Being Proactive Works In PA

After receiving a letter from a state senator, the Attorney General of PA is reviewing whether that office has jurisdiction to investigate complaints from landowners about the costs deducted from their royalty checks.

The letter from the state senator was prompted by his office being"inundated" with complaints from landowners.

This site is great for information but if you want action you must be the source. Write/call your local and state officials with your concerns and questions. I am amazed how many people are afraid to do this; and for those who finally do their surprise at the response they received. Especially with regard to the ODNR; I can't tell you how many times I have called the ODNR offices and had questions answered within a short period of time. Those offices are staffed by dedicated professionals willing to help.

So just as those folks in PA took action I urge all landowners to do the same.

I assume many of the responses here must be from landowners in WPA.  I live in Bradford County and Yaw is my PA Senator.  If you WPA people want the straight dope on this debacle, read this article from here and the comments which follow:

Yaw is no friend of landowners

By his own admission it took Yaw a year to respond to this.  In addition, Section 2.1 of his PA Act 66 of 2013 brought harm primarily to WPA landowners!!!!

Yaw will be buoyed if he reads the low information OP.  Landowners, and in particular those in WPA, should fully inform themselves before writing such Pollyanna tripe.

Thanks. This is also helpful to us mineral owners who were born and raised in Pa. but now live in a different state.
