COGIS - Conditions of Approval Results

Type	Source Document	Conditions of Approval
OGLA	Form: (02A) 400529375 03/06/2014	Notify the COGCC 48 hours prior to start of pad reconstruction/regrading, rig mobilization, spud, and start of hydraulic stimulation operations using Form 42 (the appropriate COGCC individuals will automatically be email notified, including the LGD for hydraulic stimulation operations).
OGLA	Form: (02A) 400529375 03/06/2014	Operator must ensure secondary containment for any volume of fluids contained at well site during drilling and completion operations; including, but not limited to, construction of a berm or diversion dike, diversion/collection trenches within and/or outside of berms/dikes, site grading, or other comparable measures sufficiently protective of nearby surface water. Any berm constructed at the well pad location will be stabilized, inspected at regular intervals (at least every 14 days), and maintained in good condition.
OGLA	Form: (02A) 400529375 03/06/2014	Flowback and stimulation fluids must be sent to tanks, separators, or other containment/filtering equipment before the fluids can be placed into any pipeline or storage vessel located on the well pad; or into tanker trucks for offsite disposal. 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 and with additional downgradient perimeter berming.
OGLA	Form: (02A) 400529375 03/06/2014	Operator shall pressure test pipelines in accordance with Rule 1101.e.(1) prior to putting into initial service any temporary surface or permanent buried pipelines and following any reconfiguration of the pipeline network. Operator shall notify the COGCC Oil and Gas Location Assessment (OGLA) Specialist for Western Colorado (Dave Kubeczko; email dave.kubeczko@state.co.us) and the COGCC Field Inspection Supervisor for Northwest Colorado (Shaun Kellerby; email shaun.kellerby@state.co.us) 48 hours prior to testing surface or buried poly/steel pipelines. Operator must 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. 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. Inspections shall be conducted by viewing the length of the pipeline; operator will endeavor to minimize surface disturbance during pipeline monitoring. The operator shall maintain records of inspections, findings and repairs, if necessary, for the life of the pipelines. Operator must ensure appropriate secondary containment for volume of fluids that may be released before pump shut down from the surface pipeline at all stream, intermittent stream, ditch, and drainage crossings. Catchment basins, if needed, should be sized to contain the volume between pump stations or between the nearest pump station and the frac pad being used for this well pad location. 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. Operator may install shut off valves on either side of drainages instead of installing catchment basins. 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 surface pipelines.

COGIS - Best Management Practice Results

BMP Type	Source Document	Best Management Practices
Planning	Form: (02A ) 400529375 4/12/2014	Share/consolidate corridors for pipeline ROWs to the maximum extent possible. Maximize the utility of surface facilities by developing multiple wells from a single pad (directional drilling), and by co-locating multipurpose facilities (for example, well pads and compressors) to avoid unnecessary habitat fragmentation and disturbance of additional geographic areas. Use existing roads where possible. Maximize the use of directional drilling to minimize habitat loss/fragmentation. Maximize use of long-term centralized tank batteries to minimize traffic. Maximize use of remote completion/frac operations to minimize traffic Maximize use of remote telemetry for well monitoring to minimize traffic.
Interim Reclamation	Form: (02A ) 400529375 4/12/2014	Use only certified weed-free native seed in seed mixes, except for non-native plants that benefit wildlife. WPX Energy will use certified, weed free grass hay, straw, hay or other mulch materials used for the reseeding and reclamation of disturbed areas. Install exclusionary devices to prevent bird and other wildlife access to equipment stacks, vents and openings. Reduce visits to well-sites through remote monitoring (i.e. SCADA) and the use of multi-function contractors.
