The boundaries of a licence must conform to the grid as
established by the Petroleum and Natural Gas Act.
A
licence location must consist of adjoining units but cannot exceed more
than 20 units per licence.
For the purposes of
calculating the 1st years rental, use 75 hectares per unit as an estimate
for calculating the total hectares of your application.
A licence may be
reduced in size upon notification to the Minister and according to the
Coal Act Regulation. Compensation or refund of the
annual rental are not issued as a result of the reduction in the size of a
licence.
