Facilities released roughly 700,000 pounds of excess emissions between Feb. 11 and Feb. 18, according to early company estimates reported to the state and analyzed by the Houston Chronicle. The data reinvigorated calls from environmental advocates for better preparation ahead of storms, which climate change is expected to make more likely.
