    yup. I’m working in Colorado on implementation of recent legislation to require oil and gas operators to submit a measurement-informed inventory of their emissions, instead of using assumed emissions values for their equipment.

      Good luck. I’ve already lost hope that we can rein in gas companies in Colorado but it would be amazing if you did.

        We have a better shot than lots of other states. Keep an eye out the next few years for information around AQCC Reg 7 and the Oil & Gas Emissions Intensity Rule.
