TCEQ denies hearing request and issues Quadvest wastewater permit
Summary
The commission denied a hearing request from Robert Humphrey and approved a new TPDES permit to Quadvest LP for treated domestic wastewater up to 500,000 gallons per day, adopting the executive director's response to comments.
The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality on Feb. 13 denied a hearing request from Robert Humphrey and approved a new TPDES permit (WQ0016143001) for Quadvest LP, which would authorize discharging up to 500,000 gallons per day of treated domestic wastewater in its final phase.
Staff reported that Humphrey's concern was limited to the characterization of the original discharge route; the applicant corrected the route and the executive director reissued and re-noticed the application. Humphrey did not provide additional concerns or explain how the permit might affect him personally, and the commission found he had not demonstrated the required individualized interest to qualify as an affected person. The commission adopted the executive director's response to comments and issued the permit as recommended.
The motion to deny the hearing request and issue the permit passed on an affirmative vote. The record notes that parties who signed in were noted for the record and that no oral argument would be taken at the commission meeting.
Specific monitoring, conditions or timelines in the issued permit were not detailed in the commission's discussion recorded in the transcript.
