There’s a new rig drilling about 3 miles south of Gause in the area of Shimek-Hoppe #1 that I can’t find a permit to see who’s the operator. I’ve got 62 acres in the block with Shimek-Hoppe #1 but I’ve also got 245 acres across the road that’s unleased. At one time XTO paid $500 an acre but that lease has expired and I’m hoping to see who is currently drilling about a mile away and if they have any interest.
Thanks to anyone who can point me in the right direction. I thought a permit was required but I sure haven’t found anything.

Dennis the Shimek-Hoppe #1 is in A-53/F. Rodriguez Survey and the latest approved permit for Milam County A-53 is the link I am posting… Treadstone Energy/API 331-35068. Maybe this is what you are searching for:

Thank you Sir, That’s the one. I sure wish it had been moved a mile or so to the West. I appreciate the help.
