nat gas well pressure

Typically, what kind of pressure can be expected from a nat gas well, when first drilled? does it vary per well?
Is the pressure regulated by valves? If so, what is the reccomended pressure for production? Then, what size choke is used to drop the pressure to reccomended levels? Are these levels state? or federal mandated? And how long does it take to equalize pessure?

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…
