401299221
8/20/2017 | 805. Oil & gas facilities and equipment shall be operated in such a manner that odors and dust do not constitute a nuisance or hazard to public welfare. Operator is in the process of implementing a new base fluid for Oil Base Mud systems. The aromatics and BTEX concentrations are much less than that of generic diesel. With these two things being the major contributors to the odor from diesel, this should lead to less odor at the drill site caused by OBM. |

803. Site lighting shall be shielded and directed downward and inward away from the south of the location so as to avoid glare to the closest Building Units. Permanent lighting shall be mounted at compressor stations on a pole or building and directed downward to illuminate key areas within the facility, while minimizing the amount of light projected outside the facility.
Operator will bring a new or expand existing gas sales lines, prior to producing additional wells on the pad.
Operator will install an engineered containment system around and beneath the tank battery. The containment system is constructed of a perimeter of walls that are post driven into the ground around a flexible geotextile base. All components including the underlayment are sprayed with a polyurea liner technology. This liner technology maintains impermeability and puncture resistance under exposure to UV rays, weather extremes, and chemicals commonly encountered in oil and natural gas production, and provides seamless protection.
Berm construction. Tank berms shall be constructed of steel rings with a synthetic or engineered liner and designed to contain 150% of the capacity of the largest tank. All berms will be visually checked weekly at a minimum to a maximum of daily to ensure proper working condition. Secondary containment devices shall be sufficiently impervious to contain any spilled or released material. No potential ignition sources shall be installed inside the secondary containment area unless the containment area encloses a fired vessel.
Operator will implement site-specific best management practices in accordance with good engineering practices, including, but not limited to, construction of a berm or diversion dike, site grading, or other comparable measures, sufficient to protect the irrigation ditch located southwest of the oil and gas location from a release of drilling, completion, produced fluids, and chemical products.
Operator will compact the subsoil and multiple lifts of road base to prevent quick penetration of leaks from happening allowing for 99.9% to 100% recovery.
Operator plans the facility piping and flowlines above ground so that they can be visually inspected for any signs of leaks or corrosion.
Operator will utilize separators that are 100% internally coated to prevent corrosion and leaks. Separators will be within secondary containment and on compacted road base. |
