[Green] Deep Rock Next Steps

Also, if you follow this link,
https://www.wellwiki.org/wiki/REDBIRD_DEVELOPMENT_LLC#Operator_Details and
click on Well ID, it will take you to a topical map that shows the location
of the well and an inspection history. Both of their injection wells seem
to be in the same location or very close to each other, if the maps are
current. There are no listed inspections for 2020 for either well.
