Organization reports for operators of inactive wells: The Commission may not approve the P-5 Organization Report for an operator of one or more inactive wells unless the operator has complied with Commission rules and Texas statutes concerning the approval of plugging extensions for such inactive wells, including disconnection of electrical service and any required surface equipment removal.
Organization reports for operators with outstanding enforcement orders/judgments: The Commission may not approve the P-5 Organization Report for an operator if that operator is the subject of a final and unappealable order related to a violation of a Commission rule, order, license, permit, or certificate relating to safety or the prevention or control of pollution. Organization Reports for organizations with officers who are subject to such outstanding orders through their involvement with other organizations similarly may not be approved.
If the organization has used, or reported use of, a well for which the Certificate of Compliance has been canceled, the Commission may refuse to approve an Organization Report until the operator has paid any requried reconnect fees and the Certificate of Compliance has been reissued for the well.
An organization must file an amended Organization Report within 15 days after a change in any information required to be reported in the Organization Report.

INSTRUCTIONS
Organization Report (Form P-5)
REFERENCES: Oil & Gas Statewide Rules 1 (Organization Report; Retention of Records; Notice Requirements), 14 (Plugging), 15 (Inactive Wells and Surface Equipment Requirements), and 78 (Fees, Performance Bonds and Alternate Forms of Financial Security Required To Be Filed); and Pipeline Safety Statewide Rule 58 (Organization Report). The Railroad Commission’s rules may be found on our website at http://www.rrc.state.tx.us/rules/rule.php.
WHO MUST FILE FORM P-5: Any entity performing operations within the jurisdiction of the Commission’s Oil & Gas Division in accordance with Oil and Gas Statewide Rule 1; and each gas and/or liquids company and each master meter operator performing operations within the jurisdiction of the Commission’s Safety Division in accordance with Pipeline Safety Statewide Rule 58. (Master meter operators filing solely as required by the Safety Division, see “Special Instructions For Master Metered System Operators” section below.)
WHEN TO FILE FORM P-5:
•INITIAL FILING – Your initial Organization Report must be filed prior to beginning operations within the Commission’s jurisdiction.
•RENEWAL FILINGS – Your Organization Report must be refiled annually. The Commission will notify you before your refiling date by mailing you computer-generated Organization Report forms pre-printed with the information currently shown on your Organization Report record. Review the information carefully, update as needed, and then sign and submit the Organization Report renewal to the Commission.
•CHANGES - If any information provided on your organization report changes, you must submit a revised organization report within fifteen (15) days of the change, except as noted below:
ADDRESS CHANGES - If the only change is to the organization’s address or telephone number, then you may update that information by sending a signed letter to the P-5 Financial Assurance Unit. No other information may be updated by letter. ORGANIZATION NAME CHANGE – If the name of the organization has changed (due to reorganization or change in the form of business), you must file a new Organization Report in the new name and obtain a new operator number. A new filing submitted for this purpose should reference the prior name by entering that information in Item No. 7.
SPECIFIC ITEMS ON FORM P-5
No. 1: Check the proper block to show the purpose of filing. More than one block may be checked.
No. 2: Your permanent RRC operator number is assigned after the initial filing of your P-5. Your operator number will be required on most reports and forms you file with the Commission.
No. 3: “Name of Entity”: For new filings, enter the full name of your organization. If you are required to register with the Texas Secretary of State, your name shown in Box 3 on the Organization Report should exactly match your name as shown on your Secretary of State registration, including punctuation. (Due to space limitations, the Commission may abbreviate your name for entry into Commission systems.)
No. 4: Check the appropriate plan of organization on all filings. Select only one plan of organization.
No. 5: If you are a foreign or non-resident organization (i.e., your organization is located outside of the State of Texas as indicated by the street address in No. 3), you must designate and maintain a Texas resident agent within the state. A Texas Resident Agent with an address different from that of the organization may also be designated as an alternative to providing separate addresses for the officers on Form P-5O (Organization Report Officer Listing).
No. 7: If you have reorganized and changed your organization name, check the box and provide the previous name and operator number.
SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR MASTER METERED SYSTEM OPERATORS: If the operation of one or more master metered systems is the only activity for which the Organization Report is being filed, then you should note that in Item No. 8 (Remarks), and observe the following requirements:
•The required filing fee for New Filings and Annual Renewals is $225.00.
•No financial assurance is required for master meter operators.
•The Organization Report must be filed in the name of the legal entity operating the master meter.
•The system manager(s) must be identified among the officers on Form P-5O.
•A listing of all systems for which the filing entity is responsible must be attached to the Organization Report filing.
FILING FEE: Except as noted above, the filing fee for a New Filing (the initial Organization Report filed by an entity) is $300.00. The filing fee for an Annual Renewal of an entity’s Organization Report will be based on the activities in which the organization is engaged, and may be up to $1,350.00. See Rule 78. (There is no filing fee for an Organization Report filed solely to update officers, agents and/or addresses.)
FINANCIAL ASSURANCE: Most Commission regulated activities, including the operation of wells and pipelines, will require the operator to file and maintain some form of financial assurance (such as a bond, letter of credit, or cash deposit) in varying amounts. If the filing operator is required to maintain financial assurance, any renewal documentation for the financial assurance must be on file for the period covered by the P-5 Organization Report (plus any additional period following expiration of the Organization Report that may be required by your financial assurance documents) before the Organization Report renewal can be approved and processed.
EMAIL ADDRESS: YOU ARE NOT REQUIRED TO PROVIDE AN EMAIL ADDRESS when completing and filing this form. Please be aware that information provided to any governmental body may be subject to disclosure pursuant to the Texas Public Information Act or other applicable federal or state legislation. IF YOU PROVIDE AN EMAIL ADDRESS, YOU AFFIRMATIVELY CONSENT TO THE RELEASE OF THAT EMAIL ADDRESS TO THIRD PARTIES. Other departments within the Railroad Commission also may use the email address you provide to communicate with you.

THIS FORM MAY BE FILED AT ANY TIME. If a change in an organization's representation has occurred, a revised Non-Employee Agent Listing may be filed at any time to update the commission’s records.
IF ANY NON-EMPLOYEE AGENTS LISTED ON THIS FORM ARE NOT CURRENTLY DESIGNATED ON YOUR ORGANIZATION REPORT RECORD, THEN THIS FORM P-5A MUST BE SIGNED BY A DULY AUTHORIZED COMPANY OFFICER OR EMPLOYEE. (If no changes have been made to the information on this form and it is being filed in connection with the annual renewal of the organization's P-5, then a previously designated non-employee agent listed below may sign it.)
