We have had so many successes and achievements over the past 12 months, I don’t really know where to begin or end. GPA continues its strive to be the authoritative voice of the midstream industry on behalf of our membership. It seems like just yesterday, we were scrambling to accommodate the biggest turnout for a GPA Convention in recent history. All the while, we were dealing with key legislative and regulatory issues, working on our own policy improvements, continuing research initiatives, growing chapter involvement, being active internationally, planning the 2012 convention and more. And speaking of legislative and regulatory issues, we are particularly proud of the outstanding efforts of our Environmental Committee’s work on the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) RICE MACT and Subpart W issues. Their efforts have decisively challenged EPA into making significant changes to their rulemakings that enormously benefit GPA members. Without the efforts of this committee, GPA member companies would be subject to paying literally hundreds of millions of dollars in additional regulatory expenses.

More than 10,000 prehistoric sites are recorded for the state, and they are estimated to represent about 10 percent of the actual number, according to archaeologist Don G. Wyckoff. Some of these sites pertain to the lives of Oklahoma’s original settlers—the Wichita and Caddo, and perhaps such relative latecomers as the Kiowa Apache, Osage, Kiowa, and Comanche.

Douglas said the first two days of what could be considered “business as usual” clearly showed the challenging and varied responsibilities of the Commission. “In our daily public meetings on Monday and Tuesday, the Commissioners voted on 134 orders ranging from matters involving millions of dollars in oil and natural gas activity, to the fuel costs paid by utility customers, to protecting the environment and the public from an ancient abandoned oil well to helping a service station stay in business while still meeting environmental requirements,” Douglas said. “Given the broad scope of this agency’s responsibilities, it’s vital we continue the work to improve our service to those we regulate, consumers, and to the taxpayer,” Douglas added. “I am excited to spearhead a strategic planning process that will bring some of the best ideas of the private sector into the public sector.” Douglas was appointed to the Commission by Governor Mary Fallin in October 2011 to fill the vacancy created by the resignation of Jeff Cloud.
