Short Description of Activity
We met with our Local Government Designee at the Routt County Planning office to discuss strengthening local oil and gas regs. Although they were resistant at first they did say Routt was revamping many regulations and that they would consider our suggestions in a written format.
Reflection/Evaluation
See above. We feel like the door is still open and plan to follow up with a written summary of why it is important to update/strengthen local regs and what simple measures can be taken to do this.
