"Managing the Risks of Unconventional Oil and Gas Development: What Local Communities Can Learn from Others' Experiences" (2015), Lincoln Institute of Land Policy.
The report is intended to serve as a non partisan resource for county and municipal officials in communities around the country who have oil and gas development in their jurisdictions -- or who may soon have it. The report highlights regulatory, non-regulatory, and fiscal tools that may be available to local officials and decision makers to assess, manage, and minimize the impacts and risks associated with oil and gas development.
