Tarrant County, reported in the 2010s

209 of the 1,920 LPST cases in Tarrant County — 10.9% — were reported during the 2010s.

How this group compares

Tarrant County holds 8.0% of the 2,603 Texas cases reported in the 2010s, while holding 6.4% of all Texas cases — so it is over-represented in this decade.

The 2010s were the era of double-walled tanks and continuous monitoring.

10 of the 209 cases from this decade in Tarrant County are still open — 4.8%. The oldest of them was reported in 2010, and 6 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.
