Compromise Reached Between Le Norman &
Valle De Oro Residents
PGCD held a regularly scheduled Board Meeting on June
8, 2017. Among the items discussed, was a complaint filed against
Le Norman Operating regarding three oil and gas rig supply wells
in Valle De Oro, located in Potter County. Le Norman drilled the U
three wells in April of this year, without proper permitting from - i
the District. Two of the wells met the District's spacing
requirement making the third well an illegal well.
Residents were concerned the rig supply wells will take
away water from their individual wells. PGCD assisted in
facilitating conversation between the residents and Le Norman.
Board of Directors decided to allow Le Norman to continue
pumping the two legal wells at the appropriate gallons per minute, Attendees at the June 8th Board Meeting
while they look for an alternative water source to supply water for
drilling.

ensure they are pumping within regulations, and they have also
measured other wells in the area. They have found no evidence of
depletion from the pumping of Le Norman's wells.

within their rights according to Texas Water Code and are
authorized to produce groundwater with in the District's rules for
