Opinion No. 54-5913

March 8, 1954

BY: RICHARD H. ROBINSON, Attorney General

TO: Mr. E. S. Walker Commissioner of Public Lands Santa Fe, New Mexico

{*354} You have asked the opinion of this office as to whether segregation clauses and unit agreements should be given prospective application only.

This office has considered the authorities submitted by the proponents of prospective application but has concluded that the particular unit agreement involved must govern and that segregation clauses in presently existing unit agreements are valid and are effective according to the terms of those agreements.
