The Oil & Gas Caucus (OGC) of the ECOS Land & Materials Committee (formerly the Shale Gas Caucus) promotes coordination and best practices on matters including produced water, methane emissions, and alternative compliance pathways.
Through the OGC, ECOS brings in broad-based expertise to convene a series of informative briefings for state environmental agency leaders spotlighting current research, regulatory initiatives, and other activities around the nation. The project also has entailed the convening of roundtables with U.S. EPA and the development of a best practices database and a white paper.
