This is what will be happening EVERYWHERE with complete CORPORATE control. Oil and gas interests are in control here, in your area, it will be something else.

But lets let corporations take over. Free the regulations!

Louisiana oil and gas chief resigns
Sinkhole situation: DNR searching for answers
09 August 2012 19:43 GMT

Scott Angelle, who headed the agency that regulates oil and gas in Louisiana, says he has left his job to run for office as the department struggles to understand and mitigate a giant sinkhole threatening to wreak havoc on oil infrastructure in south Louisiana.
In a statement Thursday morning, Governor Bobby Jindal announced that coastal management assistant secretary Stephen Chustz would be serving as interim director of the Louisiana Department of Natural Resources following Angelle's resignation.

-
Angelle's departure also comes amid a worsening situation in Assumption Parish as the sinkhole swallowed whole trees and grew to 392 feet wide and 422 feet deep, with the slurry topped by floating diesel.

Panicked residents were evacuated as the state ordered Texas Brine, an area cavern operator, to investigate the integrity of a brine cavern it operated in the salt dome.

"We’re proceeding to determine the cause of the sinkhole and determine whether or not it is related to the inactive brine cavern that is in close proximity," said Sonny Cranch, a spokesman for Texas Brine

Some of the earthquakes we will be experiencing are not going to be from Faults, but from MAGMA meeting METHANE. The resulting explosions will be producing earthquakes high up the scale, and in areas not known for quakes, as they won't just be near or on, faults.

Keep that in mind.

2011 letter evidences cavern near sinkhole failed integrity test

According to Mitchell, Texas Brine Co. Saltville LLC president Mark J. Cartwright informed DNR in a January 21, 2011 letter about a failed integrity test of the cavern and company officials’ suspicion that the cavern possibly breached Napoleonville Dome’s outer wall, possibly explaining a loss of pressure in the cavern during the test.

“One obvious concern is the cavern’s proximity to the edge of salt,” Cartwright wrote to DNR’s Joseph “Joe” S. Ball Jr., director of DNR Injection and Mining Division that oversees salt caverns. “There have been several studies in this regard, and Texas Brine has mapped the salt boundary near the cavern applying available well log data, seismic data, and most recently, vertical seismic data gathered during the workover. At this time, a breach out of the salt dome appears possible.”

 Quoting: j. 19230243


"Since June, the community centered within the latest south Louisiana oil and gas disaster, Bayou Corne has been having earthquakes caused by a powerful but unknown underground source.

"They're very possibly related. One of the ways they might be related is that the earthquakes are the things that happen first and the gas may bubble out just because of all the shaking, but we don't know that and it could be something else as well," said Stephen Horton, a University of Memphis researcher.

U.S. Geological Survey seismological recordings from a station near the northern Assumption Parish community of Bayou Corne show a series of earthquakes occurred on June 8 and July 3, Horton told locals, as reported by the Advocate.

The USGS station was then picking up quakes as far away as White Castle, about five miles from Bayou Corne."


Looks like USGS has been keeping these quakes off the maps and away from the public.hiding

12.7 billion cubic feet of gas.. that would be enough to put most of Louisiana in orbit. blobr

The rest of North America would end up as a big steaming crater. I suppose if there's ne "good news" to be gleaned from this.. the 200 ft tsunami created from the tops popping off the wells in the Gulf of Mexico would put most of the fires out up to about 50 miles inland.

Re: HUGE Louisiana sinkhole!!!!
the late Mathew Simmons was talking about all this before he died of a heart attack while drowning in his hot tub...guess they really wanted him gone.

so where did all the methane gas from the methane-hydrate go?

my understanding was once the gas started to dissociate during the oil rupture the heat would set off a chain reaction. more dissociation would create more heat and even more dissociation.

so do we have massive amounts of methane gas flowing around under all of our lower states like Mr. Simmons was predicting?

Radiation too..


9:15 a.m. Morning Update
August 9, 2012

Based on recent revelations that NORM (naturally occurring radioactive material) was injected into the cavern, the parish has requested DEQ to immediately begin monitoring the atmosphere and sinkhole for NORM. The OEP has also requested that previously pulled samples be tested for NORM as well.

Additionally, if you observe any abnormal activity such as bubbling, sinking, holes, etc… you can report this to OEP on the form that is linked below or by visiting the command post in Bayou Corne and filling a form out. The OEP will be forwarding all abnormal activity to DNR & DEQ immediately.

[link to assumptionla.wordpress.com]

----------


DNR records show that on Aug. 31, 1995, the agency authorized Texas Brine to dispose of 20 cubic feet of naturally occurring radioactive material by pumping it into the cavern and another Texas Brine salt cavern in Lafourche Parish.

A Texas Brine letter dated Aug. 25, 1995, requesting the disposal says the radioactive “scale” had accumulated in soils around the two cavern wells.
