STF Permitting Tips
• Closure Cost Estimates (CCE) should clearly explain every assumption
• Engineering and geological work products must be signed by their respective Texas-registered professionals
• All oil and gas waste and products should be stored in lined permitted or authorized pits, or above-ground storage tanks until reuse or disposal
