Santa Fe Group Creates Citizens' Energy Board

liberty.jpg 

A group of citizen’s in Santa Fe, New Mexico is petitioning the Board of County Commissioners to establish a Citizens’ Energy Board to guide the Commission on energy matters that come before it. The group began holding meetings in response to a plan by Houston-based Tecton Energy to begin drilling for oil and gas in the Galisteo Basin just south of Santa Fe.

The move by Tecton had already prompted formation of an activist group called “Drilling Santa Fe”, which has now formed an alliance with more than sixty other organizations to oppose drilling in the region. The Citizen’s Energy board is an outgrowth of that alliance that seeks to ensure that the concerns of citizens are well represented in the drilling debate, as well as in all energy matters effecting County residents, going forward.
