(a)
				Within sixty days after the end of the month of production, each producing
				owner shall report and account to the operator of the well, the identity of the
				first purchaser or shipper of the gas and information specified in
				165:10-27-13.
(b) Within fifteen days after the end of the
				month of production, each owner of a gas meter taking gas solely from a
				gathering system shall provide upon first request by the owner of such
				gathering system and thereafter, the gross volume of gas measured by such meter
				both in MCF and British Thermal Unit equivalent.
(c) Within twenty days after the end of the
				month of production, each owner of a gas meter shall provide or cause to be
				provided in writing to the operator of the well, the gross volume of gas
				measured by such meter, both in MCF and British Thermal Unit equivalent, and
				the volume of gas allocated at the meter to each first purchaser or shipper and
				each contracted producing owner that sold gas to the owner of the gas meter.
				Each meter owner shall, within the same time period, furnish each first
				purchaser or shipper the volume of gas allocated at the meter to that first
				purchaser or shipper. However, if the gas processing plant operator is
				performing the allocations, then within ten days after the end of the month of
				production, the owner of the pipeline residue gas meter shall provide, upon
				first request by the processing plant operator and thereafter, the volume in
				MCF and British Thermal Unit equivalent measured through its meter as required
				by the gas processing plant operator for its allocations under this
				subsection.
(d) As an alternative
				to supplying the operator with information in the manner prescribed by
				subsections (b) and (c) of this Section, the owner of a gas meter who has a
				contract with one or more producing owners, covering all of the gas flowing
				through its meter, may furnish monthly volume statements to the operator of the
				well, provided said owner of the gas meter has previously furnished the
				operator with names of the producing owners and the decimal interest owned by
				each such producing owner or owners or any method other than by decimal
				interest then in effect for allocating gas among the producing owners. After
				adopting alternative reporting under this subsection, the owner of the gas
				meter shall be required to supply the operator of the well with any change to
				the name of a producing owner, the decimal interest by a producing owner or the
				method, other than by decimal interest, for allocating gas among the producing
				owners: such change to reported by the owner of the gas meter to the operator
				of the well within thirty days after the owner of the gas meter receives notice
				of such change.
(e) Within
				thirty-five days after the end of the month of production, each first purchaser
				or shipper of gas from a gas meter shall furnish or cause to be furnished to
				the operator of the well, a volume allocation statement showing the volume of
				gas purchased from or shipper for each contracted producing owner. Within
				thirty days after making any retroactive gas volume adjustment for such well,
				the first purchaser or shipper shall furnish notice of such retroactive gas
				volume adjustment to the operator of the well.
(f) Any person subject to multiple reporting
				requirements under this Section shall not be required to re-report the same
				information to the operator if such information has been previously provided by
				such person in a different report. Such person may consolidate the required
				information into a single report to the operator; provided, however, that all
				such reporting must comply with the applicable statutory time periods for the
				type of information being communicated to the operator.
(g) Any first purchaser, shipper or owner of
				a gas meter that does not provide the information required of it by this
				Section shall be subject to having its takes from the well suspended by the
				operator of the well pursuant to
				165:10-27-8.
