Residents of the Texas Coastal Bend, your concerns have not gone unheard. Beyond the Bend is committed to providing information on the project so everyone can understand what it is, what it is for, and what it will achieve – like economic benefits for the local community alongside the preservation of our local environment and coastal ecosystem.
NOT ALL PIPELINES ARE CREATED EQUAL
Why we care about the Bluewater Texas Project, and why you should too.
Environmental Responsibility
-
State-of-the-art safeguards and technology to comply with America’s strict environmental regulations.
-
Systems to mitigate any potential risks at sea through software designed to detect leaks, evaluate the integrity of the pipeline, and mitigate issues that could arise offshore.
-
Over the course of a year, more than 17 local and national government agencies will be working through various regulatory issues to ensure the project meets all environmental requirements.
Sustainable
-
Extensive land surveys have been completed to avoid negative impacts to our coastal wetlands, marine life, and local property.
-
The project is using the latest technology and applications, starting with land and ocean surveying to the build-out and operation.
-
We all breathe the same air no matter if we’re in Texas or Paris. The safe, regulated, and affordable energy produced and refined here is a way we can help other nations reduce their emissions, too.
Economic Good
-
Between construction and operation, the project will bring new temporary, permanent, and supported jobs to the Coastal Bend community and beyond.
-
The increased economic output from the project will boost tax income for our local government and bring in more money for the things we care about – like school improvements, public services and roads.
