Mitchell Lake oversight flags potential TWCB rule violations
Texas Water Quality Board interoffice memos allege San Antonio may have violated the special purpose statute by failing to operate Mitchell Lake per TWCB rules and to remove sludge by the 1975 deadline. Memos say the city still receives raw sewage bypasses and discharges, and sludge removal continued this fall despite the deadline. The board plans a December hearing on permit amendments to add a compliance schedule and change discharge conditions, with a January appearance by city officials to address possible non compliance.
