Notes:

DEP seems to have two site records named "CHICO UNIT 1H OG WELL"; the one above is listed as "Springfield Twp", the other is listed as "Springhill Twp" which I believe is correct. This appears to be a data entry error at DEP, but I'm not certain of this. The two sites seem to be in exactly the same location. Why there should be a new permit for Authorization 911399 is a mystery. "Springfield Twp" sure looks like an error.

The Kennedy Compressor Station in Dunbar Twp seems to be something new. DEP lists it with the address 480 UPPER SANDY HOLLOW RD, VANDERBILT, PA  15486. Location information above is based on this address rather than DEP published latitude & longitude. This makes the 25th compressor station in Fayette County (of which some are apparently inactive.) With the Kennedy Compressor Station, Dunbar Township will have no fewer than *7* compressor stations:

site_id |                     site_name
---------+---------------------------------------------------
 495891 | DOUGLAS OIL VANDERBILT STA
 560559 | BELDEN & BLAKE CONNELSVILLE COMPRESSOR DUNBAR TWP
 605668 | ADAMS COMP STA
 636940 | LAUREL MTN MIDSTREAM/ JOSEPH COMP STA
 664227 | RANGE RESOURCES APPALACHIA/SGL 51 COMP STA
 716537 | DUNBAR COMPRESSOR STA
 758295 | KENNEDY COMP STA

The Douglas Oil Vanderbilt Station and Range Resources Stations may be inactive (but I'm not certain of this.) Even 5 compressor stations in this one township is a large number.

The January status report for the Transco Atlantic Access Project contains numerous references to Fayette County. On December 8, 2011, a coordination meeting occurred at the DEP SW Regional Office. There were numerous participants, including a representative from the Green County Conservation District; there doesn't seem to have been any representative from Fayette County. FAYETTE COUNTY IS BEHIND THE CURVE ON THIS PROJECT.

---

eNOTICE records are likely to list the same permit multiple times, as that permit moves through the DEP process.

Oil & Gas Wells designated with a site a number and the letter H typically designate horizontal wells.

Disclaimers:

This compilation from the above sources was done by hand using copy and paste and may omit relevant permits.

Does not currently include water supply permits.

Erosion & Sedimentation permit records do not currently include latitude and longitude. Where I am publishing latitude and longitude with E&S permits it is by inferring an associated well permit and using published latitude and longitude for the well. It is possible I may be inferring the wrong well site.

Municipalities are shown from eFACTS records on the DEP web site. The DEP has been known to list a municipality incorrectly.
