Letter: Uinta Basin Railway is a horrible idea

FILE - This Oct. 9, 2018, file photo shows an oil rig and pump jack in Midland, Texas. The Environmental Integrity Project noted in a report released Thursday, May 9, 2019, that the Permian Basin, which include some West Texas cities, such as Midland, is one of the most productive hydrocarbon regions in the world. But the report says a consequence of that production is dangerous levels of sulfur dioxide escaping into the air around Odessa and other locations. (Jacob Ford/Odessa American via AP, File)
