Environmental context
The facility is situated in the Great Plains region of Kansas, an area characterized by agricultural land and the Hugoton natural gas field. Oil extraction operations here can impact air quality through emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and methane, regulated under the EPA's Clean Air Act.
