Hummingbird Communications provided public affairs support related to the cleanup and disposition of the former Houston Chemical Plant Company. Working proactively with the client, we developed communication materials to engage key stakeholders, develop relationship and allies, and improve education about the clean-up efforts. Throughout the remediation activities, the local community was kept informed, meetings were held and concerns taken into consideration regarding the appropriate end use of the property. ABOUT THE FORMER HOUSTON CHEMICAL PLANT: Comprised of 85 acres, the former Houston Chemical Plant, was purchased by Humble Oil and Refining, (ExxonMobil), for use as a fuel terminal from 1931 until 1968; the chemical plant remained in operation until 1994. In 1999 the United States (US) Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and ExxonMobil signed an agreement to conduct a Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) investigation of the former plant property. In August 2012 the US EPA issued a new Administrative Order formalizing oversight, and in July 2018, the US EPA terminated its Administrative Order stating that ExxonMobil satisfied the Order’s requirements relative to the investigation and remediation of soil and groundwater impacts from historical plant operations. This allowed ExxonMobil to consider productive end use of the property in cooperation with all stakeholders.
