Section 1 - Conflict Minerals Disclosure
Item 1.01 Conflict Minerals Disclosure and Report
For the period January 1, 2014 through December 31, 2014, PBF Energy Inc. and PBF Holding Company LLC (collectively, the “Company”) identified catalysts containing a conflict mineral used by the Company’s refining subsidiaries in the refining process for products sold by the Company. These catalysts are not intended to be consumed in the refining process and, therefore, no traces of the conflict mineral should remain in the products sold by the Company. Accordingly, we do not believe these products are within the scope of Section 13(p) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 13p-1 and Form SD promulgated thereunder (collectively, the “Conflict Mineral Rules”).
Conflict Minerals Disclosure
Nevertheless, the Company conducted in good faith a reasonable country of origin inquiry regarding the conflict mineral contained in the catalysts. The inquiry was reasonably designed to determine whether the conflict mineral contained in the catalysts originated in the Democratic Republic of the Congo or any country adjoining the DRC (collectively, a “Covered Country”), or was from recycled or scrap sources. The inquiry included obtaining written representations from suppliers of the catalysts stating either that the supplier had determined that the conflict mineral did not originate in a Covered Country or was from recycled or scrap sources, or that the supplier had no reason to believe that the conflict mineral originated in a Covered Country. Based on this inquiry, the Company has determined that it has no reason to believe that the conflict mineral may have originated in a Covered Country.
