Enrolled Bill Summary

House Bill 555 amends the Health and Safety Code to exempt a portable facility from the requirement to publish notice of intent to obtain a permit, permit amendment, or permit review under the Texas Clean Air Act if the facility moves to a site where a portable facility has been located any time during the previous two years. The bill also specifies that a facility applying for an air emissions permit must comply with location and distance requirements as measured toward structures that are in use as of the date that the permit application is filed with the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality.
