Additional management practices such as road surfacing, wind breaks and barriers may be used. |
| Construction | Form: (02A ) 401615378 6/9/2018 | 803. Permanent lighting will be installed around the facility to allow both the operator and haulers to conduct safe operations at night. All lights will be directed down toward the location or shielded so no light pollution leaves the facility.
|
| Emissions mitigation | Form: (02A ) 401615378 6/9/2018 | Operator will bring a new or expand existing gas sales lines, prior to first gas sales, in a timely manner, to send salable quality gas immediately down the sales line. If a sales line is unavailable or other conditions prevent placing the gas into a sales line, the operator shall not produce the wells without an approved variance per Rule 805.b.(3)C. |
| Odor mitigation | Form: (02A ) 401615378 6/9/2018 | 805. Oil & gas facilities and equipment shall be operated in such a manner that odors do not constitute a nuisance or hazard to public welfare. Operator will utilize advanced oil based mud systems which target the reduction of aromatics. |
| Interim Reclamation | Form: (02A ) 401615378 6/9/2018 | Operator shall be responsible for segregating the topsoil, backfilling, re-compacting, reseeding, and re-contouring the surface of any disturbed area so as not to interfere with Owner’s operations and shall reclaim such area to be returned to pre-existing conditions as best as possible with control of all noxious weeds. |
| Drilling/Completion Operations | Form: (04 ) 401760917 9/25/2018 | Operator has an MLVT Design Package, certified and sealed by a licensed professional engineer, which is on file in their office and available upon request. The site shall be prepared in accordance with the specifications of the design package prior to tank installation; including ensuring that proper compaction requirements have been met.
The MLVT will be at least 75 feet from any existing wellhead, fired vessel, heater-treater, or a compressor with a rating of 200 horsepower or more. It will be placed at least 50 feet from a separator, well test unit, or other non-fired equipment.
All liner seams will be welded and tested in accordance with applicable ASTM International standards.
Operator will be present during initial filling of the MLVT and the contractor will supervise and inspect the MLVT for leaks during filling.
Operator will comply with the testing and re-inspection requirements and associated written standard operating procedures (SOP) listed on the design package.
Signs will be posted on the MLVT indicating that the contents are freshwater.
The MLVT will be operated with a minimum of 1 foot of freeboard at all times.
Access to the MLVT will be limited to operational personnel and authorized regulatory agency personnel.
Operator or contractor will conduct daily visual inspections of the exterior wall and surrounding area for integrity deficiencies.
Operator has developed a contingency plan/emergency response plan associated with the MLVT and it is on file at their office.
Tanks will be filled using a local water source through temporary waterlines. No water will be trucked to location.
A fabric reinforced liner will be utilized. In the event that a tank breach were to occur, the fabric reinforced liner will prevent a “zippering” failure from occurring. The liner will meet the specifications per the design package.

| Drilling/Completion Operations | Form: (04 ) 401760917 9/25/2018 | Operator acknowledges and will comply with the Colorado Oil & Gas Conservation Commission Policy on the Use of Modular Large Volume Tanks in Colorado dated June 13, 2014. |
| Noise mitigation | Form: (04 ) 401760917 9/25/2018 | Extraction installed a ¾ sound wall wrap (opening is on the NE side towards a gravel pit) on the location.
We have also scheduled pipe unloading to occur during the daylight hours to further mitigate the noise complaint |
| Community Outreach and Notification | Form: (04 ) 402954670 6/16/2022 | MIRU notices will be sent to all surface owners and tenants within 2000’ of the location.
Our MIRU notice will contain a 24-hour hotline that can be utilized if there is a complaint regarding operations. |
| Noise mitigation | Form: (04 ) 402954670 6/16/2022 | Operator will utilize sound mitigation devices that may include the implementation of exterior sound walls, temporary walls for targeted source mitigation, straw bales or any combination thereof during drilling and completion operations. An ambient sound survey will be completed at least 30 days prior to MIRU.
Operator will utilize 32’ tall sound walls.
Operator will have continuous noise monitoring during operations. |
| Drilling/Completion Operations | Form: (04 ) 402954670 6/16/2022 | Operator will position lighting during drilling and completions operations on the sound walls in a downward manner to avoid and minimize light leaving location. |
| Drilling/Completion Operations | Form: (04 ) 402954670 6/16/2022 | Operator will utilize a "quiet completions fleet" to minimize potential nuisances from operational sound during completion operations. |
| Odor mitigation | Form: (04 ) 402954670 6/16/2022 | Operator will utilize IOGP Group II (low aromatic) drilling fluids.
Operator shall employ pipe cleaning procedures when removing drill pipe from the hole; these procedures may include “wiping” the pipe before racking it in the derrick.
Operator shall remove drill cuttings daily and as soon as waste containers are full.
Odors are not typically an issue during the completion phase but if a verifiable odor complaint is received, operator will work to try and resolve the issue with the complainant. |
