I am opposed to air quality permit 165848 and requesting a "public meeting." As a member of NORTH SAN GABRIEL ALLIANCE, I firmly believe that there is great risk of air and water pollution from the hazardous chemical processing plant under development by Exfluor Research Corporation on Williamson County Road 236. This pending Exfluor Research Corporation location is surrounded by 150+ family residences, including historical farms, ranches, and homes, water recreation areas, agricultural lands, and wildlife conservation areas. The North Fork of the San Gabriel River runs through the area, and downstream to Lake Georgetown and Lake Granger, then into the Brazos River and on to the Gulf of Mexico. The City of Georgetown and the City of Round Rock obtain drinking water from Lake Georgetown. Toxic chemical pollution from such a facility could permanently affect people, homes, land, and agriculture nearby, as well as downstream in the river drainages. Such a facility should not be located anywhere in the area of the North Fork of the San Gabriel River. This rural area is primarily residential, agricultural, and widely used for recreation activities. This is not an industrial area. I call upon the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) to RESCIND its preliminary decision and DENY the draft air quality permit for the announced Exfluor Research Corporation chemical manufacturing facility on County Road 236.
