STORMWATER MANAGEMENT PRACTICES
Reference COGCC Final Rule Amendment (December 17, 2005)
1002. SITE PREPARATION; f. Stormwater Management A. thru F.
RUNNING FOXES PETROLEUM, INC. (RFP) will implement the following procedures and practices to remove /reduce the possibility of
discharged materials that may pollute water runoff from their field facilities, operations and well site locations. These procedures and practices, will minimize the potential of any discharge or spill that could potentially pollute surface water and any stormwater runoff.
A. Covering materials and activities:
RFP will cover with tarps all containers /items that have the potential for material leakage. These items, whenever possible, will be kept in a central location within the operational area.
B. Material handling and shill prevention:
RFP will use secondary containment methods, tarps, splash pans,
or appropriate prevention items when transferring, pouring, or
handling items that have the potential for spills. If items are on location for a period of time they will be on pallets off the ground.
C. Erosion controls:
RFP maintains and constructs well pads to minimize surface grade
elevations. As season and weather changes; improvements to these
well pads are adjusted accordingly. Roads, culverts, stream crossings and cut/fill slopes are prepared for runoff to be controlled and directed to desired locations.
These controls will be constructed with the cooperation of the
landowner to facilitate their use of the land. Interim reclamation on well pads is accomplished as soon as possible to minimize the effects of erosion. Topsoil will be returned and reseeding will be completed.
A Self- inspection, maintenance, and good housekeeping:
RFP has a pumper on location almost everyday to identify these
factors. Site improvement and inspection is a constant factor and
monitored with the anticipation of the season and the weather. As
potential contaminants are no longer needed at a set location they are removed and disposed of or stored in a more central secured monitored area. All vehicle washing is done off site.
E. Spill response procedures:
RFP has a first response the standard dirt and shovel work; if the procedures described in B above don't initially contain the spill. This soil is removed from any surface water condition.
F. Vehicle tracking control procedures:
RFP attempts to design and maintain all roads to minimize any
rutting. All operational and access roads are on non -paved roads
with low potential of sediment contributing to stormwater
contaimination.

Stormwater Discharges Associated with Construction Certification No. COR031825
Prior to construction, perimeter controls will be installed utilizing cuttings from the clraring operations.
Once the well pad has been constructed a variety of BMP's shall be utilized for the site specific
constidions. BMP's to be utilized may include, but are not limited to:
-Dirt Ditch/Berm
-Erosion Control Blankets
-Straw Bale Barrier
-Straw Wattles
-Seeding
-Imported hard Armor
-Check Dams
-Culvert/Culvert protection
-Crimped Straw
-Silt Fence
-Surface Roughtening/Surface Rip
During construction, each site will be inspected every 14 days and 24-72 hours after any precipitation
event causing erosion depending on the current site activities. These inspections will be recorded and
maintained on Nighthawk's Stormwater Database/Website.
Repairs shall be completed as soon as possible after an inspection reporting BMP repairs are required.
Any site specific modifications will be revised on the site plan when implemented at the site.
A field wide Stormwater Management Plan (SWMP) for the Jolly Ranch Project Area is located at
Nighthawk's office and can be obtained from Nighthawk's stormwater website.
Spill Portection Control and Countermeasures (SPCC) plans for the Jolly Ranch Project Area are stored on
file at Nightawk's office. The field wide SWMP addresses SPCC during construction operations. |
