30 Tex. Admin. Code § 70.2 - Definitions
Unless specifically defined in this chapter, all terms used in these rules bear the same definitions ascribed by the Texas Water Code, the Texas Health and Safety Code, the APA, and commission rules. The terms specifically defined for the purposes of this chapter are as follows.

which the executive director seeks an enforcement order and the respondent has
an opportunity for an adjudicative hearing.
(2) Executive director's preliminary report
(EDPR)-A pleading filed by the executive director which, when issued and served

action for an enforcement order against a respondent. When an EDPR is filed and
issued under this chapter the EDPR and notice constitute a petition, as do
amended EDPRs and amended or supplemental petitions.

executive director is seeking an enforcement order.
