KUNC

The state agency in charge of regulating oil and gas drilling has hired two additional employees to help improve the lines of communication with cities and counties. 

State leaders say the goal is to better respond to concerns about hydraulic fracturing and other issues. KUNC’s state capitol reporter Bente Birkeland has more.

Bente Birkeland has been reporting on state legislative issues for KUNC and Rocky Mountain Community Radio since 2006. Originally, from Minnesota, Bente likes to hike and ski in her spare time. She keeps track of state politics throughout the year but is especially busy during the annual legislative session from January through early May.
