BLM Fails to Inspect Higher Risk Oil Wells Nationwide
Government Accountability Office findings show the Bureau of Land Management did not inspect thousands of high priority wells on federal and Indian lands due to outdated rules and limited resources. Investigators cite weak state coordination, incomplete data, and mass fracking activity amid an energy boom. The audit covers 14 states and notes more than 2,100 of 3,702 high priority wells from 2009 to 2012 were left uninspected.
