| 2359297 | Primary Facility | 2015-04-07 | Complaint Inspection | Violation(s) Noted | Found well head with wooden casing and pump jack in a wooden enclosure. Hand held GPS indicated latitude and longitude at the well head to be 40¿ 22' 0.60" N and 80¿ 25' 1.40" W. There is no tag on the well. Observed oil-saturated soil around well head. There is a vent pipe approximately 1 ½” in diameter attached to the well head. Well is connected to an upright, green tank about. Observed several gallons of light brown fluid (appeared to be brine/crude oil mix) in two areas at base of tank which appears to be leaking from the tank. There is no dike around tank. Also observed dead vegetation around tank. There is a hose, approximately 1” in diameter, connected to the base of the tank going to a small pond behind and downhill from the tank which then flows through a small trench into the brush. |

| 2425461 | Primary Facility | 2015-08-27 | Follow-up Inspection | Pending | Follow up inspection after receiving no response from operator on four (4) violations sent 4/8/2015. Oil-saturated soil remains around well head. Well is connected to an upright, green tank about 100 yards across Langleloth Road. There is no dike around tank. Also observed dead vegetation around tank. There is a hose, approximately 1” in diameter, connected to the base of the tank going to a small pond behind and downhill from the tank which then flows through a small trench into the brush. There is also a second green tank beside the upright tank, on its side, which is now connected to the upright tank. That appears to be the only change since last inspection. There has been no production reported on this well and it appears to be orphaned. |
