Community Relations

Range is dedicated to building trust and fostering collaboration in the communities where we operate. As such, we have a team dedicated to collaborating with the members of the communities where we work. This commitment is brought to life by maintaining strong relationships and open communication with residents, local governments, safety officials, schools, and other civic representatives. Both ongoing and new projects are discussed with these parties. As a Company that strives to identify improvement opportunities, we are always looking for ways to better our operations by partnering with local organizations and incorporating feedback from our local communities as appropriate.

We also aim to maintain open lines of communication with our communities to ensure we are anticipating and being responsive to their needs. Throughout the year, we organize and facilitate a series of programs intended to maintain ongoing, two-way engagement with residents. Through these programs, we provide essential information and timely updates, allowing us to interact regularly with community members. For example, we seek to inform and foster feedback from community members through coffee break discussions, Community Advisory Panel (CAP) meetings, field tours, meetings with non-profits, and presentations to rotary groups, tech schools, and local chambers, among other outreach efforts.

We operate in the same communities we call home. The safety and well-being of these neighborhoods are of top concern for Range. Our Land, Security, and Safety Teams work diligently to ensure the community is considered in all aspects of their respective processes.

Traffic Coordination: Range understands the importance of minimizing any temporary impacts our operations may have on traffic patterns. With this in mind, we partner with local governments and safety officials, when possible, to develop traffic coordination plans. We also work with nearby schools to understand and consider their busing schedules and routes when managing our operations.Once traffic coordination plans are developed, Range clearly communicates traffic plans and guidelines to all our contractors and employees at every location. To ensure that traffic coordination plans are followed, we leverage GPS technology, roving traffic monitors, restricted speed limits, signage on local roadways, and other related tools.

Light, Sound, and Dust: We work closely with communities, townships, and residents to best eliminate, mitigate, and reduce any

possible inconveniences associated with our work. As a result, techniques we may use include, but are not limited to:

Light shielding equipment that focuses light on the work area and not on surrounding areas.
Dust control measures for roads.
Sound engineering modeling and analysis prior to beginning any work and sound walls to reduce associated sound.

Landowner Communications: Range also conducts proactive outreach to landowners to inform them about our operations, their lease, and other relevant information. We provide various channels of communication for landowners to contact us with any questions or concerns they may have.
