GOOD VOICE 34-27H PAD - Oil Extraction Facility in Mandaree, North Dakota

GOOD VOICE 34-27H PAD is an oil extraction facility located in Mandaree, Dunn County, North Dakota, United States. The facility is operational and plays a role in the region's oil production, which is part of the larger Bakken shale formation. North Dakota is a major oil-producing state, and facilities like this one are integral to the state's energy infrastructure. The facility operates under the regulatory framework of the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the North Dakota Industrial Commission. Oil extraction activities are subject to the Clean Air Act (CAA) and the Clean Water Act (CWA), with specific requirements for emissions control and water management. The facility's NAICS codes (211111 and 211120) indicate crude petroleum and natural gas extraction, as well as oil and gas extraction support activities. Environmental considerations for oil extraction in North Dakota include water usage, potential for spills, and air emissions. The region's semi-arid climate and proximity to the Missouri River and Lake Sakakawea necessitate careful management of water resources and spill prevention. The facility's operational status suggests ongoing compliance with regulatory standards to minimize environmental impact.

The facility is located in the Bakken shale region, which has seen significant oil development. Local environmental concerns include groundwater protection, air quality from flaring and emissions, and management of produced water. The area's cold winters and sensitive ecosystems require robust spill prevention and response plans. Regulatory oversight by the EPA and state agencies aims to mitigate these risks.
