NOTICE...or not

A few days ago, the NCTCA told you about the TCEQ  web conference concerning items that THE PEOPLE should know.

We received this email from one of our readers, we have replaced the author's name with THE PEOPLE, otherwise nothing has changed.  Funny, that sounds similar to the Fort Worth Way.

Is there a road trip being planned for the 14th? 

Thanks for giving us one business day of notice to discover you are holding a web conference to be viewed in an unknown out of town location.

I don't know why you bother at all. How would you like to drive by a fracturing well and be anesthetized by Chesapeake's ethylene glycol, medical general anesthetic and scale preventer. Google: OSHA+name of frac chemical ENTER and be as surprised as I was!

Very disappointed in your planning!

THE PEOPLE

THE PEOPLE,
I regret that you received such short notice about the public meetings and webcast concerning the oil and gas rule proposals. The TCEQ is dedicated to providing timely public information about air pollution issues. The notice for the video teleconferences was posted to our air permitting website on July 30, and the notice of the webcast was added on August 20. If this information was not easily accessible we want to improve and welcome suggestions. I have included a web link which will bring you directly to information concerning the oil and gas proposal for future reference.

The formal public hearing for the oil and gas proposal is in Austin on September 14. This web link also includes information about the submittal of formal comments, and we do welcome these comments. Please let me know if I can provide you any information concerning this proposal.
