Corrupt judge continues to abuse Bayou Corne residents –
Louisiana Record (May 8) – Judge Zainey disregards Bayou Corne class complaints, grants class counsel $12 million in legal fees; Residents consider asking Bar for reprimand
“NEW ORLEANS – A federal judge overseeing the Bayou Corne sinkhole case has approved $12 million in legal fees, just weeks after the plaintiffs said their lawyers “mistreated and manipulated” them into accepting a subpar settlement. . . “
The Finger Lakes region in west New York has a collapsing cavern problem too –

” . . . Cark claims there are structural issues. In the 1960s, a 400,000-ton hunk of rock fell from one of the ceilings, and now rests on the floor of the cavern, leaving behind a potentially unstable irregular hole the size of a football field. And while salt caverns are nearly impervious to gas, when you have irregularities, they can cause leaks, or, worse, collapse.”

” . . . Along with 210 million gallons of crude oil that leaked from BP’s failed deep-sea well, cleanup workers applied 1.84 million gallons of chemical dispersant intended to break down the oil and prevent it from reaching the shoreline in massive quantities.
Since the spill, numerous studies have suggested that the mix of oil and chemical dispersants was more toxic to at least parts of the marine ecosystem than the oil alone. . . “
. . . that would be corexit . . .
Harold Hamm, the CEO of oil company Continental Resources, tried to get scientists at the University of Oklahoma fired after the presented research that increased seismic activity in the Midwest is linked to wastewater disposal from fracking . . .

There had been odd pieces here about the upstate NY gas dispute (I missed the under-the-lake-cavern) and the Ohio salt cavern crumbling.
Now, in NY the frack fight is heating up and so is the fight to keep out oil trains. Oil train cargo is much more flammable than usual type of petro products and a concern to small towns with small fire dept.s

That had to be near Oxy 1 cavern.
I think they tried to fill Oxy 1 cavern so it would not cave in.
something is going on!
Very heavy tremors and activity with some lulls. It isn’t news anymore so I didn’t create a new post since the weekend. It will be ‘news’ if things calm down!
