Notice to Waste Haulers

Waste Hauler Forms WH-1, WH-2 and WH-3 Online Filing Available

April 2025, Waste Haulers can submit the following forms online to the Railroad Commission of
Texas (RRC) using the Railroad Commission State Tracking and Reporting (LoneSTAR) portal:

• Form WH-1, Application for Oil and Gas Waste Hauler's Permit,
• Form WH-2, Oil and Gas Waste Hauler's List of Vehicles, and
• Form WH-3, Oil and Gas Waste Hauler's Authority to Use Approved Disposal/Injection
  System.

Waste Haulers and operators, who are authenticated users, can log into LoneSTAR to submit
the forms and upload other documents for review and approval by the RRC. To become an
authenticated user, you must request access to the RRC Access Management Process (RAMP)
through your organization’s Delegated Administrator. Each organization must designate at least
one Delegated Administrator to manage their LoneSTAR authenticated users. To become a
Delegated Administrator, visit the RRC website at https://www.rrc.texas.gov/apps/rrc-ramp/.

Please note that Forms WH-1, WH-2, and WH-3 cannot be filed online if there is not an active
Organization Report (Form P-5) on file with the RRC. Also, note that the RRC is only issuing
Waste Hauler permits for vehicles with current vehicle registrations. For vehicle trailers
registered in Texas, this information is validated through the Texas Department of Motor
Vehicles (TXDMV). For vehicle trailers registered in other states, a copy of the current vehicle
registration must be uploaded into LoneSTAR.

Upon submitting Forms WH-1, WH-2, and WH-3 online, LoneSTAR will generate a print-friendly
PDF. All submissions will be available to view in the online system. Fees must be paid through
the online portal accessed through LoneSTAR when filing online.

The RRC will continue to accept hard copy filings of Forms WH-1, WH-2, and WH-3 through
July 1, 2025. However, operators are strongly encouraged to file online for efficient and timely
filing. On and after July 1, 2025, these forms must be filed online through LoneSTAR.
