Sec. 111.139. REPORTS. (a) The commission shall require each common carrier to make reports including duly verified monthly reports of:
(1) the total quantities of crude petroleum owned by the common carrier in the state;
(2) the total quantities of crude petroleum held by the common carrier in storage for others in the state; and
(3) the common carrier's unfilled storage capacity.
(b) The commission shall give no publicity to the stock of crude petroleum on hand of any particular common carrier, but the commission may, in its discretion, make public the aggregate amounts held by all common carriers making reports and their aggregate storage capacity.
(c) The commission shall require each common carrier to mail, return receipt requested, a copy of all spill or leak reports required by the commission to residents or owners of land upon which a spill or leak has occurred within 30 days of filing the report with the commission. If a resident or owner of land has not registered with the commission, the common carrier is relieved of the requirement to mail copies of spill or leak reports to the resident or landowner. The commission shall provide a procedure for residents and owners of land crossed by a common carrier pipeline to voluntarily register their names and mailing addresses with the commission.
