Re: Memorandum of Agreement Regarding Emergency Use of designated areas of the
Corpus Christi International Airport by Texas Commission on Environmental Quality and
Environmental Protection Agency Personnel
Dear Mr. Escobar:
The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (hereafter called TCEQ) and the
Environmental Protection Agency (hereafter called EPA) are seeking to reach an
agreement which will provide facilities for use by TCEQ and EPA personnel in the event
our Region 14 offices are rendered unusable due to an unforeseen event (Disaster) that
may require TCEQ and EPA personnel to have alternative facilities available to perform
work to accomplish emergency management and mitigation functions. This Agreement
represents the current understanding between representatives of TCEQ, EPA Region 6
and the City of Corpus Christi regarding emergency use of space at the Corpus Christi
International Airport.
This agreement is subject to the following terms and conditions:
1) The City of Corpus Christi agrees to provide space, at no cost to the TCEQ and
EPA, at the Corpus Christi International Airport, for use by TCEQ and EPA
personnel should the TCEQ and EPA offices be rendered unusable.
2) Any modifications made by TCEQ and EPA personnel to Corpus Christi
International Airport facilities shall require the consent of the Director of Aviation
or his authorized representative.
3) The Corpus Christi International Airport, TCEQ and EPA agree to exchange
information which identifies primary and alternate contacts and applicable phone

numbers or other means of communication. This information will be updated as

International Airport will be determined by mutual agreement after the scope of
the incident and the operational needs of the Corpus Christi International Airport,
TCEQ and EPA have been evaluated.

representatives of the City of Corpus Christi, TCEQ and EPA.
6) This agreement may be modified by written amendment which shall be signed by
authorized representatives of City of Corpus Christi, TCEQ and EPA.
7) The TCEQ and EPA agree to leave the property in its original condition before
the area was occupied, or modified by the TCEQ and or EPA.
A space has been provided for you to sign this agreement. This agreement is being
executed in triplicate, with a copy to be retained by each party. Following return of your
