Engineer	Form: (02) 400797392 03/10/2015	1)Operator shall comply with the most current revision of the Northwest Colorado Notification Policy. See attached notice. 2)Operator shall comply with the most current revision of the Garfield County Rulison Field Notice to Operators, with the following exception: all field notice requirements specified in this notice to operators are superseded by the requirements of the most current revision of the Northwest Colorado Notification Policy (see condition of approval #1). See attached notice. 3)Operator shall provide cement coverage from the production casing shoe (4+1/2" FIRST STRING) to a minimum of 200' above all Mesa Verde Group (and Ohio Creek Formation, if present) oil, gas, and water-bearing sandstone and coalbed formations.

COGIS - Best Management Practice Results

BMP Type	Source Document	Best Management Practices
Drilling/Completion Operations	Form: (02 ) 400797392 4/3/2015	Cuttings Management: During drilling, LINN will keep the drill cuttings segregated on the well pad. Cuttings will not be in contact with fill material or topsoil on location. After drilling and completion operations have been completed, soil amendments such as phosphorus and nitrogen will be utilized to expedite the amendment process (if necessary). On pads where a drilling pit is present, cuttings will be used in the backfilling of those pits. On pads where no drilling pit is present due to closed-loop drilling, amended cuttings that meet the Table 910-1 levels are spread on location with topsoil and seeded as part of reclamation activities.
Drilling/Completion Operations	Form: (02 ) 400797392 4/3/2015	Open hole resistivity and gamma logs shall be run to describe the stratigraphy of the entire well bore and to adequately verify the setting depth of surface casing and aquifer coverage. On a multi-well pad, these open hole logs are only required on one of the first wells drilled on the pad and the Drilling Completion Report - Form 5 for every well on the pad shall identify which well was logged.
