Like being allowed to unload your well to surface, just wow. The setbacks and spacing rules or lack of make me shake my head. Also, a lot of their target formations are quite close to surface, which changes the game bigtime.

Yup. Its truly disgusting what they're allowed to get away with. I know some of the properties that we were looking at in Montana and Utah would allow you to dump your straight produced water into a creek. No processing other than 2 cascading tanks. Horrifying actually.
