Red Oak Operating/Jarvis #1 Gas Extraction Facility, Village, Arkansas

Red Oak Operating/Jarvis #1 is a gas extraction facility situated in Columbia County, Arkansas, approximately 1 mile south of Village on Highway 98. The facility is operational and classified under NAICS code 211111, which covers crude petroleum and natural gas extraction. As part of the United States gas infrastructure, it contributes to the regional energy supply. The facility operates within the regulatory framework of the US Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) and DOT 49 CFR Part 192, which governs gas pipeline safety. While specific technical specifications such as capacity or operating pressure are not detailed, typical gas extraction facilities in Arkansas involve moderate-scale operations, often associated with the Fayetteville Shale or similar formations. Environmentally, the facility's location in rural Arkansas reduces proximity to dense populations, but standard gas extraction practices involve managing emissions and water usage. The facility plays a role in the local gas supply chain, supporting downstream distribution and industrial use in the region.

The facility is situated in a rural area of Columbia County, Arkansas, which reduces direct exposure to densely populated zones. However, gas extraction activities can involve risks such as groundwater contamination and air emissions. The region's moderate seismic activity and climate conditions (e.g., tornadoes) may pose operational hazards, but standard industry practices and PHMSA regulations mitigate these risks.
