Formal protests have been filed against key groundwater permits tied to the proposed Evangeline project, a move that puts the project’s construction timeline in serious doubt.
According to documents shared with KRIS 6 News, the City of Sinton and St. Paul Water Supply Corporation have each formally protested Evangeline drilling and transport permit applications filed with the local Groundwater Conservation District.
The protests were circulated late Thursday night after the seller’s attorney notified parties involved that the Groundwater Conservation District’s general counsel had forwarded more than a dozen emails distributing the separate protest filings submitted on behalf of the two entities.
