-1115074561 2009-07-13 At 4:40 PM, a telephone call was placed to Mrs. Annette Booth, Mr. Ray Hartman's Daughter, 740-596-4925. No answer. Therefore, a voice mail message was left stating for her to contact me in regards to this well. My cell phone number was also provided. Mrs. Booth returned my call at 5:38 PM. Mrs. Booth states that her dad does not own the property that the well is situated on. Furthermore, he only owns the lease because it was tied in with the bar. She was informed that he has been operating/pumping the well, and has verbally confirmed ownership of the well to me.

A meeting was setup with her for 7/20/2009 to discuss registering with the DMRM as a well owner. Mrs. Booth was informed of the fluid and oil inside the dike. Absorbent pads could be used to retrieve oil or pumped to remove brine. She was informed that the 100 bbl tank further described as the bigger tank on top of hill contains a hole in bottom. Mrs. Booth asked what could be done. She was told that tank could be flipped, but would depend on topside condition. She states that they could look for a new tank.
