COGIS - Conditions of Approval Results

Type	Source Document	Conditions of Approval
OGLA	Form: (02A) 400412252 06/17/2013	GENERAL SITE COAs: Notify the COGCC 48 hours prior to start of pad construction, rig mobilization, spud, and start of hydraulic stimulation operations using Form 42 (the appropriate COGCC individuals will automatically be email notified, including the LGD for hydraulic stimulation operations). Operator must implement best management practices to contain any unintentional release of fluids, including any fluids conveyed via temporary surface pipelines or buried permanent pipelines. Operator must ensure secondary containment for any volume of fluids contained at well site during drilling and completion operations (as shown on the Construction Layout Drawings attachment); including, but not limited to, construction of a berm or diversion dike, diversion/collection trenches within and/or outside of berms/dikes, site grading, or other comparable measures (i.e., best management practices (BMPs) associated with stormwater management) sufficiently protective of nearby surface water. Any berm constructed at the well pad location will be stabilized, inspected at regular intervals (at least every 14 days), and maintained in good condition. The moisture content of any cuttings in a cuttings pit, trench, or pile shall be as low as practicable to prevent accumulation of liquids greater than de minimis amounts. At the time of closure, if the drill cuttings are to be left onsite, they must also meet the applicable standards of table 910-1. If the well is to be hydraulically stimulated, then flowback and stimulation fluids must be sent to tanks, separators, or other containment/filtering equipment before the fluids can be placed into any pipeline, storage vessel, or lined pit (only if an amended Form 2A has been submitted/approved and a Form 15 Earthen Pit Permitted has been submitted/approved) located on the well pad; or into tanker trucks for offsite disposal. The flowback and stimulation fluid tanks, separators, or other containment/filtering equipment must be placed on the well pad in an area with additional downgradient perimeter berming. The area where flowback fluids will be stored/reused must be constructed to be sufficiently impervious to contain any spilled or released material. Berms or other containment devices shall be constructed to be sufficiently impervious (preferably corrugated steel with poly liner) to contain any spilled or released material around crude oil, condensate, and produced water storage tanks.
OGLA	Form: (02A) 400412252 06/17/2013	BASELINE GROUNDWATER TESTING COA: Operator shall comply with Rule 609. STATEWIDE GROUNDWATER BASELINE SAMPLING AND MONITORING.
Reclamation Specialist	Form: (04) 403067050 06/06/2022	Continue to monitor and manage Location and access road for Stormwater, as well as Undesirable and Noxious Plant species until Location has received a passing final inspection.

Wildlife	Form: (02A ) 400412252 6/28/2013	Minimize the number, length and footprint of oil & gas development roads Use existing routes where possible Combine utility infrastructure planning (gas, electric & water) when possible with roadway planning to avoid separate utility corridors Coordinate Employee transport when possible Reduce visits to well-sites through remote monitoring (i.e. SCADA) and the use of multi-function contractors. Maximize use of state-of-the-art drilling technology (e.g., high efficiency rigs, coiled-tubing unit rigs, closed-loop or pitless drilling, etc.) to minimize disturbance.
