Regarding the outer continental shelf, we are hopeful that Shell will continue to upgrade their equipment as quickly as possible in order to continue their plan of exceeding federal and state requirements.

It is believed that this piece of land, roughly 1.5 million acres, contains billions of barrels of oil. All legislation related to the 1002 Coastal Plain calls for a limit of 2,000 surface acres for equipment and site pads. This means that less than 1% of the 1002 Coastal Plain would be impacted by surface development. This stretch of land is immediately next to state land where the same development has existed for decades. Headlines - Headlines Wed, 20 Feb 2013 00:55:21 +0100
