Mission Statement:

The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality strives to protect our state's public health and natural resources consistent with sustainable economic development. Our goal is clean air, clean water, and the safe management of waste.

Agency Philosophy:

• base decisions on the law, common sense, sound science, and fiscal responsibility;
• ensure that regulations are necessary, effective, and current;
• apply regulations clearly and consistently;
• ensure consistent, just, and timely enforcement when environmental laws are violated;
• ensure meaningful public participation in the decision-making process;
• promote and foster voluntary compliance with environmental laws and provide flexibility in achieving environmental goals; and
• hire, develop, and retain a high-quality, diverse workforce.

EEO Commitment:

The TCEQ is an equal opportunity employer. The agency does not allow discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, national origin, sex, disability, age, sexual orientation or veteran status.
