Description: This indicator provides information about the geographic locations of oil and gas wells. All records include operator name, field name, latitude, and longitude coordinates, well type, and well status.

Oil and gas wells are located throughout Los Angeles County, including in residential areas. Living or working near oil and gas wells can lead to negative health effects. Additionally, oil and gas well activity can generate significant noise and vibrations in a community. Although Los Angeles County has approved a ban on all new oil and gas wells, with plans to phase out drilling over the next 20 years, potential hazards may remain. Regulation of existing oil and gas wells (both active and inactive) is critical to protecting public safety and the environment.
