• Houston Ship Channel work affects pipelines.

Renovation and expansion of a 39-mile portion of the Houston Ship Channel will mandate the relocation of an estimated 90 pipelines. The Port of Houston Authority has invested $562 million on the project and will be responsible for the design and construction management of the disposal facilities in the bay. The ship channel is being renovated for safety reasons, since expansion connotes accommodation of larger vessels, and competitive reasons because larger vessels mean increased loading and additional cargo.

• Bank, Partner Say Man Swindled Them Out of Millions

With $1,000 in his pocket and a wrecked speedboat sinking somewhere off shore, Larry "Mike" Nixon sat on the banks of the Houston ship channel and collected his thoughts. Minutes earlier, Nixon's speedboat -- dubbed "Living Extra Fast" - - threw him overboard after hitting a wave. Nixon swam away in the dark, and his unmanned boat crashed into a barge.

• Separate but Toxic

Climb into Juan Parras' rickety Jeep Cherokee, and he'll show you around the neighborhood. He calls it his "toxic tour." Parras lives in Houston's East End, the poorer, predominantly minority side of town that borders the Houston Ship Channel. A former union rep, he now heads an environmental nonprofit in the East End called Texas Environmental Justice Advocacy Services (TEJAS) that wants the roughly 30 refineries and chemical plants in the East End to reduce their emissions. Clad in a green vest and cap, Parras steers the Jeep through a maze of back streets and overpasses to the environmental hot spots that worry him the most: two federal Superfund sites-one with chemicals still leaking from barrels; the bayous flooded with trash; an elementary school three blocks from the steaming Val...
