(ND Ag Connection) – Lt. Gov. Brent Sanford visited Dickinson last week to talk with energy producers at the American Petroleum Institute’s monthly meeting.

Sanford also held a Q&A session with the attendees to discuss the impact and importance of U.S. energy independence and North Dakota’s role in ensuring its oil and gas industry is driven by innovation not regulation.

Sanford then met with Central Power Electrical Cooperative members to discuss state and federal policies as well as the administration’s all-of-the-above energy approach.
