DISH TX Calls For Five Natural Gas Compression Stations to Halt Operations


Based on results of recent air study, local officials in the town of DISH, TX have asked operators for a safety stand down


DISH, TX -- The results of a DISH, Texas municipal Ambient Air Quality Study recently revealed high concentrations of toxic air emissions, including neurotoxins and carcinogens, near and on residential properties in the small town of DISH, Texas. In a letter sent to company officials dated November 16, 2009, local officials from the Town of DISH have asked operators to cease and desist operations, until they can guarantee the safety of area citizens. This letter was sent to company officials from: Texas Midstream Gas Services, LLC; Enbridge Holdings, LLC; Energy Transfer Partners; Atmos – Pipeline Texas and Crosstex Energy Services. To date one of the companies in question have not responded to this request.

DISH is located in the epicenter of the Barnett Shale gas play and is home to a megacomplex of compressor stations, as well as pipelines, metering stations, gathering lines and gas wells. The Town of DISH's air study sampled air at seven locations from August 17 to 18, 2009. The results of this analysis revealed high concentrations of carcinogenic and neurotoxin compounds near and on residential properties. The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) has performed subsequent studies that validated these concerns.

  1. I was curious if you ever considered changing the layout of your website?
    Its very well written; I love what youve got to say. But
    maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with
    it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having 1
    or two images. Maybe you could space it out better?

  3. If something is starting to mold, use your best
    judgment, but sometimes just cutting off the moldy part makes the rest
    salvageable as juice. But both juicers are durable enough to outlast every $300+ juicer I've had. There are many varieties of apples to choose from, so you are sure to.

  5. Hello! Quick question that's entirely off topic.

    Do you know how to make your site mobile friendly?

    to resolve this problem. If you have any recommendations, please share.

    Cheers!
