Interim studies are an annual tradition in the fall in Oklahoma.

From discussions about making the state a "global hub for suborbital aerospace activity" to dealing with the state's feral hog problem, and everything in between, lawmakers are starting their hearings in earnest this month.

The studies will run through early November in various committee rooms throughout the state capitol.

The Senate has yet to publish a schedule for meetings in the coming months.
