1828891074 2010-08-18 Annular Disposal No Violations Witnessed the cleanup of brine contaminated soil(s) today. Chieftain Energy was instructed to remove all contaminated soils from the location. The cleanup began at the impacted location, which had been noted on the initial report, as the second location (closest to tank battery) measuring approx 77 x 11-25 (approx width). As the company excavated the soils, a field test was performed to evaluate Cl- concentration. Approximately 4 - 5 of soils was removed from this location and taken to Mr. Doug Kitchens shop for compost pile. The water table at this location was relatively high, which limited the amount of excavated soil. Furthermore, a Public Water Supply Line was routed through this location along with nearby Southeastern Natural Gas Line. Chieftain Energy placed calls to the respective parties for safety purposes.A 20 x 10 x 4-5 was excavated today. The source of the leak was from existing annular disposal line that was buried. Chieftain Energy repaired this section of line prior to received complaint. The soil was stockpiled today and will be removed tomorrow when, transport equipment arrives at the location.
1864773032 2010-07-23 Annular Disposal Violations Noted A landowner complaint was received alleging brine contaminated soils and dead trees. An inspection revealed two bare areas between the tank battery and the well. Both locations consisted of bare ground and dead/ stressed trees. The source of the release is from the annular disposal line described as black plastic with a diameter of approx 1.25. The line extends along the edge of creek bank and located above impacted areas. No leakage at time of inspection. The trees ranged from young to mature growth and approximately forty may have been impacted from the release. The majority of impacted trees are located along creek bank and next to black plastic. Overall distance to creek approx 50. The first location (closest to well) measured 100 6 (length) x 15 -20 (approx width). The second location (closest to tank battery) measured 77 x 11-25 (approx width). High Range Quantabs were placed at this location. The test was stopped after 7.2 units, which equals 2790 ppm (mg/L) Cl-. Note: The US EPA recommended value is 250 ppm (mg/L) Cl-. A voicemail message was left for Mr. Doug Kitchen, on his cell phone, today at 3:10 p.m. of complaint received, inspection results and time frame of two weeks for cleanup.
1865299603 2010-08-19 Annular Disposal No Violations Returned to the well location today to witness cleanup of brine contaminated soils. The excavation of the second location, as previously noted in the initial report was completed. Chieftain Energy was instructed to apply layer of horse manure and lime prior to placing new soil on excavated site. A second application of lime and manure would be mixed in on top along with seed and mulch. Witnessed application of lime prior to installation of new soil. Witnessed 2 loads of contaminated soil placed into trailer for removal from site. Horse manure will be applied tomorrow along with new soil. The next location referred to as the first location (closest to well), in the initial report, measuring 100 6 (length) x 15 -20 (approx width) will be excavated tomorrow. Only a test hole was excavated today to approx 3. The removal of soil from this location will also be limited by water table, public water line, gas line and nearby septic system. Therefore, only 2 - 3 of soil will be removed. The same procedure performed on second location will also be applied to this location. Note: Mr. Doug Kitchen agreed to a non-compliance for non-related wells today. Mr. Kitchen will provide a letter stating requirements and timelines.
1876014828 2010-08-12 Annular Disposal No Violations A follow-up inspection conducted with Mr. Dan Goins, Mineral Resources Inspector II revealed non-compliance.

A 1.25 black plastic line was found connected to the bottom of a 100 bbl saltwater tank. The valve for this tank was observed open. A trenched area behind (2) 100 bbl tanks contained this line (not yet covered) before burial to well. Dug below ground near the well head and observed the AD connection.
