349.075 Spacing requirements for vertical and horizontal coalbed methane wells. Except as provided in KRS 349.070, or pursuant to voluntary pooling, no permit shall be issued for a coalbed methane well unless the proposed location of a vertical well shall be at least seven hundred fifty (750) feet horizontally from the nearest mineral boundary upon which the well is to be drilled and the proposed location shall be at least one thousand five hundred (1,500) feet horizontally from the nearest coalbed methane well, unless the department orders that a different spacing distance shall apply. Spacing distances for coalbed methane horizontal wells shall be separately established by the department pursuant to this chapter. Effective: July 13, 2004 History: Created 2004 Ky. Acts ch. 65, sec. 15, effective July 13, 2004. Legislative Research Commission Note (7/13/2004). When this statute was enacted (2004 Ky. Acts ch. 65, sec. 15), the word "subchapter" was erroneously included in the last sentence of the section. KRS Chapter 349, which was created in this bill, is not divided into subchapters. This manifest clerical or typographical error has been corrected by changing the word "subchapter" to "chapter" by the Reviser of Statutes pursuant to KRS 7.136.
