Ventura, CA — After receiving calls from Ventura Westside residents on Friday, July 2 who said they smelled gas in the air around the SoCalGas compressor station at 1555 N. Olive Street, the Ventura Fire Department sent officers to inspect. While they didn't find enough natural gas in the air to warrant an evacuation order, several residents left the area of their accord. The City of Ventura has since requested more information from SoCalGas about this unplanned venting.
