Item Open Access Mountains to Plains energy by design: collaborative conservation to achieve wildlife and oil and gas development goals(Colorado State University. Libraries, 2013-09-24) Megan Kram, speakerMegan will present an example of collaborative planning for oil and gas development in CSU's backyard, the Mountains to Plains Energy by Design project. Based on The Nature Conservancy's Development by Design methodology, this project identifies priority biological, cultural, scenic, and recreational resource values within 60,000 acres in northeastern Colorado and recommends strategies to avoid, minimize, and offset the potential impacts of oil and gas development to these values. It provides an example of collaborative energy planning between federal, state, and local governments, a mineral owner (Colorado State Land Board, SLB), and nonprofit organizations.
