Technical Guidance—Minor Revision
DEP ID: 550-2501-101. Title: Guidelines for Submitting Oil and Gas Well Bonds. Description: Technical Guidance 550-2501-101 sets forth instruction to bond applicants and financial guarantors for submitting proper documents and financial instruments for oil and gas well bonds. The guidance has been in effect since April 16, 2001. The Department is amending the version of the guidance posted on the Department's web site to incorporate changes to the forms entitled ''Department Requirements for Execution of Bond Instruments'' and ''Guidelines for Submission of Collateral Letters of Credit.'' The revisions to the ''Department Requirements for Execution of Bond Instruments'' include bank officer signature clarifications; power-of-attorney requirements for surety company Agent signatures; and removal of unnecessary footnotes for bank by-laws. The revisions to the ''Guidelines for Submission of Collateral Letters of Credit'' include removal of the outdated wording for preprinted letters of credit in the Standard Letter section; and deletion of the overpayment litigation language in the Pennsylvania Financial Institution section. This action is intended to improve the public's understanding to available information and does not in any way affect the policies and procedures outlined in the April 16, 2001 guidance.
Effective date: January 16, 2010.
JOHN HANGER,
Secretary
