US judge denies initial injunction in BLM venting, flaring suit

A federal district court judge in Wyoming denied a preliminary injunction against the US Bureau of Land Management’s venting and flaring rule. Petitioners-which included the Independent Petroleum Association of America, the Western Petroleum Association, and the states of Wyoming, North Dakota, and Montana-did not demonstrate that a preliminary injunction is warranted, US District Judge Scott W. Skavdahl said in his Jan. 16 decision.
