Texas physicians and environmental organizations are petitioning the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality to reduce smog-forming pollutants from the three old Luminant coal plants to the same level required of the newer plants. For those of us who live in Dallas-Fort Worth and in East Texas, these plants have a significant impact on our community’s public health. These new rules are essential in protecting our health. Please add my name to those signing the TCEQ petition for Docket No. 2013-1612-RUL.
Thank you.
I believe respiratory illnesses are escalating in Northeast Texas. Anything that can be done to reduce air pollution can only help decrease these problems.
