Desert Mountain Energy Applauds EPA Administrator’s Approval

Desert Mountain Energy Corp. recently celebrated a significant milestone for Arizona's energy sector with the formal approval by U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator Lee Zeldin of Arizona's application for primacy over permitting and regulatory responsibilities of underground injection wells. This decision is vital in enabling the state to manage and oversee crucial operations in oil, gas, and helium production.

The approval grants Arizona the authority to regulate underground injection wells under the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA), a power previously held at the federal level. Desert Mountain Energy had the honor to participate in this landmark event in Washington, D.C., where representatives from various Arizona sectors gathered to witness this important progression for the state’s energy and environmental future.

Robert Rohlfing, the CEO of Desert Mountain Energy Corp, expressed gratitude towards Administrator Zeldin for his leadership and dedication to enhancing regulatory efficiency within the western United States. He emphasized the approval as a tremendous victory for Arizona, reinforcing the state’s sovereignty while paving the way for responsible development of its rich natural resources.

Desert Mountain Energy acknowledges the persistent efforts of local Congress members, specifically Congressman Juan Ciscomani, Congressman Andy Biggs, and Congressman Paul Gosar. Their advocacy played a critical role in securing this significant achievement for Arizona's energy landscape. The support from these leaders is instrumental in prioritizing common-sense regulatory reforms, which are essential for progressing towards a sustainable energy future.

With the state now empowered to handle the permitting process for the Underground Injection Control (UIC) program, Desert Mountain Energy is optimistic about enhancing domestic energy and helium production. The company remains committed to sustainable resource extraction practices, ensuring that developmental activities align with environmental responsibility.

Recently, Desert Mountain Energy announced the final closing of its private placement offering. The fourth tranche of this non-brokered private placement resulted in raising an additional C$10,000 by issuing 40,000 Units priced at C$0.25 per Unit, bringing the total capital raised during this offering to C$981,500 through the issuance of 3,926,000 Units. This influx of capital will support the company's ongoing projects, particularly in helium extraction, which remains a focus area due to its crucial significance in renewable energy and high-technology industries.

The units issued in this fourth tranche are currently subject to a four-month hold period, with warrants that have a potential expiration in May 2026. Desmond Mountain Energy is committed to operational transparency and maintaining stakeholder confidence as it pursues its ambitious goals in resource exploration and sustainable practices.

As Desert Mountain Energy forges ahead, the company upholds its commitment to innovative practices in helium extraction. By focusing on environmentally friendly methodologies, they aim to supply essential elements deemed critical for advancing technologies within various industries, ensuring a sustainable future in resource development. The company continues to stand as a facilitator of responsible energy practices, contributing positively to both the local economy and the environment.

In summary, the approval by the EPA represents a monumental shift towards localized control of energy resources in Arizona, setting a template for proactive, sustainable practices in the energy sector. Desert Mountain Energy is proud to be at the forefront of this change, advocating for innovation while ensuring responsible management of the state’s natural wealth.
