HB 562 Ohio House · 135th Legislature (2023-2024)

Require certain disclosures for well drilling in state parks

This bill requires owners of horizontal oil and gas wells drilling in state parks to list the chemical ingredients and trade names of all fluids and substances used during their operations. The owners must submit this information to the state's oil and gas management division at least thirty days before using any new materials. Once received, the division must immediately publish these details on its official website to ensure public transparency. The law directly affects energy companies operating within state parks and the state agency responsible for regulating their activities.
