State control can be a double edge sword. For example, fracking is rampant in Wyoming.
Where my situation related only to us, what you describe seems to affect a larger population. Have they gone to their state representatives to address the regulations by tweaking the laws to be more realistic?
I've been oil-drilling adjacent much of my life. As to dust, I assume it's from the drill site and roads put in for the various support vehicles. In my day, the '60s, they oiled the roads and bare dirt. Do they do that now? My experience was with standard rigs and I have no experience with fracking so I'm not sure of the noise level. I believe that most of the problem is with those who surrendered their mineral right in the first place. Are these leases? We still own the mineral rights under our, now sold, OK surface land. The gas well leases are active but the oil sits idle. Send them my way. I can use the money, too. :D
