First the North East. There are two permitted well on Sutton's Landscaping, two new permitted wells with horizontal drilling on two farms off Valley Rd (60770 and 60771). Nobody saw the drilling rigs - they were probably not visible from the road - or are permitted (already a month ago) but not yet drilled. Both locations are very close to the Cook Drain that flows into the South Branch of the River Raisin.
There is also a re-entry permit on Stratton's Landscaping (60775) - with a rig visible since a few weeks.
The rig that was off Carson and Williamsburg Drive drilled twice horizontally (60757 and 60784). On the same old farm (Frye), there are two more bottom holes, each with a permitted horizontal drill (60785 and 60786), which also nobody saw. Again the rig must have been hidden behind trees - or the permit is not yet fulfilled - probably the latter as the well permits are not published yet on DEQ Weekly Oil & Gas Permit List. Interesting is that permit 60786 ends under Lake Drive next to Lake Adrian, one of the city's major drinking water sources.
In the Southeast, there is a new re-entry permit on a producing oil well (60774), and two new permits (60756 and 60758) NE of Ogden Station.
There is also movement in the West (where the other half of Adrian's drinking water comes from). It is concentrated around M34 with many older wells, most of them dry and some producing since a long time. There is one new permit for a horizontal well at the end of Douglas Drive close to two ponds and the Porter Drain (60764).
