Thanks for posting this explanation.
If I had to depend on MSM to learn anything about what is actually going on, and why, (and not & why not) with the mitigation efforts, I’d be ignorant the rest of 3 life times.
BTW, not sure if you’ve heard, but last week the town of Faith, SD (60 miles S of ND; 100 miles W of MT) was drilling a municpal deep water well, and struck oil instead, somewhere around 2,500-3,000’ down. A Denver exploration company is now contracted to do follow up.
I hacn’t heard that they had found oil in Faith. That’s pretty neat. They are well outside the Bakken/Three forks area in the Williston Basin. Hopefully, the area will get an economic boost from that.
