In other news from Sacramento with local interest … California’s state government has been approving fracking permits at a furious pace.
Fracking is the practice of blowing up underground rock to free up the oil and gas locked in it.
And yesterday … Gov. Gavin Newsom fired the state’s top oil and gas regulator.
Ken Harris was sacked from his job at the Division of Oil, Gas and Geothermal Resources.
The firing comes as news breaks that employees at the state agency that regulates oil drilling in California own stock in companies that they regulate.
New data shows that the state regulators have been issuing permits for hydraulic fracturing in California at twice the rate this year … over last.
One deputy director at the state regulatory agency has disclosed owning stock in ExxonMobil worth as much as $100,000.
The story is reported by the Associated Press out of Sacramento … we have a link to it posted at the KBUU website:
