position until it gets fixed. they want to find out what happened and make sure that this does not happen again. here is the spokeswoman talking about the cause of the fire. >> last night at 6:30 p.m. we had a fire at our facility. the source of the fire is still under investigation. 20 response fighters were on scene to help to respond to the incident. >> will: here is video that we got from the fire that broke out around 6:30 p.m. last night. as far as the breeding situation this morning, everything gets back to normal. i have breathing problems and i am not having any problems whatsoever this morning.

they are having a controlled burn this morning. that means that they want to make sure that there is not a lot of pressure buildup. they're not sure what caused the fire. they do think that north was looking at the time and that is something that they will look into. people out here are asking if chevron will be able to be impartial and fair about this. when i asked at the news conference they said that outside agencies will help with the investigation, so regulators will be here to make sure that this is a fear transparent process. every now and then you may see a burst of flames going up around the chevron refinery but they say that is a safety device just to make sure that the hydrocarbon stay in place. now minor injuries there talking about the burned to the wrist and year as well as smoke inhalation and all three people were treated at the site. >> darya: you find that

everyone is satisfied with the way this was handled? >> will: we did ask them because we saw thick black smoke for hours. we asked the spokeswoman if that was normal how long would that take it that is normal? and she said they had all the firefighters, and mutual aid and all the people of the deputy chief says the situation is under control so she did not address whether or not they were happy with the response of she said was that everything was back to normal right now. as far as the plant is concerned they do not know how long that unit will be down or back up to start processing fuel. now people say that gives another reason for all oil companies to increase prices but she says that she would not speculate. she will not even speculate how much oil that particular unit processes to bring out to

the gas stations. right now the largest the early in investigating did promise to have in other news conference later this morning and of course we will bring that to you live. >> darya: i saw a giant mushroom cloud miles away. where were you last night. people were headed home for their work day, and here's what one witness that heard the explosion had to say about this. >> we heard the first explosion and we did not know what it was about. we that out and we saw the flames and then the smoke, and then the third explosion and then we felt like coming this way to see what was going on because there was no news. >> darya: at least 200 people needed medical attention for respiratory problems after the fire. this is one hospital where

people were treated. this hospital activated their incident command center shortly after 630 last night in response to be compromised air quality in the region. we have more on the health concerns since this affected windy soilure drilling us now good morning. now tell me, what were the levels like how are things right now this hour? >> if there is a lot of smoke, there is definitely compromised. smoking is that no matter what kind have. so like i said, there it was a lot of smoke and that is why we ask people and we also had people outside of the area with of know what was going on. if they had any

were feeling like it was a difficult to read yesterday's that something morning? the you expect people to call in sick? or is that the kind of thing that once it is over and over the the id linger for a while? >> it could take some time to get over. >> if it got into your lungs it could last for a long time. >> darya: would there be any permanent damage? >> that i am not sure, you should see your doctor. >> darya: have you heard of any lawsuits from this or have you talked to many people in the neighborhood? >> i have not heard
