I understand that local, state and federal government will always consider economic programs to help minority business interest. I think that many major corporations are cognizant of problems that can develop in the communities where they do business. These large corporations have diversity programs for employees within their companies. They also have small company programs in their business agenda.
So I wondered why would Chevron reach out to this small minority owned company (BLDV) based in Texas?
In 1997, it appears that Chevron had an environmental pollution problem with the black community regarding abandoned oil pits in the Kennedy Heights neighborhood of Houston. This problem was inherited by Chevron after they acquired Gulf Oil.

At this point, I believe it is possible to consider a probable connection between Chevron & BLDV.
