South Dakota is suing a Texas company for $15.5 million for abandoning 40 natural gas wells in Harding County.
The South Dakota Department of Environment and Natural Resources is requesting that the court require Spyglass Cedar Creek and its general partners Kevin Sellers and March Kimmel to bring the wells in northwestern South Dakota into compliance, as well as pay the state $15.5 million in penalties for abandoning the wells, according to the complaint filed in Hughes County on Monday.
