This report discusses the challenges and requirements of natural resource infrastructure in Colorado, focusing on the oil and gas sector. It critiques Columbia's gas quality specification proposal, arguing that the 1.25% CO2 restriction is overly stringent and could disrupt the interstate natural gas pipeline system. The document highlights various infrastructure needs extending beyond natural gas, including crude oil, natural gas liquids, CO2 supply, and electricity. Emphasis is placed on the importance of robust infrastructure for enhanced oil recovery and carbon sequestration initiatives to support growth in the region.

2. A meaningful piece of prose Western protests Columbias proposal to revise its gas quality specifications to include a CO2 specification of 1.25%. This proposed specification is overly restrictive and will balkanize the interstate natural gas pipeline grid by creating an island of disparity in a sea of reasonableness.
