Enterprise Products Operating Houston Terminal - Harbour Facility in Houston, Texas

Enterprise Products Operating Houston Terminal is a harbour facility located at 15602A Jacintoport Blvd in Houston, Harris County, Texas. The terminal is operational and serves as a key hub for bulk liquid cargo, supporting the region's petrochemical and energy sectors. The facility operates under the US EPA Vessel General Permit (VGP) and NPDES permit frameworks, which govern stormwater runoff and oil-water separation to protect local waterways. As a major terminal in the Houston Ship Channel, it handles significant volumes of liquid bulk, requiring robust spill prevention and containment measures. The terminal plays a critical role in the Gulf Coast energy infrastructure, connecting marine transport with pipeline and storage networks. Its location near sensitive coastal habitats necessitates careful environmental management to mitigate risks from cargo handling and stormwater discharge.

The terminal is situated along the Houston Ship Channel, a major industrial waterway that flows into Galveston Bay, a productive estuary. The area supports diverse marine life and is subject to strict stormwater management under the NPDES program. Oil-water separation and spill response plans are essential to prevent contamination from bulk liquid operations.
