That's a lot of reading and responding! The Huerfano Local Government Designee to the COGCC (LGD), John Galusha, can, by the COGCC rules, ask the COGCC for a 10 day extension if he were so convinced ... so far we have not succeeded with that, but maybe you would have more success!
The LGD is, according to the Governor's task force and the DNR, a key link between the public and the Oil and Gas Commission:

"One of the COGCC initiatives that task force members welcomed is the local government designee (LGD). While they won’t have any enforcement responsibility, the local designees can bring issues of concern directly to the COGCC. 'The LGD is the person who takes the requests, concerns and comments of local citizens to the attention of the COGCC. They answer to their local government board or commission, so the position is not merely a figurehead,” says King. 'The LGD is the key to a robust process for us.''" (Mike King is the Executive Director of the Colorado Department of Natural Resources, under which the COGCC functions.)
Huerfano County LGD is John Galusha and his contact information is on the Huerfano County website: http://www.huerfano.us/County_Administrator.html
