Oil & Gas 101
How does hydraulic fracturing actually work? What happens to air quality and methane emissions? What rights do communities, landowners, and mineral owners have?
Join Erie Together for an evening of information and Q&A with experts who work with oil and gas from different perspectives. We'll start with a short overview of how hydraulic fracturing works, then hear from our panel about air quality and emissions, environmental impacts, oil and gas operations, mineral rights, and the laws governing development.
Most importantly, we'll leave plenty of time for residents to ask questions.

Oil & Gas Liaison, Colorado Air Pollution Division
Dan Zimmerle
Director, Methane Emissions Program / METEC, Colorado State University
Dr. Joseph Ryan
Professor of Civil, Environmental and Architectural Engineering
