Negotiated Rulemaking for Rules Governing Conservation of Oil and Natural Gas in the State of Idaho
(Boise) - Following Executive Order 2020-01, Zero Based Regulation, the rules in IDAPA 20.07.02, Governing Conservation of Oil and Natural Gas in the State of Idaho are scheduled for a comprehensive review in 2024, with the goal of simplifying for increased clarity and ease of use.
Revisions are needed to better align the rules with statute revisions that occurred in 2017 and 2023. IDL anticipates reducing the total word count by removing repetitive statements from the rule chapters.
Public meetings will be held regarding the rules. Those wishing to participate in a meeting may do so in person or by Zoom.
