The Upper Green River catchment in Wyoming Province has the strongest emissions regulation for domestic oil and gas industry. The US Environmental Protection Agency issued similar Federal emissions regulations in May last year and cites the Upper Green experience in reducing ozone emissions as a good example. This week the Federal Court urged the EPA to begin implementing these rules nationwide. Erika Tokarz is a regulator of Ultra, one of the leading energy companies in the southwestern part of Wyoming. She walked along the Riverside in the Pinedale-Anticline oilfield and pointed out one way to suppress ozone - a row of large, bright blue aquaria filled with chemicals to remove nitrogen oxides. It is called SCR system or selective catalytic reduction system.
