Waco bill seen as gutting citizen environmental evidence
Officials in Waco oppose Senate Bill 1361 which would bar citizen collected evidence from Texas environmental cases. The measure, tied to sunset legislation for the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality, faces opposition from Sierra Club and local residents who say the change weakens oversight of dairies upstream from Lake Waco and risks water quality amid algae blooms. The bill is backed by agricultural groups citing political use concerns, while EPA rules require citizen evidence in federal and delegated Texas cases.
