3/4/2022 | Operator will implement measures to capture, combust, or control emissions to protect health and safety, and to ensure that vapors and odors from well plugging operations do not constitute a nuisance or hazard to public health, welfare and the environment. Due to proximity of building units (BUs) all blowdown gases will be controlled. |

402973375
3/4/2022 | Due to close proximity to Residential Building Units: prior to commencing operations, at a minimum, the operator will provide an informational sheet to the owners/occupants of BUs that are nearby and adjacent to the parcel on which the well is located. The sheet will include the operator's contact information and the nature, timing, and expected duration of the PA operations. |

3/22/2022 | Plugging
1) Provide 48 hour notice of plugging MIRU via electronic Form 42.
2) Contact COGCC Area Inspector prior to commencing plugging operations.
3) Plugs and squeezes will be placed as stated in the Plugging Procedure section of the approved NOIA unless revised by COA or prior approval from COGCC is obtained.
4) The wellbore must be static prior to placing cement plugs which are to be a minimum of 100' in length for all but surface plugs. Mechanical isolation requires a 25' cement plug, minimum. For plugs not specified to be tagged, a tag is required if circulation is not maintained while pumping plug and displacing to depth. Tag at tops specified or shallower. Notify COGCC Area Engineer before adding cement to previous plug.
5) Place a 50' plug (minimum) at the surface, both inside the inner most casing and in all annular spaces. Surface plugs shall be circulated to surface. Confirm cement to surface in all strings during cut and cap.
6) With the Form 6 SRA operator must provide written documentation which positively affirms each COA has been addressed.
7) No current Form 17 on file with COGCC. Contact COGCC area engineer with results of pre-plugging bradenhead test for confirmation of plugging procedure prior to commencing plugging operations.
8) After placing the shallowest hydrocarbon isolating plug (4975'), operator must wait a sufficient time on all subsequent plugs to confirm static conditions. If at any time after placing this plug there is evidence of pressure or of fluid migration, contact COGCC Area Engineer before continuing operations.
9) Properly abandon flowlines as per Rule 1105. Pursuant to Rule 911.a. Closure of Oil and Gas Facilities, Operator will submit Site Investigation and Remediation Workplans via Form 27 for COGCC prior approval before cutting and capping the plugged well, conducting flowline abandonment, and removing production equipment. Pursuant to Rule 1105.f. Abandonment Verification, within 90 days of an operator completing abandonment requirements for a flowline or crude oil transfer line, an operator must submit a Field Operations Notice, Form 42-Abandonment of Flowlines for on-location flowlines, and a Flowline Report, Form 44, for off-location flowlines or crude oil transfer lines.
10) The plugging procedue has been modified as follows,
Plug #1 - 4975', CIBP with 60 sx to bring TOC to 4495', 100' above the D Sand top.
Plug #2 - 3624', 15 sx balanced plug inside casing.
Plug #3 - 760', perf and squeeze 40 sx through the CICR at 710', place 5 sx on top of CICR.
Plug #4 - 410', Perf and pump 120 sx, the intention is to circulate cement to the surface and leave the casing full. WOC and tag required if cement does not reach the surface and remain there.
Plug #5 - See COA #5
11) This well is subject to Corrective Action as specified in Doc #402958947. |

3/22/2022 | Bradenhead Testing
Prior to starting plugging operations a bradenhead test shall be performed if there has not been a reported bradenhead test within the 60 days immediately preceding the start of plugging operations.
1) If, before opening the bradenhead valve, the beginning pressure is greater than 25 psi, sampling is required.
2) If pressure remains at the conclusion of the test, or if any liquids were present during the test, sampling is required.
The Form 17 shall be submitted within 10 days of the test. Sampling shall comply with Operator Guidance - Bradenhead Testing and Reporting Instructions. If samples are collected, copies of all final laboratory analytical results shall be provided to the COGCC within three (3) months of collecting the samples.
If there is a need for sampling, contact COGCC engineering for verification of plugging procedure.
