07/19/2018 | Material Handling and Spill Prevention: The following COAs will apply to this Form 2A Permit if any temporary surface (COAs 45, 49, 54, and 55) or buried permanent (COA 45) flowlines and/or offsite pipelines (poly or steel) are used during operations at this oil and gas location:
COA 45 - Operator shall pressure test pipelines (flowlines from wellheads to separators to condensate and produced water tanks; and any temporary surface lines used for hydraulic stimulation and/or flowback operations) in accordance with COGCC's 1100-Series rules prior to putting into initial service any temporary surface or permanent buried pipelines and following any reconfiguration of the pipeline network, and tested annually.
COA 49 - Operator must routinely inspect the entire length of the surface pipeline to ensure integrity. Operator shall conduct daily inspections of surface poly pipeline routes for leaks during active transfer of fluids and implement best management practices to contain any unintentional release of fluids along all portions of the surface pipeline route where temporary pumps and other necessary equipment are located. Inspections shall be conducted by viewing the length of the pipeline; operator will endeavor to minimize surface disturbance during pipeline monitoring. In addition, pump stations along the surface poly or steel pipeline route will be continuously monitored when operating in order to swiftly respond to such a failure.
COA 54 - Operator will implement BMPs necessary to mitigate a potential for a release of fluids to impact streams, intermittent streams, ditches, and drainage crossings. For these crossings: if poly pipe is used on the surface, operator will ensure appropriate containment by either installing over-sized pipe “sleeves” which extend the length of the crossing and beyond to a distance deemed adequate to capture (catchment basins) and/or divert any possible release of fluids and prevent fluids from reaching the stream or drainage; installing over-sized pipe “sleeves” which extend the length of the crossing and installing shut off valves on either side of crossing instead of catchment basins; or develop an alternative means for containment. For all other pipeline materials, operator will implement BMPs necessary to mitigate a potential for E&P fluids not to reach groundwater or flowing surface water.
COA 55 - Operator will utilize, to the extent practical, all existing access and other public roads, and/or existing pipeline right-of-ways, when placing/routing the temporary surface pipelines. This will reduce surface disturbance and fragmentation of wildlife habitat in the area. |

07/19/2018 | Drilling/Completions: The following COAs will apply:
COA 11 - 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.
COA 25 - 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 storage vessel, or into tanker trucks for offsite disposal. No open top tanks can be used for flowback fluids containment. |

06/08/2020 | Operator shall verify the arsenic background levels in the area. |
| Environmental | Form: (04)
402009093
07/01/2020 | It is stated, "The arsenic values ranged from 5.1 to 6.9 mg/Kg which is within the range of background concentrations observed for arsenic in this area."
The operator shall provide background arsenic samples including the locations of which samples were collected and the analytical lab reports and request relief via FAQ 31. |

07/01/2020 | After review of the data presented, elevated levels of [EC] exist 48" below ground
(bgs) surface in the area of the excavation (CUTTING TRENCH). Per guidance in FAQ 32
elevated levels of [SAR] should not adversely affect the successful reclamation of the
site. If groundwater is found to be impacted, or if reclamation is not compliant with the
BLM rules, additional remediation activities may be required at the site. |
