[Denveraudubon] Fw: Alert! Attend important hearing in Denver of June 23rd!

[Polly P. Reetz]

The conservation community is revving up for the hearings - the oil and gas companies paid their employees to pack the one in Grand Junction, so the Oil and Gas Commission needs to hear from conservationists!

Add your voice in Support of Common-Sense Protections
for Colorado’s Water, Wildlife and Communities

Please join us at the Colorado Oil and Gas Commission public hearing in
Denver on Monday, June 23rd!

There is a record-setting oil and gas boom in Colorado that is
threatening our water quality, wildlife habitat and communities. The
state agency which oversees oil and gas drilling in Colorado, is in the
midst of updating decade old environmental protections for Colorado’s
air, water and wildlife. The draft rules are a good start but need to be
strengthened!

This is the only opportunity on the Front Range to publicly address the
oil and gas commission and ensure that oil and gas drilling does not hurt
what we all love about Colorado! Please join members of the conservation
community at the Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission public
hearing in Denver on June 23rd!

Come early (7am if you can!) to ensure you get a chance to speak in favor
of strong new protections for water, wildlife and our communities!

Members of conservation groups will be gathering outside of the Paramount
Theatre starting at 6:45am. Look for us out front!

Oil and Gas Public Hearing 8:00 a.m.-12:00 p.m.

The Paramount Theatre
1621 Glenarm Place
