However, many of the people testifying at the hearing said the new rules don’t go far enough.Among these was Seth Newton, who lives on a ranch in Glendive that is near the Oaks Disposal Facility, which has been permitted since 2013 as a solid waste disposal facility. At the time it was permitted, North Dakota wasn’t allowing radioactive oilfield wastes over 5 picocuries to be disposed of within its borders, so the Oaks facility has become a repository for much of North Dakota’s oilfield waste.A company official, who said all comments have to go through corporate first, said he was authorized to say only that the Oaks Disposal Company is happy the state is creating rules and that it shares the same concerns that many Northern Plains Resource Council members raised during the meeting.“We are the last ones who want to contaminate stormwater,” he said. “We are happy and already do most all of the proposed rules, and on many go above and beyond them.”Newton, in his testimony, said he wanted to know why the facility’s stormwater runoff isn’t tested for diesel organics. That would ensure that, if there is a discharge from the stormwater retention ponds, there isn’t anything concerning escaping into the river that his cattle depend on for drinking water.The state presently requires only that operators of solid waste disposal facilities test for iron and total dissolved solids if they are going to discharge stormwater, to indicate whether it contains solids. Mary Hendrickson, technical lead for the solid waste program for Montana DEQ, said that testing the water for other things would lie outside her department’s scope, and that decisions on changing that would belong to the water quality division.Discharging from the stormwater pond requires a permit.“The purpose of the stormwater pond is to detain stormwater and let the solids settle out because they are an issue in any stormwater run off,” Hendrickson said.A solid waste facility is required to keep all it...

But rarely did shows cross over into live-action flicks on the big screen. In 1987, action figure shiller He-Man and the Masters of the Universe reached for a star too far away and bombed. What remains is an amazing film to watch while drinking. This week, Trash Film Debauchery and friends will travel to Mackenzie’s Pub to revel in this total shitshow of yore. The craptacular masterpiece stars the expressionless Dolph Lundgren in the titular role. With his friends, Man-at-Arms and Teela, he travels from Eternia to Earth to stop the villainous Skeletor (Frank Langella, who took the part for his son). The story involves sonic keys that open doors to universes using synthesizer sounds and somewhere along the way a young Courteney Cox shows up. Don’t think about it too hard, just order up a beer. Co-hosts Indeed Brewing will be at the party to provide just that. 8:30 p.m. Wednesday. Free. Mackenzie’s Pub, 918 Hennepin A... (City Pages)
