Permit Rules Enforeced in Texas

"He [Al Armendariz - new regional EPA Manager for Texas SW] pulled the permit issued to the Flint Hills Resources refinery in Corpus Christi, which has been operating under permits issued by the TCEQ since 1952. The 300,000-barrel-per-day refinery, which has spent more than $2.8 billion since 1981 on “significant environmental upgrades,” must try to get a federal permit for the first time in Texas history to stay in business." From the San Angelo Standard-Times at http://www.gosanangelo.com/news/2010/jul/03/new-epa-official-shakes-up-environmental-scene/

Maybe this is a new era for peace, justice, and ... .why bother.
