We received the Pooling Order in Cause CD No. 2025-003650 and the 20 days to respond are nearly over. We have only a 0.000069 acres interest in Sec.28, T7N, R7W and are wondering if we are supposed to respond since we are not even close to an acre interest. There are 7 of us who have inherited this very small interest and Camino Natural Resources does not even have all our addresses. So any advice on responding to the Order would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Sharon
Yes, you must respond. When you do, let them know that seven of you inherited and that you are selecting the highest royalty. Give all of the names and addresses and a copy of your probate document. You may need all of you to sign the letter- or all sign an identical letter. Has the probate been filed in the proper county where the minerals are located. If not, then you can straighten it out later, but for now get them informed or you get stuck with the lowest royalty. Send by certified mail return receipt and keep a copy. Do you need a template letter? I have attached one. Add your second page with names and addresses.

I had two different tracts with Camino Natural Resources that were being force pooled in that area. I received so many different election forms for each tract and no reason why. No explanations. I called multiple times, emailed over and over and finally gave up. Finally, 3 months later I received checks for my pooling interests. The department for the pooling and whoever is doing their title chains has dropped the ball more times than I can count. The left hand has no clue what the right hand is doing. Something needs to be done. The mineral owners are getting fed up.
