It's very likely that the price is being kept high by regulation, not refineries. In most of the left coast, it's nearly impossible to build anything industrial, so most refineries that exist are grandfathered rather than new. It's the same with electricity, which is why California imports so much from states even as far away as mine (Wyoming).
