On June 22, 2015, the
Senate Environmental Resources & Energy Committee met to consider Senate Bill No. 875 providing for the use of treated mine
water for oil and gas development – which was reported the same day. The Senate
Committee vote was 10 in favor and 1 opposed.
Referred to the Senate
Committee on June 4, 2015, SB 875 is aimed at encouraging the use of treated
mine water in oil and gas operations by clarifying operators’ liabilities
associated with the said water.
More information on the
Bill content can be found in an earlier post,
or a summary of the Bill is available here.
