  • Legislative Update: New Texas Laws Affecting the Environment Or Environmental Regulation by Anthony Cavender, Amanda G
    Client Alert Environment, Land Use & Natural Resources Client Alert Environment, Land Use & Natural Resources June 12, 2013 Legislative Update: New Texas Laws Affecting the Environment or Environmental Regulation By Anthony Cavender, Amanda G. Halter and Nicholas M. Krohn This Texas legislative session brought several notable environment- and energy-related changes. The major standouts are culled and summarized in this Pillsbury Legislative Update. Txdot Authorized to Conduct NEPA Reviews of Transportation Projects The Transportation Code was amended to authorize the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) to assume the duties of the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) with respect to Texas transportation projects under the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA). TxDOT is also now authorized to enter into agreements with the USDOT to exclude certain highway projects from environmental assessment and impact statement requirements. TxDOT may adopt rules and standards for implementing these new authorities. Signed by Governor Perry and effective May 18, 2013. Bill: SB 466 Key legislators: Sen. Juan “Chuy” Hinojosa (D – Dist. 20), McAllen; Sen. Robert Nichols (R – Dist. 3), Jacksonville Audit Privilege Act Immunity Extended to New Property Owners The Texas Environmental, Health, and Safety Audit Privilege Act provides that certain documents and information may be privileged when they are collected as part of an environmental self-audit of facilities regulated by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ). The Act also grants certain immunities from administrative and civil penalties for health and safety violations voluntarily disclosed and timely corrected. The Act currently provides these benefits only to facility owners and operators. This session’s amendment expands the reach to new owners who begin audits in connection with their pre- acquisition investigations.
