OSTI ID:5560001
A November 3, 1981 hearing reviewed President Reagan's proposal to continue the 180,000 barrels per day of oil and 320 million cubic foot per day of gas production at the Elk Hills, California Naval Petroleum Reserve No. 1. Without approval by both Houses, production will automatically be reduced to the minimum level. At issue are national security, the value of $2 billion in receipts from Elk Hills oil sales, and the local impacts of a decision to continue or reduce production. The statements of 11 witnesses from the public and private sectors are followed by additional materials submitted for the record. (DCK)
