Inspection Data

INSPECTION ID	DATE	DESCRIPTION	COMMENT	VIOLATION ID	VIOLATION CODE	VIOLATION COMMENT
1370348289	2013-06-03		Inspection this day with Josh Garland, Gene Chini, and Jason Blocker of AML. We found a hole in the ground, flowing water at the rate of 5-10 bbl/min, estimated. We dug around the hole with shovels and found wood boards encasing the hole and trending in a northeast direction with the water source seemingly more parallel to the ground surface instead of straight vertical, as an oil well would trend. The boards were about 1.5 in thickness and formed a square about 8 across to encase the hole. Josh had to reach down in the hole to find this as the wood was not showing from the surface. The ditch that had been dug over to Sunday Creek, to drain the land surrounding the hole, was flowing and stained orange as coal mine drainage often looks. We all 4 concurred that while we weren't sure what was happening, that we all agreed it was not oil-field related. I have used #61523 to record this inspection but the old maps show #61523 was plugged and approx. 350' from this hole. We examined the ground with a metal detector to try and find a location for #61523 but none found - the well was probably plugged prior to 1950's. Jason was going to take evidence and information back to the coal group and have them further investigate the situation. Oil and gas will do no further work on the hole. This is area of historic coal mines, the mines lying only 106' below the ground surface.
1432102996	2013-05-30		I received a complaint of leaking brine water from a hole on the Angle farm. Josh Garland, inspector, went out and inspected the area to determine the cause of the leak. Josh felt it was not an oil/gas well, due to the presence of square wooden conductor and the orange-ness of the water but did sample the water and concluded that it contains some (850 ppm) chlorides. He inspected a 2nd time after the coal company said they felt it was an oil well. Gene Chini and I will meet Josh on 6/3/13 to examine the hole and try to determine it's origin, who the responsible party is and what to do to correct the problem. From examining the old and current maps, it looks like the hole is 175' from #2668 and 310 from well #1523 that is showing plugged on the old OFG map. The entire area has been subject to an underground coal mine about 150' below ground level. My current thought is that it could be an old vent shaft. Chlorides should not be this high and are unexplainable at this time. Update will come on 6/3/13.
