0745739471 2010-08-16 Plug / Plug Back No Violations I met with Bill Mitten and Berry Bowers on location. Pat Romine with VT Services was also on location as the welding contractor. The compression end cap that was placed on the wellhead by Columbia Gas was removed. When removed, it revealed that the well bore has been filled to the surface with gravel and screenings. A ten inch threaded nipple was then welded onto the wellhead by Pat Romine. There was no change in the well status as it continues to vent gas to the atmosphere at a very small rate.
0804890970 2010-06-01 Orphan No Violations I inspected this well location today at the request of Tom Tugend. The well status has not changed from the previous inspection. The temporary stack pipe is still open and venting a small amount of gas to the atmosphere. There is a new home that has been built on the lot approximately 75 feet from the wellhead.
1260801572 2009-12-11 Orphan No Violations I received a phone call today from Brenda VanCleave with the city of Pickerington concerning this well. She indicated that this casing was uncovered during the construction process of preparing to build a new home in this neighborhood. It was uncovered approximately two weeks ago and was emitting natural gas. She also indicated that Columbia Gas was contacted and responded by placing a steel compression end cap on the ten inch casing and shut the well in. I inspected the well location today. There is a steel wellhead secured to the well casing and the well is shut in. I was unable to attach a pressure gauge to this wellhead. The gas meter detected no gas. The well head is approximately 3 feet from the edge of the road and across the street from 861 Avalon Drive, Pickerington. I took photographs of well and surrounding area. RBDMS shows that this well was drilled in April of 1964 and plugged in March of 1967 with fireclay. I will refer this well to Mike McCormac with the Division. Also, I will advise Brenda VanCleave and Columbia Gas to open the wellhead and vent it to the atmosphere. Well records show 40 feet of 10 inch casing. Todays weather was below freezing and very windy.
1260887148 2009-12-14 Administrative Inspection No Violations I called Brenda Vancleave at 614-207-8350 today and advised her to contact Columbia Gas and request them to remove wellhead dead end cap. Columbia Gas had placed the cap on the wellhead approximately 2 weeks ago. RBDMS shows 40 feet of 10 inch casing in the well. I also advised her that a vent stack pipe, extending at least 9 feet above grade needed to be placed over the well head. I requested that I be notified at least 3 hours before the wellhead is removed so that I could be on location to monitor well activity.

There is no gas leak on the inside of the casing. A ripping knife tool was used to rip the pipe at 120 feet and 90 feet. A telegraph was detected at both locations. Several pieces of steel were recovered indicating that there were holes knocked into the sides of the pipe at both locations. The gas stopped leaking on the backside of the 7 inch and began leaking on the inside of the pipe. Bill Mitten and Berry Bowers were on location.
1617073465 2010-09-03 Plug / Plug Back No Violations This morning showed that there was still a small gas leak inside of the seven inch casing and none on the backside.

The wellhead was pumped on with fluid and the well circulated. The well bore was bailed dry from top of 300 foot plug to surface. A cement plug was set this afternoon using 4 yards of 9 sack grout. After cement was placed into well the mud pumped pressured up on the wellhead to 700 pounds in order to squeeze cement. The well was filled from 300 foot to surface with cement.
1657854457 2010-08-18 Plug / Plug Back No Violations Berry Bowers and Bill Mitten with plugging crew were on location today and began the process of drilling out this I&O well in order to properly plug it.

1956999428 2010-09-04 Plug / Plug Back No Violations This morning showed that the cement remained at surface level. There was evidence of a very small amount of gas bubbling at the surface inside of the 7 inch casing. The gas was not enough to maintain a flame, as Berry Bowers tried to light it. It was determined to weld a casing plate on the 10 inch with a 2 inch nipple on it. This would allow us to close the wellhead in with a valve and pressure gauge to see if there was sufficient gas to build any pressure.
1973589609 2010-08-26 Orphan No Violations A total depth of 327 feet was reached by 11am. 312 feet of 7 inch surface casing was run into the well.
