In this episode, Tillery Timmons-Sims interviews Gabriel Rio, President and CEO of Milestone Environmental Services. SARA is thrilled to partner with Milestone Environmental Services to make landowners aware of proposed common-sense regulations for energy waste.

Why Should You Care? The Railroad Commission of Texas oversees the energy industry in Texas. Current regulations for energy waste have not been updated since the early ‘80s. New, proposed regulations do not protect Texas soil or groundwater, leaving landowners unprotected from future contaminated sites. This common-sense proposal needs the support of Texas citizens and landowners. Please let our railroad commissioners know how you feel about this proposal by leaving a comment on their website, sending an email, or mailing a letter. The deadline to comment is October 15.
