  AI summary This amendment replaces the entire bill with a new version called the “Iowa Surface Owners Protection Act.” It establishes rules for oil and gas operations starting July 1, 2026, requiring operators to compensate landowners for damages to land, crops, and property value, and to restore the surface after work is finished. It also requires operators to provide specific notices and proposed agreements to landowners and to maintain financial assurance, such as a bond or letter of credit, to ensure damages can be paid.
