The growing concern over hydraulic fracturing, the technology that has produced an oil and gas boom in many parts of the country, has caught the attention of California lawmakers as oil producers seek to expand production in the San Joaquin Valley oil fields. At least eight bills seeking to regulate or tax the industry's expansion are under consideration in this year's legislative session. (AP Photo/Susan Sterner, File)
