Pass Canyon Refinery | Prescott Valley, Arizona Oil Infrastructure

Pass Canyon is an operational refinery situated at 2425 N Glassford Hill Rd, Prescott Valley, Arizona, in Maricopa County. The facility is part of the United States' oil infrastructure, serving the regional demand for refined petroleum products. As a refinery, Pass Canyon operates under the regulatory framework of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), including the Clean Air Act (CAA) Refinery MACT standards and other federal environmental regulations. The facility's NAICS codes suggest it produces both petroleum products and asphalt paving mixtures, indicating a diversified downstream product mix. The refinery's location in Arizona places it in a region with growing energy demand, supporting local transportation and industrial sectors. Its operational status contributes to the stability of fuel supply in the southwestern United States.

The refinery's operations are subject to EPA regulations governing air emissions, wastewater discharge, and hazardous waste management. Given its inland location in Arizona, the facility poses minimal coastal spill risk but must manage potential groundwater contamination and air quality impacts in the arid environment. The production of asphalt mixtures involves additional handling of heavy hydrocarbons, requiring robust emission controls.
