| Upon inspection, it was observed that the preliminary restoration has not been performed for this well location. The north end of the well pad has developed significant erosive conditions causing deep rills and gullies to form on the slope. A large portion of the pad is void of vegetation and barren areas are allowing sediment-laden surface runoff to flow into drainage areas. Drilling pits have been closed. There are several trees down in the lease road, rendering the road impassable by vehicle. Mr. Scott Gannon of Flat Rock Development LLC has been notified of this situation via voicemail. Previous inspection reports indicate that an extension was granted for preliminary restoration on the grounds that plans be brought forth to show intent to kick-off and drill a horizontal well on this location. No such plans have been produced and/or submitted to ODNR DOGRM. Flat Rock Development LLC will have until 9/1/2014 to complete the preliminary restoration for this location.

| Stopped in at this location to see if any progress had been made toward completing the preliminary restoration requirements. Upon inspection, it was observed that the lease road has been cleared of all fallen trees, the location has been graded, and the seed and mulch was staged on the location and will be spread this weekend. Childress and Childress Timber and Excavating was on location, and Mr. Gary Childress stated that the restoration activities will be completed by the September 1st deadline. I will re-inspect next week to see if the restoration is complete.

| Met with Mr. Scott Gannon and Mr. Brian Chavez on site.  I was accompanied by Inspector Mike Mitchell.  Mr. Gannon and Mr. Chavez expressed interest in drilling this well horizontally in the Utica shale.  I advised the company men of the site work that would need to be done to contain the operation as a whole.  Mr. Gannon stated that he would have plans drawn up.  We agreed on an extension of the preliminary restoration of the site until after the horizontal well is drilled.

| I went out to rig to check progress - had not been out to location since rig moved in.  Pits look good, location is large enough  and rig is putting drill stem back in to begin drilling out from under conductor.  Wanted to look at surface casing before going in hole and found it a different size than called for.  Called Steve Bumgardner, company man, and left a message to explain the change, then called Steve Opritza and Mike McCormac and left messages questioning the change.  Steve B. called back and said he had talked with Steve O. and he (Steve O.)  had given approval verbally, he felt.  They have changed surface from 13 3/8" with a "minimum of 300' " to 11 3/4" and plan to set 1700'.  While this meets permit conditions, not sure if they can set that much.  After consulting new Well Construction Rules, found under (4)(f)(iii) that they can set as much as needed without drilling into potential flow zones.  This depth of 1700' would be allowed - Steve O. called me back @3:30, saying the size of casing OK but no word on the depth.  Dan Goins and Mike McCormac both feel they should stop at 300' so called rig and told them to stop - to set only 300'.  Flat Rock says it will be very hard to drill to 7000' with only 300' surface casing in the hole.  Went out late 11/9/12 and witnessed cementing of surface casing - no problems.  Total time spent for 2 days - 8 hrs.  11/16/12 - Talked with Steve Opritza - he does not remember specifically talking to Steve Bumgardner but says they could have set their Surface Casing to the top of the Berea (1700') with the stipulation that Intermediate Casing would have to be set and cemented thru the Berea.  As that was their intention - to set Intermediate thru the Clinton/Medina, they could have set Surface to 1700' and met requirements.  Permit conditions for a "minimum of 300' Surface Casing" would also have been met.

| I visited the rig and found they were 5250' and drilling.  They predict they will run 8 5/8" casing thru the Clinton/Medina (@ 6100') and cement sometime 11/17/12 late afternoon.  I told them I would not be out to witness.  They report they have had a hard time drilling thru the "red clays" but, with the addition of special chemicals and mud, have been able to proceed.  I talked with Steve Opritza, ODNR,  this morning to verify what was discussed with Steve Bumgardner regarding the change in casing size and depth - he did not specifically recall any details but said they had discussed making some changes.  We discussed the amount of surface casing required on the permit - "a minimum of 300'" - and he agreed they had met the permit requirements.  I also asked him if the new well construction rules, specically under Surface Casing (f) (iii), which state that the surface casing could be run thru "water zones that may include brackish or brine bearing zones.  This casing string shall be set and cemented to surface before the owner drills into potential flow zones" , (i.e. the Berea), would apply in this situation and he agreed that they could have run 1700' of casing in this well with the Berea at 1850'.  There were no water wells within 500'.  I picked up the graph showing the BOP/surface casing cement test that showed the surface casing passed the integrity test.  Once Intermediate string is cemented, rig will take next week off and resume drilling @12/1/12.

| I had only 5.5 regular hours to work and when asked Supervisor if I should go out on the Conductor job, D. Goins said not to.  I have reviewed Conductor program with the operator and believed he is following permit requirements.  I have not discussed Surface casing requirements with them yet.

| I received e-mail from Steve Bumgardner saying that well had reached TD at 7440'.  I stopped by the rig to confirm where they will set their plugs and the amount and quality of cement.  They will set cement across the Utica/Pt. Pleasant and then a 300' kick plug above the Utica.  They have not logged yet but expect cementing tonight.

| Upon inspection, it was observed that the perimeter of this location has been re-graded and is now stabilized with a full vegetative cover. Some areas are still sparse with vegetation but are not creating erosive conditions. The lease road has been re-graded and cleared of down trees. Legible and correct identification information has been posted at the front gate. This fulfills the requirements of the preliminary restoration. The compliance notice can be closed out.

1352555297 2012-11-09 I went out to rig to check progress - had not been out to location since rig moved in. Pits look good, location is large enough and rig is putting drill stem back in to begin drilling out from under conductor. Wanted to look at surface casing before going in hole and found it a different size than called for. Called Steve Bumgardner, company man, and left a message to explain the change, then called Steve Opritza and Mike McCormac and left messages questioning the change. Steve B. called back and said he had talked with Steve O. and he (Steve O.) had given approval verbally, he felt. They have changed surface from 13 3/8 with a minimum of 300' to 11 3/4 and plan to set 1700'. While this meets permit conditions, not sure if they can set that much. After consulting new Well Construction Rules, found under (4)(f)(iii) that they can set as much as needed without drilling into potential flow zones. This depth of 1700' would be allowed - Steve O. called me back @3:30, saying the size of casing OK but no word on the depth. Dan Goins and Mike McCormac both feel they should stop at 300' so called rig and told them to stop - to set only 300'. Flat Rock says it will be very hard to drill to 7000' with only 300' surface casing in the hole. Went out late 11/9/12 and witnessed cementing of surface casing - no problems. Total time spent for 2 days - 8 hrs. 11/16/12 - Talked with Steve Opritza - he does not remember specifically talking to Steve Bumgardner but says they could have set their Surface Casing to the top of the Berea (1700') with the stipulation that Intermediate Casing would have to be set and cemented thru the Berea. As that was their intention - to set Intermediate thru the Clinton/Medina, they could have set Surface to 1700' and met requirements. Permit conditions for a minimum of 300' Surface Casing would also have been met.
1352906028 2012-11-13 I talked to Steve Bumgardner @ 11 AM and he reports rig is back to drilling and at 3200'. The BOP and cement integrity was tested and charted by outside company and he has the graphs for me to pick up - all tests passed.
1353190490 2012-11-16 I visited the rig and found they were 5250' and drilling. They predict they will run 8 5/8 casing thru the Clinton/Medina (@ 6100') and cement sometime 11/17/12 late afternoon. I told them I would not be out to witness. They report they have had a hard time drilling thru the red clays but, with the addition of special chemicals and mud, have been able to proceed. I talked with Steve Opritza, ODNR, this morning to verify what was discussed with Steve Bumgardner regarding the change in casing size and depth - he did not specifically recall any details but said they had discussed making some changes. We discussed the amount of surface casing required on the permit - a minimum of 300' - and he agreed they had met the permit requirements. I also asked him if the new well construction rules, specically under Surface Casing (f) (iii), which state that the surface casing could be run thru water zones that may include brackish or brine bearing zones. This casing string shall be set and cemented to surface before the owner drills into potential flow zones , (i.e. the Berea), would apply in this situation and he agreed that they could have run 1700' of casing in this well with the Berea at 1850'. There were no water wells within 500'. I picked up the graph showing the BOP/surface casing cement test that showed the surface casing passed the integrity test. Once Intermediate string is cemented, rig will take next week off and resume drilling @12/1/12.
1353260279 2012-11-08 I had only 5.5 regular hours to work and when asked Supervisor if I should go out on the Conductor job, D. Goins said not to. I have reviewed Conductor program with the operator and believed he is following permit requirements. I have not discussed Surface casing requirements with them yet.
1353412195 2012-11-20 I talked to Steve Bumgardner from Flat Rock and he reports drilling has gotten very hard. They have drilled to 6350' and will run intermediate string of 8 5/8 casing to @6240'. Expect to cement around 2 AM this day.
1353903434 2012-11-25 On the date of 11-25-12 talked with Steve Baumgardner on well construction. They have just performed the intermittent job and the depth was at 6240'. There was no cement circulated back to surface. There was a basket at 980' ran. Talking with Steve they will run a string of 1tubing and circulate cement back to surface.
1354535973 2012-11-30 Communication with Steve Burgardner, consultant for the well, reports that they have drilled out concrete in pipe and drilling out from under bottom of Intermediate string but are having trouble getting the bit thru a joint of casing - will do a survey, test to determine if casing if faulty, then continue drilling if no problems found. Currently 150' below bottom of Intermediate string.
1354552271 2012-11-26 I accompanied Pat Shreve to witness longstring cement job. We also witnessed the BOP test.
1354816437 2012-12-06 Met with company on the depth of well that was at Total depth of 7440'. The rig is a loadstar 550 and is stacking pipe out to log open hole by Schlumberger. The proposed plugs are at 7270-6970'. The second plug is at 6900-6600'. The bottom of 8.625 is at 6240'. The formations are at 7162 as top of the utica.7330 is top of the Trenton.
1354825614 2012-12-06 I received e-mail from Steve Bumgardner saying that well had reached TD at 7440'. I stopped by the rig to confirm where they will set their plugs and the amount and quality of cement. They will set cement across the Utica/Pt. Pleasant and then a 300' kick plug above the Utica. They have not logged yet but expect cementing tonight.
-1580948845 2014-08-13 Upon inspection, it was observed that the preliminary restoration has not been performed for this well location. The north end of the well pad has developed significant erosive conditions causing deep rills and gullies to form on the slope. A large portion of the pad is void of vegetation and barren areas are allowing sediment-laden surface runoff to flow into drainage areas. Drilling pits have been closed. There are several trees down in the lease road, rendering the road impassable by vehicle. Mr. Scott Gannon of Flat Rock Development LLC has been notified of this situation via voicemail. Previous inspection reports indicate that an extension was granted for preliminary restoration on the grounds that plans be brought forth to show intent to kick-off and drill a horizontal well on this location. No such plans have been produced and/or submitted to ODNR DOGRM. Flat Rock Development LLC will have until 9/1/2014 to complete the preliminary restoration for this location.
-1654063061 2015-03-03 This is not a production well at this time, as it has not been completed. Upon inspection, it was observed that the well location is stabilized with a vegetative cover. There are no tanks or other production/sales equipment associated with the well. No violations are present that would prevent Temporary Inactive Status from being granted.
-1878751481 2012-11-26 Universal came in to site to pump cement down to basket at 980'on the backside of the 8.625casing. Universal pumped 225 sacks to surface by hesitation pump method. Upon completing this job the 8.625casing was pressure tested to 528 psi. Leaked back to 491psi after 30 minutes. Test passed.
-1968128299 2014-08-29 Stopped in at this location to see if any progress had been made toward completing the preliminary restoration requirements. Upon inspection, it was observed that the lease road has been cleared of all fallen trees, the location has been graded, and the seed and mulch was staged on the location and will be spread this weekend. Childress and Childress Timber and Excavating was on location, and Mr. Gary Childress stated that the restoration activities will be completed by the September 1st deadline. I will re-inspect next week to see if the restoration is complete.
-2013225928 2012-12-08 I was out on location due to plugging back of this well, so to drill horizontal well from this hole at a later date. Put a 300' plug across the Utica/Pt.Pleasant and a 500' kick plug. Rig moving off next week.
-213163016 2014-10-22 Upon inspection, it was observed that the perimeter of this location has been re-graded and is now stabilized with a full vegetative cover. Some areas are still sparse with vegetation but are not creating erosive conditions. The lease road has been re-graded and cleared of down trees. Legible and correct identification information has been posted at the front gate. This fulfills the requirements of the preliminary restoration. The compliance notice can be closed out.
237586482 2014-08-14 Spoke with Mr. Scott Gannon of Flat Rock Development LLC via phone call at 3:42 pm to discuss the preliminary restoration for this well. I informed Mr. Gannon of the erosive conditions present on the pad location and that the preliminary restoration needs to be performed as soon as possible. Mr. Gannon stated that they do not currently have plans together to drill a horizontal well on this location, and he agreed to have a crew perform the preliminary restoration by the first week of September.
-569500946 2013-10-30 Met with Mr. Scott Gannon and Mr. Brian Chavez on site. I was accompanied by Inspector Mike Mitchell. Mr. Gannon and Mr. Chavez expressed interest in drilling this well horizontally in the Utica shale. I advised the company men of the site work that would need to be done to contain the operation as a whole. Mr. Gannon stated that he would have plans drawn up. We agreed on an extension of the preliminary restoration of the site until after the horizontal well is drilled.
6127798 2014-09-16 Upon inspection, it was observed that the location has been graded, seeded, and mulched. Vegetation is beginning to grown on the seeded areas. I will continue to monitor the progress of vegetation growth on this location before passing the preliminary restoration.
