Union activities and correspondence from 1930 until 1933 clearly suggest that union leaders did not want to commit themselves to new organizing, especially in the South. They felt that anti-​union repression was so strong and labor market conditions so deplorable that it would be a waste of the dwindling resources of the union to make such an attempt. In 1930, as southern miners, particularly in Alabama, began to hold meetings and organize, District 20 (Alabama) director George Hargrove and President Lewis agreed that there would be no "bread wagon" (i.e., financial support) from the UMWA and no help for those discharged in such campaigns. They also agreed that organizing would have no positive effect at this time and would only result in discharges. As Lewis wrote to John Lillich of Carbon Hill, Alabama, "Under present circumstances the International Union is disinclined to spend any money in Alabama." Instead, union leaders' strategy in the early 1930s was to put their efforts into lobbying for support of the Davis-​Kelly coal bill, which they believed might make organizing coal miners easier. In attempting to mobilize such support, they also made appeals, and exposed the highly repressive conditions, to other AFL unions, which generally supported, at least on paper, the UMWA's legislative efforts. Lewis's lobbying emphasis switched, first in late 1932, to strengthening the labor provisions of the Black Bill, then to including 7(a) in the NIRA.

But a strange thing happened while the UMWA leaders were lobbying for their provisions. Miners throughout the country began to organize and form vibrant locals on their own. On May 27, 1933, Lewis appointed his loyal follower Van Bittner as the new president of District 17 (West Virginia), as well as other new districts in West Virginia, Virginia, and Maryland. Lewis regularly informed Bittner of the progress of the NIRA and occasionally asked, almost incidentally, how things were going. At one point, Bittner replies that the miners have been organizing on their own, and there are no organizers to help and service them. Lewis telegrams back to say that he is reassigning organizers and that money is on the way. Van Bittner replies that miners have already organized a local in Ethel, the "heart of Logan County" (the most notoriously repressive of West Virginia counties). While Lewis was telling his officials that they would be in good stead to organize once the NIRA and 7(a) passed, the miners had already organized. Bittner describes this process in a report to Lewis on June 17. By June 22, 1933, Bittner writes to Lewis: "As I have reported to you heretofore, the work of organizing the miners in West Virginia is progressing more rapidly than I had ever dreamed of. The entire Northern field, as well as the New River, Winding Gulf, Kanawha field, Mingo and Logan are all completely organized. We will finish up in McDowell, Mercer and Wyoming counties this week." The same was true for Maryland and Virginia. "I feel that by the end of the week we can report a complete organization of these fields."

It Could Cost $21 Billion to Clean Up California’s Oil Sites, Study Finds

For well over a century, the oil and gas industry has drilled holes across California in search of black gold and a lucrative payday. But with production falling steadily, the time has come to clean up many of the nearly quarter-million wells scattered from downtown Los Angeles to western Kern County and across the state.

The bill for that work, however, will vastly exceed all the industry’s future profits in the state, according to a first-of-its-kind study published Thursday and shared with ProPublica.

“This major issue has sneaked up on us,” said Dwayne Purvis, a Texas-based petroleum reservoir engineer who analyzed profits and cleanup costs for the report. “Policymakers haven’t recognized it. Industry hasn’t recognized it, or, if they have, they haven’t talked about it and acted on it.”

The analysis, which was commissioned by Carbon Tracker Initiative, a financial think tank that studies how the transition away from fossil fuels impacts markets and the economy, used California regulators’ draft methodology for calculating the costs associated with plugging oil and gas wells and decommissioning them along with related infrastructure. The methodology was developed with feedback from the industry.

The report broke down the costs into several categories. Plugging wells, dismantling surface infrastructure and decontaminating polluted drill sites would cost at least $13.2 billion, based on publicly available data. Adding in factors with slightly more uncertainty, like inflation rates and the price of decommissioning miles of pipeline, could bring the total cleanup bill for California’s onshore oil and gas industry to $21.5 billion.

Meanwhile, California oil and gas production will earn about $6.3 billion in future profits over the remaining course of operations, Purvis estimated.

Compounding the problem, the industry has set aside only about $106 million that state regulators can use for cleanup when a company liquidates or otherwise walks away from its responsibilities, according to state data. That amount equals less than 1% of the estimated cost.

Taxpayers will likely have to cover much of the difference to ensure wells are plugged and not left to leak brine, toxic chemicals and climate-warming methane.

“These findings detail why the state must ensure this cost is not passed along to the California taxpayer,” state Sen. Monique Limón, a Santa Barbara Democrat who has written legislation regulating oil, said in a statement. “It is important that the state collect funding to plug and abandon wells in a timely and expeditious manner.”

Representatives of the state’s oil regulatory agency, the California Geologic Energy Management Division, did not respond to ProPublica’s request for comment on the report’s findings.

Rock Zierman, CEO of the California Independent Petroleum Association, an industry trade group, said in a statement that companies spent more than $400 million last year to plug and clean up thousands of oil and gas wells in the state. “This demonstrates their dedication to fulfilling their obligations and mitigating the environmental impact of their operations,” he said.

Fees on current oil and gas production will offset some of the liabilities, but they’re nowhere near enough to address the shortfall quantified by the new report.

“It really scares me,” Kyle Ferrar, Western program coordinator with environmental and data transparency group FracTracker Alliance, said of the report’s findings. “It’s a lot for the state, even a state as big as California.”

Industry in Decline

High oil prices have translated to huge profits for the industry in recent years, but Carbon Tracker’s report found that’s likely to be short-lived. Only two drilling rigs were operating in the state at one point this year, meaning few new wells will be coming online, and more than a third of all unplugged wells are idle.

Judson Boomhower, an environmental economist and assistant professor at the University of California, San Diego who has studied California’s oil industry, said there are inherent uncertainties in estimating future oil revenues. For example, one variable is how quickly the country shifts from internal combustion engine vehicles to electric. But, he said, Carbon Tracker’s estimates for environmental liabilities track with his research.

“It’s a state in the twilight of its production period, and that means big liabilities,” Boomhower said. He added that now is the time for regulators to prevent companies from offloading their wells to “thinly capitalized firms” unable to shoulder the cleanup.

As ProPublica reported last year, the major oil companies that long dominated in California and have the deep pockets necessary to pay for environmental cleanup are selling their wells and leaving the state, handing the task to smaller and less well-financed companies.

Roughly half of the wells drilled in California have changed hands through sales and bankruptcies since 2010, according to data Ferrar analyzed.

Smaller companies are often one bankruptcy away from their wells being orphaned, meaning they’re left to taxpayers as companies dissolve. The Biden administration recently committed $4.7 billion in taxpayer funds to plug orphan wells.

And the industry’s environmental liabilities in California are far bigger than Carbon Tracker’s report quantifies.

Purvis only included environmental liabilities associated with onshore oil and gas production. Billions of dollars more will be needed to plug offshore wells, remove rigs and reclaim artificial islands used for drilling off the coast of Long Beach, Ventura and Santa Barbara.

Additionally, the report did not quantify the emerging risk of “zombie wells,” which were plugged years ago to weaker standards and are likely to leak if they aren’t replugged. That’s an expensive endeavor, as the average cost to plug one well in California — to say nothing of cleaning up surface contamination — is $69,000, according to Purvis’ research. But some California wells have already begun failing, including in neighborhoods in Los Angeles.

“They’re Not Going to Have Money to Do It Later”

Time is running out to rectify the funding shortfall, for example by increasing the money companies must set aside for well plugging.

Carbon Tracker’s report — using state production data and financial futures contracts on the New York Mercantile Exchange — estimated that as production declines, 58% of all future profits from drilling oil and gas in the state are likely to come over the next two years.

“We have our backs up against the wall in California right now,” Ferrar said. “If companies don’t put money towards it now, they’re not going to have money to do it later.”

Environmental policies could accelerate the industry’s decline. California voters will decide on a ballot initiative in 2024 that would reinstate large buffer zones between communities and oil wells, limiting drilling.

Purvis said acting quickly to plug wells would also “stimulate economic activity” and help smooth the transition for oil and gas workers who stand to lose well-paying jobs in the shift away from climate-warming fossil fuels. Spending large sums to plug old wells would create short-term employment for oil field workers.

As California faces the consequences of its failure to quickly clean up aging oil and gas infrastructure, there are likely several million more wells around the country that are either low-producing or already orphaned and will soon need to be decommissioned.

“California’s going to be a test case or the leading edge of this,” Boomhower said. “This same problem is eventually going to manifest everywhere.”

Dell Trusted Device & SafeBIOS: Pillars Of Endpoint Security

The Trade Secret of Dell’s Reliable Devices. Have you ever wondered why it products are the safest business PCs on the market? Dell SafeBIOS and Dell Trusted Device (DTD) software are two special endpoint security features that are included with Dell Technologies business PCs.

Dell SafeBIOS: Protecting the Device at the Deepest Levels

With integrated firmware attack detection, Dell SafeBIOS is a set of features that reduces the possibility of BIOS and firmware manipulation. It includes partner technologies in addition to Dell’s exclusive intellectual property. It integrate these features to help make sure devices are safe at the BIOS level, which is often unprotected but is undoubtedly recognized to hackers as a place to take advantage of if it is weak. BIOS-level attacks have the potential to be very destructive and covert. Additionally, malware gains control of the PC and network access when it takes control of the BIOS.

Some of these features, such as BIOS Guard and Intel Boot Guard, are industry standards. The others, including Indicators of Attack, or IoA, which identifies potentially harmful changes to BIOS properties, are only offered by Dell. Image Capture for Forensic Analysis is another example of a feature offered by Dell that goes beyond the standard option of only switching back to the reliable BIOS. This feature may assist protect the device by capturing a snapshot of the faulty BIOS and making it accessible for forensic investigation. It enables security operations centers (SOCs) to examine the incident in order to assist stop similar assaults in the future.

The BIOS safeguards of Dell and it partner are robust on their own. However, because security is a team sport, Dell has teamed up with top partners to strengthen protection “below the OS,” which is where far too many assaults nowadays start.

Dell Trusted Device (DTD) Software: Maximizing Protections Through PC Telemetry

Dell tops the industry in BIOS safeguards, as shown by SafeBIOS IoA and Image Capture. But how can all that telemetry help you? DTD software is useful in this situation. Through endpoint telemetry communication between the device and a secure Dell cloud, DTD software optimizes SafeBIOS capabilities and offers special below-the-OS insights on security “health.”

The transmission of the data ensures that the BIOS is being measured. The IT administrator is alerted to potential manipulation if any feature reports suddenly change.

Dell Trusted Device program offers telemetry to activate many Dell SafeBIOS functions, including BIOS Verification and IoA, which identify BIOS firmware manipulation. Additionally, it offers to Health Score, a feature that combines multiple indicators into a single, easily readable security score, and Intel ME (Management Engine) Verification, which checks the integrity of highly privileged ME firmware on the platform by comparing it with previously measured hashes (stored off-host).

The Windows Event Viewer, which is a record of system and application messages, including warnings, information messages, and problems, provides the administrator with alerts. It’s a helpful tool for problem-solving.

How DTD Software Improves Security and Manageability

It wide partner connections allow Dell Trusted Device software to function in many of the clients’ settings, which is one of its main benefits. Actually, only Dell enhances fleet-wide security by combining device telemetry with cutting-edge software. True hardware-assisted security is the outcome of this.

DTD software can provide telemetry to SIEMs like Splunk, endpoint management like Microsoft Intune and Carbon Black Cloud, and third-party security programs like VMware Carbon Black and CrowdStrike Falcon.

These connections not only help you maximize your software investments, but they also enhance threat detection and response by providing a fresh set of device-level data. To keep releasing updates to Dell Trusted Device software that allow for more integration options since the understand how much it clients enjoy being able to see (for example, security warnings) in the settings of their choice.

For instance, it increased the number of important feature integrations in the Intune environment this autumn. With more features to be included in further DTD versions, Intune administrators may now access more information from BIOS Verification, Intel ME Firmware Verification, and Secured Component Verification (also known as SCV, a component integrity check exclusive to Dell).

Take Advantage of Dell’s Built-in Security

These safeguards, which are all part of the device’s price, are probably already advantageous to you if you own or oversee Dell business PCs.

With the built-in capabilities of Dell SafeBIOS, all Dell business PCs instantly increase the security of any fleet.

Your PC came with Dell Trusted Device software if you bought a commercial device after August 2023. Nous now ship with the “standard” image and pre-install DTD software at the plants. To download and install the program on older devices or for companies who would rather use their own picture, go this link.
