  • Deer Park Community Advisory Council Monday, December 2, 2019 DPCAC Hears Update on Transportation Projects
    Deer Park Community Advisory Council Monday, December 2, 2019 DPCAC Hears Update on Transportation Projects Representatives of three governmental entities responsible for Deer Park area roads, bridge, tunnel, and ferry updated Deer Park Community Advisory Council (DPCAC) in early December on work underway and planned for State Highways 225 and 146, Beltway 8 and the Houston Ship Channel Bridge, the Washburn Tunnel, and the Lynchburg Ferry. Of particular interest to both community and plant members was expansion of the Houston Ship Channel Bridge and its connections to SH 225. The new southbound bridge is under construction. When complete, traffic will be moved to it while the current bridge is demolished, and a new northbound structure is built. Bridge completion is currently planned for 2024. TxDOT is working with Harris County Toll Road Authority to plan the connections because construction must be coordinated with bridge completion. Because the status of construction projects changes frequently, DPCAC recommends the following website and social media resources to those seeking up-to-date information on local transportation projects: The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) manages construction and maintenance for State Highways 225 and 146.

Berkowitz,1 W. C. Kuster,2 P. D. Goldan,2 E. J. Williams,2 F. C. Fesenfeld,2 E. C. Apel,3 T. Karl,3 W. A. Lonneman,4 and D. Riemer5 Received 9 April 2004; revised 20 August 2004; accepted 14 October 2004; published 22 December 2004. [1] Observations of C1-C10 hydrocarbon mixing ratios measured by in situ instrumentation at the La Porte super site during the TexAQS 2000 field experiment are reported. The La Porte data were compared to a roadway vehicle exhaust signature obtained from canister samples collected in the Houston Washburn tunnel during the same summer to better understand the impact of petrochemical emissions of hydrocarbons at the site. It is shown that the abundance of ethene, propene, 1-butene, C2-C4 alkanes, hexane, cyclohexane, methylcyclohexane, isopropylbenzene, and styrene at La Porte were systematically affected by petrochemical industry emissions. Coherent power law relationships between frequency distribution widths of hydrocarbon mixing ratios and their local lifetimes clearly identify two major source groups, roadway vehicle emissions and industrial emissions. Distributions of most aromatics and long chain alkanes were consistent with roadway vehicle emissions as the dominant source. Air mass reactivity was generally dominated by C1-C3 aldehydes. Propene and ethene sometimes dominated air mass reactivity with HO loss frequencies often greater than 10 sÀ1. Ozone mixing ratios near 200 ppbv were observed on two separate occasions, and these air masses appear to have been affected by industrial emissions of alkenes from the Houston Ship Channel.
