Amend CSSB 1 in Article XI of the bill by adding the following
rider following the Article XI items for The University of Texas at
Austin (house committee printing, page XI-20):
APPROPRIATION FOR STUDY OF EAST TEXAS OIL FIELDS. Contingent
on certification by the comptroller that a study made of the East
Texas Oil Field by the Bureau of Economic Geology for the purpose of
determining measures to be taken to maximize the recovery of the
remaining oil and gas in the field would generate sufficient
revenue for the state to justify the cost of the study, the amount
of $2.2 million is appropriated out of the general revenue fund to
The University of Texas at Austin for use by the Bureau of Economic
Geology during the state fiscal biennium beginning September 1,
2005, for the purpose of conducting the study.
