Description

A Yes vote would require all oil and gas activity to be setback 2500 feet from residential housing, schools, and businesses.

A No vote would sustain the current 1000 foot barrier.

Official Text:

Shall there be a change to the Colorado Revised Statutes concerning a statewide minimum distance requirement for new oil and gas development, and, in connection therewith, changing existing distance requirements to require that any new oil and gas development be located at least 2,500 feet from any structure intended for human occupancy and any other area designated by the measure, the state, or a local government and authorizing the state or a local government to increase the minimum distance requirement?
