Routt County’s oil and gas working group used its first meeting Wednesday to make a significant dent in the review of 61 conditions of approval for oil and gas permits.
The volunteer group of local property owners, county officials and industry professionals waded through the first 47 conditions of approval, many of which apply to most permit applications.
The process will resume at the group’s next meeting, scheduled for 5:30 p.m. Jan. 4 in the historic Routt County Courthouse. About 30 members of the public attended Wednesday’s three-hour meeting, but there was no public comment.
Routt County Planning Director Chad Phillips said after the meeting that he thought the group made good progress.
