APPEAL FROM 419TH DISTRICT COURT OF TRAVIS COUNTY BEFORE JUSTICES PURYEAR, GOODWIN, AND FIELD AFFIRMED IN PART; REVERSED IN PART; AND DISMISSED – OPINION BY JUSTICE FIELD

This is an appeal from the interlocutory order signed by the trial court on December 9, 2015.

Having reviewed the record and the parties’ arguments, the Court holds that there was reversible error in the court’s order. Therefore, the Court reverses the portions of the trial court’s order denying the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality’s plea to the jurisdiction, affirms the portions of the order that grant the plea, and dismisses A. I. Divestitures, Inc.’s suit for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. A. I. Divestitures, Inc. shall pay all costs relating to this appeal, both in this Court and the court below.
