• Utilize staked soil retention blankets for erosion control and reclamation of large surface areas with 1.5:1 or steeper slopes.
Avoid use of plastic blanket materials.
• Remove well pad and road surface materials that are incompatible with post-production land use and re-vegetation
requirements
• Use only certified weed-free native seed in seed mixes, except for non-native plants that benefit wildlife
• Williams will use certified, weed free grass hay, straw, hay or other mulch materials used for the reseeding and reclamation
of disturbed areas.
• Install exclusionary devices to prevent bird and other wildlife access to equipment stacks, vents and openings.
• Reduce visits to well-sites through remote monitoring (i.e. SCADA) and the use of multi-function contractors.

1/4/2013 | PLANNING BMP's
• Maximize the utility of surface facilities by developing multiple wells from a single pad (directional drilling), and by co-
locating multipurpose facilities (for example, well pads and compressors) to avoid unnecessary habitat fragmentation and
disturbance of additional geographic areas.
• Minimize newly planned activities and operations within 300 feet of the ordinary high water mark of any reservoir, lake,
wetland, or natural perennial or seasonally flowing stream or river.
• Locate roads outside of drainages where possible and outside of riparian habitat.
• Avoid constructing any road segment in the channel of an intermittent or perennial stream
• Minimize the number, length, and footprint of oil and gas development roads
• Use existing roads where possible
• Combine utility infrastructure (gas, electric, and water) planning with roadway planning to avoid separate utility corridors
• Combine and share roads to minimize habitat fragmentation
• Where possible, consolidate pipeline and existing roadways, or roadways that are planned for development
• Place roads to avoid obstructions to migratory routes for wildlife, and to avoid displacement of wildlife from public to
private lands.
• Maximize the use of directional drilling to minimize habitat loss/fragmentation
• Maximize use of remote telemetry for well monitoring to minimize traffic
• Restrict oil and gas activities as practical during critical seasonal periods

3/15/2013 | Because this location is in a Sensitive Area (See attached SAD), Williams will employ the following BMPs to support protection of surface and ground water:
• Williams will ensure 110 percent secondary containment for any volume of fluids contained at well site during drilling and completion operations.
• Williams will implement best management practices to contain any unintentional release of fluids.
• Either a lined drilling pit or closed loop system will be implemented.
