Abstract

Why should we care about directional drilling? A lot of people care, both at the federal and state levels. Many politicans have weighed in on this issue of whether or not directional drilling should be permitted. Beyond state politics, an interesting legal debate has begun over whether the federal or state government has primary regulatory authority over this amphibious sort of drilling, which starts on the land but ends up under the Great Lakes.

Comments

This is a part of the Forum on Directional Drilling under the Great Lakes.
