Status: in_force

B. The purpose of the ONGARD System Development Act is to provide for the development of an oil and gas data base system that will assure that the state is receiving the oil and gas tax and royalty revenue to which it is entitled, that the appropriate calculations are based on proper volumes and values and that correct amounts are remitted and accurately accounted for.
