Oil Conservation Commission Wins Appeal

From an EMNRD press release, "The Oil Conservation Commission won an appeal in First Judicial District Court, County of Santa Fe, State of New Mexico against sixteen oil and gas companies that challenged the adoption of revised rules regulating surface waste management in oil and gas operations....'We are pleased with the court's decision,' said Mark Fesmire, Chair of the Oil Conservation Commission. 'Strengthening our rules on how industry handles surface waste management in oil and gas operations is about protecting public health, ground water, and the environment.'"
