1423155877 2015-02-04 I met on location with Bill Stolarik, Monroe County Inspector, to inspect this leaking well.

David Reid, from Hannibal Industrial Park, had initially called and complained about a strong gas odor. Stolarik had done the initial inspection,. He found that when they excavated around what appeared to be the source area of the gas odor they uncovered this well. It was equipped with a cast cement plug in the top of the 8 5/8 diameter surface casing with what appeared to be fire clay below the plug. There was also a short joint (~3') of surface casing that was uncovered near the well. Stolarik took pictures showing the well before the excavated area filled with surface water.

The hole around the well was full of water the day of my inspection and no well casing was visible. Gas odor was considerable when standing downwind from the well. Our database records show this was drilled in 1977 to the Berea and plugged in 1994. A 500' fireclay bottom plug was set, then the 4.5 diameter casing was ripped and the well filled to surface with fireclay. The plugging was witnessed by a Division inspector. Pictures taken. SEM is 237.

1528794539 2014-12-08 On site inspection and response to complaint # 4875. On this day I met with property manager David Reed and we discussed the said well leaking gas to surface. Mr. Reed informed me that while excavating the area the odor of gas could be smelled and the site was uncovered and evaluated and the cast plug found still sitting on the 8.625 with gas leaking up to surface. Upon inspection it was observed that the pit around the well was under water and gas could be seen bubbiling up through the water that has acculimated with the recent rainfall. I informed Mr. Reid to leave the well under water to diminish the venting gas. ODNR Deputy Chief Dave Claus and District Supervisor Brent Bear were notified on this day.
