An Act amending the act of March 4, 1971 (P.L.6, No.2), known as the Tax Reform Code of 1971, providing for natural gas severance tax; and repealing expiration provision relating to unconventional gas well fees.
SB 910 creates a new 6.5% severance tax on natural gas extracted at the wellhead in Pennsylvania, starting January 1, 2026. It directly affects natural gas producers (businesses extracting gas for sale or commercial use), excluding those working with storage fields or coal bed methane. The bill requires producers to report monthly gas volumes and pay taxes within 15 days of each reporting period, with revenues deposited into the state General Fund. It also repeals an expiration provision for unconventional gas well fees, ensuring those fees remain in effect.
