Working to protect Tier landowners

We would like to advise Press & Sun-Bulletin readers of the ongoing collaboration between the American Association of Professional Landmen (AAPL) and the New York Farm Bureau. Our goal is to ensure that the community is well- informed on the issue of natural gas leasing.

To that end, AAPL has prepared a Land and Mineral Owner Information brochure. It is available on the Web sites for the Farm Bureau (www.nyfb.org) and AAPL (www.landman.org).

We have established a complaint form and process. Landowner complaints related to alleged unethical behavior are being received by the Farm Bureau and delivered to the AAPL's Ethics Committee for further handling, including distribution to the person/ company/entity a complaint is filed against.

We are committed to working together to resolve issues and will closely monitor the implementation of the complaint form and procedures over the next several months. It is our common goal to protect landowners from "bad actors," and we believe that this is a solid step in that direction.
