Enerplus With Six New LK-Bice Permits; Twenty-Three Permits Renewed -- August 9, 2022

Pet peeve: all the Biden headlines that say the price of gasoline has dropped for 56 consecutive days, while I'm paying $4.69 / gallon for gasoline here in Portland, OR. The good news: if the Oregonians still vote to keep the incumbents in this November, it tells me they are fine with expensive gasoline.
