Colorado Supreme Court To Hear Oil & Gas Drilling Case
DENVER (CBS4)- The highest court in the state could change the way oil and gas drilling operates in Colorado.
The Colorado Supreme Court will take up a dispute over how much weight should be given to health and environmental concerns when deciding where to drill for oil and gas.
It's an appeal on a case from 2013 which wanted state regulators to require energy companies to show how they would not harm the environment or health.
A lower court agreed that regulators didn't have the authority but an appeals court disagreed.
