A Denver oil and gas company hit with a $1.9 million penalty and facing the possible loss of its right to operate in Colorado is suing state regulators.

filed a lawsuit Friday in Denver District Court to appeal a decision by the Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission that found the company out of compliance with a plan to clean up spills and fix other alleged violations.

The COGCC’s order deprives KPK of its operating revenue, while at the same time it demands the company “complete scores of ongoing remediation projects by mid-summer and pay nearly $2 million in penalties by mid-March,” the company said. In a Feb. 27 hearing, John Jacus, an attorney, representing KPK, asked the COGCC to reconsider the order and to delay the sanctions for six months.
