A team from the University of Wyoming's American Heritage Center is assessing people's perspectives about a potential oil boom in southeast Wyoming The UW project involves videotaped interviews with residents in eastern Laramie, Goshen and Platte counties. Interviews focus on how the potential development of the Niobrara shale formation affects them. Those interviewed include city and county officials, landowners, residents, business owners and people who work in the oil business
The project will record opinions about economic, environmental and social issues. UW hopes to assess people's views before, during and after development of the Niobrara field. The information will become part of the heritage center's research collection.
Officials say the project will help others find out how a community prepares.
