site being permitted (e.g. locating a well pad or pipeline by the
known location of a well.) Locations labeled beginning with "~"
and ending in "[?]" are approximate and speculative based on
inferences using on-line property and lease records. These are

INSPECTION_RESULT_DESCRIPTION: No Violations Noted
INSPECTION_COMMENT: "Well appears equipped for production. Well head
surrounded by security fence.
At time of inspection Department observed a 10'X10' area lacking
vegetation (photo #1). This area is approximately 688' from the well
head. This area surrounds an approximately 16"" deep hole (photo
#2).
It appears that air/gas is
escaping from this hole. Department contacted
operator by phone from site. Operator rep Mark arrived and stated
their brine collection line runs through this area. Mark also stated
a water line and another gas line are located near this area.
Department contacted Diversified Oil and Gas Co due to their
ownership of a well on this property. Diversified Rep arrived on
site and shut in their well. This did not cause the air/gas to stop
escaping from the hole.
DEP WQS Cindy Witham contacted DEP OGI Rick Lewis. Mr. Lewis arrived
on site and recorded a reading of 100% natural gas with a 62s meter.
Department requests operator ensure area is safe, replace/repair
line, and remediate area per current regulations. Mark stated
Keyrock Energy rep Doug Wadsworth is on the way with a sniffer and
maps of the buried lines.
15:34: Operator rep Doug Wadsworth contacted Department by phone.
Mr. Wadsworth stated the line is owned by Keyrock Energy and that
the line was isolated and the leak stopped. Mr. Wadsworth also
stated he is awaiting a call back from PA 1Call before digging up
the line and repairing it. Department recommends operator continue
to update Department in regards to this matter.
An inspection will be conducted at a later date to ensure line is
replaced and area is remediated. Violation(s) may be forthcoming
pending future inspections."

Notes:
The site BAER WELL SITES was the subject of a
prior Notification application, which was denied on 3/20/2018. (See
the 03/25/18 issue of this bulletin.) We
can't really tell without having the actual application documents,
but it is likely this is a "termination notice" for the well pad
Erosion & Sedimentation permit. This site was the subject of
successful litigation against Chevron by the split-estate surface
owner, and became famous when a surface owner placed her ancestor's
ashes at the property entrance, as required by her religion, and
Chevron went to court to have the ashes taken down.

The well Bradish Unit 2 noted above is a
Coalbed Methane Well. Fayette County's Coalbed Methane Wells are
heavily clustered in Dunbar and Bullskin Twps. There are two maps
under "More Maps" above that show the Coalbed Methane Wells as red
squares.

The location of the Dunbar Compressor
Station, both in DEP records and as notified to Fayette County by
Laurel Mountain Midstream, appears to be incorrect. The location
shown above has been determined using property records, and we
believe it is correct. For details see
the
Notes in the 4/16/17 issue of this bulletin. The
"sub-facility" records shown above seem include ones for equipment
which LMM claims in
its
Act 14 notification have been removed.
------------------------
DEP defines an environmental justice area
as "any census tract where 20 percent or more individuals live in
poverty, and/or 30 percent or more of the population is minority".
(See:
<
http://www.dep.pa.gov/PublicParticipation/OfficeofEnvironmentalJustice/Pages/default.aspx>).
There are supposed to be enhanced public participation requirements
for permits in environmental justice areas, but news of this
actually ever happening is scarce. In Fayette County, the entirety
of Springhill, Nicholson, German, and Georges Townships are
environmental justice areas, as well as a large part of Dunbar
Township. DEP's policy document on public participation guidelines
for environmental justice areas is located here:
<
http://www.elibrary.dep.state.pa.us/dsweb/Get/Version-48671/012-0501-002.pdf>
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 in part by hand
using copy and paste and in part using automated methods; it may
omit relevant permits.
Parcel data is provided via the tax
records search web page offered by the Fayette County Assessment
Office (
http://property.co.fayette.pa.us/).
Presumed Parcel Id links are subject to availability provided by
that agency and associated web sites. Presumed Parcel Ids are
determined as the
mapped parcel containing a given latitude
and longitude, are a best effort determination which is subject to
error, and are not official. In cases where a facility is leased and
there is a separate parcel id for the lease, if this parcel id is
not separately mapped, the parcel id shown will be the id for the
enclosing parcel. Parcel owners may be surface owners only and may
or may not have any relationship to oil & gas facilities.
Does not currently include water supply permits. Does not include
landfill permits even though many such are for Marcellus Shale
waste. (It is not possible at this time to distinguish which
landfill permits are for Marcellus Shale waste and which are not
without doing File Review for each permit.)
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.
