HARRISON INDUSTRIES CELEBRATES 85TH, UNVEILS CNG STATION Federal, state and county officials were on hand as Harrison Industries celebrated its 85th anniversary earlier this month. Harrison unveiled its state-of-the art compressed natural gas (CNG) fueling station with 26 pumps at the company’s Saticoy yard. Harrison Industries’s Nan Drake (left) joins Lynn Harrison, Myron Harrison, Jim Harrison and George Harrison, who are holding certificates of recognition from local lawmakers for the company’s new CNG fueling station. According to Mike Harrison, engineering manager for Harrison Industries, the CNG system includes two 250-horsepower compressor units that compress natural gas to over 3,500 pounds per square inch into CNG, as well as a computerized monitoring unit for its fueling stations. “Harrison continues to promote practices that reduce our greenhouse gas footprint, as well as enhance the environment as a whole,” Mike Harrison said. “This new CNG station will allow us to continue to convert a higher number of our diesel vehicles to clean CNG, reducing our GHG impacts and enhancing our communities’ air quality. As a step further, we will be using CNG sourced from low carbon programs, such as methane gas that has been captured from landfills, which has a smaller carbon impact that traditional pipeline CNG.”

Joyce Donaldson, IOM - President/CEO AGILENT TECHNOLOGIES ENABLES FORTY SEVEN CANCER RESEARCHERS TO WIN THE NOBEL PRIZE Agilent Technologies Carpinteria has donated $5,000.00 in sponsorship to the American Cancer Society’s (ACS) Relay for Life. The partnership between Agilent and the ACS dates back to when Agilent Technologies was Dako North America. Agilent Technologies acquired Dako in 2012 and made the decision to continue supporting the Relay for Life. With this sponsorship, Agilent is contributing towards the support of cancer researchers, centers and prevention studies. This funding has enabled forty seven cancer researchers to win the Nobel Prize - a record for a private, nonprofit health organization. This relationship with ACS is of great importance to Agilent Carpinteria as this site manufactures tissue-based cancer diagnostics. Hospitals and research laboratories worldwide use Agilent’s reagents, instruments, software and expertise to enable accurate diagnoses and deter mine the most effective treatment for cancer patients. The Carpinteria site has approximately 300 dedicated employees consisting of biochemists, engineers, researchers and skilled production staff, all working together in the fight against cancer.
