Who Ya Gonna Call? Dustbusters?

From a not-so-happy camper in S. Bossier Parish ...

"Carter's grass, house and vehicle are covered in a constant blanket of dust from the activity. He says he was not notified by anyone before construction began, and his only contact with workers on the rig was when he angrily stormed into the drill site after a speeding truck narrowly avoided hitting his son."

I really don't understand how the setback from an interstate is greater than that for residences.

Love the comments on the story! I always thought there would be "growing pains" associated with the play.

Big D - The drama continues, here in today's paper operators are dissatisfied with a road they knew they would have to use. Did you find our roads to be objectionable? lol

Jonathan Scott [of Trinidad Drilling? not sure] acknowledged the road is state-owned. However, he asked police jurors before his PowerPoint presentation to work with him or steer him in the direction of state officials to bring attention to the problem.
"That road right now is a hazard," Scott said.

Think the state will take care of this, or tell the parish, by way of ignoring it, to get 'er done? Wonder how much of the parish's lease bonus(es) it will take to improve the road? I'll bet they (the parish officials) had some other plans for it. Roadwork is expensive, takes a big bite out of budgets.

thanks for the input 80)

Tuscaloosa Trend Sits On Top Of Poorest Neighbourhood For Decades - Yet No Royalties Ever Paid To The Community -- Why??

In researching the decades-old Tuscaloosa Trend and the immense wealth it has generated for many, I find it deeply troubling that this resource-rich formation runs directly beneath one of the poorest communities in North Baton Rouge—near Southern University, Louisiana—yet neither the university ( that I am aware of)  nor local residents appear to have received any compensation for the minerals extracted from their land.

This area has suffered immense environmental degradation…
