The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) is requiring that we submit a schedule for proceeding with an assessment and response action for the landfill (see accompanying TCEQ letter dated Oct. 12, 2009). The City has been granted an extension on the submission deadline from this original letter from TCEQ.
