Pauley Closing Its Newhall Refinery: Pauley Petroleum Inc. said that it will cease operations at its Newhall refinery and put the land up for sale by the end of the year because of slack demand and recent losses. About 15 of the plant’s 86 employees will be offered jobs at the company’s Fletcher refinery in Carson; the rest will be laid off, the company said. Pauley has operated the refinery since 1959 but said upgrades required by environmental laws would be too costly given the market for the plant’s asphalt, jet fuel and fuel oil.
