MEDIA CORRECTION; The abandoned oil well near Poets Park Ladera Ranch CA is NOT located under anyone's house as Clara Harter LA Times reported Aug 30

MEDIA CORRECTION: The decades old abandoned oil well near Poets Park in Ladera Ranch CA is NOT located under anyone's house as reporter Clara Harter LA Times reported Aug 30, 2026, it is under the street close to where a manhole cover is located marked SEWER. Note, LA Times reporter Clara Harter it is not a good idea to falsely list the home owners address on Agapanthus Street as the exact location for an abandoned oil well from 1961 as being under their house, this is libelous and could affect the value of the house. LA Times reporter Clara Harter appears to be somewhat of a recent college graduate must have matriculated from the 'University of Mars', because sure as hell don't know how to locate anything down here on earth, moron!

The exact location off all abandoned oil wells in California is found in Cal-Gen well finder by the oil wells API number. The oil wells location is given in Latitude and Longitude numbers, the well near Poets Park Ladera Ranch CA is 33°32'44.1"N  117°38'10.3"W, it is under the street by the sewer manhole cover, it is under the street and not under anyone's house like what Clara Harter at the LA Times published on Aug 30th, 2026, click on numbers for map.

Note media at LA Times Clara Harter and Zain Khan at California Post, a dry well (DH) is not a well void of all contents you can't take a flashlight and look down the 8,365 foot dry hole and see the bottom, OMG. A "dry hole" (DH) in California—including the one drilled down 8,365 feet in 1961 under Poets Park—does not mean absolutely nothing was found, "do a little research and prep work before you publish your conclusions". 

In the oil and gas industry, a "dry hole" is a strict economic and regulatory term, not a literal description of an empty borehole. The California Geologic Energy Management Division (CalGEM, formerly DOGGR) classifies a well as a dry hole (DH) if it is incapable of producing oil or gas in sufficient quantities to justify commercial completion, they still leak oil.

VIDEO/AUDIO; CA Post Reporter Zain Khan Calls Me to get original of 'This Well Not To Be Built Over' Citrus Lane Ladera Ranch CA. "Do your own prep work and research reporter Zain Khan". What a moron this dude is. CA Post Reporter Zain Khan Calls me to get original 'This Well Not To Be Built Over' for Citrus Lane Ladera Ranch CA. After talking with CA POST reporter Zain Khan early on Sunday August 30th, 2026, (after Khan had left a lengthy voicemail from 213-512-5616), about the decades old oil wells I discovered under Ladera Ranch CA and how they were not properly re-plugged during construction by DMB Ladera LLC in 2001, Khan proceeded to use my "priority material on the oil wells" failing to attribute the source, calling his story EXCLUSIVE DETAILS.
