| Agency | Form: (02) 400049359 05/03/2010 | 1) Provide 24 hour notice of MIRU to Bo Brown at 970-330-6085 or e-mail at bo.brown@state.co.us. 2) Comply with Rule 317.i and provide cement coverage from TD to a minimum of 200' above Niobrara and from 200’ below Sussex to 200’ above Sussex. Verify coverage with cement bond log. 3) Comply with Rule 321. Run and submit Directional Survey from TD to base of surface casing. Ensure that the wellbore complies with setback requirements in commission orders or rules prior to producing the well. |
| Engineer | Form: (06) 401947583 03/21/2019 | 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.

| Engineer | Form: (06) 401947583 03/21/2019 | Operator shall implement measures to control venting, 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 welfare.
|
| Engineer | Form: (06) 401947583 03/21/2019 | 1) Provide 48 hour notice of plugging MIRU via electronic Form 42.
2) Properly abandon flowlines per Rule 1105. File electronic Form 42 once abandonment of on-location flowlines complete. Within 30 days of an operator completing abandonment requirements for an off-location flowline or crude oil transfer line the operator must submit a Flowline Report, Form 44.

| OGLA | Form: (06) 403501449 09/13/2023 | COA's provided by the operator as Best Management Practices under Technical Detail / Comments:
Signage for P&As:
Prior to commencing operations, KMG will post signs in conspicuous locations. The signs will indicate plugging and abandonment operations are being conducted, the well name, well, and the Operator’s contact information. Signs will be placed so as not to create a potential traffic hazard.
Notifications:
Courtesy notifications will be sent to all parcel owners with building units within 1,500 feet of the location letting them know about out plugging and abandonment operations and providing contact information for Kerr McGee's response line and online resources.
Noise:
Operations will be in compliance with Table 423-1 requirements. Based off the rig sound signature, rig orientation will be considered to reduce noise levels to nearby building units. |
| OGLA | Form: (06) 403501449 09/13/2023 | Due to proximity to a mapped wetland and surface water, operator will use secondary containment for all tanks and other liquid containers. Operator will implement stormwater BMPs and erosion control measures as needed to prevent sediment and stormwater runoff from entering the wetland and surface water. |
| Engineer | Form: (06) 403501449 09/18/2023 | 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 ECMC within three (3) months of collecting the samples.
If there is a need for sampling, contact ECMC engineering for verification of plugging procedure.

| Engineer | Form: (06) 403501449 09/18/2023 | 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 (approximately 1290’) : verify that all fluid (liquid and gas) migration has been eliminated. If evidence of fluid migration or pressure remains, contact ECMC 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 609’ 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.
|
| Engineer | Form: (06) 403501449 09/18/2023 | Consistent with Rule 911.a, a Form 27 must be approved prior to cut and cap, conducting flowline abandonment, or removing production equipment. Allow 30 days for Director review of the Form 27; include the Form 27 document number on the Form 44 for offsite flowline abandonment (if applicable) and on the Form 6 Subsequent.
Properly abandon flowlines per Rule 1105. If flowlines will be abandoned in place, include with the Form 27: pressure test results conducted in the prior 12 months as well as identification of any document numbers for a ECMC Spill/Release Report, Form 19, associated with the abandoned line.
