XTO Energy application for two 960 Acre Haynesville units in 16N 9W Bienville Parish North of Ringgold

I posted this yesterday on the Bienville Parish forum and would like some input from this forum on action to take and help. If this operator succeeds in Bienville Parish.... watch out everywhere!

They are revising the May 11th proposal and splitting sec 7 in half.... combining with sec 6 to the north and 18 to the south making two units of 960 or so acres each. Anyone ever hear of any Haynesville units other than next to the Texas border and along the Red River this large? I don't like where this is going, if this is approved any operator who needs to hold expiring lease acres will start applying for larger units.
All of the land owners in these three sections and border sections need to turn out and attend the July 1 or July 2nd pre-application conference ( they stated July 1 in one paragraph and July 2nd in another) the Docket # is 09-675. The conference will be at the Petroleum Club, Energy room C ,15th floor, 416 Travis Street, Shreveport La. on one of the two days. I am sure another letter will follow to specify the exact day. The notice was from Hargrove, Smelley, Strickland and Langley Law office 318-429-7200 if anyone wants to call and find out the correct day. I don't have any land in any of these sections just adjoining section and will try to call the conference anyway. What is really needed is a big showing here and a bigger show at the pool hearing in Baton Rouge.... If this is not killed at the pre-application conference and XTO still decides to continue for a hearing on these units at 960 acres.
I would hope if enough mineral/land owners oppose ....it will never be approved.
The pre-application notice also includes the pooling of section 17 16N 9W as a single unit (640) and section 12 16N 10W as a single unit(640).
E-mail everyone... we need to nip this at the bud before the start!

I will get a interested party list and get a petition started signing as many affected mineral/land owners
opposing to present at the pre-conference and if needed at the pool hearing in Baton Rouge.
Thanks Skin

Thanks, E & E. It would be helpful to have a copy of the text of the pre-conference letter also. At least the date, time and location of the meeting.

I went to the Petroleum Tower today to the offices of Hargrove, Smelly, etc, etc.and in person requested a pre-conference. I was announced to to the Lawyer who is handling XTO's filings and he was tied up at the time I was at their office. I did leave my e-mail address and phone text number if he needed additional information. I did get a list of all the interested party's in the pooling, quite a list .... 25 pages and around 480 entry's. Maybe I should follow up with a certified letter to be assured of the conference. Anyone else requested a conference?
