The Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) has certain exceptions that can protect sensitive information related to gas and oil wells. Specifically, the information that is typically protected includes:
- Location: Information about the specific location of gas and oil wells can be withheld if its disclosure could lead to environmental risks or security concerns.
While other categories like profitability, type, and reliability may be relevant to the operations of gas and oil wells, the key protected information under FOIA generally pertains to location due to concerns regarding security and environmental protection.
Please consult legal documents or an expert for the most accurate and specific interpretation regarding FOIA exceptions as they can vary based on jurisdiction and context.
