Inspection Data

Inspections Performed

Inspection ID Inspection Category Inspection Date Inspection Type Inspection Result Inspection Comments
2418691 Primary Facility 2015-10-23 Drilling/Alteration No Violations Noted Butch’s Rat Hole Service auger rig
2425052 Primary Facility 2015-10-29 Preoperation Inspection No Violations Noted On 10/29/15, I performed a preoperation inspection for the Fowler site in response to a request from the operator and made the following observations:
2426964 Primary Facility 2015-11-20 Drilling/Alteration No Violations Noted Falcon Drilling Rig #29
2431540 Primary Facility 2015-12-07 Drilling/Alteration No Violations Noted Falcon Drilling Rig #29
2435595 Primary Facility 2015-12-22 Routine/Partial Inspection No Violations Noted On Tuesday December 22nd, 2015, I conducted a routine/partial inspection of the Fowler Well Site located in North Bethlehem Township, Washington County with John Parry (DEP) following an operator requested site meeting concerning potential modifications to the current permit. The following observations were made:
2440791 Primary Facility 2015-12-31 Follow-up Inspection No Violations Noted On 12/31/15, WQS Supervisor John Carson, Environmental Trainee John Parry, and I performed a follow up inspection at the Fowler Well Site in response to questions raised by the operator in regards to a 12/22/15 violation at the same site and made the following observations:
2440915 Primary Facility 2016-01-14 Drilling/Alteration No Violations Noted Patterson-UTI Drilling Rig #349

Moved onto this well on 1/9/16 and resumed drilling at 7192 ft. KB. Note: This is a Conservation Well. Operator drilled vertical wellbore to 7736 ft. The top of the Marcellus formation was at 7550 ft. The Onondaga formation was tagged at 7600 ft. The wellbore was plugged back to 6640 ft. on 1/11/16. KOP was at 6826 ft. EOB on the curve was at 7942 ft. MD (7569 ft. TVD). Currently drilling ahead at 11,980 ft.

2443274 Primary Facility 2016-01-22 Drilling/Alteration No Violations Noted Patterson-UTI Drilling Rig #349

TD was at 15,370 ft. MD (7532.14 ft. TVD) on 1/15/2016. The 5 ½” casing was set at 15,357 and cemented to surface with 10 bbls returned.

Note: This is a Conservation Well.

2473592 Primary Facility 2016-03-31 Administrative/File Review In Compliance with Policy An equipment malfunction caused some production water to be released onto containment. The containment had previously been vacuumed on March 30, 2016 due to recent heavy precipitation. The remaining rain water mixed with the production water within containment. On March 31, 2016, some heavy equipment inadvertently ran over the berm of the containment, thereby damaging it and releasing the estimated five gallon mixture of rain water and production water from containment and onto the pad. Their incident response team was notified and responded by vacuuming up the fluids and removing the impacted material for disposal. It was later estimated that three to four gallons of the mixed fluid had been released.

No impact to water had occurred. The incident was promptly reported to the Department and the area remediated. The incident has been determined to be In Compliance with Policy (ICP). No violations are being cited at this time.

2530327 Primary Facility 2016-10-13 Incident- Response to Accident or Event In Compliance with Policy Incident response conducted in response to operator notification of a release.
2536500 Primary Facility 2016-03-08 Compliance Evaluation No Violations Noted On 3/8/16, I performed a follow up inspection at the Fowler site accompanied by DEP engineer Emmanuel Nwaobilo in response to previous violations noted on 12/22/15 and 12/31/15 and made the following observations:

•Site plans showing the updated access road were not present on site at the time of inspection. No violation, remediation requested. •A drainage culvert on the south side of the access road was poorly constructed and at the time of inspection allowing sediment laden water to leave the site. Remediation recommended, no violation.
