Judge denies injunctive plea over Agua Dulce gas order

Plaintiffs Clymore Production Nueces Refining and Matson Nixon seek to continue gasoline stripping. The court found evidence insufficient to show the order unconstitutional, and the commission's authority to limit sweet gas use and permit residue venting remains in effect.
