We would like to let you know that planned flaring activity may be visible from our site later today as part of the start-up of one of our process units.

The flare may be visible from surrounding areas for a short period and there may be some associated increase in noise while the unit is brought back into operation.

The activity is expected to last for a few hours and is a normal part of the start-up process.
