Air and now water concerns are being monitored in the aftermath of the Shell Deer Park fire. While there was no one killed, the company's silence for almost three days after the disaster loomed large.Shell said it has "regrets" on how it handled the response to last Friday's fire in Deer Park after not answering media questions until 70 hours after the ordeal.
"Our intention was to be there," Nate Levin, Shell Deer Park's general manager, said. "We were actually on our way to the press conference on Friday and there was a miscommunication on our side and that's a regret." Fifteen workers had to receive medical treatment. The company, county, state and federal agencies are monitoring the air. So far, they haven't found any concerns.
TCEQ has looked into the Shell facility before. 13 Investigates discovered a handful of previous violations within the past few years, where the company was hit with tens of thousands of dollars of fines after the TCEQ said the "emissions events" could've been avoided by better practices.
