Description
Plats or maps; where map acreage differs from amount listed in county records. Requires a surveyor or engineer to certify that the acreages shown on a map or plat produced under the Virginia Oil and Gas Act since January 1, 1990, match the acreages listed in the county records. Where a mapped acreage differs from that listed in the county records, the operator is required to commission a survey and record a deed of correction in order to reconcile the acreages. Submitting a plat in violation of the accuracy requirement will cause all damaged mineral owners in the unit to be deemed fully-paid participants in the unit. The bill has an effective date of January 1, 2013. Read the Bill »
