Antero Midstream Corp provides only limited insight into how it governs lobbying. The company states that "Antero’s Board of Directors has ultimate oversight" and that its "Board ESG Committee provides guidance relating to the identification and evaluation of risks and opportunities related to the environment and climate change… and social and political trends," adding that the committee "provides valuable counsel to the Board and management on significant public policy issues." This identifies a formal board-level body with a role in supervising public-policy engagement, suggesting some oversight of lobbying activities. Nevertheless, the disclosure stops at high-level statements; beyond asserting that "we believe in the importance of transparency when it comes to our lobbying efforts and political contributions" and maintaining a policy "not to make political contributions in support of any party or candidate," the company does not detail procedures to review or align its direct or indirect lobbying with its climate objectives, does not mention monitoring or audits of trade-association positions, and does not describe any mechanisms for enforcement or corrective action. Therefore, while minimal governance exists through the named ESG Committee, the company does not disclose a structured process for managing or ensuring alignment of climate-related lobbying.
