Colorado Rising

Is there a leaking well near your kid's school? 🏫

Old, low-producing marginal wells are scattered across Colorado's Front Range, often right next to homes, schools, and playgrounds. They leak. They contaminate soil and groundwater. And most people never give them a second thought.

Join us this Thursday, June 4 at 5:00pm to learn what we can do about these overlooked wells near Colorado schools.

🚨 The ECMC just dropped the biggest single-day enforcement action against oil and gas operators in over a decade: 157 Notices of Alleged Violation, nearly double the previous record set in 2018. We're talking no proof of insurance, no license to operate, and no contributions to the fund meant to clean up their own industry's mess. 43 operators checked all three boxes at once.

Operators could face penalties approaching $900,000 each, but there’s a catch. Visit https://corfc.org/news/ for the blog post where we break it all down. 👆
