01/02/2018 | The moisture content of water/bentonite based mud (WBM) generated drill cuttings managed onsite shall be kept as low as practicable to prevent accumulation of liquids greater than de minimis amounts. The operator has indicated in the ‘DRILLING WASTE MANAGEMENT PROGRAM SECTION’ of the Form 2A; that ‘Cuttings Disposal’ will be “OFFSITE” and that the ‘Cuttings Disposal Method’ will be “Beneficial reuse”, ‘Other Disposal Description’ as “PLEASE SEE ATTACHED WASTE MANAGEMENT PLAN”. Any proposed offsite disposal or beneficial reuse of cuttings to another oil and gas location shall not occur until approval of a Form 4 Sundry Notice specifying disposal or beneficial reuse location and cuttings material sampling and characterization methods. A Form 4 Sundry Notice must also be submitted for any of the WBM drill cuttings that will remain on the well pad location and must be sampled and meet the applicable standards of Table 910-1.
Flowback and stimulation fluids must be sent to enclosed tanks, separators, or other containment/filtering equipment before the fluids can be placed into any pipeline or storage vessel; or into tanker trucks for offsite disposal. No open top tanks can be used for initial flowback fluids containment. The flowback and stimulation fluid tanks, separators, or other containment/filtering equipment must be placed on the well pad in an area constructed to be sufficiently impervious to contain any spilled or released material.
Potential odors associated with the completions process and/or with long term production operations must be controlled/mitigated. |
