Case Title and Court: Harris County, Texas, and the State of Texas, a Necessary and Indispensable Party v. Texcon Ready Mix, Inc., US Readymix Inc., and Texas Concrete Enterprise, LLC; Cause No. 2024-01367, in the 11th District Court of Harris County, Texas.
Background: Defendant Texcon Ready Mix, Inc. ("Texcon Ready Mix") operates a concrete batch plant located at 3315 Carr Street, Houston, Texas 77026 (the "Facility"). The Facility operates under Texas Commission on Environmental Quality ("TCEQ") air and water permits. Over the course of multiple investigations conducted from October 6, 2020, to July 18, 2023, Harris County Pollution Control Services documented permit violations at the Facility. Texcon Ready Mix was the TCEQ air permit holder until May 19, 2024, when the permit was transferred to US Readymix, Inc. (US Readymix"). The permit was then transferred to Texas Concrete Enterprise, LLC ("Texas Concrete Enterprise") on June 9, 2024. On January 9, 2024, Harris County, Texas filed suit against Texcon Ready Mix for violations of the Texas Health and Safety Code, Texas Water Code, TCEQ rules, and TCEQ permits. The State of Texas, acting on behalf of the TCEQ, joined the lawsuit as a necessary and indispensable party. On December 10, 2024, Harris County named US Readymix, Inc. and Texas Concrete Enterprise, LLC as additional defendants in the lawsuit. The State, Harris County, US Readymix, and Texas Concrete Enterprise have reached an agreement to resolve the pending claims against US Readymix and Texas Concrete Enterprise.
Proposed Settlement: The State, Harris County, US Readymix, and Texas Concrete Enterprise propose an Agreed Judgment that awards the State and Harris County the following monetary judgments against US Readymix and Texas Concrete Enterprise, jointly and severally: $12,000.00 in civil penalties, to be divided equally between the State and Harris County, and $3,000.00 in attorney's fees, to be divided equally between the State and Harris County.
For a complete description of the proposed settlement, the Agreed Judgment should be reviewed in its entirety. Requests for copies of the proposed judgment and settlement, and written comments on the same, should be directed to Shelby Thompson, Assistant Attorney General, Office of the Texas Attorney General, P. O. Box 12548, MC-066, Austin, Texas 78711-2548, (512) 463-2012, facsimile (512) 320-0911, email: Shelby.Thompson@oag.texas.gov.

Notice of Adoption of Best Management Practices for Certain Operational Issues at Aggregate Production Operations
The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) has adopted and published on its website a list of general Best Management Practices (BMPs) for certain operational issues at Aggregate Production Operations (APOs). These operational issues include those related to dust control, water use, and water storage.
TCEQ has statutory jurisdiction to regulate aspects of APO operations in the State of Texas, and it does so through several different programs, permits, and regulations. By publishing a list of APO BMPs, TCEQ provides helpful recommendations for addressing common operational issues within the agency's jurisdiction, and it helps explain when TCEQ requirements may apply.
This adoption of APO BMPs follows TCEQ having proposed a list of BMPs and solicited feedback from the public about the proposal. The proposal was made available for review and announced in the December 20, 2024 issue of the Texas Register (49 TexReg 10418). TCEQ reviewed the feedback received and made edits to the BMP information where useful and appropriate.
The adopted list of general APO BMPs can be found on TCEQ's public website at: https://www.tceq.texas.gov/assistance/industry/aggregate-production/best-management-practices.

Texas Automobile Insurance Plan Association - Notice of Rate Filing
Description:
On April 22, 2026, the Texas Automobile Insurance Plan Association (TAIPA) filed a request to charge new insurance rates for private passenger auto and commercial auto coverage. The filed rates represent a 2.8% increase in private passenger automobile rates and a 4.9% increase in commercial automobile rates. TAIPA proposed an effective date of November 1, 2026, for new and renewal business.
The commissioner of insurance will review the filing to determine whether TAIPA's proposed rates are just, reasonable, adequate, not excessive, not confiscatory, and not unfairly discriminatory for the risks covered, as required by Insurance Code §2151.201. TAIPA's proposed rates must also be sufficient to carry all claims to maturity and meet the expenses incurred in writing and servicing the business.
TAIPA's average proposed rate changes by coverage do not exceed 5%, so a hearing is not required by Insurance Code §2151.2041.
In accordance with Insurance Code §2151.2022(c), the commissioner has extended the period by which the filing must be approved or disapproved by 30 days. The filing must be approved or disapproved no later than June 21, 2026.

If the claim is validated by the Texas Lottery, a check shall be forwarded to the claimant in the amount due. In the event the claim is not validated, the claim shall be denied and the claimant shall be notified promptly. A claimant may also claim any of the above prizes under the procedure described in Section 2.3.B and Section 2.3.C of these Game Procedures.
B. To claim a "SUPER LOTERIA" Scratch Ticket Game prize of $5,000 or $100,000, the claimant must sign the winning Scratch Ticket and may present it at one of the Texas Lottery's Claim Centers.

When paying a prize of $600 or more, the Texas Lottery shall file the appropriate income reporting form with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and shall withhold federal income tax at a rate set by the IRS if required. In the event that the claim is not validated by the Texas Lottery, the claim shall be denied and the claimant shall be notified promptly.
C. As an alternative method of claiming a "SUPER LOTERIA" Scratch Ticket Game prize, the claimant may submit the signed winning Scratch Ticket and a thoroughly completed claim form via mail.

Mail all to: Texas Lottery, P.O. Box 16600, Austin, Texas 78761-6600. The Texas Lottery is not responsible for Scratch Tickets lost in the mail. In the event that the claim is not validated by the Texas Lottery, the claim shall be denied and the claimant shall be notified promptly.
D. Prior to payment by the Texas Lottery of any prize, the Texas Lottery shall deduct the amount of a delinquent tax or other money from the winnings of a prize winner who has been finally determined to be:

B. if there is any question regarding the identity of the claimant;
C. if there is any question regarding the validity of the Scratch Ticket presented for payment; or
D. if the claim is subject to any deduction from the payment otherwise due, as described in Section 2.3.D of these Game Procedures. No liability for interest for any delay shall accrue to the benefit of the claimant pending payment of the claim.
2.5 Payment of Prizes to Persons Under 18. If a person under the age of 18 years is entitled to a cash prize under $600 from the "SUPER LOTERIA" Scratch Ticket Game, the Texas Lottery shall deliver to an adult member of the minor's family or the minor's guardian a check or warrant in the amount of the prize payable to the order of the minor.
2.6 If a person under the age of 18 years is entitled to a cash prize of $600 or more from the "SUPER LOTERIA" Scratch Ticket Game, the Texas Lottery shall deposit the amount of the prize in a custodial bank account, with an adult member of the minor's family or the minor's guardian serving as custodian for the minor.
2.7 Scratch Ticket Claim Period. All Scratch Ticket prizes must be claimed within 180 days following the end of the Scratch Ticket Game or within the applicable time period for certain eligible military personnel as set forth in Texas Government Code §466.408. Any rights to a prize that is not claimed within that period, and in the manner specified in these Game Procedures and on the back of each Scratch Ticket, shall be forfeited.
2.8 Disclaimer. The number of prizes in a game is approximate based on the number of Scratch Tickets ordered.

When a signature is placed on the back of the Scratch Ticket in the space designated, the player whose signature appears in that area shall be the owner of the Scratch Ticket and shall be entitled to any prize attributable thereto. Notwithstanding any name or names submitted on a claim form, the Executive Director shall make payment to the player whose signature appears on the back of the Scratch Ticket in the space designated. If more than one name appears on the back of the Scratch Ticket, the Executive Director will require that one of those players whose name appears thereon be designated by such players to receive payment.
