NDIC Hearing Dockets -- October, 2022

Format change.   

There are some peculiarities in the table below. The most obvious is the first case listed, #29665, which is listed three times because the oil field affected could be any one of three. There are other similar cases. 

The two spreadsheets are not consistent. 

In the process of changing the format, I learned something interesting. I will post that later.

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 Do not quote me on any of this.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.
