The Interstate Compact to Conserve Oil and Gas is an interstate compact among 31 states: Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Florida, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Michigan, Mississippi, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Mexico, New York, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Dakota, Texas, Utah, Virginia, West Virginia and Wyoming. The compact also has congressional consent.[1][2]

The compact's goal is to establish a commission that will manage conservation of oil and gas resources. The commission is also intended to prevent waste from the production and storage of those resources. Renewal of the compact's congressional consent is required every four years.[1]

Text of the compact

The legislature of each member state passes its own version of the legislation, but the core language of the legislation remains the same.
