Local Newspaper Front Page Story: How to Read An Oil Permit

Let's see: the current boom started in North Dakota in 2006. It started in Montana (in Elm Coulee) just across the  state line in 2000.

This is a great front page story, how to read an oil permit, but it sure seems it took a long time. Okay, okay, maybe I'm a bit too snippy this morning.

But for newbies, this might be of some interest.

Minot is just east and just outside the core area of the Bakken, but the industry is moving east and will eventually get to Ward County (Minot's home). In addition, lots of oil professionals are working out of Minot, which some consider preferable to Williston, the center of the Basin.
