Relating to corrective action plans for certain emissions events.
HB 4482 requires the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) to notify local air pollution control programs when a facility must create a corrective action plan for an "excessive emissions event." The bill gives these local programs 30 days to comment on the proposed plan before TCEQ can approve it. Local comments are exempt from public disclosure under Texas law. This bill affects facilities causing significant emissions events and local air quality agencies, changing how local input is integrated into the state's review process for corrective plans. It applies only to events occurring on or after its effective date (September 1, 2025, unless passed by two-thirds vote).
