Western Energy Alliance (WEA)
Background
The Western Energy Alliance (WEA) represents over 300 member companies “engaged in all aspects of environmentally responsible exploration and production (E&P) of oil and natural gas in the West,” according to its website. It is located in Denver, Colorado.1“About the Alliance,” Western Energy Alliance. Archived August 4, 2020. Archive URL: http://archive.vn/YSRHO
WEA was founded in 1974 as the Independent Petroleum Association of Mountain States (IPAMS). It changed its name to Western Energy Alliance in 2010. Then-executive director Marc W. Smith told Leslie Haines of Oil and Gas Investor that the new name “better reflects who we are.” Oil and Gas Investor paraphrased Smith as suggesting “some anti-drilling interests in the region wrongfully assumed the old name implied that members were actually willing to drill on mountain tops.”2“Why IPAMS was renamed Western Energy Alliance,” HartEnergy, July 12, 2010. Archived August 19, 2020. Archive URL: https://archive.vn/Zurho
According to an archived version of its website, WEA’s advertised services included:3“About Us,” Western Energy Alliance. Archived June 1, 2012. Archive URL: https://archive.vn/aTxnb
- “Comprehensive representation in Washington and across the West focusing on: access to government lands for exploration and production, federal agency permitting, air and water quality, reform of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and Endangered Species Act (ESA), wildlife conservation, health and safety, taxation, and other issues.”
- “Established relationships with lawmakers and their staffs is fostered by regular trips to Washington, D.C. to meet with Congress and the Administration.”
- “Policymakers view Western Energy Alliance as a valuable resource on all issues related to oil and natural gas development in the Intermountain West.”
- “Western Energy Alliance Speaker Series luncheons, frequent symposia, workshops, and conferences focus on regional, national, and global outlooks, marketing, transportation, technology, and other current issues.”
- “Western Energy Alliance publishes the highly regarded Wildcatter Weekly, an executive summary of the week’s events impacting natural gas and oil producers in the Intermountain West.”
- “Western Energy Alliance provides networking opportunities with others conducting business in the same areas. Service companies, financial institutions, accounting and law firms, and E & P companies are all part of the Intermountain West petroleum community.”
WEA has historically lobbied against restrictions on the oil and gas industry,4Eric Lipton and Hiroko Tabuchi. ”Driven by Trump Policy Changes, Fracking Booms on Public Lands,” The New York Times, October 27, 2018. Archived September 1, 2020. Archive URL: https://archive.vn/ZuXWa including environmental protections for the greater sage grouse, which would prevent the expansion of oil and gas development on federal lands. WEA has suggested that “Oil and natural gas provide a net benefit to the environment,” while it praised former President Donald Trump’s decision to withdraw the US from the Paris Climate Agreement, saying it “conflicted with the administration’s plans to increase American development of the energy that actually powers the country.”5Kathleen Sgamma. “Good News from Paris,” Western Energy Alliance, June 2, 2017.

Western Wire faced controversy when EarthRights International said its General Counsel Marco Simons, who was representing Colorado communities in climate change litigation against Exxon at the time, was contacted by two “Exxon-sponsored consultants posing as journalists.” Audio and a transcript of that call is available at the EarthRights website.13“Exxon Sends Undisclosed Agents to Question Opposing Counsel About Colorado Climate Litigation,” EarthRights International, January 15, 2019. Archived August 19, 2020. Audio .mp3 and .pdf transcript on file at DeSmog. Archive URL: https://archive.vn/s4XkD
During that call, Michael Sandoval of FTI Consulting/Western Wire responded to Simons’ questions. A section of that transcript below, with Michael Sandoval of FTI Consulting/Western Wire, Marco Simons of EarthRights, and Matt Dempsey of FTI Consulting/Western Wire:
Marco Simons: Before we get started, I, I wonder, was wondering if I could
get a little more information about Western Wire?Sandoval: Sure.
Simons: So, my understanding is that Western Wire is a project of the Western
Energy Association, um –Michael Sandoval: Yeah, Western Energy Alliance, yeah.
Simons: The Western Energy Alliance, right. Um, and it’s staffed by, primarily by staff of FTI Consulting, um –
Sandoval: Yeah.
Simons: Although one of the, one of the staff members is, is from WEA itself. Um, and,
so, presumably that’s, that’s FTI Consulting on a contract to, under a contract to
Western Energy Alliance, is that right?Sandoval: Yes.
Simons: And correct me if I’m wrong, but Western Energy Alliance includes Exxon as
one of its members, is, is that, is that right?Sandoval: I don’t know.
Simons: You don’t –
Sandoval: I’m not privy to the membership of, of the Western Energy Alliance.
Simons: Okay. Well, it does include an executive from Exxon on its board, right?
Sandoval: Yeah.
Simons: So, I’m just assuming that Exxon’s one of its members. I guess I’m just concerned from a conflicts perspective that if you’re being funded by an organization that you don’t know their members, how do you, I guess, ensure, you know, lack of conflicts from a journalistic integrity point of view?
Sandoval: My colleague Matt Dempsey’s here, as well, and can answer some questions.
Simons: Sure.
Matt Dempsey, FTI Consulting/Western Wire: I just walked in the door. It sounds like you’re asking some questions about the membership of the Alliance. Is this being done in – are you asking questions as a lawyer as part of representing Boulder? Or is this for your own personal information? We’re – we’re ready to proceed on an interview about the case, but if this is something else, we need to know that now.
Simons: I – I’m just trying to figure out whether, uh – obviously if you’re representatives of Exxon in any fashion, I can’t talk to you, um, because, you know, Exxon is represented by counsel in the litigation.
Western Wire editor Aaron Johnson released a response, saying “We have been transparent and forthright about Western Wire’s pro-industry perspective.” He wrote at the Western Wire website: “Recently, Washington D.C. lawyers representing the City of Boulder contested the legitimacy of the news outlet. They published a blog post and that piece was picked up by Climate Liability News. The assertions made by these two entities, which are not transparent with their own funders, are misleading.” (Climate Liability News reporting can be viewed here).14Aaron Johnson. “Editor’s Note,” Western Wire, January 26, 2019.

Stance on Climate Change
2020
According to the WEA’s website:16“Regulatory,” Western Energy Alliance. Archived August 4, 2020.
“Oil and natural gas provide a net benefit to the environment. Countries with greater access to reliable, affordable energy not only have higher standards of living, but also cleaner environments and healthier populations. Increased use of natural gas electricity generation leads to lower levels of air pollution and offers a tangible solution for climate change. Fuel switching to natural gas in the electricity sector is the number one reason the United States has reduced greenhouse gas emissions more than any other country since 2005.”

Sgamma wrote at the Western Energy Alliance‘s blog, praising President Donald Trump’s decision to withdraw from the Paris Climate Agreement:17Kathleen Sgamma. “Good News from Paris,” Western Energy Alliance, June 2, 2017. Archived September 1, 2020. Archive URL: https://archive.vn/tGIG7
“Western Energy Alliance applauds President Trump’s decision to withdraw from the Paris climate accord. The unratified treaty conflicted with the administration’s plans to increase American development of the energy that actually powers the country […].”
“At a time like this, I like to remember how much more effective the oil and natural gas industry is at providing a real solution to climate change than any international treaty such as Paris or Kyoto; government policy like a carbon tax or cap-and-trade; or renewable subsidy.
“Our industry is responsible for 62% of the greenhouse gas emissions reductions in the electricity sector, compared to just 38% for wind, solar and other non-carbon generation, according to the Energy Information Administration.
“Our industry is the number one reason the United States leads the world in reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
“That’s right. The United States provides actual leadership on climate change by reducing more greenhouse gases than any other developed country. Leadership is not worrying about upsetting other countries because we pull out of an agreement that would hamstring our economy and possibly (or not) avoid a mere 0.2 degrees C of warming by 2100.
“Climate alarmists and others looking to fundamentally reorient society don’t like to admit it, but the oil and natural gas industry has done more to reduce greenhouse gas emissions than any government climate change policy, which is why our success is ignored by most of the media and mainstream environmental groups. The orthodoxy is about government control of the economy in the guise of the environment. We provide the exact opposite solution–the private sector operating in a free market, delivering an environmental and energy benefit at the lowest price. “

March 7, 2017
WEA President Kathleen Sgamma tweeted an article by Chris Horner for the Competitive Enterprise Institute, pushing for Trump to follow through on withdrawal from the Paris Climate Treaty:
January 30, 2013
WEA’s then-vice president of government and public affairs Katherine Sgamma appeared in an interview with E&E News where she suggested natural gas was the primary reason for reductions in greenhouse gas emissions in the US:18“Western Energy Alliance’s Sgamma discusses future of Interior’s fracking rule,” E&E News, January 30, 2013. Archived August 19, 2020. Archive URL: https://archive.vn/Hcx3y
Monica Trauzzi: “We’re heard strong indicators from both the President and inside Congress that there will be a focus on addressing climate change over the next four years. How should the administrative square those goals with the goals that it has to expand federal exploration and development?”
Katherine Sgamma: “Well, I think if you look at natural gas in particular, the reason that the United States has significantly reduced greenhouse gas emissions on path towards those Kyoto goals of 1990 emissions rates, and it’s because of natural gas, because we have switched over a considerable portion of our electricity generation from coal to natural gas. And so we’re the only industrialized country that has seen significant drop in greenhouse gases, and it’s because of natural gas. So it’s definitely easy to square those two together, because the more natural gas we produce domestically, we can export it overseas, we can use it here at home, and it’s clean burning, and it reduces greenhouse gas emissions.”
June 4, 2013
WEA’s Katherine Sgamma has advocated for a “free-market approach” to global warming policy. She wrote at National Journal:19Kathleen Sgamma. “American IS Leading the Way,” National Journal, June 4, 2013. Archived June 15, 2013. Archive URL: https://archive.vn/mKLez
“Which parts of the world are leading the way on energy production and global-warming policy? Clearly the United States. Through technological innovation and private-sector investment, the US is threatening the energy dominance of OPEC and Russia, with all the associated positive geo-political implications. Along with the increased production comes job and economic growth; the oil and natural gas industry is responsible for one out of every five new private-sector jobs and contributes $1.1 trillion to U.S. GDP annually.
“We’re also leading on global warming policy. Because of abundant natural gas, the United States has increased natural gas electricity generation which has enabled us to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions to 1992 levels. No other industrialized countries have come close to meeting Kyoto-style GHG reductions targets, and we did it through thousands of market decisions, not top-down federal government fiat.
“That free-market approach has enabled the US to avoid the mistakes of Europe, where misguided “green” energy policies have caused more harm than good by saddling consumers and industry with high energy costs without delivering real environmental benefits. For example, Germany is actually increasing GHG emissions while, as Bjorn Lomborg reports, spending $110 billion for 37 hours of delay in global warming by the end of the century. Clearly that is a bad cost-benefit ratio that is harming German consumers and making its industry considerably less competitive.
“Luckily, America’s adversarial democracy enabled us to avoid making the same mistakes as Europe and other countries by avoiding signing onto the Kyoto treaty and adopting similar big government policies such as cap-and-trade. There are those on this blog who will lament that we’re falling behind other countries by not adopting more government imposed “investment” strategies in green energy. How many more Solyndras do we need before we convince everyone that that type of government policy is also misguided? There are plenty of examples overseas as well. Spain and Germany again come to mind, where taxpayer money has been wasted on non-sustainable subsidies to energy sources that can’t compete in the market, saddling consumers with high-priced energy and taxpayers with debt. We’re lucky that we have a strong democracy with a solid free-market tradition that has enabled us to avoid those same command-and-control policies that continue to fail. Other countries should follow.”
Funding
According to funding records at the Conserative Transparency project, from 2008 to 2009 the Western Energy Alliance recieved at least $81,000 in funding from the American Petroleum Institute while it was still operating under the name Independent Petroleum Association of Mountain States (IPAMS).20“Independent Petroleum Association of Mountain States,” Conservative Transparency.

In an interview in Washington, WEA president Kathleen Sgamma reportedly dismissed the idea of an energy transition.21David Gelles and Lisa Friedman. “There’s a Messaging Battle Right Now Over America’s Energy Future,” The New York Times, March 19, 2022. Archived July 7, 2022. Archive URL: https://archive.ph/hqhjy
“We can talk about this idealistic supposed future where there’s no oil, natural gas and coal,” Ms. Sgamma said. “But that’s not the reality.”
“So if we’re going to talk about a transition, let’s find something that we can transition to, because right now we don’t have a technology that can provide all of our needs 24-7. Flat out we don’t,” she said. “So just realistically, we’re going to be here through 2050 and many years after.”
March 9, 2021
The Guardian reported the Western Energy Alliance was behind a report Republicans including Liz Cheney were using to suggest Biden’s policies on oil and gas drilling would damage the economy. Records obtained by Documented and shared with Floodlight and Wyoming Public Media showed WEA had proposed a $114,000 publicly funded study.22Emily Holden. “Republicans’ new favorite study trashes Biden’s climate plans – but who’s behind it?” The Guardian, March 9, 2021. Archived March 9, 2021. Archive URL: https://archive.vn/QEYFC
In February 2020, WEA sought to help fund the study—but was unable to. It did provide $8,000 in founding to help publicize the report, according The Guardian.
“Now, the Western Energy Alliance is spending thousands more to amplify the warnings in an ad campaign against Biden’s climate policies,” The Guardian reported. “The numbers have been cited dozens of times in local and national newspapers, including in the New York Times in a reference to Wyoming officials’ projections.”
“The data has become core to Republican messaging opposing Biden’s climate plans even as critics suggest the study might exaggerate economic impacts by as much as 85%. The author even appeared at a meeting of the Congressional Western Caucus in February, alongside Cheney.”
WEA first approached the report’s author, Tim Considine, in mid 2019 to request a proposal about his research for state officials.23Emily Holden. “Republicans’ new favorite study trashes Biden’s climate plans – but who’s behind it?” The Guardian, March 9, 2021. Archived March 9, 2021. Archive URL: https://archive.vn/QEYFC
“Just wanted to let you know that I’m working with the Governor’s office about who will commission and pay for the analysis, so I’m making progress,” Sgamma emailed Considine, according to the records. The Guardian noted, “month earlier, Considine had shared his proposal with Sgamma and then offered to amend it based on her preferences if it would ‘help your fund raising [sic]’.”
Sgamma later defended the study and lack of disclosure of WEA’s involvement.24Emily Holden. “Republicans’ new favorite study trashes Biden’s climate plans – but who’s behind it?” The Guardian, March 9, 2021. Archived March 9, 2021. Archive URL: https://archive.vn/QEYFC
“The bottom line is we didn’t fund it, and that’s usually where the disclosure comes in,” Sgamma said.
The $114,000 cost for the Wyoming study was publicly funded through the Wyoming Energy Authority and Wyoming State Energy Program. It had been proposed by former lawmaker Eli Bebout. He is president of Nucor Oil and Gas and has received campaign contributions from industry.
July 2020
The New York Times reported that, shortly after President Trump’s inauguration, WEA’s Kathleen Sgamma reached out to the president’s transition team regarding requirements for methane release data.25Lisa Friedman. “New Emails Show How Energy Industry Moved Fast to Undo Curbs,” The New York Times, July 21, 2020. Archived August 5, 2020. Archive URL: https://archive.vn/AmgXX
“Looks like this will be easier than we thought,” David Kreutzer, an economist with the Heritage Foundation, who coordinated with the Environmental Protection Agency, wrote of cancelling methane reporting requirements on Feb. 10, 2017.26Lisa Friedman. “New Emails Show How Energy Industry Moved Fast to Undo Curbs,” The New York Times, July 21, 2020. Archived August 5, 2020. Archive URL: https://archive.vn/AmgXX
Three weeks later, the EPA officially withdrew the reporting requirement.27Lisa Friedman. “New Emails Show How Energy Industry Moved Fast to Undo Curbs,” The New York Times, July 21, 2020. Archived August 5, 2020. Archive URL: https://archive.vn/AmgXX
The email was part of a collection of correspondence and interviews made public by a lawsuit 15 states brought against the EPA over the regulation of methane.28Lisa Friedman. “New Emails Show How Energy Industry Moved Fast to Undo Curbs,” The New York Times, July 21, 2020.

The Western Energy Alliance bought a full-page ad in the New York Times in which 54 oil and natural gas industry executives “forcefully pushed back against months of claims that they are corrupt criminals who should be jailed” with regards to climate change.29“Open Letter to 2020 Presidential Candidates,” Western Energy Alliance. Archived March 15, 2020. Archive URL: https://archive.vn/k2iCo
“Contrary to the anti-oil and natural gas messages candidates are spreading to voters and the media on the campaign trail, the underlying statement from business leaders is that it ‘would be criminal not to produce oil and natural gas’,” the WEA’s press release reads.30“Execs’ Open Letter to 2020 Candidates Promotes Oil & Natural Gas,” Western Energy Alliance, February 24, 2020. Archived April 15, 2020. Archive URL: https://archive.is/vkqVH
“Sen. Sanders calls us criminal and Vice President Biden says he would put us in jail, but it would be criminal not to produce the life-sustaining energy that enables a healthy, safe and modern lifestyle,” said Kathleen Sgamma, president of Western Energy Alliance.
Several sources told DeSmog that WEA’s messaging indicates the industry is desperate to defend its public image.31Dana Drugmand. “Oil Execs, Anxious About Public Support, Claim Halting Fossil Fuel Production Would Be ‘Criminal’,” DeSmog, March 6, 2020.
“As a legal matter this claim is laughable so it’s better thought of as a PR stunt,” said Douglas Kysar, professor of law at Yale Law School. “The oil and gas industry seems to realize that its products are being recognized as deadly by growing portions of the world community and is trying to salvage their image with this ploy.”32Dana Drugmand. “Oil Execs, Anxious About Public Support, Claim Halting Fossil Fuel Production Would Be ‘Criminal’,” DeSmog, March 6, 2020.
“They can see their social license to operate slipping away, and they’re scrambling to hold on as long as they can. They must be scared,” added Geoffrey Supran, a Harvard research associate who studies the history of fossil fuel disinformation. “Propaganda campaigns like this ad are the flagging fossil fuel industry’s predictable response.”33Dana Drugmand. “Oil Execs, Anxious About Public Support, Claim Halting Fossil Fuel Production Would Be ‘Criminal’,” DeSmog, March 6, 2020.

WEA President Kathleen Sgamma testified before the House Committee on Natural Resources, Subcommittee on Energy and Mineral Resources in a hearing titled “Fossil Fuel Development: Protecting Taxpayers and Eliminating Individual Giveaways.”34“Testimony Before the House Committee on Natural Resources, Subcommittee on Energy and Mineral Resources” (PDF), House Committee on Natural Resources, September 24, 2019. Archived .pdf on file at DeSmog.
“Because the consumption of our products indeed does generate greenhouse gases, we’re vilified, yet our products provide overwhelming benefits that outweigh the impact,” Sgamma’s testimony reads. She also criticized proposed legislation to limit industry on federal lands as “duplicative regulatory red tape.”35“Testimony Before the House Committee on Natural Resources, Subcommittee on Energy and Mineral Resources” (PDF), House Committee on Natural Resources, September 24, 2019. Archived .pdf on file at DeSmog.
“Why would Congress want to give BLM redundant powers to regulate air quality that is already granted to EPA and the states through the Clean Air Act?” She asked. “EPA rules are applicable on public lands, of course, so why the inefficient duplication? The answer can only be that the bill is following the example of the Obama Administration in doing an end-run around the Clean Air Act and its processes for regulating existing sources properly.”
She also criticized a bonding bill that would address the cleanup of orphan wells by the oil industry claiming that “If bond levels are raised too high, as they are in the bill, it ties up significant amounts of capital in an unproductive capacity, adding another cost that, in combination with all the other costs of operating on federal lands, leads to less production.”
On a bill regarding royalties, she claimed “Raising royalty rates on federal lands will make them even less competitive with adjacent non-federal lands because the federal government, through acts of Congress and Executive Branch policies, has already determined that it would rather extract more in regulatory costs than it can garner in direct royalty revenue.”

WEA’s Western Wire published an interview with Roger Pielke, Jr. on “Climate Funding.”
“If we’re worried about the accumulating amount of CO2 in the atmosphere, then for all the politics, for all the noise, for all the heat, it is ultimately a technology problem,” Pielke told the Western Wire. “The problem is, that the climate issue has for 20 years been owned, taken over, by some of the most far-left activists, who have the leading voices on the issue,” Pielke said.36Elena Connolly. “Massive Climate Funding By Wealthy Foundations Failed To Sway Public Opinion,” Western Wire, June 7, 2018.

The New York Times outlined the role that industry lobbyists supporting groups including the Western Energy Alliance and Independent Petroleum Association of America (IPAA) had played in working with the Interior Department under the Trump administration to expand fracking and drilling on public lands. [4]
“A successful push by industry lobbyists has changed internal policies that govern how frequently new federal leases are offered, how quickly drilling permits are approved and how much the companies pay in royalties on oil and gas that they extract from the federal lands. The administration, at the industry’s request, also cut the time the public has to challenge federal land sales.” [4]
“The Interior Department is also moving to ease restrictions that had limited access to certain critical wildlife habitats, such as the mating grounds used by the sage grouse,” The New York Times reported. Protections for the sage grouse have long been opposed by the oil and gas industry, as it prevented industry expansion into many habitat areas. [4]
A July 2017 email from WEA’s president, Kathleen M. Sgamma, argued some protections for the sage grouse were “overly expansive and burdensome.” She added: “These provisions are contrary to the president’s executive order” to promote energy independence. [4]
Documents and emails showed the influence of groups like the Western Energy Alliance. “Yesterday afternoon we, BLM & Solicitor’s Office, had a preliminary discussion on possible settlement conditions with the Western Energy Alliance,” said one February 2017 email from Kathleen Benedetto, a senior advisor at the Bureau of Land Management put in place by Ryan Zinke. [4]
The New York Times noted that “The outcome of that meeting became public this year” when a “instruction memorandum” was sent out to field offices directing them to eliminate “unnecessary impediments and burdens” to leasing more federal land to oil and gas expansion. [4]
August 11, 2016
WEA filed a lawsuit in the federal district court for the District of New Mexico asking for the US Bureau of Land Management (BLM) to be compelled to lease federal lands for oil and gas exploration. In a blog post on the action, WEA blamed the “Keep-It-in-the-Ground movement” for the slowing of leasing.37Kathleen Sgamma. “Who Needs Keep-It-in-the-Ground? BLM’s Already Doing So,” Western Energy Alliance, August 11, 2016. Archived August 5, 2020. Archive URL: https://archive.vn/sbVeQ
“The Keep-It-in-the-Ground movement is yelling and screaming to coerce BLM into violating the law so that this bureaucratic chokehold becomes a full policy stop. They’ve seen how the Obama Administration is willing to use its pen and phone to rule by fiat and impose policy that flouts Congressional mandate. The time is now for industry to stand up and demand that BLM and the Interior Department follow existing law passed by the representatives of the People.
For that reason, Western Energy Alliance today filed a lawsuit challenging the failure to hold quarterly lease sales to try to compel BLM to do what’s already required by law,” WEA wrote at its blog.38Kathleen Sgamma. “Who Needs Keep-It-in-the-Ground?

WEA was among organizations represented in comments The Independent Petroleum Association of America (IPAA) submitted to the EPA fighting against tightening air quality standards for ozone.39“Attention: National Ambient Air Quality Standards for Ozone Docket ID No. OAR–2008–0699” (PDF), IPAA, March 17, 2015. Retrieved from EnergyInDepth.org. Archived .pdf on file at DeSmog.
“Assessing the need for a revised Ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standard (Ozone NAAQS) hinges on the quality of the health analysis to determine the ambient concentrations of ozone that create adverse effects and on the implications of control strategies to meet the Ozone NAAQS. IPAA’s analysis of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) material on its proposed revisions to the Ozone NAAQS concludes that EPA fails to justify any change in the current NAAQS,” the comments read. “While EPA has a responsibility to set an Ozone NAAQS at a level to protect public health, it should not act in a manner that imposes unnecessary costs on American citizens.”
The complaint references material produced by IPAA’s “Energy In Depth” PR project as evidence. IPAA claims EID “found considerable flaws in the arguments EPA makes to justify the newly proposed NAAQS options.” The document suggests in conclusion that “EPA should retain the current Ozone NAAQS because it would be the most cost effective choice for the same health benefits.40“Attention: National Ambient Air Quality Standards for Ozone Docket ID No. OAR–2008–0699” (PDF), IPAA, March 17, 2015.

WEA and IPAA, represented by the law firm Baker & Hostetler LLP, filed a lawsuit claiming new regulations by the Interior Department’s Bureau of Land Management (BLM) were based on “unsubstantiated concerns,” Bloomberg reported. The regulations would require drillers on federal land to reveal the chemicals they use, meet construction standards for wells and safely dispose of contaminated water.41Jim Polson, Mark Drajem and Andrew Harris. “Oil Industry Meets First Federal Fracking Rules With a Lawsuit,” Bloomberg, March 20, 2015. Archived August 19, 2020. Archive URL: https://archive.vn/p0bqI
According to the Center for Western Priorities, a conservation and advocacy organization, WEA filed its lawsuit one hour after BLM submitted its final rule.42Greg Zimmerman. “OIL AND GAS LOBBY BRAGS ABOUT LITIGIOUS PLAYBOOK, DESPITE DOWNTICK IN ENERGY REGULATIONS DURING THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION,” Center for Western Priorities, May 12, 2015.

Lobbyist Richard Berman spoke at the Western Energy Alliance’s Annual Meeting in a presentation titled “Big Green Radicals: Exposing Environmental Groups” (PDF), as reported by the New York Times, who was provided a copy of the meeting agenda and a recording of the meeting from a confidential executive who had attended.43Eric Lipton. “Hard-Nosed Advice From Veteran Lobbyist: ‘Win Ugly or Lose Pretty’,” The New York Times, October 30, 2014. Archived September 1, 2020. Archived .pdf of presentation on file at DeSmog. Archive URL: https://archive.vn/Pe20Q
“You can either win ugly or lose pretty,” Berman said. “Think of this as an endless war. … And you have to budget for it.”
“I get up every morning and I try to figure out how to screw with the labor unions — that’s my offense,” Berman also said in his speech to the Western Energy Alliance. “I am just trying to figure out how I am going to reduce their brand.”44Eric Lipton. “Hard-Nosed Advice From Veteran Lobbyist: ‘Win Ugly or Lose Pretty’,” The New York Times, October 30, 2014. Archived September 1, 2020. Archived .pdf of presentation on file at DeSmog. Archive URL: https://archive.vn/Pe20Q
Among Berman’s suggestions was to “Use humor to minimize or marginalize the people on the other side.”
During his speech, Berman also outlined how he could route money from oil and gas industry executives to obscure the sources in his campaigns:
“People always ask me one question all the time: ‘How do I know that I won’t be found out as a supporter of what you’re doing?’ ” Mr. Berman told the crowd. “We run all of this stuff through nonprofit organizations that are insulated from having to disclose donors. There is total anonymity. People don’t know who supports us.”45Eric Lipton. “Hard-Nosed Advice From Veteran Lobbyist: ‘Win Ugly or Lose Pretty’,” The New York Times, October 30, 2014.

1998
According to the IPAMS annual report, in addition to various activities lobbying on federal lands issues and the environment, the group also produced “Earth science and educational videos aimed at elementary school children.”46“IPAMS 1998 Annual Report,” IPAMS. Archived June 11, 2000. Archive URL: https://archive.vn/q8mhH
Under their list of PR campaigns, they also ran a “Petro Pros” campaign to distribute presentations and kits to elementary school children. It included the following description:
“Through this program, IPAMS volunteers make one-hour presentations – provided by IPAMS – to elementary, middle and high school classrooms. The goal is to enlighten students and teachers of the importance of petrochemicals in their lives. Three teaching } kits~ have been assembled thus far, and Cherry Creek School District officials have already expressed interest.”
Some other selected activities listed for that year included:47“IPAMS 1998 Annual Report,” IPAMS. Archived June 11, 2000. Archive URL: https://archive.vn/q8mhH
- “IPAMS lobbied Congress to implement royalty reduction (eco-credits) for voluntary mitigation.”
- “IPAMS joined forces with an industry coalition to prevent the listing of the Black-tailed Prairie Dog.”
- “IPAMS coordinated an effort to block Interior’s wilderness re-inventories in Utah and Colorado.”
- “IPAMS worked to limit EPA involvement in oil and gas operations and sent a letter to EPA’s Carol Browner requesting that the EPA not duplicate state authority to regulate oil and gas operations.”
- “In October IPAMS successfully petitioned the EPA not to regulate fracing [sic] under the UIC program.”
- “IPAMS organized an Emissions Trading Conference to explore the possibility of using voluntary market forces to reduce air quality concerns.”
