| Chieftain Energy Contractor, Mr. Ron McBride called by telephone today and stated that the dike had been pumped.  A follow-up inspection revealed that the dike has been pumped, but contamination and pollution still remains in the dike.  The separator still needs to be repaired, due to a bad dump valve.  Due to a lack of rainfall events, the earthen dike was again evaluated to ensure that it was not leaking.  During the inspection, it was noted that the dike would need to be repaired.  High Range Quantabs (Titrators for Chloride) were utilized at three locations.  Two locations inside the dike measure 2.8 and 3.8 units, which equals 538 and 899 ppm (mg/l) Cl- respectively.  A location behind the dike contained a bare area with deer tracks measuring approximately 20' x 100'.  A titrator placed near the beginning edge of this bare area showed a value of 4.2 units, 1079 ppm (mg/l) Cl- .  Note: A nearby creek is approximately 300' from this location.  The trench along the edge of the field allows water to drain offsite and into the creek.  A titrator placed near.  Chieftain Energy will be contacted regarding this inspection.

| An inspection revealed small gas leak around polish rod liner.  The liner leans to one side, as pumping unit does not appear to be level.  Valves were observed open and well pumps into a shared tank battery.  At time of the inspection, no statements of production have been submitted to the Division since 2006.  Chieftain Energy Corp. is currently addressing this deficiency for the years 2007-2009 on all wells.

| A complaint was received alleging that the Parley and Lowell Nutter wells are idle.  According to the owner of Chieftain Energy, Mr. Doug Kitchen, and the landowner, Mr. Lowell Nutter all seven wells are tied into each other to produce house gas.  Mr. Nutter states that little gas is obtained from these wells.  Mr. Kitchen admitted that a few wells need some work.  Mr. Kitchen will be given credit for 1 well since some house gas is generated.  The other 6 wells must be plugged or produced.  Mr. Kitchen was given a verbal NOV on 10/18/2006.

| The dike was full of water.  Mr. Bill Wray stated that it had been sucked out with the water truck, but it continues to fill up.  He also said that efforts will be made to remedy the problem, but it could be a combination of rain and the fact that the tank battery is in a low lying area.  Neither of the tanks have been losing fluid.  Clean-up has been performed around the well head.  The leaky valve has also been fixed.

| FOLLOW UP TO NOV #  1352148423 Received phone call from Mike Sherron (OEPA) on Sunday 11/4/12 at 5:45 pm stating that the dike for the tank battery had over flown, there was a valve bubbling gas inside the dike, there was a slight oil sheen and that he had deployed an absorbent boom across the point of escape.  When I arrived on site I observed the dike full of fluid, and the boom deployed.  There was a very slight oil sheen, and small amounts of residual oil on top of the water.  The boom had only thin stripes of contamination on it.  The point of escape for the water was a low place in the dike that hadn't been completely closed after work had been done on the tank battery.  The valve was that was reported as bubbling was indeed bubbling. I tested the water for chlorides in three places: inside the dike, just outside the dike, and in a pool of water 20 yards away.  The water inside the dike registered a 4.2 on the High Range Quantab which means there were 787 parts per million chlorides in it.  Both quantabs on the outside of the dike did not register enough chlorides to quantify.  I spoke with Mr. Bill Wray, explained to him the situation, and gave him instructions to empty the dike of any fluid.  He stated that it would be done this evening. As far as fixing the bubbling valve and the low spot on the dike, that would be taken care of later this week.  I also brought to his attention remedial clean-up needed around the well head.  He stated that that will also be taken care of this week.  Photos were taken at the time of inspection.  Spoke with property owner Lowell Nutter during inspection.

| An inspection revealed contamination and pollution near the well and inside the earthen dike.  The dike has reached maximum capacity of fluid and was also found to contain oil.  The source of the leak is from a separator inside the dike and two fittings on the bottom of (2) separate 100 bbl tanks showed signs of leakage (stains).  The tank battery is located in a low lying area at the edge of a pasture field, and road located approximately 300 feet away from a nearby creek.  At the time of the inspection, the area surrounding the well and tank battery location remain wet, due to rainfall events, and runoff from nearby road.  The earthen dike may be leaking and will be evaluated when the surrounding area begins to dry.  Quantabs (High Range) placed at locations showed no signs of accelerated chloride.  No oil sheen was observed outside the dike.  Near the well location, old parrafin was observed on the ground surface and will need to be removed.  Note: The company was informed of the inspection results, in the field, and also by telephone to include that the dike may be leaking and will be evaluated.

| Chieftain Energy Contractor, Mr. Ron McBride called by telephone today and stated that the dike had been pumped.  A follow-up inspection revealed that the dike has been pumped, but contamination and pollution still remains in the dike.  The separator still needs to be repaired, due to a bad dump valve.  Due to a lack of rainfall events, the earthen dike was again evaluated to ensure that it was not leaking.  During the inspection, it was noted that the dike would need to be repaired.  High Range Quantabs (Titrators for Chloride) were utilized at three locations.  Two locations inside the dike measure 2.8 and 3.8 units, which equals 538 and 899 ppm (mg/l) Cl- respectively.  A location behind the dike contained a bare area with deer tracks measuring approximately 20' x 100'.  A titrator placed near the beginning edge of this bare area showed a value of 4.2 units, 1079 ppm (mg/l) Cl- .  Note: A nearby creek is approximately 300' from this location.  The trench along the edge of the field allows water to drain offsite and into the creek.  A titrator placed near.  Chieftain Energy will be contacted regarding this inspection.

| An inspection revealed small gas leak around polish rod liner.  The liner leans to one side, as pumping unit does not appear to be level.  Valves were observed open and well pumps into a shared tank battery.  At time of the inspection, no statements of production have been submitted to the Division since 2006.  Chieftain Energy Corp. is currently addressing this deficiency for the years 2007-2009 on all wells.

| A follow-up inspection revealed that dike drain was releasing fluid from the dike.  Oil was observed inside the dike.  Outside the dike a 5' x 3' section of oil was observed.  Quantabs showed acceptable amount of Cl- in fluid.  Contacted Chieftain Energy and instructed to install dike and apply absorbent pads to areas that contain contamination and pollution.  The equipment that had previously been observed has now been removed from the location.  The dike does not show signs of being repaired only installed drain.

| An inspection of the tank battery and separator revealed two violations.  There was water in the tank battery that when tested with high range Quantab titrators, completely maxed them out.  The chloride content is greater than 6765 ppm (mg/L).  Water needs to be removed, and the soil underneath also needs to be removed and hauled away.  Gas was being vented from a pop-off valve on top of the separator.  This needs to be corrected, or a flare needs to be constructed as per OAC 1501:9-9-05(B).  Property owner receives house gas.

| Received phone call from Mike Sherron (OEPA) on Sunday 11/4/12 at 5:45 pm stating that the dike for the tank battery had over flown, there was a valve bubbling gas inside the dike, there was a slight oil sheen and that he had deployed an absorbent boom across the point of escape.  When I arrived on site I observed the dike full of fluid, and the boom deployed.  There was a very slight oil sheen, and small amounts of residual oil on top of the water.  The boom had only thin stripes of contamination on it.  The point of escape for the water was a low place in the dike that hadn't been completely closed after work had been done on the tank battery.  The valve was that was reported as bubbling was indeed bubbling. I tested the water for chlorides in three places: inside the dike, just outside the dike, and in a pool of water 20 yards away.  The water inside the dike registered a 4.2 on the High Range Quantab which means there were 787 parts per million chlorides in it.  Both quantabs on the outside of the dike did not register enough chlorides to quantify.  I spoke with Mr. Bill Wray, explained to him the situation, and gave him instructions to empty the dike of any fluid.  He stated that it would be done this evening. As far as fixing the bubbling valve and the low spot on the dike, that would be taken care of later this week.  I also brought to his attention remedial clean-up needed around the well head.  He stated that that will also be taken care of this week.  Photos were taken at the time of inspection.  Spoke with property owner Lowell Nutter during inspection.

| The dike was full of water.  Mr. Bill Wray stated that it had been sucked out with the water truck, but it continues to fill up.  He also said that efforts will be made to remedy the problem, but it could be a combination of rain and the fact that the tank battery is in a low lying area.  Neither of the tanks have been losing fluid.  Clean-up has been performed around the well head.  The leaky valve has also been fixed.

| FOLLOW UP TO NOV #  1352148423 Received phone call from Mike Sherron (OEPA) on Sunday 11/4/12 at 5:45 pm stating that the dike for the tank battery had over flown, there was a valve bubbling gas inside the dike, there was a slight oil sheen and that he had deployed an absorbent boom across the point of escape.  When I arrived on site I observed the dike full of fluid, and the boom deployed. There was a very slight oil sheen, and small amounts of residual oil on top of the water.  The boom had only thin stripes of contamination on it.  The point of escape for the water was a low place in the dike that hadn't been completely closed after work had been done on the tank battery.  The valve was that was reported as bubbling was indeed bubbling. I tested the water for chlorides in three places: inside the dike, just outside the dike, and in a pool of water 20 yards away.  The water inside the dike registered a 4.2 on the High Range Quantab which means there were 787 parts per million chlorides in it.  Both quantabs on the outside of the dike did not register enough chlorides to quantify.  I spoke with Mr. Bill Wray, explained to him the situation, and gave him instructions to empty the dike of any fluid.  He stated that it would be done this evening. As far as fixing the bubbling valve and the low spot on the dike, that would be taken care of later this week.  I also brought to his attention remedial clean-up needed around the well head.  He stated that that will also be taken care of this week.  Photos were taken at the time of inspection.  Spoke with property owner Lowell Nutter during inspection.

Field Visit or Inspection
1239281417 2009-03-18 An inspection revealed contamination and pollution near the well and inside the earthen dike. The dike has reached maximum capacity of fluid and was also found to contain oil. The source of the leak is from a separator inside the dike and two fittings on the bottom of (2) separate 100 bbl tanks showed signs of leakage (stains). The tank battery is located in a low lying area at the edge of a pasture field, and road located approximately 300 feet away from a nearby creek. At the time of the inspection, the area surrounding the well and tank battery location remain wet, due to rainfall events, and runoff from nearby road. The earthen dike may be leaking and will be evaluated when the surrounding area begins to dry. Quantabs (High Range) placed at locations showed no signs of accelerated chloride. No oil sheen was observed outside the dike. Near the well location, old parrafin was observed on the ground surface and will need to be removed. Note: The company was informed of the inspection results, in the field, and also by telephone to include that the dike may be leaking and will be evaluated.
-1280009483 2009-04-27 Chieftain Energy Contractor, Mr. Ron McBride called by telephone today and stated that the dike had been pumped. A follow-up inspection revealed that the dike has been pumped, but contamination and pollution still remains in the dike. The separator still needs to be repaired, due to a bad dump valve. Due to a lack of rainfall events, the earthen dike was again evaluated to ensure that it was not leaking. During the inspection, it was noted that the dike would need to be repaired. High Range Quantabs (Titrators for Chloride) were utilized at three locations. Two locations inside the dike measure 2.8 and 3.8 units, which equals 538 and 899 ppm (mg/l) Cl- respectively. A location behind the dike contained a bare area with deer tracks measuring approximately 20' x 100'. A titrator placed near the beginning edge of this bare area showed a value of 4.2 units, 1079 ppm (mg/l) Cl- . Note: A nearby creek is approximately 300' from this location. The trench along the edge of the field allows water to drain offsite and into the creek. A titrator placed near. Chieftain Energy will be contacted regarding this inspection.
-1302859697 2010-12-03 An inspection revealed small gas leak around polish rod liner. The liner leans to one side, as pumping unit does not appear to be level. Valves were observed open and well pumps into a shared tank battery. At time of the inspection, no statements of production have been submitted to the Division since 2006. Chieftain Energy Corp. is currently addressing this deficiency for the years 2007-2009 on all wells.
1302906523 2009-05-11 A follow-up inspection revealed that dike drain was releasing fluid from the dike. Oil was observed inside the dike. Outside the dike a 5' x 3' section of oil was observed. Quantabs showed acceptable amount of Cl- in fluid. Contacted Chieftain Energy and instructed to install dike and apply absorbent pads to areas that contain contamination and pollution. The equipment that had previously been observed has now been removed from the location. The dike does not show signs of being repaired only installed drain.
1312898085 2011-08-02 An inspection of the tank battery and separator revealed two violations. There was water in the tank battery that when tested with high range Quantab titrators, completely maxed them out. The chloride content is greater than 6765 ppm (mg/L). Water needs to be removed, and the soil underneath also needs to be removed and hauled away. Gas was being vented from a pop-off valve on top of the separator. This needs to be corrected, or a flare needs to be constructed as per OAC 1501:9-9-05(B). Property owner receives house gas.
1318531411 2011-10-12 Well not in compliance. Flow-line leak had been fixed. No contamination removed. Tank battery not sucked out. Met with Doug Kitchen and Ron McBride and extended the deadline by one week. They were amidst a business move. If complied with by the extension date, company may take contaminated soil back to their shop for bioremediation. If not, contaminated soil will have to be disposed of in an EPA approved landfill.
1352148423 2012-11-05 Received phone call from Mike Sherron (OEPA) on Sunday 11/4/12 at 5:45 pm stating that the dike for the tank battery had over flown, there was a valve bubbling gas inside the dike, there was a slight oil sheen and that he had deployed an absorbent boom across the point of escape. When I arrived on site I observed the dike full of fluid, and the boom deployed. There was a very slight oil sheen, and small amounts of residual oil on top of the water. The boom had only thin stripes of contamination on it. The point of escape for the water was a low place in the dike that hadn't been completely closed after work had been done on the tank battery. The valve was that was reported as bubbling was indeed bubbling. I tested the water for chlorides in three places: inside the dike, just outside the dike, and in a pool of water 20 yards away. The water inside the dike registered a 4.2 on the High Range Quantab which means there were 787 parts per million chlorides in it. Both quantabs on the outside of the dike did not register enough chlorides to quantify. I spoke with Mr. Bill Wray, explained to him the situation, and gave him instructions to empty the dike of any fluid. He stated that it would be done this evening. As far as fixing the bubbling valve and the low spot on the dike, that would be taken care of later this week. I also brought to his attention remedial clean-up needed around the well head. He stated that that will also be taken care of this week. Photos were taken at the time of inspection. Spoke with property owner Lowell Nutter during inspection.
1605632957 2012-08-09 Witnessed efforts to re-plumb tank battery and replace flow lines. Accompanied by inspector Morgan Button.
1619487256 2009-04-23 A follow-up inspection conducted with Oil & Gas Supervisor, Mr. Robert Stonerock revealed non-compliance. It was noted that the earthen dike still contains fluid and oil and the stuffing box rubbers may need to be repaired.
-1649180289 2006-10-18 A complaint was received alleging that the Parley and Lowell Nutter wells are idle. According to the owner of Chieftain Energy, Mr. Doug Kitchen, and the landowner, Mr. Lowell Nutter all seven wells are tied into each other to produce house gas. Mr. Nutter states that little gas is obtained from these wells. Mr. Kitchen admitted that a few wells need some work. Mr. Kitchen will be given credit for 1 well since some house gas is generated. The other 6 wells must be plugged or produced. Mr. Kitchen was given a verbal NOV on 10/18/2006.
-175437051 2012-11-15 The dike was full of water. Mr. Bill Wray stated that it had been sucked out with the water truck, but it continues to fill up. He also said that efforts will be made to remedy the problem, but it could be a combination of rain and the fact that the tank battery is in a low lying area. Neither of the tanks have been losing fluid. Clean-up has been performed around the well head. The leaky valve has also been fixed.
1809874276 2011-10-18 Witnessed clean-up efforts performed by Ron McBride, and Doug Kitchen. Property owner Lowell Nutter was there as well. Contaminated soil had been removed and stockpiled on location. Mr. Kitchen and Mr. Nutter agreed on composting contaminated soil where it was stockpiled. Mr. Nutter offered this as a solution. Contaminated soil will be remediated by mixing horse or cow manure and lime with it and will be re-mixed approximately 6 months from now. The soil will then be placed back in the area in which it came.
1858686454 2003-11-06 An inspection of the well revealed No ID at the well, oily soil in dike around tank battery, production tanks leaking around bottoms, fittings and seams. Dike does not meet SPCC requirements, not large enough. 1/12/04 to date company has not complied with NOV and corrected violations, turned over to management.
1907206378 2009-05-13 A follow-up inspection revealed that the oil has been cleaned up outside the dike. A plug has been placed on location for drain pipe from the earthen dike.
2047327363 2009-04-29 Met with the landowner and Chieftain Energy Contractor, Mr. Ron McBride regarding the violations and proposed plans to achieve compliance.
-2078785054 2009-05-06 A follow-up inspection revealed non-compliance. It was noted however, that equipment has been placed on-site to begin working towards achieving compliance.
2094768041 2012-12-04 Company was servicing well at the time of inspection. Rods had been pulled, and tubing was being pulled. Accompanied by Andrew Adgate and Steve Riley.
216973396 2009-04-29 Contacted Mr. Ron McBride at 1:36 PM, Chieftain Energy Contractor, on cell phone, and was instructed to repair the earthen dike around the tank battery. Quantabs had shown chlorides inside and outside the earthen dike. Mr. McBride was given two options for contaminated soil: remove contaminated soil, new topsoil, seed and mulch or bioremediation to include fertilizer, lime, seed and mulch. Mr. McBride agreed to repair the dike and has opted to perform bioremediation.
-354994637 2006-12-22 A follow-up inspection revealed that the previously noted violation has been resolved. The well was observed pumping with no signs of mechanical problems.
-383899726 2004-03-17 Follow-up, In-Compliance.
420304997 2011-10-05 A follow up inspection revealed that there was a flow line leaking gas and blowing bubbles into a pool of fluid outside of the dike. The kill zone caused the pool of fluid was approximately 12' by 35'. The fluid was tested with High Range Quantab titrators it registered 8.6 which is 5912 ppm (mg/L) chloride. There was no oil sheen on the fluid. There was also an abundance of fluid inside of the dike. Met Ron McBride, and Doug Kitchen in the field. They attempted to fix the leak, but weren't able to, so they shut the valve and will fix it when the clean up of the contaminated material takes place. Ron and Doug were given a week to remove contaminated soil, and get dike sucked out. If complied with by the extension date, company may take contaminated soil back to their shop for bioremediation. If not, contaminated soil will have to be disposed of in an EPA approved landfill.
-510898090 2012-11-05 FOLLOW UP TO NOV # 1352148423 Received phone call from Mike Sherron (OEPA) on Sunday 11/4/12 at 5:45 pm stating that the dike for the tank battery had over flown, there was a valve bubbling gas inside the dike, there was a slight oil sheen and that he had deployed an absorbent boom across the point of escape.
