| Spill Description: |
| On December 18, 2016, a release occurred during surface drilling operations when water-based drilling mud overflowed a solids control tank at the JZM 29N-E3HZ well site. Approximately 10 barrels of water-based drilling fluid were released onto the ground surface inside the well pad berm. Drilling operations were stopped and the release volume was recovered for re-use through surface scraping activities. Site assessment activities are summarized in the attached Supplemental Form 19. A topographic Site Map showing the geographic setting of the release is provided as Figure 1. |
