Submitted by a reader: According to the TRC, the Tepsco is operator of the plant in front of the EOG plant with the flare. Owner of the Tepsco facility is Enterprise.
The tanks on the right are on the property of the Coastal Waste Disposal facility on Hwy. 2067 just next to the power station and right across the road from another storage facility. The stack (chimney) is 150 feet tall. The distance from the flare to the camera lens is about 1 mile and a half according to my estimate.

EOG operations are responsible for sickening some friends of mine.

Some people talk about the “smaller” operator or the ones that are not “responsible operators.” PAH-LEEZE! Name ONE, just ONE, responsible operator.
They are all the same and they all cut corners and cause unbearable harm.

Weatherford sucks pretty bad, too. Soon, it will be one big gas site here, well……except not near Phil King’s or Roger Williams’ homes.
