The Center for Biological Diversity filed notice today of its intent to sue the Environmental Protection Agency for failing to respond to the Center’s challenge to the methods used to control toxic air pollution at a facility that disposes of liquid waste from fracking and oil and gas production. The notice comes after the EPA missed the Jan. 22, 2023 deadline to respond to a petition submitted by the Center and Grand Valley Citizens Alliance in November. In the petition, the groups argued that a new permit held by the Parachute Water Management Facility fails to require the plant to measure and document the effectiveness of flares used to burn off toxic pollution resulting from storage and processing of the fossil fuel waste products.
