Abstract: The Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission is directed to use a risk-based strategy to inspect oil and gas facilities. The Commissions risk-based strategy prioritizes the phases of oil and gas operations that are most likely to experience spills, excess emissions, and other types of violations for inspections. The purposes of a risk-based inspection strategy are to protect public health, minimize environmental contamination, detect spills before they worsen, and strengthen the publics trust in the State of Colorados oversight of the oil and gas industry.
