0065999332 2019-05-06 Preliminary Restoration No Violations On the day of my inspection I found that the drilling pit was still not completely closed. The steel casing that was used for the frac job was still in place. There were still four joints of casing laying on the ground at the well site. There were still piles of trash laying around the well site. There has been very minimal work done to complete the preliminary restoration at this site. I tried to call Dean Moran and he did not answer. I sent him a message to call me. Dean returned my call and said that it has been too wet. I told him that he has to do something at the site, regardless of the weather. He said that he would come out today. I told Dean that he has one week to show some progress. I will return next Monday to follow up.
0471533449 2018-07-10 Drill / Deepen / Reopen No Violations On the day of my inspection I found that Kenny Rich Drilling was moving in and rigging up. The drilling pit was dug but not lined. I did not find any sharp rocks or tree roots in the bottom of the pit. There was 50 feet of new 11.75 inch diameter casing on site. Kenny predicted that he would be spudding the well tomorrow. I told him that he needs to get a copy of the drilling permit posted in the rig before he spuds. I also told them that they need to line the ditch from the dump line to the pit, as the pit is located approximately 30 feet downhill from the well site.
0471790666 2018-08-15 Drill / Deepen / Reopen No Violations On the day of my inspection I found that Kenny Rich was drilling at a depth of 1900 feet. Kenny said that he has not been drilling for the past few days. He was getting some oil out of the Berea when he ran the bailer, but he said it was making more water than oil. The pit liner was in good shape and the fluid level was good. There were no leaks or spills around the drill site.
0533504098 2018-08-02 Drill / Deepen / Reopen No Violations On the day of my inspection I found that Kenny Rich was drilling at a depth of 1150 feet.

I noticed a 2 inch diameter hole in the pit liner that was covering the downhill portion of the dump chute. I brought it to Kennys attention and he said that they would get it re-lined. I tried to call Dean Moran but I got no answer. The liner in the pit was still in good shape and the fluid level was still well below the top of the pit wall. I sent a text message to Dean Moran requesting that he get a new section of pit liner put down below the dump chute today. He responded that he would get it taken care of.
0534116059 2018-11-27 Preliminary Restoration No Violations On the day of my inspection I found that there were no changes at the well site since my last inspection.

I contacted Dean Moran and told him that he cannot leave it open until summer. He has to figure something out to get it closed as soon as possible. The pit closure was due on 1/16/19. I also told Dean that he needs to get his identification posted on the tanks.

I also reminded Dean that he will need to have a bond log in the event that they cant establish circulation during the cement job. There were no holes or sags in the pit liner and the fluid level was well below the top of the pit walls.
1532356628 2018-07-23 Drill / Deepen / Reopen No Violations On the day of my inspection I found that Kenny Rich was drilling at a depth of 585 feet.

There were no sags or visible holes in the pit liner, and the fluid level was well below the top of the pit walls. I did find that there was some residual splatter when they were dumping the bailer that was starting to accumulate on the ground beside the dump chute. They were just starting to get into the Berea sand and there appeared to be a little oil in the fluid that was bailed from the hole. I brought it to their attention and Kenny Jr, tried to use a front-end loader to build up a dirt mound on the side of the dump chute to deflect the overspray when they dumped the bailer. I called Dean Moran to discuss the situation and come up with a remedy. Dean said that he had some sheet metal that he would bring out to create a shield to deflect the overspray back into the lined dump chute.

The well was pumping and the three 100 barrel steel tanks were diked. The drilling pit was still open and it was full. It was not full enough to run over, but it was within two or three inches. I told Dean that he needs to get a load pulled out of the pit right away, before we get more rain tomorrow. He said that he would get someone out here today or first thing in the morning. The main route, SR 60, into Layland is flooded in both directions from CR 19. A water truck can still access the site from the west on CR 19.

I tried to call Dean Moran but he did not answer his phone. The fluid level in the pit was covering the area where I found the hole last week. I could not tell if the hole had been repaired of not.
