Relating to the notice of a hearing to adopt a proposed rule under
the Texas Clean Air Act.
No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
SB 534 would allow the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality to provide notice for a hearing via TCEQ's website in addition to other means, including email or newspaper publication. This bill would remove the current requirement that TCEQ publish newspaper notice in at least three separate newspapers for a rule with statewide implications, and at least one newspaper of general circulation in the area the proposed rule will have an impact.
Texas Action remains neutral on SB 534 because it does not affect our liberty principles.
