Oil and Gas Lease provisions question about CHLing

NO HUNTING/FIREARMS
There shall be no hunting or fishing allowed on the leased premises, nor shall any firearms be brought on the leased premises by Lessee or its assigns, or by any employee, agent, contractor or representative of Lessee without the prior written consent of the Lessor.

If a provision in a lease (oil and gas or otherwise) states the above paragraph. Where does that leave the CHLer who works for oil company (Lessee)? Does this apply to him unless a 30.06 sign is posted or is he restricted?

IMO, you can get fired but have a defense to prosecution.

some of the leases that I have been on have that on the gate, but I know a lot of the guys that are running as gaugers carry . so like PB&Jelly stated its only a fire able offence if catch I think.

I remember when I was observing our prospect out in Chambers county east of Anuhac about four years ago, I noticed on the other side of the road the entrance to a well area or some kind of land owned or leased by a big company. On the gate it said "No Firearms Allowed (including Concealed Handgun Licence Holders)"
This to me would not apply to CHL holders as it is not a 30.06 posting
