| Spill Description: |
| ON OCTOBER 21, 2016 AT APPROXIMATELY 7:45 AM A SPILL WAS DISCOVERED ON THE LOST CREEK #23 WELL. BASED ON THE INITIAL INSPECTION THE SPILL WAS CAUSED BY A VALVE FAILURE ON THE STOCK TANK WHICH RELEASED THE OIL. MOST OF THE SPILLED OIL WAS CONTAINED WITHIN THE BERM BUT APPROXIMATELY 5 BBLS DID MIGRATE OUTSIDE THE BERM. CORRECTIVE ACTIONS WERE IMMEDIATELY COMMENCED UPON DISCOVERY. RESTORATION WILL CONSIST OF REMOVING ALL OIL AND AFFECTED SOIL IN AND AROUND THE AREA OF IMPACT AND WILL BE HAULED TO A DESIGNATED WASTE DISPOSAL FACILITY. ALL CORRECTIVE ACTIONS WILL BE EXECUTED IN ACCORDANCE WITH STANDARD SPILL REMEDIATION PROCEEDURE. AT THE MOMENT OF THIS NOTICE THE SITUATION HAS BEEN CONTAINED AND IS EXPECTED TO BE RECTIFIED WITHIN THE NEXT 24 HOURS. |
