Local Drilling Rules

This photo taken on Thursday, Jan. 18, 2012, shows a rig drilling for oil near a subdivision near Frederick, Colo. Oil and gas drilling in Colorado is no longer confined to the state’s most rural areas. Energy companies are moving to drill in populous Front Range communities prompting local planners to suggest regulations that energy companies complaints far exceed county authority. Politicians from both parties are calling for legislation clarifying that locals can’t set their own rules when it comes to drilling.(AP Photo/Ed Andrieski)
