| 0241524403 | 2014-04-15 | Administrative Inspection | No Violations | We received a call from the land owner, Mrs. Lowe, asking when the well would be plugged. I checked with our office and found that the file had already been submitted to the Orphan Well Program and this well had been slated to be plugged but that project had been cancelled. I called to give her this information, apolozied for the delay, explained that the Program was focusing on emergency situations and that it may be 2-3 years before he well would be plugged. I will ask the DOGRM inspector for Pike County to do a new SEM. |

I talked to Mrs. Lowe about the plugging process and that the orphan program is by priority and that it could take 5 years or more to get this well plugged. Mr. Lowe has removed the wooden shed from around the well and has replaced it with a small white structure that resembles a dog house. No other changes to the well status were observed. The well is shut in and disconnected from the line. No leaks were observed during the inspection. |

| 1120721580 | 2017-06-01 | Orphan | No Violations | Orphan well field work with DOGRM staff members Jake Glascock, Nate Lane, Josh Schiering, and Paul Carder to evaluate this orphan well site for hydrogeological, safety, environmental, and radiological considerations. Upon inspection, it is observed that the well is not currently leaking oil, gas, or brine, however there is still a 3 wide by 3 long brine scald area present around the wellhead. The landowner, Cathy Chandler, states that the driveway directly west of the well location is family land will be acceptable to use for entry to the well. A separate right of entry form will be requested from Mr. Steven Lowe, the owner of the driveway. The plugging project which includes this well is scheduled for bid in September. |

I called Jerry on 8-28-2007 at 9:30 am. Jerry informed me of a fire near the well and his concerns about the potential hazards of the well. I told Jerry that I am still working on locating the well owner C.A. Nickell. We discussed the possibility that the well could be an orphan well and that the time frame for plugging a orphan well like this one that is not leaking could be 5 years or more. I told Jerry that I will call him when I find out any new information. |

Mary could not understand why the well has not been plugged. I explained the process of the matrix and how a well is scored. Mary also asked for the program managers phone number. I gave her the phone number for the New Philadelphia office. I filled out a new matrix, and pictures. This information was uploaded to the M drive. |
| 1477662384 | 2016-10-13 | Orphan | No Violations | Upon inspection, it is observed that the status of this orphan well has not changed since the last inspection. The well is still idle and incapable of production. The original complaint was levied by former landowner Jerry Lowe. The property is now owned by Timothy Lowe and Cathy Chandler. Since the last inspection, the structure which used to house the well has been removed and the well is now surrounded by a temporary fence. The well is not currently leaking, however there is a 2 x 3 area surrounding the well casing which no longer supports vegetation growth. New photos will be added to the original orphan well program referral for the well. The Site Evaluation Matrix score is now 155. |
