HOW TO MAKE A REPORT
It is important you make your report both to the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) and to the City of Arlington. You can report to TCEQ via phone, email, or an online form. Reports to the city should be made to the gas well department. It is never a bad idea to also inform your council person that you have made a report.
