Wichita County

And again, we've drilled close to 200 wells, over 200 wells in this area in the last 10 years.

I currently operate over 356 wells and growing, but it's conventional wells in Wichita County, direct operating control through our Newport operating.

Again, with a proven geology in this area, we have lower drilling costs.

How are we able to do that? Well, because I own the drilling rigs.

But ultimately I do make the decisions on where we're going, where we're drilling and what we're doing.

But again, I rely heavily on my brain trust, Mr. Barry Hanks, Michael Villalba and several other individuals that are out there in the field that help us do what we're doing.

Again, drilling history, we've now drilled over 150 wells in Wichita County.

That number is a little outdated.

But Lipscomb and Hip Hill County, are not under a burn ban.

The rest of the counties in the eastern part of the Texas Panhandle is, and along the Red River, Wichita, and sorry, I'm not very

good

at reading some of these counties, but quite a few counties.

That is down about 15 percentage points from last week.

Exceptional drought remains in Willbarger, Wichita, Ford, and Hardeman counties along the Red River, as well as in Dickens, Motley, and Floyd counties.

For the Texas Farm Bureau Radio Network, I'm Jessica Dolmul.

The Texas Animal Health Commission is releasing more screw worm infested zones.

Take us to, it's state court case, I take it?

Yes, in Wichita County.

So some of the challenges were, for example, in opening, the judge didn't allow for us to have any kind of visuals, and we couldn't use any evidence, you know, whether we agreed to it or not.

And so the opening had to tell a story without being able to show anything.

Scores rank counties against each other.

Among the twenty-four counties with complete data across every layer, the fifteen highest-scoring are, one, Wichita County, forty-five point six.

Two, Jefferson County, forty-three point eight.

Three, Potter County, forty-three point five.

Okay, so Iowa Park is definitely not a lake area.

It's in Wichita County and there's some lakes there.

So the lake that I went to the most as a child was Lake Arrowhead.

And it's a nice enough lake, but it's not comparable to Possum Kingdom Lake as far as size and terrain and variation.
