Summary
The EPA said no to requests from an environmental group that wanted to block air permits for Terra Energy’s Mamm Creek and Bailey Compressor Stations in Colorado. This means the stations can keep operating under their current permits, with no new costs or changes for now. If anyone wants to challenge this decision, they have until May 11, 2026, to take it to court.
