 34th Annual Graham Regional Luncheon
On December 8, 2011 at the Graham Country Club, the Alliance hosted the 34th Annual Graham Regional Luncheon. Alliance Vice Chairman Townes Pressler (left) presented State Senator Steve Ogden with the 2011 Outstanding Legislator award. Ogden has served as Chairman of the Senate Finance Committee during a very difficult time. Through his leadership, the State was able to pass a balanced budget without increasing taxes even though the State faced some $20 billion in deficits.
"As part of ongoing statewide educational efforts, several non-profit and trade associations have come together to provide factual information about oil and gas operations to the public, local leaders, and elected officials. The group's publication, "Oil and Gas in Texas: A Joint Association Education Message," focuses on oil and gas issues including regulations, hydraulic fracturing, water, air, waste, pipeline safety, and statewide economic impact of the oil and gas industry. With this publication, the oil and gas industry will continue to work closely with communities and state and local officials to raise awareness about operations and to share information about the extensive precautions taken to maintain the safety of workers, local communities, and the environment.
Participating organizations include the Texas Oil & Gas Association, the Texas Independent Producers and Royalty Owners Association, the Texas Alliance of Energy Producers, the Permian Basin Petroleum Association, the Panhandle Producers and Royalty Owners Association, the Texas Pipeline Association, the Foundation for Energy Education, and the American Royalty Council."
