"I live in Pa and own 1 property that I own the oil and gas, but not the coal or minerals. The other property I don't own coal or minerals but no mention of gas or oil. I can't see why it would be assumed the coal and mineral owner would…"

"I think I will introduce a Bill that provides that when the surface owner doesn't take care of the property, or live on the property, that the mineral rights owner can take over the surface rights... makes a whole lot of sense when you put the…"

"And I also sold my land much lower than what it is worth thinking there would be no problems later.  i gave people the chance to own land who may or never will get a chance.  This Bill will hurt alot of future and current land owners."
