Why is this important?
Oil and gas development has increased dramatically in the Front Range in recent years. In Central & Western Adams County, the greatest health risk is air quality from the large number of wells in Weld County to our north. There are also dangers to water quality from spills and leaks. The COGCC (Colorado Oil & Gas Conservation Commission) has a dual role to regulate AND PROMOTE the industry. There are seven bills in the Colorado State House & Senate to fix these problems. Please sign the petition & tell our Representatives that you support this legislation.
