On the case and requested the court date be moved to october 9. In court just a few moments ago, we saw estrada. He looked differently than previously, the hair was longer and it did not appear he was looking at his family but many members of his family were in court today. The court was also packed with dozens of Hayward Police officers as his family, including his brother, appeared. Neither family wanted it speak today but estradas attorney shared that he just took on the case and he described to me the challenge of representing someone in what now is such a my profile high profile case. Over a half dozen murder cases are in the building but because of the nature of this, this will receive more scrutiny by the public and the media and probably by the courts and law enforcement. Many members of both families in court today including many Hayward Police officers, Sergeant Lunger was shot and killed during what was a routine traffic stop last month. As we walked out of the court off cam
Into the 60s today. That may stop unlike weve been seeing, were not going to talk 70s, 80s, 90s. None of that. 60s for most of us throughout the afternoon. On radar and satellite we had a cold front pass through the night, that delivered isolated showers, but for the most part well be dry. In the afternoon just another chance of isolated showers, otherwise rk man, it is all about finally feeling at fall. Few days ago we were looking at the fall meter and it was stuck on is it still summer and check this out were bringing out the flannel in the next few days and theres a nice cool breeze out there as well. In a few minutes were going to talk more about temperatures you can expect for your saturday and sunday. Take a closer look at future model so you can see where the spot showers may fall a little later today. Thats all coming up. Krystal, thanks for that. Happening now, Westchester Pike in marple township, Delaware County, has reopened. A fiery crash took place not long ago. Police sa
When Congress Last debated opening anwr to oil and Gas Development, people made arguments about the use of new technology and how it would minimize the impact on anwr. Since then a lot of the claims have borne out in the industry. We will share some of them today. A couple are directional. Extended reach Multi Lateral drilling techniques that allow wells to be drilled in all directions from a well pad kind of like spokes on a bicycle wheel. Directional drilling has been around since the 1970s. But at that time it was did not allow the reach that we can now. And so you could drill a few square miles around a pad. I have a figure thats been shown before in the hearing today. You can see a couple, three square miles using technology from the 1970s and fast forward to the run on the far right, 12acre pad where a rig can reach out and cover 125 square miles. That means that you can space pads in modern development up to ten miles apart and that there is little to no surface impact between t
Good morning everyone. Committee will come to order. We meet this morning to consider opening a very small portion of alaskas 1002 area to responsible Energy Development to meet the 1 billion budget reconciliation instruction that our Committee Received last week. The 1002 area covers 1. 57 million acres of land in northeast alaska within the nonwilderness portion. You bring it over here, sean. Within the nonwilderness portion of an war. And i think its important to put this in context in terms of the areas we are talking about. Anwar itself is 19 million acres. Approximately the size of south carolina. The nonwilderness area, is approximately the size of delaware. The area here is designated as federal wilderness. So when were talking about anwr itself, i think its importedant to recognize there are parts that are designated as wilderness, parts within the refuge and parts, the 1002 area specifically been designated for consideration for oil and Gas Exploration. So again i want to be
