Eagle Pass

A very important topic is being promoted by the Eagle Pass Chamber of Commerce in that, due to the sudden finding of petroleum in our general vicinity, the COC has made contact with a company which can help landowners determine if in fact oil or natural gas can be found on their properties.      In Dimmitt and La Salle Counties, there is a veritable boom of both petroleum and natural gas have been in progress for quite some time now, and these natural resources may extend into Maverick County.      Sandra Martinez of the Chamber of Commerce, informed The News Gram that the company will be making a presentation on December 19th at 8:00 A.M. at a restaurant on Bibb St.      These experts will touch on the benefits and aspects of finding these resources and the disadvantages of having oil and natural gas and the possibilities of signing contracts with these major corporations.      Come by and learn what you may get out of this interesting presentation or call the Eagle Pass Chamber of Commerce for more information.
