(The Center Square) – Colorado’s Oil and Gas Conservation Commission will now be known as the Energy and Carbon Management Commission within the Department of Natural Resources.

SB23-285, signed into law by Democratic Gov. Jared Polis in May, included the name change, effective July 1. The bill was sponsored by Sens. Kevin Priola, D-Boulder, and Chris Hansen, D-Denver, and Reps. Karen McCormick, D-Longmont, and Ruby Dickson, D-Greenwood Village.

The first two years of commission costs will include hiring technical experts, including three engineers. Lawmakers also appropriated funds for conducting four studies, including a $175,000 geothermal study. Costs also covered will be rule making, community outreach and engagement ($50,000 annually), agency coordination, creation of databases and forms, rebranding the commission ($25,000) and updating the commission’s website ($100,000). Stakeholder engagement and rule making are expected to take approximately two years, according to the fiscal note.

That's because Denver controls Colorado,and they have the ski resort leftists votes to back them up,and Denver is controlled by refugees from Ca.

It was like this when I was living there in the early 70's,and it has only gotten worse since then as more rich lefties leave CA and move to Colorado to escape all the poor refugees who have flooded Ca.
