Due to the recent home explosion near the Colorado town of Firestone Gov. John Hickenlooper ordered a review of all oil, gas operations by the Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (COGCC). “Moving forward, the COGCC must take decisive action and not allow any oil and gas activity unless it is proven to be safe to human health and our air and water. The fact that the commission is even considering appealing a court decision applying this standard is shocking.” — Pete Maysmith, executive director of Conservation Colorado
