The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) will conduct a public hearing to receive testimony concerning proposed revisions to 30 TAC Chapter 334, Underground And Aboveground Storage Tanks, under the requirements of Texas Health and Safety Code, §382.017; and Texas Government Code, Chapter 2001, Subchapter B. The proposed rulemaking would implement House Bill (HB) 3554 and HB 1956, 80th Legislature, 2007, Regular Session. At the request of the TCEQ, the preamble of this rule proposal also specifically requests comments on the question of whether Leaking Petroleum Storage Tank (LPST) sites should be removed from the Texas Risk Reduction Program (TRRP) requirements in 30 TAC Chapter 350.  The public hearing on this proposal is in Austin on May 27, 2008, 10:00 a. m. at the TCEQ complex located at 12100 Park 35 Circle in Building E, Room 201S. The hearing will be structured for the receipt of oral or written comments by interested persons. Individuals may present oral statements when called upon in order of registration. There will be no open discussion during the hearing; however, an agency staff member will be available to discuss the proposal 30 minutes prior to the hearing. For more information go to:  http://www.tceq.state.tx.us/rules/hearings.html

The Texas Railroad Commission (RRC) has repeal all rules and propose new rules to address HB 3837 re: uranium mining and exploration (Chapter 11).  The RRC failed to adopt the proposal within six months of publication, so the proposal must be withdrawn.  For more information go to: http://www.rrc.state.tx.us/rules/proposed.html
