Page 2 of 2
Dear Secretary Jewell:
We write to provide our input regarding the Bureau of Land Management’s (BLM) recently re-proposed rule titled “Oil and Gas; Hydraulic Fracturing on Federal and Indian Lands,” which was published in the Federal Register on 24 May 2013.
At the annual meeting of the Western Governors’ Association held in Park City in June 2013, the Western Governors adopted a policy resolution that stated, in part:
Western Governors recognize that the states, territories, and flag islands have effectively regulated the practice of hydraulic fracturing and redundant federal regulation is not required.
