HOUSTON, Nov 15 (Reuters) - A U.S. fifth circuit appeals court on Tuesday scrapped a Texas emissions permit for Sempra Energy's Port Arthur Texas LNG export terminal.
The court found that the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) failed to impose the same emissions limits on the Port Arthur plant as on other projects. The decision sends the Port Arthur LNG permit application back to the TCEQ for new evaluation. (Reporting by Curtis Williams in Houston, Editing by Franklin Paul)
