About this source

Pennsylvania DCNR Bureau of Forestry. State forest + park boundaries + O&G infrastructure on state forest land. - searchOilGasInfrastructure ⭐ Pads (~941) + Pipelines (~762). Reframed from spec searchStateForestLeases. - searchStateForests (661 polys / 20 districts), getServiceInfo upstream quirks: DCNR does NOT publish state-forest mineral leases as Feature Service — lessee data is PDF-only. Method reframed against BOF/OilGasInfrastructure (the geometry of leased activity). Pad_Type / Status / Pipeline_Type are SmallInteger codes — decoded via published domains. Status 10=Active / 4=construction complete / 7=reclaimed; Pad_Type 1=gas well / 4=compressor / 10=Monitoring; Pipeline_Type 1=Gathering / 6=Trunk. Pads layer has NO operator (Pipelines does).
