CALIFORNIA LEGISLATURE— 2017–2018 REGULAR SESSION

Assembly Bill

No. 2057

Introduced by Assembly Member Salas

February 06, 2018

An act to amend Section 3150 of the Public Resources Code, relating to oil and gas.

LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST

AB 2057, as introduced, Salas. Oil and gas: additive.

Existing law requires the Division of Oil, Gas, and Geothermal Resources to regulate the drilling and operation of wells used for the purpose of producing oil and gas. Existing law defines various terms for those purposes, including additive.

This bill would make nonsubstantive changes to that definition.

Vote: MAJORITY Appropriation: NO Fiscal Committee: NO Local Program: NO

The people of the State of California do enact as follows:

SECTION 1.

Section 3150 of the Public Resources Code is amended to read:

3150.

“Additive” means a substance or combination of substances added to a base fluid for purposes of preparing well stimulation treatment fluid ~~which~~ that includes, but is not necessarily limited to, an acid stimulation treatment fluid or a hydraulic fracturing fluid. An additive may, but is not required to, serve additional purposes beyond the transmission of hydraulic pressure to the geologic formation. An additive may be of any phase and includes proppants.
