OK. I KNOW this a.g. opinion request stems from Game and Fish protectiveness of its gas riches. Here, Sen. Steve Farris asks a pointed question: What is it about the messy business of oil and gas drilling that is in harmony with the agency’s fiercely defended constitutional autonomy to protect wildlife? And does a gas company lease of public land for private use make it taxable?
Answer: Good questions. More development of the issues will be required. I think we can expect some development come January.
