The final  DNV-GL report identifying risks and associated mitigation measures for each risk was presented to City Council by representatives of DNV GL USA (DNV-GL) at the February 19, 2019, Study Session to present the final report.  DNV-GL's powerpoint can be viewed here.

In October 2018, Broomfield contracted with DNV GL USA (DNV-GL) to conduct a risk assessment of Extraction’s well sites:

  • To identify risks and mitigation measures associated with those risks;

  • To identify risks associated with recent oil and gas incidents in other parts of Colorado and any additional mitigation measures;

  • To own a professional third party risk assessment associated with a new oil and gas development to use further in policy efforts; and

  • To identify other mitigation measures that should be added to Broomfield’s regulations.

DNV-GL is a global quality assurance and risk management company.  The agreement with DNV-GL authorized them to conduct a hazard identification (HAZID) process for the Extraction oil and gas well sites.    View the Study Session memo, including the risk assessment report here.
