Speaker: TPC – Air Monitoring

FullSizeRender_resized

We had a great meeting! TPC Group Sara Cronin, Mark Garza, Robert Parnell and Michelle Pyner showed a presentation regarding their mission, their commitment to all surrounding neighbors, air quality, flaring and of the Phoenix project. It was both informative and educational for all residents involved.  TPC provided breakfast for us all and has provided several resources that can be helpful to us all.

Do you have several questions around air monitoring? Although some of you are aware of TCEQ, I think there are a few resources you may find interesting. 

I’ve included the links here:

·         Houston Regional Monitoring (http://hrm.radian.com/)

·         TCEQ’s Air Pollutant Watch List (http://www.tceq.texas.gov/permitting/air/apwl/apwl.html)

·         OnAir: Houston.Org (http://houstonairquality.com/)

Flint Hills Resources – Updated event

# What happen this morning, we all heard a real big bang?  The FHR plant experienced an operational upset that caused steam relief valves to open to maintain proper steam system pressure.  These are large relief valves and when these valves open there is a significant amount of noise.  There is no threat to anyone but I am very sorry about the noise.

# That flaring is loud and black smoke. This is not routine.  The noise was from the steam system and not the flare.  There was black smoke from the flare for a brief period (less than 10 minutes).

# I check the website and there is no new message   The CAER Line message was posted at 0848 hrs.  I just called the CAER line and the message is posted correctly.  I visited the CAER line website and our message is posted there as well (message posted at 08:49:54).  See below.  Please let me know if I can help with any other questions from the neighbors.
