oil and gas commission; fees

HB 2748 amends Arizona's oil and gas statutes to establish specific fees and confidentiality rules. It requires oil and gas operators to pay a $25 fee per well for drilling permits (Section 27-513, 27-659) and a $50 fee for requesting hearings (Section 27-517). The bill also allows operators to request extended confidentiality for well records in unproven areas - initially for one year, with potential two-year extensions - provided they prove disclosure would harm their competitive position (Section 27-522). All collected fees are deposited into the state general fund, with no changes to existing record-access requirements for water resources officials.
