Texas air permit applications that moved a stage

What this page is21,329 rows held · newest sealed read 2026-08-29

• Between our 9 Aug 2026 and 29 Aug 2026 copies, 32 named Texas applications read with a different stage. The applicant, the site and the state's own permit number are on every row.
• Those moves fall into 2 different before-and-after pairs. The table below shows which sealed copy caught each one.
• Every one of them is pinned to the exact day our copy first read differently, because we seal this list on 11 of the last 14 days.
• We hold 44 sealed copies, from 10 Jul 2026 to 29 Aug 2026, and 21,329 dated Texas rows across them.

Real rows out of our sealed copies

These are rows we read out of dated copies we keep ourselves. The live source shows today only, so once a row moves, what it said before is gone from the place you would go to look.

What this page cannot tell you

• This is the Texas environment agency's own list of air permit applications waiting on a decision, and nothing else. It is not every permit in Texas, and it is not a list of factories or data centres — whoever is on the agency's list is who is on this page.
• One application means one permit number. The agency lists the same permit number twice on the same day now and then, and we count it once, so our pending totals can read one or two lower than the number of lines on the agency's own page.
• An application leaving the pending list is not proof a permit was issued. It can mean the permit was granted, that the applicant withdrew it, or that the agency stopped listing it and never said why. Those look identical from outside, so we do not sell any of them as an approval.
• The series has holes. Between 9 Aug 2026 and 29 Aug 2026 there are 5 days we hold no sealed copy for at all, across 2 breaks — the longest is 4 days after 13 Aug 2026. Anything that moved and moved back inside a hole is a change we never saw.
• There is no megawatt figure anywhere in this feed. An air permit application does not carry one, so printing one would mean making it up.
• A stage moving is not a decision, and neither is a stage going backwards. It is the wording the agency puts on its own pending list, and we print that wording rather than translating it.
• The day in the last column is the day OUR copy first read differently. The agency does not publish the day it changed anything, so that is the closest honest answer there is.
