Tug of war cannot grasp water Monday, February 13, 2006 2:06 AM MST Editor: The Feb. 2 Casper Star-Tribune editorial "Industry holds key to CBM water dispute" suggests that injection is the silver bullet solution to coal-bed natural gas (CBNG) water management. The editorial staff apparently reached this conclusion because Anadarko has chosen to try injection as a management tool and because special interest groups in Montana have proposed mandatory injection in that state. The editorial ignored the fact that dozens, if not hundreds, of ranchers in the Powder River Basin have relied on CBNG produced water to sustain and enhance their agricultural operations, particularly in the last few years of extreme drought conditions. The staff ignored the fact that the Wyoming DEQ has complied with Wyoming and federal statutes in reviewing and issuing numerous discharge permits on a site-specific basis after extensive public involvement. The staff ignored the fact that quality of waters flowing from Wyoming into Montana is no different now than it was before CBNG development began. Northern Plains Resource Council would like nothing better than to make this into a Montana vs. Wyoming issue. They ignored the facts included in the recent comments offered by the Wyoming delegation that pointed out that proposed Montana rules have no technical or scientific basis; that the proposed rules are not about protecting water quality but about reducing CBNG exploration and production; that CBNG production is important not only to Montana and Wyoming, but to the entire nation; and that interstate cooperation is preferable to interstate confrontation. The issue is not simple and a "silver bullet" is not the solution to all possible problems. Solutions need to be based on sound science applied on a site-specific basis.
