The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality has formally proposed
beefing up regulations on oil and gas drilling in the state's Barnett
Shale region.
The rules were proposed on Wednesday. The proposal now enters a public
comment period. The new rules are expected to go into effect Feb. 1.
The new rules are meant to strengthen technical drilling requirements
and oversight of the oil and gas facilities. Many facilities are near
urban areas.
TCEQ has been accused of having weak regulations, contributing to air
pollution.
The TCEQ now has four monitors that measure pollution in areas that
have a lot of drilling. Hourly results are posted on an agency
website. The commission also plans to install three additional
monitors.
