Thank you for the information. The piece of property that we are considering is only 20 acres. Because most mineral interests are not conveyed nowdays I was looking for what the surface owner's right are when it comes to drilling, sites, pumping stations, etc. We may not have any input on what happens in the future but I would like to know that upfront in making our decision. We only have 3 days to decide and I wanted to factor this in. My original question was, what, if any, rights do we have in what goes on in the future and what, if any, language can be put in the sales contract to protect us. Thanks for any advice!
