Storm Water/Erosion Control | Form: (02A ) 400988987 7/29/2016 | STORM WATER AND SPILL CONTROL PRACTICES
GENERAL
· Utilize diking and other forms of containment and diversions around tanks, drums, chemicals, liquids, pits, impoundments, or well pads. Alternatively secondary containment may be provided around the entire perimeter of the location when containment structures are not feasible in immediate vicinity of storage vessels.
· Use drip pans, sumps, or liners where appropriate
· Limit the amount of land disturbed during construction of pad, access road, and facilities
· Employ spill response plan (SPCC) for all facilities
· Dispose properly offsite any wastes fluids and other materials
MATERIAL HANDLING, ACTIVITIES, PRACTICES AND STORM WATER DIVERSION
· Secondary containment of tanks, drums, and storage areas is mandatory to prohibit discharges to surface waters. A minimum of 110% capacity required of largest storage tank within a containment area
· Material handling and spill prevention procedures and practices will be followed to help prohibit discharges to surface waters
· Proper loading, and transportation procedures to be followed for all materials to and from locations
EROSION CONTROL
· Pad and access road to be designed to minimize erosion
· Pad and access road to implement appropriate erosion control devices where necessary to minimize erosion
· Routine inspections of sites and controls to be implemented with additions, repairs, and optimization to occur as necessary to minimize erosion
SELF INSPECTION, MAINTENANCE, AND HOUSEKEEPING
· All employees are trained in spill response, good housekeeping, material management practices, and procedures for equipment and container washing annually
· Conduct internal storm water inspections per applicable stormwater regulations
· Conduct routine informal inspections of all tanks and storage facilities at least weekly
· All containment areas are to be inspected weekly or following a heavy rain event.
· Any excessive precipitation accumulation within containment should be removed as appropriate and disposed of properly
· All structural berms, dikes, and containment will be inspected periodically to ensure they are operating correctly

NOTIFICATIONS
· Proper notifications required by COGCC regulations or policy memos will be adhered to
TRENCHES/PITS/TEMPORARY FRAC TANKS
· Unlined pits will not be constructed.
· Drill cuttings will either be hauled to an approved spread field or waste disposal facility
· Flowback and stimulation fluids from the wells being completed will be sent to tanks and/or filters to allow the sand to settle out before the fluids are hauled to a state approved disposal facility.
· Temporary frac tanks installed on location will have proper secondary containment according to SPCC regulations such as either putting a perimeter berm around location or around the frac tanks.
VEHICLE & LOCATION PROCEDURES
· Vehicles entering location are to be free of chemical, oil, mud, weeds, trash, and debris
· Location to be treated to kill weeds and bladed when necessary
