| 0326516981 | 2012-04-03 | Production Wells | Violations Noted | The Division received a landowner complaint alleging idle well on property for several years. An inspection revealed that the well was equipped with a pumping unit and tied into a nearby approx 150 bbl tank with no earthen dike. The well showed no signs of recent pumping. The identification displayed was not legible and improperly identified as Permit No. 3526. A review of the production reports for this permit number showed that the last year for commercial production was 2008. Note: Well owner reported 40 bbl oil from 2001- 2008 and mistakenly filed under the wrong permit number. A GPS reading was obtained for the well and tank battery location. On 4/3/2012, the well owner was notified by telephone of the inspection results and instructed to plug or produce well; if placed back into production provide new identification, build new earthen dike, and file statements of production.
