Effluent limits and exceedances

Inspections, violations and enforcement

EPA’s single-event violation file, as loaded, holds no violation for NPDES TX0125008.

Velarion’s copy of EPA’s ICIS-NPDES files does not include the inspections, formal enforcement actions and informal enforcement actions files, so this page shows none of them. EPA’s free Detailed Facility Report on ECHO lists this permit’s inspections, enforcement actions and penalties.
