The Adams County Board of Commissioners voted 3-1 for new oil and gas regulations at a July 27 public hearing, making the county the first in Colorado to revise its policies since new statewide regulations took effect in January. The regulations increase setback distances to 2,000 feet from homes, schools, daycares, environmentally sensitive areas, and parks and open spaces. The text amendments also expand the definition of environmentally sensitive areas and require closer monitoring of nuisance impacts.

The new owners of Colorado Community Media have named Linda Shapley the news company’s publisher. Shapley, a lifelong Coloradan, has been a senior news executive at The Denver Post and Colorado Politics magazine in a career in print and digital news and communication spanning more than 30 years. She will lead CCM’s two-dozen Colorado newspapers and websites, including this one, as well as other publications as the company’s first publisher since the May announcement of its sale by Jerry and Ann Healey to The Colorado News Conservancy, a partnership of The Colorado Sun and the National Trust for Local News dedicated to fostering community journalism. CCM newspapers servce Adams, Arapahoe, Clear Creek, Denver, Douglas, Elbert, Jefferson and Weld counties. “I am excited and honored to be assuming this role, especially during such a critical time in our industry,” Shapley said. “Anyone

Linda Shapley

who knows me knows I am an ardent supporter of local news, and my main goal is to tirelessly work at building a team that strengthens the bond a community has with its newspaper.” Shapley has been managing editor of Colorado Politics, affiliated with the Colorado Springs Gazette and Denver Gazette, since October 2019. Before that she was customer experience director at communications company Deke Digital and managing editor of The Denver Post, overseeing news operations and coverage.

Larry Ryckman, co-founder and editor of The Colorado Sun, said he was excited to be able to work with his former Post colleague again. Ryckman noted that Shapley “worked in many different roles and departments during her time at The Post and oversaw print production for news events large and small. She also led The Post’s community engagement initiative along with other operational duties.” Prior to The Post, Shapley worked at The Kansas City Star, the Greeley Tribune and the Fort Worth StarTelegram. She is a Colorado State

University graduate and a former vice president of the Denver Press Club. Elizabeth Hansen Shapiro, CEO of the National Trust for Local News and a Colorado News Conservancy board member, said CCM’s owners “conducted an extensive, thorough search, and a number of highly qualified applicants expressed interest in the position. In Linda we found an experienced leader with a combination of strong newsroom chops, organizational skills and budgeting acumen. She’s a great listener, has boundless energy and is passionate about community news. On top of all that, she is a lifelong Coloradan with deep roots in Weld County.” Shapley joins CCM on Aug. 23.

Common Solar Scams #1

Colorado Law Requires Rooftop Solar Installations False. Homebuilders must offer rooftop solar options or makeready wiring for solar on newly constructed homes only.

United Power does NOT contract with any rooftop solar installers. It is a RED FLAG if a solar representative claims to be working with or on behalf of the cooperative.

Along with Pinter, Board Chairperson Eva Henry and Commissioner Lynn Baca voted for the regulations, while Commissioner Chaz Tedesco dissented. Commissioner Steve O’Dorisio was absent.

Local regulations allowed A 2019 state law, Senate Bill 181, gave local governments more regulatory authority over oil and gas drilling. It also gave direction to the Colorado Oil and Gas Commission to revise statewide regulations, which the commission did last November.

tions again when the statewide regulations changed. Some of the regulations the commissioners approved on Tuesday match the Colorado Oil and Gas Commission regulations, while others are more strict. Adams County will measure setbacks differently than the state and has established a bigger setback distance from streams, lakes, rivers, springs and wetlands. The county also created a wider zone around drilling operations requiring drilling companies to conduct regular noise monitoring and community outreach. Industry concerns Many community members and industry representatives criticized the stricter setback regulations during the public hearing, arguing that it significantly limits the areas where drilling can occur and thus, limits drilling operations overall. The Colorado Oil and Gas Association “has justifiable concerns that the rules are a ban cloaked as regulation,” said Ryan Seastrom, regulatory affairs manager for the Colorado Oil and Gas Association (COGA), at the public hearing. “Even if the setbacks don’t function as a ban, the county not having clear criteria for how it will evaluate permit applications invites arbitrary and capricious decision-making.” Others criticized the regulations for the potential negative impact on jobs. “Without realizing how oil and gas production affects almost every aspect of our daily lives, I believe you are taking bad legislation and making it worse,” said Steve Yaussy, who lives in Northglenn.

Threading the needle Meanwhile, environmental activists said the regulations don’t go far enough. Andrew Forkes-Gudmundson, deputy director of the League of Oil and Gas Impacted Coloradans (LOGIC), said that LOGIC wants the county to shorten the lifespan of a drilling permit, and enhance nuisance impact protections. Forkes-Gudmundson praised the county for adding provisions that recognize communities disproportionately impacted by oil and gas drilling, but said, “there doesn’t appear to be any substantive protections built into these regulations.” In her concluding remarks, Henry said the issue is a difficult needle to thread, but that she’s happy with the regulations. “It’s one of those situations where we are damned if we do and damned if we don’t,” Henry said. “So that’s when I find when we hit the sweet spot, because both sides are angry.”

Since the founding of our nation, the role of newspapers in our democracy has been crystal clear. We have been, and will continue to be, the eyes and ears of the American people. After all, the right of free speech is meaningless if no one knows what’s really going on. That’s why more than 100 million Americans depend on their hometown newspapers daily and why today’s newsrooms are staffed with dedicated, highly trained reporters and experienced editors who bring you the very best journalism found anywhere, in print and online.
