- About WVSORO
  
  Educating you about the rights that you have.
  Working to get you the rights you deserve.
  
  The WV Surface Owners’ Rights Organization (WVSORO) is a statewide membership organization formed in 2007 by concerned landowners, public interest lawyer Dave McMahon and WV Citizen Action Group. We serve as resource for our members and others who are looking for information and guidance on how to deal with oil and gas related activities on their land and in their communities. We also advocate for public policy and regulatory changes that will help surface owners have their rights recognized and respected by the oil and gas drillers and that will help them protect their land, air and water.
  
  Join Us! Click here to print a membership form or e-mail info@wvsoro.org to have a membership packet mailed to you.
  
  Contact us to help us help you educate your legislators about the need to implement the recommendations of the Horizontal Well Act studies and other protections for surface owners. Your personal stories will help make the case for the public policy and regulatory changes needed to protect your land, air and water.
  
  Partial Funding by The Dunn Foundation.
