EPA investigating ExxonMobil for understating Torrance refinery risk

The environmental watchdog is investigating whether the company has deliberately understated the worst-case scenario for a disaster at the plant after secretly decreasing the amount of an additive put into highly-toxic hydrofluoric acid that makes it more dangerous than believed.
