Oil and gas conservation commission-regulation of pits.

SF 15 amends Wyoming law to give the Oil and Gas Conservation Commission authority to regulate specific types of pits used in oil and gas operations. The bill directly affects oil and gas operators who use noncommercial reserve pits, produced water retention pits, or emergency overflow pits for storing drilling fluids, produced water, or related wastes. Key provisions require these pits to follow rules for location, construction, operation, and cleanup to prevent contamination of state waters. The law takes effect July 1, 2025, and does not change existing discharge permits under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System.
