10/9/2014 | Includes Structural Practices
• Implement Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan, including routine inspections and evaluation of effectiveness
• Locate tank batteries at safe distance from public roadways and railhead
• Full containment for stock tanks and separators
• Installation of pipelines in common trenches when practical
• Installation of pipelines at right angles to water bodies (drainages, wetlands, perennial water bodies) where practical
Site Specific:
1. Reporting of the presence of H2S will be done via verbal and email notices. Verbal notice with a follow up email will be provided as soon as practicable upon detection of H2S to COGCC’s area engineer and the local government designee.
2. Per ephemeral stream 29 feet southeast of staked location – structural practices will be implemented at the site to minimize erosion and sediment transport. Practices may include but are not limited to: straw bales, wattles/sediment control logs, silt fences, earth dikes, drainage swales, sediment traps, subsurface drains, pipe slope drains, inlet protection, outlet protection, gabions, and temporary sediment basins.
