Sign Our Letter of Support

I am writing to express my support for Signal Hill Petroleum’s request to extend their Conditional Use Permit (CUP 97-03). As a member of the Signal Hill community, I recognize the importance of local energy production and the positive impact it has on our economy and daily lives.

Reasons for My Support:

  1. Local Production: Producing oil locally ensures that we adhere to the highest safety and environmental standards, reducing our reliance on imported oil from countries with lower regulations.
  2. Stringent Regulations: Signal Hill Petroleum complies with California’s rigorous regulations, including greenhouse gas reduction programs and emission controls.
  3. Community Benefits: The company contributes significantly to our local economy, funding schools, hospitals, first responders, and various community projects.

I believe that extending the Conditional Use Permit will allow Signal Hill Petroleum to continue their responsible and transparent operations, providing an essential resource that keeps gas prices down while supporting our community and environment.

Thank you for considering my support for this important project.

CUP stands for Conditional Use Permit. It is a permit issued with conditions and reviewed annually by the City of Signal Hill. CUPs are required for various business activities in Signal Hill, including bars, restaurants, industrial uses, and certain oil operations. The CUP is a discretionary permit with additional requirements beyond what is written in the City municipal code

SHP is requesting a 20-year extension of our CUP for the seven existing drill-sites. The City of Signal Hill commissioned an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) to analyze the most conservative possible scenarios for future SHP operations at the drill sites. The EIR assumes 46 new wells over the course of the extension and found no significant impacts.

An EIR is a study prepared by the City of Signal Hill in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The purpose of the EIR is to inform governmental decision-makers and the public about the potential environmental impacts, alternative and/or mitigation measures associated with a project.

A 20-year CUP allows Signal Hill Petroleum to align our planning with the city’s long-term vision, ensuring we address any environmental concerns responsibly and act as good stewards of the community.
