Judge to Consider Suspending New Federal Drilling Rules
2015-06-23 00:24:49| Oil & Gas - Topix.net
A judge in Casper, Wyoming, is about to consider whether to suspend new rules for oil and gas drilling on federal land until a lawsuit contesting those rules can be resolved. Four states and two petroleum industry groups are suing the U.S. Interior Department, saying the rules announced in March duplicate state rules and could prove unnecessarily burdensome for the oil and gas industry.
