Nonprofits clean up 'dirty little secret' of oil and gas industry: abandoned wells
President Joe Biden’s Bipartisan Infrastructure Package provides up to $4.7 billion to plug some abandoned oil wells, including $560 million awarded this year to 24 states to address some of the worst polluting wells. Some estimates say the cost to close all of the abandoned wells could be several times more than the amount provided in the infrastructure law.
