URBAN OIL AND GAS GROUP LLC / GROSS 16 CDP - Oil Extraction Facility in Arnett, Oklahoma

URBAN OIL AND GAS GROUP LLC / GROSS 16 CDP is an oil extraction facility situated approximately 0.4 miles northwest of the E0680/US283 junction near Arnett, Oklahoma. The facility is operational and classified under NAICS codes 211111 (Crude Petroleum and Natural Gas Extraction) and 211120 (Natural Gas Liquid Extraction), reflecting its role in upstream hydrocarbon production. The facility operates within the regulatory framework of the United States, which includes oversight by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and state-level agencies such as the Oklahoma Corporation Commission. Oil extraction in Oklahoma is subject to regulations covering well construction, wastewater management, and air emissions, including the EPA's New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for oil and gas operations. As a small-scale extraction site in the Anadarko Basin region, this facility contributes to local oil and gas production. The surrounding area is characterized by agricultural land and low population density, reducing direct community exposure. The facility's environmental significance is tied to typical extraction risks such as groundwater protection and methane emissions, which are managed through regulatory compliance.

The facility is located in a semi-arid region of western Oklahoma, where water resources are critical for both agriculture and energy production. Oil extraction activities can impact local groundwater quality through potential spills or improper wastewater disposal. The area's low population density and rural setting reduce immediate human exposure, but ecological receptors such as grasslands and wildlife may be affected by surface disturbances and emissions. Regulatory requirements under the Clean Air Act and Safe Drinking Water Act aim to mitigate these risks.
