Letter to the editor: Article got the facts right on water use in the Oil Patch
Amy Dalrymple’s recent article, “Water for oil: Industry used 5.4 billion gallons of water in 2012,” provided some much-needed context to an important issue in domestic energy production. As she correctly points out, hydraulic fracturing does consume a great deal of water.

Other Views: When a waiver isn’t a waiver
No Child Left Behind took Americans to school and taught us our schools, teachers and students are failing. The proof, we are told, can be found in the results of standardized tests. This is despite that North Dakotans take pride in their schools, believing they do a good job.

Letter to the editor: Voter ID law will bar some legal voters from voting
House Bill 1332 would require government-issued photo identification for voting. This bill is a classic example of one from the American Legislative Exchange Council, which is an out-of-state special interest group funded by big business that would take away individuals’ rights to advance their own agenda.

Letter to the editor: Lawmakers should work in session; not play on Twitter
It has always been my understanding that the responsibility of a legislator during a floor session is to engage in debate and to discuss the policy vote at hand, not to Tweet or Facebook play-by-play updates.

Wildlife and oil don’t mix
No matter how pretty a picture the oil industry and state officials try to paint, the impacts on wildlife and habitat in North Dakota’s Oil Patch will be significant, and not positive. Several studies are under way in oil country to gauge effects on sensitive game and non-game species, including the iconic mule deer. There is no doubt that as the number of oil rigs in the grasslands, Badlands and other places explodes from 7,000 to 35,000 in the next few years, wildlife populations will be severely affected. It’s happening already.

Many years ago I received a Runnin O’ the Green race entry form in the mail. As a participant in local road races, I thought the route and timing obstacles seemed peculiar. I happened to see a fellow running farmer friend so I asked him about it.
