Who Might Join Colorado’s New Oil and Gas Task Force?

Denver Business Journal reports that “a lot of people want to be on Colorado’s latest hot seat.”  

“In this case, that means Gov. John Hickenlooper’s still-to-be formed task force that will look at how to juggle oil and gas operations and the desires of local governments and communities.”  

“State officials have said about 250 names have been submitted for the 20-member task force, which will be co-chaired by XTO Energy Inc. President Randy Cleveland and La Plata County Commissioner Gwen Lachelt, founder of the environmental group Earthworks’ Oil & Gas Accountability Project.”
