Santa Fe County anticipates a first draft of a new ordinance concerning oil and gas extraction within 60 days and an Area plan for the Galisteo Basin in late September.  Once the draft is complete, it will be available for public comment and then dates will be set for at least two public hearings.

Lists of individuals/organizations met with during public outreach, copies of sign-in sheets and minutes of meetings with community stakeholders and other groups are available for review at www.santafecountynm.gov/oilandgas.  Documents being reviewed by County staff and the consultant team (www.ourplanningworks.com/santafe/SantaFeDataLog%207.10.08.pdf) during this process are available for public review in the County legal office.  Documents on the list that are not available in the County legal office can be obtained from Planning Works via public records request (click here).
