3rd party wildlife surveys will be conducted on this well prior to rigging up for P&A activities.
Notification will be given to any adjacent building unit occupants within a 1000 feet of the wellhead of planned P&A start date.
Please be aware that Form 6 Approval can predate actual rig work by up to several months and that environmental conditions can change quickly over that time. Chevron’s Environmental Site Screening Process incorporates full environmental field clearances within 7 days of a scheduled well-work activity once the well is added to the active workover rig schedule. Should sensitive HPH conditions be identified during the screening process, Chevron will delay the work until conditions (nesting) clear and/or consult directly with CPW for guidance and discussion of potential mitigation measures that may be incorporated. |
