RRC district (printed designation)
rrc.district
The district as the Railroad Commission prints it: 01-06, 6E, 7B, 7C, 08, 8A, 09 and 10, plus 20 for statewide. This is what appears on permits, completions, ST-1 filings and inspection reports. It is not interchangeable with the internal district number. A column holding '11' means District 8A under the internal numbering and nothing at all under this one.

Columns that use these codes
| Dataset | Column | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Certificate of Authorization P-4 (Oil and Gas) | district |
The same district written the way RRC prints it -- 01-06, 6E, 7B, 7C, 08, 8A, 09, 10 -- derived by the loader from district_no, which is what the tape actually holds. This is the readable one; district_no is the one to join on. No lease on the August 2026 tape is in District 8B. |
| Completion Information in Data Format | district |
RRC district the record belongs to, written the way RRC prints it (01-06, 6E, 7B, 7C, 08, 8A, 09, 10). |
| Drilling Permits Pending Approval (with latitudes and longitudes) | district |
RRC district as the industry prints it — 01-06, 6E, 7B, 7C, 08, 8A, 09, 10. Unlike the daf802 tables, this file writes the printed code rather than the internal number. |
| Gas Annual Report Field Table | district |
The district as RRC prints it (01-06, 7B, 7C, 08, 8A, 09, 10), zero-padded from the one or two characters the file writes. Which part a row came from, and the second element of its key. |
| Gas Well Status (26 Month G-10) | district |
RRC district the well is in, written the way RRC prints it: 01-06, 7B, 7C, 08, 8A, 09, 10 (the manual does not list 6E for gas). Not the internal number PDQ uses in district_no — join to PDQ on district_name. |
| Horizontal Drilling Permits | district |
RRC district as the industry prints it — 01-06, 6E, 7B, 7C, 08, 8A, 09, 10 — decoded by the loader from district_subscript. This is the column to join on. |
| Natural Gas Policy Act | district |
The district as RRC prints it (01-06, 6E, 7B, 7C, 08, 8A, 09, 10), decoded from district_subscript by the loader. Null on the two dockets whose subscript is 00. |
| Oil Annual Report Field Table | district |
RRC district the record belongs to, written the way RRC prints it (01-06, 6E, 7B, 7C, 08, 8A, 09, 10). |
| Oil & Gas Field Name & Numbers | district |
The district as RRC PRINTS it: 01-06, 6E, 7B, 7C, 08, 8A, 09, 10. The file writes the three-character form 07B, 08A and 06E; the loader drops the leading zero before a letter, reversibly, because texas.fl_field.district_name, texas.field_rules_field.district_code and PDQ all store the unpadded spelling and a column carrying the file's would join to nothing. Numeric districts are untouched. District 6E appears exactly ONCE in 65,826 rows (field 27302001, EAST TEXAS); 8B, which the manual reserves, appears not at all. |
| Oil & Gas Field Rules | district_code |
The district as RRC prints it, decoded from district_id. This is the one to filter and join on. |
| Oil Well Status (26 Month W-10) | district |
RRC district the well is in, written the way RRC prints it: 01-06, 6E, 7B, 7C, 08, 8A, 09, 10. Not the internal number PDQ uses in district_no — join to PDQ on district_name. |
| P-18 Skim Oil / Condensate Report | district |
The district the well is in, in the printed spelling. Clean here, unlike the same-named column on p18_lha: every non-null value is a real district designation. |
| P-18 Skim Oil / Condensate Report | district_code |
The district designation split out of `system_serial_number` by EZRRC -- 01-06, 6E, 7B, 7C, 08, 8A, 09, 10. NULL on 6,265 of the 45,825 filings, where the system is identified by a bare facility key ('793082') instead of a district-serial pair. District 08 is 19,537 filings, which is the Permian doing what the Permian does. |
| R-3 Gas Processing Plants (EBCDIC, retired) | district_code |
The district as RRC prints it -- 01-06, 7B, 7C, 08, 8A, 09, 10 -- derived by EZRRC from the tape's internal number. Null on the 46 roots whose internal number is 20, which no conversion table covers. This is the spelling every other RRC product uses, including the JSON successor. |
| R-3 Gas Processing Plants (JSON) | district_code |
The district designation split out of `serial_number` by EZRRC -- 01-06, 7B, 7C, 08, 8A, 09, 10. The printed spelling, not the internal number the retired tape keys on. `district_reported` beside it is what the filer selected, which agrees on all but a handful. |
| RRC Oil / ICE Inspections (Every Inspection) | district |
The RRC completion district of the assigned oil lease or gas well ID at the time of the inspection, written the way RRC prints it (01-06, 6E, 7B, 7C, 08, 8A, 09, 10). Where the inspected site has no assigned lease or well ID, it is instead the Oil & Gas district the site sits in. Not the same question as the office that sent the inspector. |
| RRC Oil / ICE Violations | district |
The RRC completion district of the assigned oil lease or gas well ID at the time of the inspection, written the way RRC prints it (01-06, 6E, 7B, 7C, 08, 8A, 09, 10). Where the inspected site has no assigned lease or well ID, it is instead the Oil & Gas district the site sits in. Not the same question as the office that sent the inspector. |
| ST-1 Application Report | district_nbr |
RRC district. |
| Statewide Field Data | district_name |
The same district written the way RRC prints it and the way the ledgers, the W-10 and PDQ's district_name write it: 01-06, 6E, 7B, 7C, 08, 8A, 09, 10. Derived on load from district_no by the table the manual prints at p. 2-3, so it is a label, not a code the tape carries. District 6E holds exactly one field. |
