055-3 Wyo. Code R. § 3-38 - Oil Mining Requirements
Before beginning oil mining operations, the Owner/Operator shall first apply for and obtain a permit to do so from the Commission or Supervisor, and shall furnish the Commission with a bond or other security approved under the Commission's Rules. The application for a permit may be denied or the permit revoked by the Supervisor if he finds the oil mining operation will violate or has violated the Rules and orders of the Commission, the orders of the Supervisor, or the Commission or their agents, or the Oil and Gas Conservation Act. If denied or revoked, the oil mining owner has the right to a hearing before the Commission, which may deny or revoke the permit on the same grounds as noted above for denial or revocation by the Supervisor. The conditions of the bond or other security shall be in compliance with the Wyoming Conservation Act, the Commission's Rules and orders. The bond or other security may be forfeited or released under the procedure specified under Section 7 of this chapter. Before changing an oil mining operation as approved by the Commission or Supervisor under the permit, the oil mining owner shall notify the Commission by Sundry Notice (Form 4). Oil mining operations shall comply with the Commission's Rules and Regulations, except where compliance is waived in writing by the Supervisor. The Commission shall regulate oil mining for the purpose of conservation of oil, gas, and environmental resources and to protect correlative rights.
