[Green] Fwd: Brine injection well map of Washington County

[George Banziger]

Dawn,

    Thanks very much for your persistence and patience in working with the
Division of Oil & Gas Resources Management at ODNR. I am still trying to
figure out the well-locator map. What does Mr. Schroeder mean by UIC wells?
Why can't they just provide us a list of  Class II injection wells in
Washington County with their location, owner and status? It may be that I
am too dense to figure out the map, but I am suspecting that this process
is part of their intentional obfuscation. I'll continue to work on it.

George & Gwen Banziger; 740-434-5685; 740-434-3354 (mobile)
