State seeks legal curb on drilling in Canaan Valley Park
In Charleston, W.Va., Deputy Attorney General Frank Ellison says the state will not permit drilling in Canaan Valley State Park if a legal method exists. A Supreme Court suit by Traverse Corp seeks either a drilling permit or condemnation to compensate for denied development of over half the park’s 6,000 acres with Texas Eastern Transmission Corp. leases. The case hinges on 1960s acquisitions and the unitized well near the park. no drilling has occurred inside the park to date.
