| 2639310 | Primary Facility | 2017-09-19 | Routine/Complete Inspection | No Violations Noted | Routine inspection of Samson Exploration's C5 well pad on September 19, 2017. No one was onsite during my inspection. This vertical well has recently been plugged. At this point no plugging certificate has been issued by the Department for well 023-20122. Tanks and production equipment have been removed from the site. There is no ESCGP associated with this well permit because it falls under the 5 acre threshold. E&S controls have been put in place for final restoration. The site is to be restored back to approximate original contour along with the access road leading to the well pad. |

| 2744969 | Primary Facility | 2018-06-22 | Routine/Complete Inspection | No Violations Noted | Department representative Sue Herzing conducted a routine site inspection at Samson Exploration's B Well Pad on June 22, 2018. This site is not covered by an ESCGP; the total project area is approximately 2.1 acres. There is one vertical Marcellus well (023-20122) that was plugged in the Fall 2017. The P&A well is identified with a tagged well monument. The site has been restored back to approximate original contour. The culvert pipe has been removed and the natural drainage-way has been restored. During the inspection I observed a spring located at the top end of the restored well pad causing erosion issues and little vegetative growth (see photos). I recommend addressing the erosion issues and re-seeding where needed. Compost socks remain in place. A post plugging well site restoration report will need to be submitted for this plugged well.

The P&A well is identified with a tagged well monument. The site has been restored back to approximate original contour. The culvert pipe has been removed and the natural drainage-way has been restored. During a previous site inspection in June 2018, I observed a spring located at the top end of the restored well pad causing erosion issues and little vegetative growth. Samson's contractor has addressed the erosion issue by installing an under-drain system along the upper portion of the restored well pad. The under-drain systems consists of a 3-4 ft. deep ditch with gravel placed on the bottom of it, a 4" black corrugated pipe installed, then more grav |
| 2796451 | Primary Facility | 2018-10-30 | Routine/Complete Inspection | No Violations Noted | On October 30, 2018 Department representative Sue Herzing conducted a routine site inspection at Samson Exploration's Well Pad B with Steve Trujilo of Samson and Michael Race and Joe Kunst of ARM Group. This site is not covered under an ESCGP; the total project area is approximately 2.1 acres. There is one vertical Marcellus well (023-20122) that was plugged in the Fall 2017. The P&A well is identified with a tagged well monument. The site has been restored back to approximate original contour. A post plugging well site restoration report has been submitted and approved by the Department. During my previous inspection in August 2018, I recommended that the operator keep E&S compost sock in place until the vegetation achieved a better root system. Since then, all compost sock has been removed. The site appears stable and exceeds 70% uniform, perennial, vegetation.
