You think objectively reporting 330 barrels of water per hour with 154k ppm saltwater and having to dig 20 containment pits and have trucks which costs $2.5 mil to clean up is an agenda? Sounds to me like it was solely objective reporting that you're trying to put a twist on it that it has an agenda

As part of my Masters, I collected plants in North La. While driving down a road west of Homer, my professor slammed on the brakes and said, "what the heck is that?" It was a 10 acre low lying edge of a field covered in a marsh "grass" from south louisiana. We drudge through it collecting specimens and getting cut up by the grass (sedge) edges. We identified it as a sedge that only grew in the along the coast in swamps.
There were a lot of oil and gas drilling in the area. Apparently, there was a salt water intrusion, and some ducks from south Louisiana flew in with some seeds. It was pretty cool, but I had to explain it to numerous botanists later because it really looked odd on distribution maps.
Point being, salt water intrusion has a long history, lawmakers and lawyers looking to make money is the problem

I think she is an LSU grad. Isn’t she running for Reeves County DA also? She’s been exposing ghost wells

Which will end up turning into salt or calcium as the na-hypochlorite or ca-hypochlorite degrades. Lol. Not the eco disaster they were hoping for.

True for bigger operators but there are some PE backed ones that are dumpster fires and DGAF about anything other than cutting expenses.

It is for the land owner. Nothings going to grow there for a long time.

Catastrophic ?????????? not a big deal. Thats a naturally crappy area of desert land for hundreds of miles. Needs to be cleaned up. okey. The Palestine , Penn, burning of the tank cars, now that was a catastrophic event.

Yeah somewhere below the surface somebody’s plug failed. Or they did a shitty job on location of the injection zone.
They were never set correctly to begin with and the RRC allowed operators to pencil whip forms. Didn’t start really enforcing the rules until recently. Try even filling an H5 today on a well over 10 years old and it’s kicked back for missing data that should have been collected and policed.
There’s not enough accountability for the previous operators of record, the individuals that signed off, or the government cronies that allowed it to happen.
TLDR: the RRC leadership has always sucked and gotten rich and now actually is being forced to do their damn jobs.

This. But, also failure of the plugs or cement used.

Yep. We’ve had a well leaking at the packing for years and they won’t do shite.

Sounds like someone wants to make some money quick.

don't be shocked when Obiden uses the EPA to shut down oil production in Texas in furtherance of their war on "fossil fuels"

Hogs dying would be nice. But no deer or cattle might be an issue.

I have never met an environmentalist who does not use some product produced from oil.
They are either extremely ignorant or hypocrites.
This doesn’t make them ignorant or hypocritical. There are plenty of environmentalists who have nuanced views of oil and gas. The ones who rigidly want to ban it probably fit your description, but what you are doing is typical of radical partisans. You are assigning the most outlandish viewpoints on the other side to anyone who disagrees with you.
They do a similar thing. They say that everyone who does not want to radically minimize oil and gas production is intent on destroying the world to make a transitory profit. Pretty stupid, huh?

There is less than a zero % chance of this possibility and anyone who believes this needs to stop reading whatever garbage is feeding their paranoia.

Farming in arid plateaus with aquifer water is killing the aquifer.
There is enough farm land in US which don't need dams and aquifer water to farm.
