While government authorities are tasked with investigating industrial accidents, those efforts, particularly here in Texas, are often triggered by industry âself-reporting.â But how does that work exactly? And how far do we defer to and trust companies to report accidents?
We talk about the concept of industry self-reporting, consider some recent examples, and welcome your thoughts for Houston Public Media’s State Impact reporter for energy and the environment, Dave Fehling. Then, we talk with Dr. Neil Carman, Clean Air Program Director with the Sierra Clubâs Lone Star Chapter about his organization’s concerns with the concept.
