Establishes the Commercial Solar Facility Decommissioning Act in Oklahoma, detailing obligations for solar power facility removal and restoration.

The Commercial Solar Facility Decommissioning Act mandates that grantees, who lease land for solar power facilities, must remove these facilities and restore the property upon decommissioning. The grantee is responsible for removing solar energy devices, transformers, and substations, and ensuring the land is returned to its original condition. The agreement must include provisions for financial assurance, such as a bond or letter of credit, to cover removal costs. The landowner can request the removal of roads and filling of cavities.
