The debate is over, the new rules are set, but their effect on the Western Slope’s lifeblood industry is up in the air. The Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission has new rules, and Ron Green, and people like him, have a stake in their effects.
Green said, “The rules are here to make sure the industry and the land can work together for 10, 20, 30 years from now.”
Dean Riggs, with the Colorado Division of Wildlife, said, “This is education, and it’s a good start.”
Ron Green works on the 24-inch pipeline that runs through Collbran. Ron’s holding out on making predictions because the new regulations won’t start going into effect until next month.
Dean Riggs tells us the meetings aren’t mandatory, but more than 50 representatives from local outfits sat, listened, and weren’t allowed to ask questions. The COGCC took some heat for the jam-packed sessions without room for comments, but the energy industry knows the new rules aren’t just a suggestion. The new rules on private land start April 1st. The updated regulations on federal land begin in May.
