Starting on September 20, 2010 (of which the event on February 27, 2011, was the largest, at magnitude 4.7), the area around Guy was plagued by more than 500 earthquakes. The temblors, ranging from 1.8 (barely noticeable) to 4.7 (very obvious), are being investigated by the US Geological Survey and the Arkansas Oil and Gas Commission. The quakes may be related to the injection of salt and other waste water into deep wells to dispose of the fluid without contaminating surface or ground water.[8][9]
