On Tuesday, the Save Our Springs Alliance is headed to the Texas Supreme Court to fight the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality over a permit to release 800,000 gallons of treated sewage into Onion Creek each day. The fight, which started in 2019, is headed to the supreme court where the Court of Appeals’ decision to allow the permit to go through could be overturned and the Travis County ruling, which rejected the permit, could be reinstated. SOS has asked supporters to join them in court at 9 a.m. Oct. 1 at the Supreme Court Building at the corner of 14th Street and Colorado Avenue.
