SUBJECT: Opposition to Senate Bill 2120 (Rogers) authorizing slant drilling for
oil and aas under Little Franks Tract in the Franks Tract State Recreation
Area
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S ) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION: CONVEY immediately to the County's legislative delegation
in Sacramento the Board's adamant opposition to SB 2120.
BACKGROUND:
Legislation allowing oil drilling in the Delta at Frank's Tract and in the
State Park is being reconsidered by the Senate this week. The plater
Committee's members have reviewed this bill and recommend that the Board of
Supervisors strongly oppose it. We believe it is improper to do such
drilling in a State Park. The drilling could pose serious threats to
polluting the sensitive wildlife habitat in the area.
