\"\"<\/a>Yesterday the Ohio Senate passed Senate Bill 315<\/a>, major energy legislation that addresses a wide range of issues \u2013 including provisions relating to transparency in oil and gas operations.\u00a0 Unfortunately, the version that passed falls short of Governor Kasich\u2019s ambitious call for broad chemical disclosure.<\/p>\n

In the introduced version of the bill put forward by Governor Kasich and sponsored by Chairwoman Shannon Jones, companies would have been required to publicly disclose all chemicals used throughout the entire lifecycle of oil and gas wells \u2013 the so-called \u201cspud to plug\u201d approach to chemical reporting.<\/p>\n

This comprehensive approach to chemical reporting stands in contrast to other state policies that merely require disclosure of those chemicals used in the hydraulic fracturing process.\u00a0 It reflects an understanding that a wide range of dangerous chemicals are used in drilling, stimulating, operating and closing wells, and regulators and the public need to know what\u2019s being used in order to evaluate risks and put strong standards in place that protect communities and the environment.\u00a0 Governor Kasich deserves a lot of credit for advancing this idea in the original version of the bill.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, in the face of intense industry opposition the version of SB315 that passed yesterday eliminates much of the reporting that would have been required under the Governor\u2019s original proposal.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The version of the bill that passed yesterday still has requirements for reporting the chemicals used in stimulating a well (which includes hydraulic fracturing).\u00a0 It also has requirements for reporting chemicals used for drilling the surface interval of a well.\u00a0 And it\u2019s worth noting that the bill language for these provisions \u2013 while still needing improvements \u2013 is stronger than what was in the introduced version of the bill.<\/p>\n

But the requirements for disclosing chemicals used for drilling beyond the surface interval were dropped \u2013 as were most of the requirements for disclosing chemicals used to service and operate the well.\u00a0 So, it\u2019s now up to the Ohio House of Representatives to restore these important provisions.\u00a0 There\u2019s a lot of nasty stuff that goes down a well during drilling and production.\u00a0 In fact, it tends to be the case that companies use increasingly dangerous chemicals the deeper they go in the drilling process.\u00a0 So, limiting disclosure of drilling fluids to just what\u2019s used in the surface interval doesn\u2019t make sense.<\/p>\n

In addition to restoring the full \u201cspud to plug\u201d approach to the chemical reporting, the House also needs to add bill language ensuring that Ohio citizens can challenge any trade secret claims that companies may make to conceal the identity of chemicals.\u00a0 That\u2019s just a basic necessity for policing the system and giving the public a reasonable level of confidence that companies are playing on the up and up.<\/p>\n

Finally, the bill should be amended to begin the process of assessing and reporting the chemical composition of waste streams from oil and gas operations.\u00a0 Without an adequate picture of the chemical makeup of wastewater and other wastes that come from oil and gas operations, it is difficult to impossible to determine whether various methods of waste handling and disposal are protective of human health and the environment.<\/p>\n

EDF was pleased to offer our support for the \u201cspud to plug\u201d concept embodied in the introduced version of the bill, but SB315 needs to be strengthened to earn our support<\/a> going forward.<\/p>\n

Transparency is just one small part of all that must to be done to ensure oil and gas operations are safe for communities and the environment, but it\u2019s a critical piece of the puzzle that lays a foundation for developing protective rules and rebuilding the public trust.\u00a0 So EDF looks forward to working with our partners, leaders in the General Assembly and the Governor to make sure the final version of SB315 lives up to its full promise and sets Ohio on the right path for protecting communities and environment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
