 Gov. Browns administration has submitted proposed changes to SB 4 - the only live fracking bill in the legislature. Sen Fran Pavley, who penned SB 4 says there are problems with the changes.
Would these changes make it easier for oil companies to frack if SB 4 passes? The industry has consistently said local governments should not regulate fracking and wait for the state regulators... meaning the Division of Oil, Gas and Geothermal REsources to pass their rules that are in the creation phase right now. But some legislators (and many citizens) argue that DOGGR failed in the past to regulate this well completion technique and are wary of depending on them now. See the VC Star article.
