I recently submitted a comment to the Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission regarding the ongoing rule-making process. In my comment, concerns about the rule-making process were highlighted. The COGCC Web site has a tab for viewing comments and letters from those who oppose energy development.

I, however, did not see a single one of the 1,000-plus hand-written post cards that those of us who work in the industry took the time to write. This is an issue about fairness and transparency. Either the COGCC should post all the comments, or none. If the agency doesn’t have the resources to post my comment on the Web, then what business do they have writing a rule that will affect my company, the economy and the jobs of thousands of people?
