"We would not have made the $40,000 investment in solar."
As Colorado job hunters of every age and description know all too well, landing a satisfying, well-paying gig out here is a tall task. This challenge is confirmed by data. In an early 2025 edition of the Colorado Business Review, the University of Colorado Boulder’s Leeds College of Business estimated 36,700 new jobs would be created in the state last year. By the time the mid-year issue of the CBR arrived, however, the predicted total had been revised down to 22,200. According to the state Department of Labor and Employment, Colorado ended the year with around 23,000 new jobs, but with the lowest monthly labor force participation rate since October 2020.

For TruSox owner Dave Banning, the idea seemed simple: donate socks and gloves his company could not sell to people who needed them. Instead, he says, Colorado tax rules made giving the merchandise away more expensive than throwing it in the trash. The experience became one example of the regulatory frustrations that eventually prompted him to move his company’s Colorado operations to Kentucky.

Go-To Guide: The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency approved Colorado’s request to administer the federal Class VI underground injection control (UIC) program for carbon dioxide storage wells. Beginning Nov. 12, 2026, the Colorado Energy and Carbon Management Commission (ECMC) will be the primary permitting and enforcement authority for Class VI wells in Colorado, except on Indian lands. Carbon capture and storage project developers and industrial facilities considering carbon capture as a compliance or decarbonization strategy should account for ECMC’s expanded Class VI review process, public participation, financial assurance, monitoring, and long-term closure obligations during project planning. Colorado Takes the Lead on Class VI Permitting On Oct. 13, 2026, the EPA published its final rule (91 Fed. Reg. 64780) approving Colorado’s application for primary enforcement responsibility, or “primacy,” over Class VI injection wells under the Safe Drinking Water Act. Class VI wells inject carbon dioxide into deep underground formations for permanent geologic storage. The rule takes effect Nov. 12, 2026. On that date, ECMC will replace EPA as the primary authority for reviewing permit applications, issuing permits, overseeing construction and operation, monitoring compliance, and enforcing Class VI requirements on non-Indian lands in Colorado. EPA will retain authority over Class VI wells on
