ADVANCE FOR USE TUESDAY, APRIL 29, 2014 AND THEREAFTER - In this Wednesday, Feb. 26, 2014 photo, Gordon Levang, 95, holds a photo of one of his family's longtime homes in Watford City, N.D. A retired farmer who now lives in that home in town, Levang says the population growth and development in the area has been astounding for a town that once had 1,500 residents and now has as many as 7,000 in the town and its outskirts. As a lifelong resident of the area, and even though there were two other booms in the region, he says he's never seen anything like this. He says oil has been found on his family's farm outside town in all three oil booms. (AP Photo/Martha Irvine)

ADVANCE FOR USE TUESDAY, APRIL 29, 2014 AND THEREAFTER - In this Wednesday, Feb. 26, 2014 photo, Gordon Levang, 95, talks on a telephone in his home in Watford City, N.D. Levang, a retired farmer, says residents have no choice but to embrace the changes that this latest oil boom has brought to their town. Oil has been found on his family's farm in all three oil booms in this region. He now lives in town and his children run the farm outside of town. He says the increase in the town's population, from 1,500 to as many as 7,000, requires him to be more patient, waiting in traffic and in lines at the grocery store. (AP Photo/Martha Irvine)
