Harbor Commission Hears Oil Drilling Plans Near Harbor District
The Harbor Commission on Monday heard proposals to drill 20 to 30 oil wells outside the stipulated tidelands line seaward of which drilling was halted. Wells would be located about 400 feet landward of the Point Fermin to Gaviota Ave line, in parcels under contract to Long Beach Oil Development Co. and Richfield Oil Corp. The discussion included plans to develop some 500 acres south and east of current activity with 75 wells plotted, and the use of water injection to improve recovery. No action was taken on development of the two untapped areas in the harbor district.
