Requiring declaration of pooled units be filed with drilling permits

SB 245 requires oil and gas operators to file a detailed "Declaration of Pooled Unit" with county clerks within 60 days of receiving a drilling permit. This declaration must include specific information about well locations, parcel boundaries, lease details, and acreage calculations for all wells in a pooled unit. It also mandates additional filings when wellbores cross unit boundaries and gives lessors or royalty owners 60 days to request operator compliance, with the option to pursue legal action if requirements aren't met. The bill directly affects operators, lessors (landowners leasing mineral rights), and royalty owners by increasing transparency around pooled drilling operations.
