water we use in our homes so if that would happen it would be a very bad thing. as a lot of fracturing job that's where they pump the sand the fluid and the other chemicals because they use s. it is one they use a chemical called bio bio it kills all biological elements so so when they pumped out that often to ground any kind of bacteria is going to kill any kind of living organism of any kind it kills it because one of our guy has. got some of it on his hands and light and i just sort of just swallow his hand and we're bad because that's what my old bio bio kills biological. anything. i'm pretty sure is it's is wrong in the water. for this or it is as is the nobody drinks the water out of iron stepfather from north dakota i think everybody drank
6:31 am
so bottled water you know it just is just like if you ever. drop water on the out of the faucet night isn't this it it's pretty nasty when we're fracking no oil or grease is allowed to be spilled on the ground if you make an a mistake and you drop one cop you have to clean it up and take it away with you it's not polluting north dakota the air is clean the water is clean. this is privately owned land this is not government land any less the environmental protection agency finds scientific proof that there is real pollution going on they won't be able to shut this down. and so far there is no proof. there's just. propaganda. is a cost of. respects safety measures tracking. down how to paint is advocating this

notion in an attempt to avoid all risk of polluting groundwater it seems to success is very unlikely. the question is me raised to address the intention of anti-fashion groups. one thing is certain the practice of trial tracking to be as large quantities of drinking water. ten young is the owner of the clip services company the facilitates the shipping of water for fracking through pipelines and provides water storage and its huge tanks as well. the think that used to hold water for the fracking. thirty five thousand barrels and so they'll pump water from one to the other until eventually it's over to the frac and down the hole. it's fresh water all that water thrown in here is coming out of the city water line so it's all clean water. so
6:33 am
that's been millions of dollars on water for one is one of the biggest expenses one of these wells the fresh. water after the frac they just log back out of the ground and they haul it off to a disposal facility. right here this is called a flare natural gas comes up with the oil and so they have to get rid of it so they just burn it off right here loyal comes out of the pump jacks goes underground to the treaters in there it separates the oil the water in the gas this site here produces more water than what they can pipeline out here so i have to come in with a truck intricate out to get to disposal facilities. keith their lives sixty miles out of. listed on fort berthold reservation for black

gold flows freely and accounts for one quarter of north dakota's production. this oil field isn't all that good for everybody we have sacred land here we have virgin land here and now there's oil roll of oil fields. at night some of these trucks to drive along gravel roads and they don't poison. rocking water all while the all the things into the ditch. because they're too lazy to drive to the dump. and that going into our river going into our critics with going into our spot on. the fields not in the water but it is you know they're not telling the truth i have twenty nine grandchildren i want them to enjoy this river where i didn't want them to walk in the water i want them to catch a fish to eat and i want to grow garden and to do won't have to worry about poisoning the planet i want to have plants with their medicine that's not deformed
6:35 am
now because of the things that are in the water. oil workers are best suited to judge the eventual pollution is caused by fracking. unfortunately this problem is not a priority they are in survival mode first and foremost they are in need of or. during the journey phase radioactive to prepare us back to the surface is a major risk for workers and the environment some companies clearly are not concerned do not hesitate dispose of these toxic materials into wild dumps. especially teams are left to ship them back to suitable treatment states. in north dakota no one with an oil rich piece of land will tell you that fracking could be an environmental hazard. doing so could jeopardize. one of the best ways
6:36 am
to get rich quick. of course all beautiful stories have been read a christmas two thousand and fourteen all science turned red thanks to saudi arabia the staggering fall of the price per barrel of oil put it into the moment if you phoria saw the us rise of the first producers of crude oil face to shale. we can feel the concern brought by the price cut everywhere and will is to now shows the science of a boom town going to. people in this town are very very suspicious of oil booms because that almost always comes with a large bust and the bust to be rather difficult and now that i'm a part of this town i'm a little bit worried because we're seeing gas prices start to drop down and i'm wondering what's going to happen to my business because we have a message here. january two thousand and fifteen the price per barrel fell below
6:37 am
the crucial fifty dollars mark. in this little town here west and is a major major reason why the price of oil around the world is coming down because the opec countries saudi arabia leading them they're out there they're very scared by the. developments in hydraulic fracturing they know that the united states in the past five years went from importing something like sixty percent of the oil that we use down to thirty percent and that is a direct result of the hydraulic fracturing that's taken place like here and williston in the box and in other areas they want to put these companies out of business. even if circumstances are worrisome these days i fear that he has not stopped after ten thousand wells we still need to extract the millions of barrels lying beneath the bokken. this situation brings happiness to the ones for him for
6:38 am
serious companies but it is devastating to the oil workers who are no longer needed they are thrown out into the streets without pity they must decide whether to go back home or stay listed looking for new jobs. and very rarely twenty fifteen want one of my coworkers i work where he called me and he said managers laid everybody off. he's in and told everybody to go to a room get only stuff in get out and this will two o'clock in the morning at night in february in the winter. men can seem to eat out in clothes tramway day to the next. these dilapidated barracks will probably continue to landscape for eight years to come. construction sites for abandoned by the dozen and left to

6:41 am
real the hard work we do is the true. the british government and the push to stop and mrs and mrs mrs may have looks themselves up into his studio about so-called new deal just so she's incredibly misleading as i just said in so doing they've allowed the european union to impose a completely draco union of the u.k. which would last anyway. like going to a place called camp sundown to get for people that can't decide and they're like so vampires. this is like a safe house i guess they don't have to talk about what they go through with us because we understand her daughter katie was diagnosed with

6:47 am
a barrel we weren't doing anything march was a bad month but now it's suddenly picked up to forty dollars a barrel and we're busy again the companies have done so much cost cutting and efficiency that if the price goes to fifty it will be like it used to be eighty. the rig counts the number of rigs drilling new holes in the ground has gone way down from over two hundred to i think thirty five rigs active in the block and. as time goes on without new wells being drilled and fret our one point one million barrels a day will go down naturally slowly in some point in the two to five years there will be a supply and demand reversal whereas now we're oversupplied will be under supplied and the price will shoot up. between now and then it will go like this and at some
6:48 am
point it will go up. and if the price go ever goes to one hundred and it will someday. north dakota will be crawling with workers looking for housing and there will be a huge labor shortage the companies will be throwing money at us. now we're mostly working for folks who have oil rigs oil pumps on their land and they have those monthly checks coming in from the old companies and they're spending money on their homes. or lot of people have disappeared out here who gone back home i guess i know some are gone back to bozeman big sky area because constructions doing ok there some went back to minneapolis some to idaho but yeah a lot of people have left here i don't know too many people here anymore they're all gone just slow down too much they lost their jobs got laid off so couldn't put in the hours a lot of families to a lot of guys in the oil business the higher ups the guys making more money they've
6:49 am

6:50 am
a born garage and there was a snow storm and heavy snow storm about three years ago i suppose and the snow load on the roof caused the roof to collapse so. anyway it's kind of an open air garage and i. have a hose hooked up in there and i was i'm good. thanks . to the oil industry has changed dramatically and i don't like to see that i see companies going out of business and people being fired and laid off and loading up a u.-haul trailers and heading out of town and it's sad. it hasn't really affected me because. we service the infrastructure that has been built and once that infrastructure is built it still needs to be maintained i'm very
6:51 am
thankful for that. so tonight we'll. do. one of the last minute rush. but it's nice to have the company and you. as i said before if you're really outside of. the former girlfriend came up with his claims oh you're like the only visitors that i've had here. in the over forty years that i've been in williston. i used to be far far far too

6:54 am
thought the oil boom would be here for at least another fifteen years and that we would be able to. be able to make enough money to pay for our kids to go to college . the american dream is changing that's not what it used to be. and. it's a tough reality and your home. and. this.
6:55 am
is still a boom will come back but if it does it'll be much much more shallow a growth curve. and won't be nearly as. much money and. i'm not. going to try the optimist. i think it's going to come back.
