Overall conclusion from Alberta Research Council review of Lauridsen Water well Complaint :
description
Transcript of Overall conclusion from Alberta Research Council review of Lauridsen Water well Complaint :
• Current regulation prohibiting the co-mingling of groundwater may conflict with CBM/NGC development objectives
• The need to protect current water users who obtain the water from coal zones that may be targeted for CBM/NGC development
• The anticipated need, in some cases, for de-watering coal zones for CBM/NGC development, verses protection (sustainability) of the aquifers
energy development projects in the area most
likely have not adversely affected Ms. Lauridsen’s water well.
Overall conclusion from Alberta Research Council review of Lauridsen Water
well Complaint: Dec 20, 2007The Alberta research Council’s overall
conclusion of the evidence from the review of the AENV and AEUB files, along with a new review and evaluation of additional data and aspects, is that energy development projects in the area most likely have not adversely affected Ms. Lauridsen’s water well.

Well selection – ARC Review Lauridsen Water Well Complaint Dec 20, 2007
Some of the wells tested have questionable quality data.
Data from CBM wells from Township 45, Ranges 20 and 21, was used to compare the Lauridsen well carbon isotopes to typical deeper CBM well carbon isotopes.
