Large earthquakes a threat to Oklahoma, research shows

Stillwater could be near the epicenter of potentially large earthquakes.

Chris Hartnady, a South African geologist, said in a study released in March that part of Oklahoma is in danger of a larger earthquake.

The area of risk is positioned near Guthrie, Langston and Stillwater, according to the study.

The distribution of recent epicenters reveals possible hidden faults, which may be oriented for re-activation, and earthquakes greater than magnitude 5 could shake the region on a weekly basis by the end of 2015, according to the study.

“If a major part or the whole of the GLS (Guthrie, Langston and Stillwater) structure is ac-

cidentally re-activated in a lowstress-drop regime by wastewater injection, it is capable of generating a significant earthquake in the range (magnitude) 5.5-6.5 or greater,” Hartnady said in the study.

Central Oklahoma has seen a rapid increase of earthquakes greater than magnitude 3 since 2012.

There were 40 earthquakes magnitude 3 or greater in 2012, 111 in 2013, 611 in 2014 and about 600 so far in 2015, according to the United States Geological Survey.

“As long as we have seismicity, you can certainly expect us to keep going,” said Matt Skinner, Oklahoma Corporation Commission spokesperson.

The current rate of Oklahoma earthquakes is about 600 times greater than Oklahoma’s historical averages, according to the Office of the Secretary of Energy and Environment.

The Oklahoma Corporation Commission on Aug. 3 instructed operators of 23 wastewater disposal wells to reduce the volumes they’re injecting by 38 percent, according to an Oklahoma Corporation Commission document.

Skinner said the total amount of produced water injection in the

region would drop by 2.5 million barrels, or 110 million gallons.

He said Oklahoma has become the centerpiece for induced seismicity research.

“In natural seismicity, statistical models show that the more earthquakes you have, the greater the likelihood of you having a large earthquake,” Skinner said.

that’s at risk for further increases in seismicity, according to an Oklahoma Corporation Commission document.

Logan County is between Payne and Oklahoma counties, and the area of risk begins about 10 miles south of Stillwater story continues on page 3

“No one is quite sure if induced seismicity follows that same pattern, but certainly we act out of that concern.

Produced water is a byproduct of hydraulic fracturing. Water naturally coexists with underground oil and gas reserves, and that water is extracted along with the fuel.

Companies normally separate the water after extraction and dispose of it by injecting it back into the earth through the use of injection wells, according to the Office of the Secretary of Energy and Environment.

“We know a lot more than we did a year ago when it comes to induced seismicity and about what’s underground in Oklahoma in terms of the faults,” Skinner said. “Based on the data and based on the evidence, we feel that a volume cutback is justified.”

A magnitude 5 earthquake

can cause considerable damage, and a magnitude 6 earthquake 700 can cause severe damage, according to the Associated Press600 Stylebook.

Mark Zoback, Stanford geophysicist, published a study 500 June 18 that linked Oklahoma’s increased seismicity to in400 creases in the rates of saltwater injection.

“Although most of the recent300 earthquakes have posed little danger to the public, the pos- 200 sibility of triggering damaging earthquakes on potentially 100 active basement faults cannot be discounted,” Zoback said.

0 Chad Penn, researcher and OSU associate professor of soil and environmental chemistry, said deep well injection is the easiest, cheapest way to dispose of produced water.

“The problem is, they’ve been injecting it excessively deep, with excessive volumes, in the

“And because of that, that’s why we have earthquakes right now.”

He said it’s a complicated issue that researchers and officials

“With the earthquakes, it’s ultimately a waste management issue,” Penn said.

What to do if there’s an earthquake:

If you’re inside, stay inside DO NOT run outside or to other rooms during shaking. Drop down onto your hands and knees before the earthquake knocks you down. This position protects you from falling but allows you to still move if necessary.

Cover your head and neck

(and your entire body if possible) under the shelter of a sturdy table or desk. If there is no shelter nearby, get down near an interior wall or next to low-lying furniture that won’t fall on you, and cover your head and neck with your arms and hands.

Hold on to your shelter

(or to your head and neck) until the shaking stops. Be prepared to move with your shelter if the shaking shifts it around.

If you are outside, stay outside Stay away from buildings utility wires, sinkholes, and fuel and gas lines. The area near the exterior walls of a building is the most dangerous place to be.

The area near the exterior walls of a building is the most dangerous place to be. Also, shaking can be so strong that you will not be able to move far without falling down, and objects may fall or be thrown at you.

Move away from buildings The greatest danger from falling debris is just outside doorways and close to outer walls.

Once in the open, get down low to avoid being knocked down by strong shaking and stay there until the shaking stops.

If you are in a car, stop as quickly and safely as possible Move your car to the shoulder or curb, away from utility poles, overhead wires, and under- or overpasses. Stay in the car and set the parking brake. Turn on the radio for emergency broadcast information. A car may jiggle violently on its springs, but it is a good place to stay until the shaking stops. If a power line falls on the car, stay inside until a trained person removes the wire.

When you drive on, watch for hazards created by the earthquake, such as breaks in the pavement, downed utility poles and wires, rising water levels, fallen overpasses, and collapsed bridges.

OSU STUDENT ARRESTED FOR REPORTEDLY SELLING ACID An Oklahoma State student was booked in Payne County Jail on Tuesday after Payne County Special District Judge Katherine Thomas issued a warrant for his arrest Monday.

Tariq James Bell, 18, was charged by the Payne County District Attorney’s Office on Friday with unlawful delivery of a controlled dangerous substance, a felony, after Bell reportedly provided acid to an OSUPD confidential informant in Wentz Hall in April, according to the affidavit.

Bell reportedly gave the informant “a small bottle wrapped in

electrical tape,” and told the informant not to allow the substance inside to “be exposed to excessive heat,” the affidavit states.

Bell said there were five doses in the bottle to “separate each dose similar to a line of cocaine before eating the substance,” according to the affidavit.

He also reportedly told the informant to eat the substance and wait 45 minutes before eating food or else “the high would not kick in for an extended period of time,” the affidavit states. Bell reportedly said the informant could smoke weed to “enhance the effects” of the substance, according to the affidavit.

The informant

paid Bell $75 for the substance. OSUPD tested the bottle and its contents, which weighed 23.5 grams, the affidavit states.

The substance tested positive for hallucinogens, according to the affidavit.

Bell posted his $5,000 bond about 6 p.m. Tuesday, jail officials said. A court hearing has not been scheduled.

third subsequent offense of unlawful possession of marijuana by the Payne County District Attorney’s Office on Tuesday.

Hatley’s bond was set at $2,000. He has not posted bond. His court hearing is scheduled for Sept. 22 at 1:45 p.m.

Thrasher confessed to having a marijuana pipe under the radio in his car, the police report states. Officers found a glass marijuana pipe with burnt residue along with “several zip top baggies containing marijuana residue,” according to the report.

Police found another baggie containing “a crystal-like substance believed to be methamphetamine,” the report states. Officers

also found a blue metal grinder containing “a trace amount of marijuana residue,” which the driver admitted belonged to him, the report states.

Thrasher was taken to the City of Stillwater Jail. Officers tested the substances inside the grinder and the baggie, which tested positive for marijuana and methamphetamine, the report states.

Thrasher’s bond was set at $5,000, which he posted Saturday at 4 p.m., Payne County Jail officials said.

The Payne County District Attorney’s Office had not filed charges against Thrasher as of Tuesday evening. news@ocolly.com

SGA Vice President’s success began long before Lights on Stillwater

Stetson P ay n e Staff re p o rt e r @ s t e t s o n _ _ pay n e

Taylor Dennis is more than just the vice president of the Oklahoma State University Student Government Association.

To her colleagues in SGA and her sisters in Alpha Chi Omega, she’s a model of what it takes to represent OSU students.

After only a few months in office, Dennis has already cemented her legacy in SGA with Lights on Stillwater’s success.

Her redesigned layout and budget resulted in the most successful rendition in recent memory.

Dennis spent the summer in Stillwater recruiting businesses to set up booths and participate, culminating in the Aug. 19 event with more than 9,000 attendees, 1,000 cans of donated food and $4,000 donated to the Central Oklahoma Community Action Agency. But none of that would be possible without her experience with student service.

Three years ago, Dennis arrived at OSU and immediately got involved with student government when she applied and interviewed for Freshman Representative Council.

Although Dennis wasn’t selected for FRC, she did join SGA’s Sustainability Committee, focused on recycling initiatives on campus. She said her passion for sustainability came well before her passion for

student government.

Dennis said her work in sustainability presented new opportunities and ultimately changed her career path.

“Coming from Choctaw, Oklahoma, I hadn’t even really recycled before, so it was really just a new concept to me that I really grew passionate about,” Dennis said. “I even changed my major from biology on a pre-med track to environmental science because of an SGA program.”

Dennis would eventually become the sustainability chairwoman, a position she held up until her candidacy for vice president. During her time as chairwoman, her involvement with the rest of SGA increased as she spent more time in the student life offices.

Aaron Sharp, current sustainability chairman and political science junior, worked with Dennis for two years on Sustainability Committee, including a year as vice chair with Dennis.

Sharp said Dennis’ leadership in the committee is uncommon and that following in her footsteps is no small task.

“Taylor brings a lot of energy that the group wouldn’t otherwise have,” Sharp said. “I have taken over her old position, and a lot of times I feel like I can’t get people motivated. Taylor has so much natural charisma — it’s so easy for her to get people excited.”

It’s that same charisma that put her in position to run for executive office in SGA. SGA President Kyle Hilbert and Dennis were paired to run together by friends, rather than seeking each other out. Dennis said the only way she knew Hilbert was because he was dating one of her close friends.

WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 16, 2015

taylor smith/O’COLLY Taylor Dennis, vice president of Student Government Association, got involved in student governement her freshman year at OSU in SGA’s Sustainability Committe, focusing on recylcing initiatives on campus.

Through the tumultuous 2015 election season, the two became a powerful pair in SGA and developed a close friendship. Dennis said even through the election’s controversy, the resulting friendship with Hilbert and other relationships with their supporters keep her at peace.

“The whole campaign season I was just able to build so many relationships with students, our campaign staff and especially Kyle,” Dennis said. “I think we’ll be friends forever.”

Hilbert said Dennis continues to amaze with her ability to help others, something that makes her well suited to coordinate SGA’s executive programs.

“Regardless of how much she has on her plate, she’s always willing to take the time to help others,” Hilbert said in an email.

“Her passion for people is what OCOLLY.COM

makes her the perfect vice president and the ideal person to oversee programs.”

In addition to being SGA’s vice president, Dennis also serves as the vice president of Alpha Chi Omega’s Gamma Epsilon chapter. The chapter’s president, Torrey Attyah, is also Dennis’ pledge sister and said despite her initial concerns of Dennis taking on both vice presidential positions, she has exceeded all expectations.

Attyah said Dennis’ time commitment and dedication to her work is unlike anyone else she knows.

“Taylor is honestly the most dedicated, passionate and hard working person I’ve ever met,” Attyah said. “Taking on vice president of our chapter, that alone is probably one of the most time-consuming things.

But I can’t even imagine taking

on vice president of SGA as well.”

Dennis also served as the chapter’s philanthropy chair during her sophomore and junior years. Alpha Chi Omega’s philanthropy focuses on domestic violence awareness, a philanthropy that Dennis helped revitalize during her time as chair. Attyah said her work with the program changed how the sorority runs the event for the better.

“She took it to a new level, and it was the first major position she held in this house,” Attyah said. “She went above and beyond the money we’d raised before. She actually completely changed our philanthropy and built off what we had. She left a legacy that we’re continuing from now on.” news@ocolly.com

Drilling fluid is used to lubricate drills and to seal the shaft.

He said if companies don’t dispose of waterbased mud properly, then they run the risk of salinizing groundwater or soil.

Penn said plants in overly salinized soil could show drought symptoms regardless of having adequate freshwater sources.

“The problem is that it increases the osmotic potential in the soil, which means it makes it harder for the plant to take up water,” Penn said. “So you could have lots of water

in the soil, but if there’s excessive salts, the salt holds on to the water so strongly that the plants can’t get it.”

He said companies often bury the salty mixture in reserve pits lined with a material to contain waste, which is a bad idea because they could leak.

Penn said the safest option is to thinly spread water-based mud across many acres, which reduces the long-term effects on soil fertility.

He said salinization is bad because it could render soil useless, and it could ruin groundwater reserves that many Oklahomans depend on.

“They should be told quantitatively the consequences of the reasonably worst case and be motivated to prepare for it, whether or not it may hit the present or the next generation,” Wyss said in the study.

Notebook: Cowboys back in the polls D e k o ta Gregory Sp ort s R ep o rt e r @ d e k o ta g r e g o r y

After defeating Central Arkansas 32-8 Saturday night, Oklahoma State made its first appearance of the season in the AP Top 25 Poll at No. 25. The Cowboys are also ranked 25th in the Coaches Poll.

This is OSU’s first appearance in the top 25 since Oct. 12, when the Cowboys sat at No. 15 before a five-

game losing streak.

OSU will join fellow Big 12 schools TCU, Baylor and Oklahoma in the rankings. TCU and Baylor have been in the top five since the beginning of the season and are at No. 3 and No. 5, respectively. Oklahoma climbed three spots to No. 16 after an overtime victory over Tennessee on the road.

“It’s way too early (to judge),” OSU coach Mike Gundy said. “I say this each year. You’ve gotta get up through the middle of October to get a good feel for where we’re at.”

Sinor earning credit Freshman punter Zach Sinor has been an unsung hero for the Cowboys thus far in the season.

Through two games, Sinor is averaging over 45 yards a punt and has pinned opponents inside their own 20-yard line five times.

Sinor’s 45.1 average ranks fourth in the Big 12 after two weeks of action.

“He’s really done a good job,” Gundy said. “You know how you don’t talk about no-hitters? I don’t really want to talk about his punting.” “…He’s located his punts and gotten them to where we want them” New adjustments to kicking game After Saturday night’s game, Gundy was most upset about two missed pointafter attempts by kicker Ben Grogan on OSU’s final two touchdowns.

After watching film of the game, Gundy said both of Grogan’s kicks were low during the attempts. Before Saturday, Grogan, a junior, had only missed one PAT attempt in his career.

“That’s something that’s on Ben,” Gundy said. “It doesn’t have anything to do with the snap, the hold or (special teams) coach (Robby) Discher. He’s been around long enough and kicked long enough he needs to get the ball elevated on PATs. It’s real simple.”

Grogan was perfect in field goal attempts, going 2-for-2 after missing two opportunities during the Cowboys’ season opener at Central Michigan. Grogan also struggled at the

beginning of last season, missing at least one field goal attempt in the first two games. Grogan eventually made an adjustment to his kicking mechanics and only missed three field goals the

rest of the season. Gundy said that similar adjustments might be the next step in getting Grogan back on track.

Stellar OSU defense on the hunt for More turnovers

D e k o ta Gregory S po rt s r e p o rt e r @ d e k o ta g r e g o r y

Safety Tre Flowers started the season just the way Oklahoma State defensive coordinator Glenn Spencer wanted.

Flowers picked off Central Michigan quarterback Cooper Rush on the Chippewas’ opening drive during the Cowboys’ season opener on Sept. 3.

Through two games, OSU hasn’t forced a turnover since.

“Not pleased that we can’t get a turnover,” Spencer said after Saturday’s win over Central Arkansas.

“I think this week, I’m just going to not talk about it and try that route. They played well.”

Spencer spent the offseason emphasizing the importance of turnovers to the defense, which forced 14 turnovers last year. The Cowboy even entered the 2015 season with a new motto: “We’re taking it back.”

“I don’t feel like we’re there where we want to be right now,” defensive end Emmanuel Ogbah said. “We had a mindset coming into the season that we have to get turnovers. We haven’t really gotten that that much. We still have a lot to go to be in that position.”

Despite the lone turnover, OSU has been spectacular on defense this season. The Cowboys have given up 21 points in two games, tied for 15th in the nation. OSU has also held every opponent under 100 rushing yards thus far. Oppos-

ing offenses are averaging 85 yards on the ground against the Cowboys, 21st in the nation and second in the Big 12.

“This is our job,” linebacker Ryan Simmons said. “We have to constantly keep them from scoring.

We have to give our offense good field position, and we’ve been doing that very well lately. We definitely take pride in what we do and it’s showing in our games so far.”

OSU ranks in the top half of the Big 12 in nearly every defensive category, but Spencer isn’t satisfied yet.

“We’re one game away from congratulations being condemnations, and one play away on our

side from a pat on the back,” Spencer said. “What good is it to mention that we’ve been good?

That’s so far gone now. We need to look at what’s been going on bad, what’s going to bite us.”

That improvement will come in the turnover category. Spencer has made forcing a turnover almost an artwork for the Cowboys. It’s like solving a math problem to find the best way to create a fumble or snag an interception against OSU’s next opponent. Coaches and players watch for how opposing ball carriers carry the football to find a way to punch it out. They also look for certain plays that could possibly open up an opportunity to force OCOLLY.COM

their second turnover of the year.

It’s an art form that the defensive players try to perfect during practice against their teammates.

“That’s when film comes,” Ogbah said. “We watch everything.

We watch how they run. We watch the offensive line’s movement if it’s a run or a pass. That can help us better to react and make a play.”

If the OSU defense continues its dominance and improves its turnover margin, it could wreak havoc with one game left before conference play begins.

“We can potentially be a great defense,” Ogbah said. “Just keep working hard, keep playing better and get better every week.”

Compete to be one of the best defenses in the conference?

“Most definitely,” Ogbah said.

“If not the best in the Big 12.” sports@ocolly.com
