The New Mexico Oil and Gas Act of 1935 established the three-member Oil Conservation Commission. (NMSA 1978, \u00a770-2-4).\u00a0 The Commission members are:<\/p>\n
1) the Director of the Oil Conservation Division,<\/p>\n
2) a designee of the Commissioner of Public Lands, and<\/p>\n
3) a designee of the Secretary of the Energy, Minerals and Natural Resources Department.<\/p>\n
While the Act grants the Commission \u201cconcurrent jurisdiction and authority\u201d with the Division (\u00a770-2-6(B)), the Commission\u2019s activities today focus on two areas: the consideration and adoption of rules (\u00a770-2-12.2) and the de novo review of orders entered by the Director (\u00a770-2-13). The Commission establishes a schedule of monthly meetings. Hearings generally occur at the meetings.<\/p>\n
The Commission posts a draft agenda for its regular meetings ten days before the meeting and a final agenda 72 hours before the meeting. Notices for meetings and hearings can be found below.<\/p>\n
