We are pleased to present our 2024 ESG Website disclosures, which demonstrate TPLs commitment to sustainable practices throughout our operations. Our ESG disclosure has been informed by the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB), Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), and the Task Force on Climate-Related Disclosures (TCFD) frameworks. The data disclosed in this website covers all of our operations for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024, unless otherwise noted. Given the dynamic nature of ESG priorities and best practices, assessments and reviews of our metrics and disclosure policies will continue to be evaluated and, if necessary, adjusted on a regular basis.
If you have questions or comments, please contact us at IR@texaspacific.com.
Texas Pacifics Core Values act as guiding principles underlying our business conduct and engagement with partners and stakeholders. Since 1888, when Texas Pacific was first established as a land trust, our commitment to long-term success has been dependent on adapting to dynamic market forces and doing what is right for all stakeholders.
Our Core Values align with our strategic and operational priorities, as well as our Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) commitments. Our ESG strategy reflects our dedication to meeting tactical business priorities while managing the environmental impacts of our operations, maintaining principles for social responsibility, and upholding a commitment to strong corporate governance.
TPL is positioned to proactively and holistically manage our ESG risks and opportunities, which in turn provides our communities, stakeholders, stockholders, lessees, and operators with confirmation that our company is prioritizing the necessary items to generate long-term value and support sustainability excellence.
Our ESG strategy is focused on the overarching priorities of environmental management, employee health and safety, workforce management and equality, community and landowner engagement, and strong corporate governance and ethics. We are committed to working towards a sustainable future and operating in a responsible manner across all of our operations and land management activities. We strive to uphold the highest standards of ethics, transparency, and accountability, and we foster the safe and responsible development of our lands.
As TPL does not produce oil or gas from the land from which our royalty revenue stream is derived, we developed our sustainability goals and partnership opportunities in consultation with the entities operating on those lands. We maintain strong relationships with these operators to encourage environmental best practices as it relates to their specific infrastructure and operational requirements. In our Water Services and Operations segment, we have developed a tailored ESG program that speaks to the ethical and responsible buildout of our water assets and management of water as a natural resource. Our continued goal is an integrated and iterative approach to sustainable and responsible resource management.
TPL continues to partner with an external ESG consulting firm to independently assess our operations, business practices and procedures, and cultural enablers. This allows us to identify opportunities to improve processes and incorporate best practices where possible.
We believe effective oversight and implementation of our ESG strategy stems from the involvement of internal stakeholders throughout our business. As such, ESG-related responsibilities are apportioned to various departments and individuals throughout our Company, from upper leadership to entry-level employees. Our ESG internal oversight framework is comprised of leadership and employee subject-matter experts to ensure we remain ahead of the latest trends and developments in ESG and sustainability.
Beginning at the executive level, TPLs ESG Leadership Committee provides critical oversight and direction regarding our ESG and sustainability business strategies. Additionally, our ESG Working Committee, comprised of our cross-functional subject matter experts, offers division-specific knowledge and accountability related to the ongoing development and evaluation of our initiatives. Both of these groups play a critical role in the oversight and implementation of TPLs ESG strategy. For additional details on the responsibilities of each group, refer to Managements Role in Assessing and Managing Climate Risks and Opportunities.
