Though the board, which oversees development of the mineral-rich Overlhrust Belt in (mm G3?3Ei0 fD I s f CM) Vi the Chalk Creek area, has 'not taken any action on changing the county's code, most of its members mem-bers believe that the state's regulations regu-lations on wells are enough, said county planner Mirinda Gibbons. Summit County Attorney Robert Adkins brought the issue to the commission's attention in October when he discovered the rule that the county considers oil and gas wells conditional iises. Adkins said he believed the designation des-ignation was a disincentive for oil and gas companies to drill wells in Summit County. Industry representatives are also looking into the code's regu lation of drilling. Larry Williams, an attorney who represents several people involved in the oil and gas industry, indus-try, said he believes at least two county commissioners never intended to designate oil and gas wells as conditional uses. "'Hie county needs , to work with the industry." Williams said, adding that, in amending the code, commissioners need to heed somd statutes of the Utah Code. 1 Williams said there are "great concerns'? on the part of the industry. Gibbons said after hearing Adkins' concerns as well as some input from planning commissioners, commission-ers, planners proposed that the county require a staff-level review for exploratory wells and maintain production wells as conditional uses. But that was not enough fir planning commissioners, wtjo told Gibbons they wanted drilling to be an allowed use. meaning zero restrictions in addition to those required by tle state. While she- says that industry representatives tell the county that it is Summit County's onerous oner-ous regulations that keep thei from tapping the Overthrust Belt. Gibbons said she" believas that high land prices are equalty a factor. ; , J In order for the county to change its code to eliminate the restrictions, it would need t) hold public hearings, and approve the change via its board of commissioners. Gibbons said tne county won i nicety go aow; that road until March.
