How a well pad is left after drilling...

we had a well drilled in Lincoln parish and it didn't produce the pressure they needed.  Well was pulled and abandoned in '09.  Here is a link to the satellite view of the property.  Can someone tell me if this is how a wellpad is to be left after the company is finished?

If they want to go across old pad site then that even better.

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.
