Haynesville Shale activity slowing down in Desoto?

Is it true that the Haynesville shale drilling is slowing down in DeSoto Parish?

I also heard that Chesapeake is not going to build their new site at I49 and Hwy 84.  Is that true also?

Development activity has remained relatively constant in DeSoto Parish throughout 2010 though it is expected to slow this year.  The best means to look at real figures and discount rumors is the DNR Haynesville portion of the state database.  For a quick read, this is the best and easiest to understand.  Keep in mind that these are figures for the entire play and not just DeSoto.  Much of the increase in permits from Nov. to Dec. should be in southern areas of the Play.

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…
