Premiere issue of West Texas Environmental. This site will cover environmental issues related to permitting and regulations. Feel free to ask any questions related to the environment. I'll try to give the best answer possible.
It can be confusing on who handles what in the state of Texas. I have dealt with the EPA, TCEQ (Texas Commission on Environmental Quality), Texas Health Department, TxDOT, Texas Railroad Commission, US Army Corps of Engineers, and Texas Parks and Wildlife. In addition to the above, each local City and County Government may have their individual regulations.
Of course the big one in Texas, for the environment, is the TCEQ covering at least 90% of the regulations. The rest of the organizations just don't want to give up their little piece of the pie.
In each posting I will try to cover a small section of a specific regulation or try to give guidelines on how to get something done for the environment. You would be surprised how a single person can help shape our regulations.
