COGIS - Conditions of Approval Results

Type	Source Document	Conditions of Approval
Engineer	Form: (02 ) 400184520 7/28/2011	1) Provide 24 hour notice of MIRU to Jim Precup at 303-469-1902 or e-mail at james.precup@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.
OGLA	Form: (06 ) 403619077 12/21/2023	COAs provided by Operator on the Submit Tab: 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 ) 403619077 12/21/2023	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 the proximity of residential building units (RBUs) all blowdown gasses will be controlled.
Engineer	Form: (06 ) 403619077 12/26/2023	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.
Engineer	Form: (06 ) 403619077 12/26/2023	For Wells with known Bradenhead pressures: 1) Provide 2 business day notice of plugging MIRU via electronic Form 42, and provide 48 hours Notice of Plugging Operations, prior to mobilizing for plugging operations via electronic Form 42. These are 2 separate notifications, required by Rules 408.e and 408.I. 2) After placing the shallowest hydrocarbon isolating plug (2450'), operator must wait a sufficient time to confirm static conditions. 3) After placing plug at 2450’ assure that all fluid migration has been eliminated by monitoring the well for a minimum of 8 hours before proceeding to the next plug. If at any time after placing this plug there is evidence of pressure or of fluid migration, contact ECMC engineering before continuing operations. 4) Prior to placing the 2050’ plug: verify that all fluid migration (liquid or gas) has been eliminated. If evidence of fluid migration or pressure remains, contact ECMC Engineer for an update to plugging orders. 5) After isolation has been verified, pump plug and displace. If cement is not circulated to surface, shut-in, WOC 4 hours then tag plug – must be at 1204’ or shallower and provide at least 10 sx plug at the surface. 6) After cut and prior to cap, verify isolation by either a 15 minute bubble test or 15 minute optical gas imaging recording. If there is indication of flow contact ECMC Engineering. Provide a statement on the 6SRA which method was used and what was observed. Retain records of final isolation test for 5 years.
Engineer	Form: (04 ) 403646194 2/23/2024	Well last produced October 2020, and has been designated as Inactive. Within 6 months of a Well becoming Inactive action must be taken. No later than March 31, 2024, this well must: A. Be plugged and Abandoned, B. Return to production so that it is no longer an Inactive Well, C. Have an approved Form 5B, Inactive Well Notice, or D. Be designated as Out of Service by submitting a Form 6A, Out of Service Designation.

COGIS - Best Management Practice Results

BMP Type	Source Document	Best Management Practices
General Housekeeping	Form: (02 ) 400184520 8/17/2011	Housekeeping will consist of neat and orderly storage of materials and fluids. Wastes will be temporarily stored in sealed containers and regularly collected and disposed of at offsite, suitable facilities. If spills occur prompt cleanup is required to minimize any commingling of waste materials with stormwater runoff. Routine maintenance will be limited to fueling and lubrication of equipment. Drip pans will be used during routine fueling and maintenance to contain spills or leaks. Any waste product from maintenance will be containerized and transported offsite for disposal or recycling. There will be no major equipment overhauls conducted onsite. Equipment will be transported offsite for major overhauls. Cleanup of trash and discarded materials will be conducted at the end of each work day. Cleanup will consist of patrolling the roadway, access areas, and other work areas to pickup trash, scrap debris, other discarded materials, and any contaminated soil. These materials will be disposed of properly.
Storm Water/Erosion Control	Form: (02 ) 400184520 8/17/2011	Stormwater management plans (SWMP) are in place to address construction, drilling and operations associated with Oil & Gas development throughout the state of Colorado in accordance with Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) General Permit No. COR-038637. BMP's will be constructed around the perimeter of the site prior to, or at the beginning of construction. BMP's used will vary according to the location, and will remain in place until the pad reaches final reclamation.
Material Handling and Spill Prevention	Form: (02 ) 400184520 8/17/2011	Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasures (SPCC) plans are in place to address any possible spill associated with Oil & Gas operations throughout the state of Colorado in accordance with CFR 112.
Planning	Form: (04 ) 403646194 2/23/2024	Site lighting will be shielded and directed downward and inward toward operations to avoid glare on public roads and nearby Building Units.
Community Outreach and Notification	Form: (04 ) 403646194 2/23/2024	Signs will be placed in conspicuous locations and will include Oxy contact information; the Oxy Stakeholder Relations team will respond to all community member inquiries. The signs will be placed so as not to create a potential traffic hazard.
Community Outreach and Notification	Form: (04 ) 403646194 2/23/2024	Courtesy notifications will be sent to all parcel owners with building units within 2,000 feet of the location letting them know about our subsequent well operations and providing contact information for Kerr McGee’s response line and online resources.
Wildlife	Form: (04 ) 403646194 2/23/2024	This location was reviewed using a desktop method to review publicly available wildlife data (including CPW & ECMC data) as well as internal wildlife datasets and aerial imagery.
