ALOV and Northern Trumbull County- Updated Discussion to include BP Lessor's and Bonus money Payment's

Hello all!

 I have been doing a little research and speaking with friends and neighbors about forming a group to address the needs of those of us not yet represented by a landowners group.

This led me to call ALOV after hearing that they had accepted some acreage in Trumbull county.

I paid little attention to ALOV earlier as their website did not list Trumbull county as an area of interest, although the work they were doing was certainly of great interest to me.

 From what i gather there was a cut-off of June 30 for sign-up with ALOV, they extended that and also had a meeting at RD banks Chevy in Champion. This may not be news to some of you, but i had not come across the posting until after. The word i got from an individual at ALOV was that Chesapeake set a northern geographical cut-off in Trumbull county of St.Rt.88, again this may not be a newsworthy flash to some. Many landowners attended, more than expected according again to a source at ALOV, and signed up their acreage.

Now heres the news, ALOV has agreed to start a "Waiting List" of still more interested parties from areas north of St.Rt.88. If you call them with name, address and phone number they will put you on the list, and depending on level of interest, they may choose to represent us as a group in a similiar fashion, with the same or even better terms to Chesapeake, or another interested party.

So call up ALOV, their number is listed on their site www.alov.us , and ask to be included in their next go around. From where i stand why re-invent the wheel, they already have done the groundwork and have the attention of the industry on favorable terms, lets ask them to either start another "Pool" to include us, or come work with us to the same end.

If you have information to share, please join in the discussion, Thanks 

 Hello again to all my fellow Utica Shale Owners. I Just stopped in to ask if there were any who signed with BP from the ALOV Northern Trumbull county group, that resulted from these efforts, still around.

Has anyone had any conversations/correspondence from BP concerning title defects, or other issues that would delay payment or affect your lease, or gotten a check for Bonus money?

Im still waiting myself,but my deadline is Nov 1.  I just hope I dont need to wait to the last day.

Now I can't help but fear a defect. I can't understand why there would be but who knows. It is not so much the waiting as it is the not knowing. Best wishes to everyone.

Everyone...thanks for all the information!  I've also done some research and that old lease from 1980 is something that had to do with my ex-husband and Atlas Energy, whom has since gone out of business.  I dug out that old lease (thankfully I'm a pack rat!) and saw that it was never notarized, nor have we ever been paid anything.  There is no well on my property, I've lived here since 1979 and I'm pretty sure I would have noticed it!  So I'm going to give BP until the end of the week before I call them to find out what is going on.  I know that I also have options with other companies if BP drops the ball on this.  I'm just keeping my fingers crossed and thinking positive thoughts...but make no mistake....I will fight tooth and nail to get this mess cleared up.  If some fly by night company thinks they are going to screw me out of what is rightfully mine, they are in for a serious fight.

Great news Debby 

Great news, everyone!  Fed Ex was here today and while I didn't get a check, my defect letter fix will involve me running down to the property tax office and pick up a letter saying I'm on a payment plan for my property taxes and have made every payment, send BP that letter and things will be good!

Anyone else have late taxes and recieved a payment?

I know of some folks that are behind and got the check. No problem.

Thanks IT, I got nervous and ran out and mailed mine in today, I really didnt think being 2 months late would make a difference.

Oct 2..Still no check, no letter , no Fedex here.

Nothing here either. Keeping the faith but on edge. Champion Township.

Nothing here either, im assuming you guys are both in the 2nd group?

nothing here in Farmdale, 2nd group..... is there anyone from the 1st group that didn't get a check or letter?
