0002728426 2016-05-12 Production Wells Violations Noted On the day of my inspection I was accompanied by Southeast Region District Supervisor Mike Moreland. While inspecting the storage tank we noticed a bare area in the agricultural field just below the dike. The area was muddy and heavily tracked by deer. There was a small amount of water lying in the dike around the back of the 100 barrel tank, but there were no indications that the dike had filled with water to the point that it had run over the side. There was a two to three inch wide linear depression in the grass on the outside of the dike wall that ran from the top of the wall down to the edge of the field. There were also multiple wet areas along the border of the field and a six inch wide erosion ditch that ran from the wet areas downslope to the center of the field. I conducted field tests for the presence of chlorides with low range Quantab test strips. The lying water in the wet areas and throughout the erosion ditch all tested at 38 parts per million (ppm) for chlorides. The water in the dike tested at 144 ppm. The water in the muddy, deer-tracked bare spot tested at a 9 on the test strip, which exceeded the low range scale and indicated that the chloride level was greater than 644 ppm. I called Emergency Operations Coordinator Josh Schiering to report the contamination. He met us at the site to collect photos and begin his investigation. Josh conducted a field test on the water in the bare spot with a high range Quantab test strip. The water tested at 1300 ppm for chlorides. All brine impacted soil must be excavated from the site and hauled to an approved landfill, and a copy of the manifest must be provided.

1133097933 2016-06-06 Production Wells No Violations On the day of my inspection I found that the 100 barrel steel tank had been removed from the location. The inside of the dike had been excavated down to approximately 3 feet deep. The impacted area in the field below the dike had also been excavated down to approximately 2 feet deep. The excavated soil had been stockpiled outside the dike. I spoke with David Bonar, who claimed that he was removing the production equipment and he would not replace it until the wells were under his ownership. He also claimed that he was working with Jon Austin to assume ownership and he was posting an affidavit of forfeiture in the local paper concerning the Jones 1 and 2 wells.

1459955771 2016-04-06 Production Wells No Violations On 3/22/16 David Bonar of Poorboy Exploration was ordered to stop producing the Jones 1 and 2 wells until he assumed legal ownership. On the day of my inspection I found that the production chart showed no recorded production after 48 hours of the notification. The chart was dated 3/17/16. On the day of my initial inspection the chart showed production through the fifth day. The chart currently shows production partially through the seventh day.
1465565718 2016-06-09 Production Wells No Violations On the day of my inspection I met Emergency Operations Coordinator Josh Schiering at the well site. The 100 barrel tank had been removed. The area of brine impacted soil in the field was graded out, seeded and covered in straw. The dike had been removed and the area was also graded out, seeded and covered in straw. The well was shut in at the separator back at the wellhead. I called David Bonar about the contaminated soil and he claimed that he took 27 or 28 tons of soil to the Athens-Hocking Reclamation Center landfill. This violation is resolved.
1500346351 2016-06-17 Production Wells No Violations On the day of my inspection I found that the restored tank battery site was still clean. The area was recently subjected to heavy rain and I found no signs of residual crude oil contamination coming up through the new soil.
1583791904 2017-04-11 Production Wells No Violations On the day of my inspection I found that the tank battery site was 80% covered in grasses and weeds. There were two bails of straw in the middle of the weeds. I found no signs of residual oil or brine contamination from the brine release last year. The field below the tank site had not ben plowed or planted yet. The only oilfield related materials left behind were a tank ladder and a 6 foot section of 2 inch plastic line. The plastic line to the meter run was disconnected and the chart box was empty. I called David Bonar with Poorboy to ask about his progress with assuming ownership of the Jones wells. He did not answer so I left a message.
1669139869 2015-07-14 Production Wells No Violations I found that the tank had identification posted for Poorboy Exploration, operator 9156. I called David Bonar. He claimed that they were working to get the well in their name. He also claimed that they had submitted production for the well.
1846400177 2018-04-25 Production Wells No Violations I recently spoke with David Bonar of Poorboy Exploration to ask if he has made any progress with assuming ownership of the Jones 1 and 2 wells. Mr. Bonar claimed that he has just about given up on taking the wells. He claimed that State will not work with him and he cannot locate the previous operator, Bill Caldwell. On the day of my inspection I found that the well was shut in and there were no tanks at the old production equipment site. The valve at the master meter was closed and there was not even a chart paper in the box. This well has been abandoned. There were no leaks or spills around the wellhead or separator and there were no signs of residual contamination at the old tank site.
1894914765 2016-03-22 Production Wells No Violations On the day of my inspection I found that the well was being produced with a plunger lift system. The tubing valve was open. One of the casing valves was open and the other was closed. There was pressure on the gauges. I could hear fluid and gas surging through the lines at the wellhead and I heard the rabbit clank into the rabbit catcher. There was a vertical separator back at the well site. There was pressure on the gauge. I also heard fluid and gas surging through the lines at the separator. The tank battery consisted of one 100 barrel steel tank. The load valves were equipped with plugs. I could hear gas and fluid surging through the lines at the tank battery and there was gas venting into the atmosphere from the hatches on the tank. There was identification posted on the tank battery for Poorboy Exploration. The tank battery was identified with the wrong permit number. An earthen dike was in place around the tank. I found no fluid leaks at the tank, separator or wellhead. I found a meter run with a chart at the entrance to the tank battery. The chart was dated 3/17/16 and it was labeled Jones 1 & 2. The chart showed production. No production has ever been reported for this well. I called David Bonar and met with his pumper Jerry Addy, who both openly admitted to producing this well. I told Jerry that the well had to be shut in until the ownership was straightened out.
2036457034 2016-04-22 Production Wells No Violations David Bonar of Poorboy Exploration is claiming ownership of this well and the Jones 2 well. On 3-22-16 Mr. Bonar was instructed to stop producing the wells until he has taken the proper steps to assume legal ownership. On the day of my inspection I found that the well was being produced. There was a new production chart, dated 4-14-16 that showed production through 4-22-16. The chart is labeled Jones 1 & 2. I tried to call David Bonar and his pumper Jerry Addy. I told them both that the Jones 1& 2 wells must be shut in until they assume legal ownership.
