Free. You will be asked to confirm an email address before the files are built — that is the only gate, and it is there so we can tell you when a large export is ready.

What this is

The paperwork itself: scanned images of the Form W-1 applications and the survey plats attached to them, published nightly as PDFs.

This is where the information that never made it into a structured field lives — the hand-drawn plat, the operator's remarks, the signature blocks.

What you can do with it

Read the original filing when the structured record is ambiguous, and recover the plat geometry for a well whose coordinates look wrong.

Gotchas

These are images. There is no text layer to search and no record layout — everything useful in them has to be read by a person or run through OCR.

There will be no decoded version of this. It is not a file format waiting for a reader -- it is pictures of paper, and the only ways to get fields out of it are a person reading them or an OCR pass whose output would be guesses this site will not present as data. What EZRRC adds here is the mirror itself: the Commission's own images, addressable and durable.

Record layout
