California Resources Corporation Celebrates Earth Day with Santa Paula Canyon Trail Project

California Resources Corporation’s (CRC) dedicated workforce celebrated Earth Day in the Ventura area. On Friday, April 22, over 30 CRC employees and contractors took to the hiking trail in Santa Paula Canyon behind Thomas Aquinas College. Wielding trash pickers, wire brushes, and fencing repair items, CRC personnel spent the morning cleaning up the trails allowing visitors to better enjoy the scenic paths. 

“At CRC we treat every day as Earth Day. As Californians, our employees are dedicated to safe, sustainable domestic energy production that we all need to maintain our quality of life. We’re proud to supply affordable and reliable energy that reduces California’s dependence on energy imports and generates local jobs, business activity and tax revenues here at home. Employees from our Ventura, Kern, and Los Angeles teams mobilized on Earth Day in Santa Paula to beautify one of the communities where we live and work,” said Bob Barnes, CRC’s Executive Vice President of Operations.

Mike Lee, Artificial Lift Specialist with CRC, said, “I grew up in this area, as did many of CRC’s employees. We have hiked the trails, and enjoyed swimming at the ‘Punch Bowls’.  We are committed to preserving the beauty of the Santa Paula Canyon so others can enjoy it for years to come.”
