What it does
Existing law establishes the Geologic Energy Management Division in the Department of Conservation under the direction of the State Oil and Gas Supervisor, who is required to supervise the drilling, operation, maintenance, and abandonment of oil and gas wells. Existing law requires the owner of any well to file with the supervisor a monthly statement that provides certain information relating to the well, including the source, volume, treatment, and disposition of water produced in oil and gas activities. Under existing law, a person who fails to comply with this and other requirements relating to the regulation of oil or gas operations is guilty of a misdemeanor.
