Two years later, Brenda was recruited by J-W Operating Company to bring their air quality program into compliance. During her tenure with air compliance at J-W, Brenda was instrumental in applying for and receiving a state grant to assist with the cost of air quality controls at one of their gathering sites. A few years after managing the air quality program, Brenda was tasked with overseeing J-W Operating’s exploration and production regulatory department. Part of that oversight was becoming involved in the various committees of the Marcellus Shale Coalition and the Louisiana Oil and Gas Association. After 11years at J-W, Brenda was asked to join Buffco Production in its endeavor to meet and maintain regulatory compliance in an ever-evolving environment.
