Arkansas team engages with policymakers for Capitol Day
Arkasas meets with policymakers

Forty Arkansas natural gas industry leaders engaged in the legislative process at a Capitol Day in Little Rock. Black Hills Energy ambassadors and state leaders were joined by representatives from Summit Utilities and Arkansas Oklahoma Gas.

The natural gas day included hearing from a newly elected representative and an energy advisor for Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders; observing a Senate legislative committee meeting regarding net metering; touring the capitol building; and interacting with state government officials at a fried chicken lunch.

The Capitol Day visit came at a good time as Black Hills Energy was leading the effort to overhaul the Arkansas 811 law to address enhanced enforcement, ticketing and related safety measures.
