Oklahoma Oil and Gas Injection Regulations Come Under Fire

Jennifer Loren of the Oklahoma Impact Team reports for Tulsa's NewsOn6 

February 21, 2012

 

"There are an estimated 11,000 private and commercial injection and disposal
wells in Oklahoma. Each year those wells are injected with billions of
gallons of oil and gas wastewater. According to the Oklahoma Corporation
Commission commercial disposal wells pumped at least 8.8 billion gallons of
wastewater into the earth in the last two years. A spokesperson for the
Corporation Commission said they have not tallied the amount of water
injected through private wells." One of those operations may have ruined the
well water of Rusty Russell.
