​Sweeping legislative and regulatory changes between 2018 and 2022 have added almost $500 million in new, annual costs to doing business in Colorado for oil and natural gas companies.

They do not include new operational costs for which no analysis was conducted, and it does not account for rule changes where no associated economic analysis or cost-benefit analysis were performed. With that in mind, the total is a conservative number with additional, annual operational costs potentially being much higher.
