A meeting was had at the county commissioner's conference room today July 20. The meeting was held by Sean O'Brien 63rd district and John Paterson 99th district. The two representatives were seeking public comment to help them produce a new bill on disposal wells. I am woefully ignorant on disposal well regulations, so it was all Greek to me.

  I was surprised at the hostility directed at the Ohio Department of Natural Resources. I have only dealt with them once, when Range Resources refused to plug an abandoned well on my property. They issued a plug or produce order, and forced Range to plug the well. It was done in a timely, well for the government, manner, and I was happy.

  To Joseph- Ohio, The meeting was recorded, but no mention was made on how to obtain a copy. You may be able to contact one of the representatives above to obtain a copy.
