North and South Dakota, as well as eastern Montana is where this is reasoned to be.
I’ve been there. It ain’t pretty. Fact is mostly it sucks. It is depressed and could certainly use the jobs pulling oil out the ground there.
But you are probably right, if it is there the tree hugging greenpeace liberals from N.Y. and Rhode Island won’t allow us to get it.

Which govt official(s) and what govt ACT does it take to tell the tree huggers to GO TO HELL and go ahead and open up the area for oil drilling and exploration?

I’ve always thought that ultimately the government does what the HELL it wants, especially when matters of money and national security are involved. The government has so often done as it pleases when it comes to taking away folks land and property to use for “the greater good.” Why the heck can’t this land be explored and drilled regardless of the “greenie weenies?”

I lived there, it ain't the mountains, but the plains has its own beauty.

No doubt about this. The libs will have to come from out of state to stop this. In-staters would be flogged because of the economics.

Is it close enough to Yellowstone to use geothermal to heat the water to soften it?
