ANOTHER WHITE VAN

Man Sought for Photographing Texas City Refineries

Law enforcement officials are looking for a man seen taking pictures of two Texas oil refineries about 30 miles south of Houston.
The three refineries seen being photographed include the largest U.S. plant operated by BP, which is the third-largest U.S. refinery, processing 470,000 barrels of crude oil per day.
The man was seen taking pictures outside the refineries, all located on the same highway, said Bruce Clawson, emergency management and homeland security director for Texas City.
While it is not illegal to take pictures of a refinery from a highway or street, officials would like to talk to the man to find out his reason for taking the photographs.
'This is based on the idea that al Qaeda does its homework,' Clawson said. 'That's not to say we don't have enough home-grown idiots already who might want to do something.'
The man was seen driving a white van.
