The mission of the Texas Land & Mineral Owners Association is to protect and enhance the property and mineral rights of all Texans.

Its formation is a reflection of a very significant deterioration in those rights as a result of political trends, regulatory and legislative actions, and court decisions. 

As we take Legislative action, your active membership is vitally important to advancing the rights of surface and royalty owners in Texas!

Membership in the Association is open only to individuals and entities (including trusts, associations, partnerships, sole proprietorships, and corporations) who own legal, beneficial, or other title to, or who actively manage, fee, surface, mineral, or royalty interests in Texas lands, other than lands used primarily for vacation or residential purposes.

Membership is not open to individuals or entities who own working interest in oil and gas production.

We encourage you to join once as a group/ranch/organization and once individually to increase the size of the voting membership.

By joining you will help us to achieve accurate royalty payments, preserve the water table under your land from oil field pollution, and limit oil field and pipeline activity which reduces the value of your land without fair compensation or remediation.  You also can participate in direct contact with Legislators and Railroad Commissioners on our issues, receive a quarterly newsletter, attend meetings in most parts of the state, and receive educational material and information from events across Texas that affect you.

Upon request, the TLMA Oil and Gas Lease Form is available to any member in good standing in at least their second year of membership in TLMA or upon acceptance as a member of TLMA at the $250 level or greater in the first year of membership.

Also upon request, the TLMA Seismic White Paper and permits are available to any member in good standing in at least their second year of membership in TLMA or upon acceptance as a member of TLMA at the $250 level or greater in the first year of membership.

If you have additional questions about membership contact our Membership Coordinator directly at membership@tlma.org.
