Interior Department officials say "you can't manage what you don't measure." That's why a National Water Census makes sense to help us treat water like the precious resource it is.
We have a story in April's The Driller written by Steve Kaser that describes a wild helicopter ride taken by a rig and other equipment to a well site at a remote Oregon lodge. Well, I just heard from the maker of that rig, who helped fill in some details.
The Institutes for Journalism & Natural Resources recently chose me for a field trip to explore water quality issues in the wake of a tar-sand oil spill, and I plan to share coverage with The Driller readers.
I recently found out that bentonite from a certain well-known company helped NASA perfect the rover's drill for the latest scientific trip to the Red Planet.
I'm going to speak with Peter Annin, author of The Great Lakes Water Wars, hopefully this afternoon. But don't forget to check out other interviews from the recent MGWA convention.
I just got back from the Michigan Groundwater Association convention (thanks, MGWA, for having me), and want to share some of the upcoming stories you can expect to see. Good things are coming.
Does your company have a retired rig sitting in a garage somewhere? Does your family have pictures of rigs your dad-or even grandfather-used decades ago? Send me the pictures.
