This original project specifically included the Brennan Avenue Groundwater Remediation Project.

TCEQ ordered the City to address the environmental issues as identified in the LPST ID No. 95012 case filed against the City in August 2008. The City, has identified a remediation plan to satisfy TCEQ's concerns that should resolve this case. This Amendment No. Four (4) will provide for additional time and funding for completing the necessary professional environmental engineering services and necessary corrective actions to achieve regulatory compliance and case closure from the TCEQ by extending the contract term by an additional 24 months.
