Railroad Commissioner Christi Craddick sat down with The Texan’s Senior Reporter Brad Johnson to discuss how her office fights to regulate the oil and gas industry while keeping endangered species safe. 

“When you look at us we regulate oil and gas... we also do pipelines and pipeline safety in the state. We have about 480,000 miles of interstate and intrastate pine in the state, which is to the moon and back,” Craddick said when taking a look at a portion of the work she oversees. 

The railroad commissioner also has a responsibility to the environment. “The kicker is this one. We now have to get US fish and wildlife to sign off on all these sights too. And it isn't just endangered species, or potentials, or animals, but it could be grass, or plants, or other things,” she explained.
