Screen

The filed record for one Texas parcel, compiled from the monitored public dockets and closed at a stated timestamp. Every line cited.

What this does
  • Criterion I — Filed Transmission Projects and Filed Study Megawatts: read today and stated as a refusal with its reason, not as a finding.
  • Criterion II — Groundwater Production for the Class of Use: read today and stated as a refusal with its reason, not as a finding.
  • Criterion III — Retail Water and Sewer Service Boundaries: applied today, and states whether a record was identified under it.
  • Criterion IV — Reported Flow against Permitted Flow: read today and stated as a refusal with its reason, not as a finding.
  • The Extract carries no status and no score. It states, criterion by criterion, whether a record was identified in the monitored dockets, names every record relied on, and closes with the Publisher’s view.

A criterion states that a record was or was not identified under it, in the monitored dockets, as of the stated timestamp. That is a fact about the filed record on that date, not a prediction and not a verdict on the parcel; a re-screen on a later date is a separate Screen.

What you receive

An Extract drawn from the monitored dockets as of a stated timestamp, naming every record relied on. It states, criterion by criterion, whether a record was identified in the monitored dockets, names every record relied on, and closes with the Publisher’s view.

One parcel, one Extract. It is issued as of its own date and is not re-issued; a later date is a separate Screen.

  • Every criterion applied, each cited to the primary document; a criterion the run cannot reach stated as a refusal with its reason.
  • A negative scope naming what the Extract did not read.
  • Reviewed by the Publisher before release, and issued over the Publisher’s line.
What it is not
  • No thermal, headroom, or capacity calculation; no dropout rate assumed and no months estimated.
  • No engineering opinion of any kind. Retain licensed engineering counsel for physical feasibility.
  • Installed transformer capacity is not in the public record and is not assessed. A funded or securitized study status is not published and is not inferred.
  • Nothing in a Screen is a finding that a parcel is developable, or that power, water, or wastewater service is or will be available.
  • Off-docket, municipal, cooperative, and unindexed district sources are not examined.
  • Issued to the requesting party only. A person who is not the requesting party may not rely on it, and any professional opinion built on it is that professional’s own.
Specimen

Specimen. On October 30, 2025, Beaten Path Development Acquisitions, LLC petitioned the Public Utility Commission of Texas for streamlined expedited release of approximately 162.927 contiguous acres in Wise County from West Wise Special Utility District’s water CCN No. 10284 (Control No. 58917, Item No. 1). The Extract below is drawn from that public record. No request exists for it, no review of the parcel has been performed, and it states nothing about the fitness of the tract.

The record examined

Gross filed queue

The ERCOT Large Load Interconnection Status Update of June 18, 2026 is on file for this run. It states 8,927 MW that have received Approval to Energize, an observed non-simultaneous monthly peak consumption of 3,900 MW and an observed simultaneous monthly peak consumption of 3,675 MW in June 2026, each at system total, and it defines six stages from “No Studies Submitted” to “Observed Energized”. It publishes its distributions by load zone and by transmission service provider as charts that state no figures, so no filed large-load study megawatts can be read for ERCOT North or for Oncor and the second limb of the criterion cannot be evaluated. This criterion was not applied, and no statement is made about it in either direction.

Not applied. ERCOT Large Load Interconnection Status Update to the Large Load Working Group, ERCOT Large Load Interconnection Status Update, June 19, 2026; data current as of June 18, 2026, as of 2026-06-18. https://www.ercot.com/files/docs/2026/06/18/June-19-LLWG-Report.pptx, slides 4, 7, 8, 9, 11, 15 and 16.

Filed projects at the serving substation

The ERCOT Transmission Project and Information Tracking workbook of July 17, 2026, carrying the transmission owner submission base of July 13, 2026, is on file for this run, and its two county columns — county location for the substation or starting point, and county location for the ending point — were searched across all four project sheets. One filed project names Wise County: ERCOT Project No. 66492C, “Chico West - Grindstone Switch 69 kV Line rebuild”, transmission owner ONCOR, Planning Charter Tier 4, terminals Jacksboro Amoco to Chico City Services, transmission status “Planned”, projected in-service September 15, 2027, ending-point county Wise. No serving substation is resolved for the tract, so the criterion has no substation to look the workbook up against. This criterion was not applied, and no statement is made about it in either direction.

Water

The tract lies inside West Wise Special Utility District's water CCN No. 10284. A petition for streamlined expedited release of approximately 162.927 contiguous acres under Tex. Water Code section 13.2541 was filed on October 30, 2025 by Beaten Path Development Acquisitions, LLC. On February 26, 2026 the Commission’s Office of Policy and Docket Management filed a notice of approval making a determination on compensation — PUCT Control No. 58917, Item No. 10.

Groundwater

The tract lies inside the Upper Trinity Groundwater Conservation District, whose district rules for Hood, Montague, Parker and Wise Counties were adopted August 27, 2026. The annual production allowable per contiguous controlled acre for the Trinity Aquifer Group is set at Rule 5.2(d), p. 65. The register records no moratorium on new non-exempt permits in those rules. Until the class-of-use input is ruled, criterion II refuses inside every district and states no finding.

Wastewater

The wastewater registers were searched for a retail sewer utility whose filed CCN boundary covers the tract as of 2026-09-15, and no permitted average daily flow was on the record read. With no permitted average daily flow on the record, the ratio at 30 TAC section 305.126 cannot be formed; this criterion was not applied, and no statement is made about it in either direction.

Negative scope

This Extract reports only what is on file in the dockets named on its face, as of the timestamp stated above. Nothing on this page is a finding that a parcel is developable, or that power, water, or wastewater service is or will be available. It performs no thermal, headroom, or capacity calculation, assumes no dropout rate, estimates no months, states no probability, and renders no engineering opinion. Installed transformer capacity is not in the public record and is not assessed. A funded or securitized study status is not published and is not inferred. Off-docket, municipal, cooperative, and unindexed district sources are not examined. Retain licensed engineering counsel for physical feasibility.

This compilation isolates the existence of restrictive filings in the present record. It does not forecast the timeline, capital cost, or probability of a regulatory cure; those depend on engineering design, utility capitalization, and legal negotiation outside the filed public record.

Issued to the party who requests it and to no other person. No other person may rely on it, and reliance is not transferred with the parcel, the loan file, or the assignment. Anyone else who requires a record of its own places its own request in its own name.

A later record of this parcel is a new request: a bring-down re-runs this Screen to a later timestamp and is issued as of its own date. It does not re-issue, re-affirm or extend this Extract, which continues to speak only as of the date on its face.

Excluded, off-docket and non-monitored: Installed transformer capacity (not public) · unindexed MUD executive sessions · non-public letters of intent with electric cooperatives · private bilateral water leases under rule of capture · any communication not entered on a monitored docket. Monitored dockets and rules: /therecord.

What the Publisher reads it to mean

Read together, the rows above describe a tract whose water position is in motion on the docket rather than settled: the holder of record is West Wise Special Utility District, and a streamlined expedited release of the tract from water CCN No. 10284 has been sought and has reached the compensation stage. On the filed record as of the timestamp above, the Publisher reads this as a tract whose serving water utility may not be its serving water utility by the time a deposit hardens, and reads the three refusing criteria as unread ground rather than clear ground. On power the registers themselves have now been read and the refusal sits on this side of the line: the workbook names one Wise County project and the Large Load Interconnection Status Report publishes nothing at the tract’s load zone or transmission service provider, so what is missing is the tract’s own serving substation, not the docket. A buyer who needs power, groundwater or wastewater answered needs that resolution and those remaining registers read, not this Extract. specimen

Where an Extract states the Publisher’s view, that view is the Publisher’s own reading of the filed record as of the timestamp stated on its face; it is not an engineering opinion, not a certification that the parcel is fit to close on, and not a rating or score. It is not legal advice, not a title opinion and not an appraisal, and it is not a substitute for the licensed professionals named in the scope.

Request
A request charges nothing and opens nothing. Oquendo & Company answers in writing, and the Extract is delivered by 5:00 p.m. Central on the second business day after the request is accepted. A contract forms when that written acceptance is sent, and it states the fee and the timestamp the Extract will close at. What a Screen does not do is stated above, under what it is not.

The class of use. The groundwater production criterion is answered against the class of use the parcel is intended for, and refuses where none is stated, so the request asks for one from a closed list. It is recorded and printed as your statement, never as a finding here, and nothing in the Extract tests whether the parcel can be put to it.

A bring-down. Where a Screen has already been delivered on this parcel, name it in the field above and the request is a bring-down: the same Screen re-run to a later timestamp, citing the prior Extract by its reference. It is a new record, issued as of its own date, and it does not re-issue or extend the Extract it cites. It adds no scope. The fee for a bring-down is $750, stated again in the written acceptance.

Oquendo & Company, a Texas limited liability company.
“You”
The person or entity using this Site, and, where a request has been placed, the person or entity placing the request.
“Site”
This public website and everything the Company makes available on it.

1Acceptance & Scope

These Terms of Use (the “Terms”) govern your access to and use of this public website and all content, records, compilations, editions, and marks the Company makes available on it (collectively, the “Site”), provided by Oquendo & Company (the “Company”). By accessing or using the Site, you agree to these Terms; if you do not agree, do not use the Site. You represent that you are at least 18 years old.

These Terms govern use of the public Site only. Any paid request is offered solely under a separate written agreement furnished at the time of the request. Nothing on the Site is an offer to contract and nothing here entitles you to, or forms a contract for, any request.

2Nature of the Site — Statements of Opinion

Oquendo & Company compiles the Texas Infrastructure Ledger — dated compilations of the filed public record — and applies to them deterministic criteria published in advance at /therecord. Each Extract the Company issues states only what was on file with a named authority as of a stated timestamp, cites the primary document, and carries its exclusions on its face. No Extract the Company issues states, estimates, or implies the physical capacity, headroom, thermal rating, or deliverability of any facility or system, and no Extract the Company issues states when service will be available. No Extract the Company issues is financial, investment, engineering, insurance, legal, or other professional advice, nor a recommendation to take or refrain from any action, and they are not a guarantee, warranty, or assurance of any outcome, condition, or future performance.

The Company’s records are produced with the material assistance of an automated system, and findings are determined by the deterministic rules published at /therecord.

3No Reliance

Each record reflects information on file as of its stated date and may change without notice. Each is issued for general information only.

This provision governs the public Site and its published records. A report issued under a paid request is a separate publication, issued to the party who requests it on the terms of the agreement for that request; its scope of reliance is stated in Standing & Reliance.

4Corrections

If the Company identifies an error in the public record it cited, the Company may publish a corrected edition speaking as of a new stated date. A correction is a re-publication, not a revision of what came before: each edition speaks only as of its own date. Nothing in this creates a duty to monitor, update, or supplement any edition the Company has already issued.

5License & Intellectual Property

The Site, including all text, records, methodologies, compilations, and marks, is owned by Oquendo & Company and protected by intellectual-property and trade-secret law.

6Acceptable Use

You agree not to (a) access the Site by automated means except a conforming search-engine crawler; (b) interfere with or probe the Site’s security or infrastructure; (c) misrepresent any record or strip it of its date, context, or disclaimers; or (d) use the Site in violation of any law.

7Disclaimer of Warranties

8Limitation of Liability

This Section governs the public Site. Liability for a paid request is governed by the agreement for that request. Nothing in this Section limits liability that cannot be limited under Texas law, including under Tex. Bus. & Com. Code ch. 17.

9Governing Law & Venue

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. Subject to Section 10, the exclusive venue for any dispute is the state or federal courts located in Texas, and you consent to their personal jurisdiction.

10Dispute Resolution — Arbitration & Class Waiver

11Changes

The Company may modify these Terms by posting a revised version bearing a new version identifier and effective date. A revision applies only prospectively; your continued use of the Site after the stated effective date constitutes acceptance of the revised version. The Company retains each superseded version and will furnish it on request.

12General

If any provision is held unenforceable, the remainder stays in effect and the unenforceable provision is reformed to the minimum extent necessary. These Terms are the entire agreement regarding the Site and supersede prior understandings. No waiver is implied by any failure to enforce. You may not assign these Terms; the Company may. The disclaimers and limitations survive termination.

Standing & Reliance

Definitions

“the Company,” “Oquendo & Company”
Oquendo & Company, a Texas limited liability company.
“You”
The person or entity placing the request, and, where no request has been placed, the reader of what the Company publishes.

1What the Company Publishes

Oquendo & Company is an independent compiler of the filed public record. What the Company issues is an opinion of record, carrying an as-of date — not a statement of fact, not advice, and not a guarantee of any outcome.

2The published record — no reliance

The Register and the sealed editions are published for general reference. They are not addressed to any person and are not issued for reliance; each edition speaks only as of its date. You may cite an edition; you act on it at your own discretion.

3The Screen and the Monitor — scope of reliance

A Screen is a compilation of the filed public record on one parcel, issued to the party who requests it and to no other person, under the Screen Terms in force at the time it is requested. Its findings are limited to the dockets enumerated on its face as of the stated timestamp. “No record identified under this criterion” is not a finding that a parcel is developable, serviceable, or capable of receiving any quantity of electric power, water, or wastewater service; it is a finding that the enumerated dockets contained no record meeting that criterion. Where an Extract states the Publisher’s view, that view is the Publisher’s own reading of the filed record as of the timestamp stated on its face; it is not an engineering opinion, not a certification that the parcel is fit to close on, and not a rating or score. It is not legal advice, not a title opinion and not an appraisal, and it is not a substitute for the licensed professionals named in the scope. Physical feasibility is the subject of licensed professional engineering, which this firm does not provide and no Extract the Company issues supplies.

4Corrections

Where the record is corrected, the correction is published in the Company’s corrections register, which is permanent — entries are never removed or rewritten, under the correction policy, which also states where a request for correction, clarification or retraction is received. An edition you have cited may later be the subject of an entry there; the register states what the record said, what it now says, and the range of citation dates affected, so a citation can be checked at any time against the record as it now stands.

5Methodology & Agreements

The Company’s methodology is sealed. What the Company discloses is the public record it consulted, dated, and the finding it reached by applying the published rules to it. Everything the Company issues or delivers is governed by the applicable written agreement.

6Litigation and subpoenas

This section states the practice of Oquendo & Company where something it has published becomes evidence in a proceeding. It is a statement of the Company’s own practice; it is not legal advice, and the rules of evidence and procedure govern over anything said here.

1No engagement as a witness

Oquendo & Company does not accept engagement as an expert witness or consultant. No person here is offered, retained, designated, or held out as an expert in any proceeding, in any forum, for any party, and no Extract the Company issues is prepared in contemplation of testimony. Where a court of competent jurisdiction compels the attendance or testimony of a custodian of records, the Company complies with the order and testifies only as a fact witness to what the record is and how it is kept; it renders no opinion, and its compliance under compulsion is not an engagement, a designation, or a waiver of any objection.

2Authentication is by affidavit

Records of Oquendo & Company are authenticated solely by business-records affidavit under Texas Rules of Evidence 902(10) and 803(6). The affidavit states what the record is, how it is kept, and that it was made and kept in the regular course of the Company’s activity. Authentication by affidavit is available on the terms Rule 902(10) sets, including its filing and notice requirements; nothing here limits a court’s authority to require more.

2aRecords retention

Sealed editions, published entries, and the corrections register are retained permanently. Request records, delivered Extracts, and the citations underlying them are retained not less than seven years from delivery. Working files that are not part of a sealed edition are retained not less than two years. Retention is suspended as to any material within the scope of a litigation hold from receipt of the request until the hold is released; no material within a hold is deleted on schedule.

3Where a request is received, and where process is served

Preservation requests, correction requests, and courtesy copies of process are received by email at contact@oquendoandco.com and are treated as received on the business day they arrive. Formal service of a subpoena or citation is made on the registered agent of Oquendo & Company as shown in the records of the Texas Secretary of State, in the manner the rules require. The Company does not consent to service of process by email and does not waive any objection to service, venue, or the form of a request. Requests are handled by Gregory Oquendo, Publisher, who is designated custodian of records.

4The archive is append-only

No record is altered or expunged on request, on payment, on demand, or in settlement. The archive changes only in one direction: an entry found to be wrong receives a correcting entry appended beneath it, and the erroneous entry is preserved and marked withdrawn. The single exception is an order of a court of competent jurisdiction, or a right of erasure the Company is required by statute to honor; where either applies, the Company complies, notes on the record that a removal was ordered, and states the ordering authority and date without restating the removed text. The correction policy states the form every entry takes, and the corrections register carries them all.

5Litigation holds and the cost of production

A litigation hold is placed on receipt of a request that reasonably identifies the parcel, edition, or order at issue and the proceeding, and is limited to material within that scope. No fee is charged for a first request or for preserving material already kept in the ordinary course. A hold is released on written notice from the requesting party, on final disposition of the identified proceeding, or eighteen months after receipt with thirty days’ written notice, whichever is first. Where a later or repeated request requires collection, review, redaction, or custodian time beyond preserving what is already kept, that work is quoted in writing as the reasonable cost of production a non-party may recover, and is paid or secured before the work is undertaken.

6What the record is, and is not

Each Extract the Company issues states what was filed, by whom, and as of when, cites the primary document, and carries the scope it did not examine. It renders no engineering judgment and states no view of what any parcel is worth. The standing of what is published, and who may rely on it, is stated in the sections above.

7The compilation is a trade secret

The selection, combination, and sequencing by which the Company compiles the filed record is a trade secret under Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code §134A.002(6). The primary documents cited in any Extract the Company issues are public and are produced freely. Anything sought beyond the Extract, its citations, and the custodian affidavit — including the manner of acquisition, the internal representation of a register, or the sequencing by which the published rules are applied to the compiled record — will be met with a motion for protective order under §134A.006 and Tex.
