5/14/2017 | 305.a.(2) A Notice of Intent to Conduct Operations was sent to each building unit owner within the Exception Zone or Buffer Zone Setback. Recipients did not contact KMG.
As a part of planning this proposed location, Kerr-McGee held multi-disciplinary Surface Impact Planning Meetings regarding the impacts and mitigations associated with this proposed location. The toll-free hotline number and email for the Anadarko Colorado Response Line will be posted at the entrance to the lease access road for stakeholders during drilling and completion operations at this proposed location. Courtesy Notifications will be sent to impacted stakeholders prior to drilling operations and again prior to completions operations, providing contact information for the Anadarko Colorado Response Line and online resources.

5/14/2017 | 604c.(2).W. Site-Specific Measures: KMG maintains a Storm Water Management Plan that assesses erosion control for every KMG operated location. This location will be added to this plan once construction begins. This site will be inspected every fourteen (14) days during construction activities, every twenty-eight (28) days after construction is completed, and after any major weather event. |
| Material Handling and Spill Prevention | Form: (02A )
401178693
5/14/2017 | 604c.(2).N. Control of Fire Hazards: KMG and its contractors will employ best management practices during the drilling and production of its wells and facilities and will comply with appropriate COGCC rules concerning safety and fire. KMG will ensure that any material that might be deemed a fire hazard will remain no less than twenty-five (25) feet from the wellhead(s), tanks and separator(s). |
| Dust control | Form: (02A )
401178693
5/14/2017 | 805.c. Dust: Water will be placed on dirt access roads to mitigate dust as needed. If feasible, magnesium chloride will also be used as needed on access roads to further abate dust. |

5/14/2017 | 604c.(2).A. Noise
Drilling: Sound surveys have been conducted on each rig type and are utilized to anticipate any additional effective noise mitigation once a drilling rig is determined. During drilling operations, at a minimum, and pending a safety review after construction of the location, sound mitigation barriers (straw bales) will be placed along the North side and North East corner in order to mitigate the building units to the North (~567’, ~720’, ~900’) and the building unit to the Northeast (~750’).
Completions: During completion operations, at a minimum, and pending a safety review after construction of the location, sound mitigation barriers (straw bales) will be placed along the North side and North East corner in order to mitigate the building units to the North (~567’, ~720’, ~900’) and the building unit to the Northeast (~750’). LED lights will be used during completion operations.
Should technological advancements allow for better noise mitigation at the time of drilling and completion operations on this location, Kerr-McGee will re-evaluate the most effective method at that time.
