Texas HB1513 regulates the location and operation of concrete batch plants, prohibiting simultaneous operation near certain facilities.

Texas HB1513 amends the Health and Safety Code to regulate the location and operation of concrete batch plants. The bill defines "concrete batch plant" as a facility performing wet batching, dry batching, or central mixing. It mandates that the commission prohibit the operation of a concrete batch plant within 550 feet of a concrete crushing facility, a hot mix asphalt plant, or another concrete batch plant, unless the first plant began operations before September 1, 2025. The distance measurement must be taken from the nearest points of the involved facilities.
