1. Special Deals for Alcoa Aluminum Texas' Largest Grandfathered Polluter
- www.txpeer.org
- Alcoa Aluminum.
- This week the Texas Toxic Tour takes you to beautiful Central Texas, home to small towns, green fields, and to the massive Alcoa Rockdale aluminum smelter and strip mine, the largest grandfathered polluter in Texas. ...
- Travis Brown, a resident of a neighboring county near the Alcoa aluminum smelter says, "When the winds are from the north, we get days when the smell of sulfur is extremely thick. ...
- Since the 1950s, Pennsylvania-based Alcoa Inc. ... The lignite, considered so poor that it has been compared to burning dirt, is cheap fuel for Alcoa's aluminum smelter--the largest in North America. ...
- Of the four lignite-fired power plants at the Alcoa smelter, three were built before passage of much stricter air-quality controls mandated by the 1971 Texas Clean Air Act. ...
- Alcoa's Rockdale Smelter - A History of Special Deals.
- Throughout the last thirty years, the Alcoa Rockdale smelter has a history of special deals allowing them to circumvent Texas pollution regulations.
- When the Texas Legislature passed the Clean Air Act in 1971, it allowed existing plants such as Alcoa's Rockdale facility to be "grandfathered" from complying with current pollution control regulations as long as they made no major modifications in operations, facilities or fuels, or changes in the character of emissions.
- In 1979, Alcoa discovered that the lignite being mined in a new area had a much higher sulfur content than their earlier reserves, causing the plant's sulfur dioxide emissions to increase significantly. ...
- However, instead of bringing Alcoa into compliance, the Texas Air Control Board--the predecessor to Texas's current environmental regulatory agency, the Texas Natural Resource Conservation Commission (TNRCC), gave Alcoa a special deal which allowed Alcoa to discharge more sulfur dioxide than any other plant in the state. ...
- In 1992, the TNRCC reinforced Alcoa's previous special deal by changing state regulations to allow "fossil-fuel fired steam generators located in Milam County which began operation prior to 1955" to exceed sulfur dioxide emission standards. Only one industrial plant fit that description: Alcoa's Rockdale aluminum smelter. ...
- Alcoa promised to apply for a permit under Bush's CARE voluntary emissions reduction program. But to date, Alcoa has still not submitted any voluntary compliance permit application for its sulfur dioxide emissions. According to Mark Bryson, Alcoa's environmental manager, the company has no intention of lowering the amount of sulfur dioxide discharged to obtain the voluntary permit.
