EFPs can help producers show due diligence

March 3, 2008:

Because many energy companies have Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) pertaining to reclamation and record keeping, landowners should show their level of due diligence when dealing with energy companies working on leased farmland. An EFP can help, says Dan Moe, a workshop facilitator and regional team leader for the EFP program in the Central Region.

"The landowner should conduct soil and water testing before the energy company begins its activity, record when these tests are done, and keep records of the results for reference in the event of a dispute. Beneficial Management Practices (BMPs) outlined by the EFP program can play a large role in helping producers prove due diligence."
