“SURVEY 501” Report • N = 501 participants

BACKGROUND. Design and surveying for this project was conducted by members of the Eldorado Gas & Oil Team (EGOT!). Those surveyed were required only to be Santa Fe County residents of voting age. The majority of surveying was done of those passing through or in public areas, including the Santa Fe Community Days and the Eldorado Community 4th of July picnic. The survey form was completely anonymous, and all processed forms are available for appropriate public inspection.

CAUTION: The results of this survey MUST NOT be generalized beyond the group of 501 participants. It is not to be construed as representing opinions beyond the extent of the actual surveyed individuals, nor should decision-making assumptions for any group be extracted from these results.

1. Do you approve of Tecton Energy’s plan to drill exploratory wells in Santa Fe County/the Galisteo Basin?
Yes – 42 8.4%
No – 415 82.8%
Uncertain – 44 8.8%

These numbers indicate that approximately only 1 in 10 of the 50 residents surveyed approve of the plan for the exploratory drilling for gas and oil in Santa Fe County. The group of 415 participants (82.8%) who do not approve of drilling are the vast majority of the surveyed group and therefore should not be considered an “extreme faction” by planners.
