This $1,000,000 federal Project Grant award from the U.S. Department of the Interior's Energy Community Revitalization Program (CFDA 15.018) provides funding to the Comanche Nation to plug, remediate, and reclaim orphaned oil and gas wells on tribal lands. The key activities include plugging orphaned wells, remediating soil and habitat degradation, and decommissioning associated infrastructure. Expected deliverables include reducing methane emissions, enhancing public health and safety protections, and restoring impacted land and water resources. The project will also help the Comanche Nation identify and characterize undocumented orphaned wells on tribal lands and develop a tribal program to address these legacy environmental issues. This award is part of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law's $4.7 billion initiative to address orphaned wells across the United States, with a focus on supporting state and tribal governments in these efforts.
