A whole lotta shaking goin' on - Sakhalin Island, Russia
Some largish (M6.1)
temblors at Sakhalin Island -- key issue is that this is a major area for Russian oil extraction plus a whale sanctuary. A company I used to work for in Seattle did a project for this which I was involved in. Can't talk about it much but it was a very fun couple of days with some cool toys.
And the Russians involved were incredibly concerned for the environment -- motivated in part by the public visibility of the project but there was a major concern for the place that was palpable. They are doing good work...
