1981505 2011-06-13 No Violations Noted The site is utilized as a water processing facility for flowback operations. Flowback material goes through a filtering process for separation of solids of liquids. Flowback water is pumped into a centralized impoundment for storage and then pumped into a another centralized impoundment blended with fresh water. Water is pumped through underground lines to nearby well pads to be used for fracing operations. During the inspection DeSoto Rig #9 was in the process of drilling Greenweig #3H, Permit number 42-015-20422. Several small tears were observed throughtout the course of the containment liner. For future operations it is recommended to have a larger buffer zone in the solids handling area and chemical storage area. Both areas were directly next to fill slope and berm of well pad, with minimal room for spilled material to remain on containment and potentially the well pad. Also it is recommended to improve housekeeping and patching of the containment liner at the site.

2074892 2012-06-11 Violation(s) Noted Upon review of the groundwater sampling results, it was noted that groundwater monitoring well MW-4 exhibited elevated concentrations of chloride ranging from 160,000 micrograms per liter (ug/l) to 234,000 ug/l. In addition, the groundwater data collected prior to operations and introduction of water in the impoundments exhibited elevated concentrations of 210,000 ug/l from a sample collected on 7/16/2010 and 200,000 ug/l from a sample collected on 8/4/2010. Drilling operations at the Greenzweig 1V occurred from 3/8/2008 to 3/24/2008 and at the Greenzweig 1H drilling operations occurred from 9/20/2008 to 10/19/2008. Based on the elevated chloride detected in the groundwater samples and the drilling operations pre-dating the groundwater monitoring, site characterization activities are warranted at the C-Pad. 641358

2074984 2012-05-15 Pending On May 11, 2012 Southwestern and the Department held a conference call in reference to samples collected at the C Pad site after issues with the tank farm were suspected and stressed vegetation was observed at the rock lined swale location down gradient of the tank farm and parallel to the 40,000 barrel capacity centralized impoundment, otherwise termed the smalller impoundment.

During the inspection, I used an Extech, ExStik (2) pH, Conductivity, Salinty and TDS meter to field screen the road side seep, the seep area outside the tank farm on the slope, the rock-lined swale, and underdrain pipe below the samller impoundment. Conductivity readings in the road side seep indicated a high reading of 12 milliSiemens/cm; 9 milliSiemens/cm inside the tank farm, 10 milliSiemens/cm on the slope outside the containmant area, 9 milliSiemens/ cm in the rock-lined swale and 10 millSiemens/cm in the underdrain below the impoundment.

2098001 2012-09-05 Violation(s) Noted On 8/27/2012, the Department collected a sample of the waste material at the C-Pad. The collection of the sample was in response to the elevated concentration of chloride detected in monitoring well MW-4 and the subsequent Notice of Violation dated June 12, 2012. Southwestern’s groundwater monitoring well MW-4 exhibited elevated concentrations of chloride ranging from 160,000 micrograms per liter (ug/l) to 234,000 ug/l. On 8/27/2012, Southwestern mobilized to the C- Pad to implement the work plan. During the installation of test pit (1) and (2) dark gray material was encountered at depths ranging from approximately (6) to (8) feet below ground surface (bgs). At test pit location (2) a sample of the dark gray material was collected by the Department and submitted for laboratory analysis. Synthetic plastic liner was not observed at the locations of test pit (1) and (2). Upon review of the sample results, it was noted that the C-Pad test pit location (2) sample had elevated concentrations of arsenic, barium, bromide, chloride and iron. 648576
