October, 2019, NDIC Hearing Dockets

Note: this is simply some housekeeping. It appears I forgot to post the summary of the NDIC October, 2019, hearing dockets. This is "old news." The November dockets are the most recent dockets posted. [Later: my bad -- I did provide the summary earlier; I simply forgot and forgot to link it. The original summary here.]

The NDIC hearing dockets are tracked here.

The usual disclaimer applies. As usual this is done very quickly and using shorthand for my benefit. There will be factual and typographical errors on this page. Do not quote me on any of this. It's for my personal use to help me better understand the Bakken. Do not read it. If you do happen to read it, do not make any investment, financial, job, relationship, or travel plans based on anything you read here or think you may have read here. If this stuff is important to you, and I doubt that it is, but if it is, go to the source.
