The Energy Resources Conservation Board announced last week the dates for the continuation of the public hearing on the Petro-Canada Sullivan Creek sour gas project. Petroleum engineering experts are scheduled to testify January 20 - 23 on the proposal for 11 new sour gas wells and construction of a gathering system, field facilities and pipeline in the Sullivan Creek area. Those opposed to the project argue that it threatens a valuable watershed, disturbs native fescue grasslands and takes an unnecessarily intrusive route, among other concerns. Hearings began Nov. 12 and had been scheduled to end Dec. 5.
