Angelina County, reported in the 1990s

115 of the 183 LPST cases in Angelina County — 62.8% — were reported during the 1990s.

How this group compares

Angelina County holds 0.6% of the 17,926 Texas cases reported in the 1990s, while holding 0.6% of all Texas cases — so it is over-represented in this decade.

The 1990s were the decade the federal deadline fell. Owners had to remove or upgrade their tanks, and pulling a tank out of the ground is how a leak gets discovered. Six of every ten Texas cases were reported in these ten years.

1 of the 115 cases from this decade in Angelina County are still open — 0.9%. The oldest of them was reported in 1994, and 0 were reported in 2015 or later.

That spread matters more than the count. An open case from the 1990s usually means a long remediation that was never formally closed; one from last year means something recent. The file records the two dates and nothing else — not the substance, not the extent, not what is left to do. How to read an open case.
