|
| Material Handling and Spill Prevention | Form: (02A ) 400702956 1/12/2015 | Well effluent containing more than ten (10) barrels per day of condensate or within two (2) hours after first encountering hydrocarbon gas of salable quality will be directed to a combination of sand traps, separators, surge vessels, and tanks as needed to ensure safe separation of sand, hydrocarbon liquids, water, and gas and to ensure salable products are efficiently recovered for sale or conserved and that non-salable products are disposed of in a safe and environmentally responsible manner.
|
| Dust control | Form: (02A ) 400702956 1/12/2015 | Per Rule 805.c, Encana shall employ practices for control of fugitive dust caused by operations, such practices to include, but not limited to use of speed restrictions, regular road maintenance, restriction of construction activity during high wind days and silica dust controls when handling sand used in hydraulic fracturing operations. Additional management practices such as road surfacing, wind breaks and barriers, or automation of wells to reduce truck traffic may also be required if technologically feasible and economically reasonable to minimize fugitive dust emissions. |
| Construction | Form: (02A ) 400702956 1/12/2015 | The pad will be constructed in such a manner that noise mitigation may be installed and removed without disturbing the site or landscaping.
|
| Construction | Form: (02A ) 400702956 1/12/2015 | Subject pad will have all weather access roads to allow for operator and emergency response.
|
| Construction | Form: (02A ) 400702956 1/12/2015 | Encana will install fencing to restrict access to wellheads and equipment. (If in a town, "Fencing style will be installed as required by the town".)
|
| Construction | Form: (02A ) 400702956 1/12/2015 | Per Rule 803, to the extent practicable, Encana shall direct site lighting downward and inward, and lighting shall be shielded so as to avoid glare on public roads and Building Units within one thousand (1000) feet. |
| Noise mitigation | Form: (02A ) 400702956 1/12/2015 | Encana will perform a baseline noise survey prior to any operational activity measuring dBA at a distance 350 feet from the noise source (unless there is an occupied structure closer than that – then measurement will be taken 25 feet from the structure). If low frequency noise is a concern, measurement of dBC will be taken 25 feet from the occupied structure towards the noise source. As necessary, based on the survey, Encana will install temporary sound walls to minimize noise and light impacts during drilling and completions and will install permanent noise mitigation at the facility location as necessary to meet all COGCC regulations.
|
| Noise mitigation | Form: (02A ) 400702956 1/12/2015 | The subject location will be constructed to allow potential future noise mitigation installation without disturbance.
|
| Emissions mitigation | Form: (02A ) 400702956 1/12/2015 | Flow lines, separators, and sand traps capable of supporting green completions as described in Rule 805 will be installed on subject location at which commercial quantities of gas are reasonably expected to be produced based on existing adjacent wells within 1 mile.
|
| Emissions mitigation | Form: (02A ) 400702956 1/12/2015 | Temporary flowback flaring and oxidizing equipment will include: adequeately sized equipment to handle 1.5 times the largest flowback volume of gas experienced in a ten mile radius. If there is overrun, Encana will shut in the well versus freely venting
|
| Emissions mitigation | Form: (02A ) 400702956 1/12/2015 | Encana will follow and comply with all leak detection and repair and storage tank emission management plan conditions as
required by Colorado Air Quality Control Commission Regulation Number 7. This will include at least monthly Audible,
Visual and Olfactory (AVO) inspections of the components and tanks at our Production Facilities at most weekly or at least
monthly starting on January 1, 2015. In addition, Encana will perform infra-red camera inspections of these components and
the storage tanks at most monthly or at least annually.
|
| Drilling/Completion Operations | Form: (02A ) 400702956 1/12/2015 | Encana utilizes 24” tall corrugated galvanized metal berm walls with a capacity in excess of 150% of the largest tank contained within the wall. In addition, Encana best practices mandates the use of impervious liners that extends under each storage tank and up the walls, permanently affixed to the top of the metal berm wall. Protrusions of piping that come through the liner include a fully sealed “boot” to prevent leakage.
|
| Drilling/Completion Operations | Form: (02A ) 400702956 1/12/2015 | All newly installed or replaced crude oil and condensate storage tanks will be designed, constructed, and maintained in accordance with National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) Code 30 (2008 version). Encana will maintain written records verifying proper design, construction, and maintenance, and will make these records available for inspection by the Director. In addition, onsite inspections are conducted internally to insure guidelines are met.
|
| Drilling/Completion Operations | Form: (02A ) 400702956 1/12/2015 | Modular Large Volume Tanks (MLVTs) will be in service at this facility. Encana certifies that we have complied with the MLVT Policy and that records will be made available to the COGCC upon request. A&W Water Service, Inc. is the vendor that provides water services to Encana in the DJ Basin. Two to three 40,000 barrel tanks will be on site for approximately 2 months or until the duration of completion operations have been finalized. A Location Drawing showing the location of theses MLVTs is attached. The temporarily disturbed land will be fully reclaimed after completion operations are done. |
