BUENOS AIRES (AP) - The government has ordered the closure of a Buenos Aires refinery run by the local unit of Royal Dutch Shell PLC as a precautionary measure, citing a lack of environmental permits and impact studies. 

In a statement, authorities said they had conducted 13 days of inspections at the Shell refinery in the Dock Sud area of southern Buenos Aires and charged they found pollution in tests of soil samples.
