| 2556448 | Primary Facility | 2017-01-19 | Routine/Complete Inspection | Violation(s) Noted | On 1/19/2017, the Department performed an inspection of the Dunn SH Smith# 224 oil well site. Present at time of inspection was Melvin Delaney and Dave Thomason . The site is located in Richhill Twp., Greene County. The inspection was performed as a site inspection was a routine inspection during service work on the well.
The well head is not labeled. The well head is leaking oil and gas and the soils around the well head are stained and the vegetation is dead at the well head and down gradient from the well head as well as down gradient from the dike at the oil storage and brine storage tanks. The drain at the dike is leaking and the soils near the dike are impacted with dead vegetation. The soils surrounding the first production dike have a conductivity of approx. 18 mS. This reading indicates that the soils in the area are impacted by production fluid. The production fluid tanks on site are full of paraffin and brine. A second dike for brine storage is full of water, and is discharging over the |
| 2561059 | Primary Facility | 2017-02-02 | Follow-up Inspection | In Compliance with Schedule | On 2/2/2017, the Department performed an inspection of the Dunn SH Smith# 224 oil/gas well site. Present at time of inspection was Von Sage (Dunn), Margaret Williams (Greentree), and Jason Schultz (GZA). The site is located in Richhill Twp., Greene County. The inspection was performed as a follow up inspection related to violations noted during an inspection of the site on 1/19/2017.
Mr. Sage representing the operator has stated that planning for remediation of the site has begun. I informed Mr. Sage the expectations of the Department inregards to the remediation of the impacted areas on the stie and repair to the well head to prevent further pollution and possible impacts to the groundwater at the site. Mr. Sage met with Greentree Services and GZA Environmental Services about starting to remediate the polluted site. |
| 2584808 | Primary Facility | 2017-04-12 | Compliance Evaluation | No Violations Noted | On 4/12/2017, the Department performed an inspection of the Joe Dunn O&G, SH Smith #224 oil and gas well. Present at time of inspection was Steve Gerritsen (SE Tech) and Von Sage (Operator). The site is located in Richhill Twp., Greene Co.
The operator has brought a small backhoe to the site to dig soil test pits for site characterization and to begin developing a remediation plan for the cleanup of the site. 4 test pits were excavated and soil samples were taken along with field testing before the hydraulic line on the backhoe broke and approximately 1/2 gallon of hydraulic fluid was released to the ground. The operator hand excavated the impacted soils from the hydraulic fluid release and stored on site in bags for disposal. Site characterization will continue when the operator contracts with a second piece of equipment to complete the work. |

The inspection was a routine inspection during characterization of the site for remediation.
The operator has brought a small backhoe to the site to dig soil test pits for site characterization and to begin developing a remediation plan for the cleanup of the site. 4 test pits were excavated and soil samples were taken along with field testing down gradient from the brine and oil storage tanks. A test pit and soil sample was also excavated near the well head. A water sample was taken at the first ground water receiving point. Field conductivity readings at the ground water receiving point indicated background levels. A second small sump filled with water down gradient from the well head was screened for conductivity in the field which |

The site is located in Richhill Twp., Greene Co. The inspection was a routine inspection post characterization and remediation of the site.
The operator has removed the oil and brine storage tanks from the site. The operator has excavated impacted soils from the site and has disposed of the material at an approved Department disposal site. The operator has taken confirmatory samples and is awaiting the results from that sampling to begin backfilling and installation of containment and storage tanks on the site. Site was stable with installed E&S BMPs. |
