Like the residents of the Colorado Springs area, our industry too is fighting our own fire of sorts. It is a fire of regulations that is being fraught upon us by government. When it comes to the number of regulatory and tax proposals being made across the producing states and on a national level, it is clear that we need all the help we can get. Like those fighting the Colorado fires, oil and gas producers, organizations, investors, corporations, etc. from all over the country need to work together to fight these regulations.
