Well Spacing Bill Doomed
TOPEKA AP A bill giving the Kansas Corporation Commission power to require oil well spacing or unitization will die in committee. Rep. Dick Vantandingham chairman of the House Oil and Gas Committee said it was introduced by Reps. Rosas Doyen and T. Richard Liebert. It was supported by major oil companies and independents seeking stability and more drilling.
