Texas HB3298 amends air quality permit requirements for concrete batch plants.

Texas HB3298 amends the Health and Safety Code to revise air quality permit requirements for concrete batch plants. The bill mandates that the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality issue a standard permit for a permanent concrete plant that meets specific operational and emission control standards. These include maintaining production records, equipping cement or fly ash storage silos with fabric or cartridge filters, ensuring filter systems meet certain efficiency standards, and limiting concrete production to 300 cubic yards per hour.
