Submit written comments for Cheniere Air Permit 105710 by the end of the meeting on 6/30/22 at https://www14.tceq.texas.gov/epic/eComment.
Some key points:
- Requested Permit Pollution Amounts are unacceptably high
- Special Conditions need to include more monitoring
- Data from Cheniere's monitoring stations, SCI monitors managed by IOBCWA, and Oil & Gas Imagery (OGI) videos taken by EarthWorks all show that unacceptable emissions are already occurring from Cheniere
- Investigations launched on 3/1/22 from the OGI videos have not been released yet.
- Complaints filed in May during massive flaring over several days were dropped and not investigated by TCEQ.
- There's too much flaring causing light pollution and emissions.
