Sec. 250.143  How do I designate an operator?

    (a) You must provide the Regional Supervisor an executed Designation 
of Operator form unless you are the only lessee and are the only person 
conducting lease operations. When there is more than one lessee, each 
lessee must submit the Designation of Operator form and the Regional 
Supervisor must approve the designation before the designated operator 
may begin operations on the leasehold.
    (b) This designation is authority for the designated operator to act 
on your behalf and to fulfill your obligations under the Act, the lease, 
and the regulations in this part.
    (c) You, or your designated operator, must immediately provide the 
Regional Supervisor a written notification of any change of address.
