Sanchez Oil and Gas Corporation's WM Rice #1 Well

Sanchez Oil and Gas Corporation proposed to drill and produce the WM Rice #1 well from a surface location within the Turkey Creek Unit of Big Thicket National Preserve in Tyler County, Texas. The National Park Service released a public scoping notice for this proposal on October 21, 2004, announcing a 30-day public scoping period to solicit public comments on the proposal prior to completing an environmental analysis of the proposal. Sanchez's lease expired on May 21, 2006, and no further progress was made on this proposal.
