reduces energy consumption both in processing
and transportation further reducing greenhouse gases and waste. He stated that their multi - billion
dollar of facilities doubles their production with no increase in their permitted emission limits
and the Baytown facilities help reduce the emissions produced by the vehicles from the gasoline
and diesel fuel that ExxonMobil produces that's being put into them.
Council Member McCartney inquired of how much of the 500 megawatts capacity does
ExxonMobil use. Mr. Paul stated that they use most of it depending on the operations of steam
and power consumption.
Council Member Sain inquired of they were able to look ahead to what the reduction in lowering

per billion (PPB) that's being proposed by the EPA. In response to Council Member Sain's
inquiry, Ms. Kelly Coppola, ExxonMobil Environmental Coordinator, stated that there's lots of
activity with this regard and it centers on science understanding what is driving the ozone
formation in the air shed. She stated that ExxonMobil and industry partners are partnering with
Academia to do the research necessary and come up with a resolution for the needed
improvements. Council Member Sain stated that he asked the City Manager to look at drafting a

them to put pressure on the EPA to go back and address the standard issue which is not
scientifically based.
Council Member Renteria requested for Mr. Paul to elaborate on controlling the emissions and
flaring. Mr. Paul stated that they do millions of emissions monitoring and testing for leaks
yearly; they have projects to recover more flare gas in which they will have one associated with a

monitoring tools they undergo regulatory monitoring in which the employees are trained to
follow.
