04/21/2023 | This oil and gas location is within a CPW-mapped bald eagle roost or communal roost Rule 309.e.(1) consultation habitat. CPW may choose to consult on this planned P&A to develop site specific measures to avoid, minimize, and mitigate impacts to wildlife prior to conducting the work. Please note that non-emergency plugging and abandonment (PA) activities should not take place from November 15 to March 15. Please confirm via email if a consultation with CPW has or will occur and provide any operator BMPs that are the result of that consultation. CPW Consultation occurred on 5/10/2023 via email with CPW and the Operator. |

05/15/2023 | 1) Provide electronic Form 42 Notice of MIRU 2 business days ahead of operations and electronic Form 42 Notice of Plugging Operations 48 hours prior to mobilizing for plugging operations. These are two separate notifications, required by Rules 405.e and 405.l.
2) Prior to placing cement above the base of the Upper Pierre (1080') : assure that all fluid migration has been eliminated by monitoring the well for a minimum of 8 hours. If evidence of fluid migration or pressure remains, contact COGCC Engineer for an update to plugging orders.
3) Pump surface casing shoe plug only after isolation has been verified. If surface casing cement is not circulated to surface, shut-in, WOC 4 hours then tag plug – must be at 554’ or shallower and provide a minimum of 10 sx plug at the surface.
4) Leave at least 100’ of cement in the wellbore for each plug without mechanical isolation.
5) With the Form 6 SRA operator must provide written documentation which positively affirms each COA listed above has been addressed. |

05/15/2023 | 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.
