Municipality counts are based on the way the permit is listed by
DEP; DEP has been known to get a municipality wrong.
Locations in brackets identify a
precise location used to locate a
surrogate for the actual
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

GOVERNOR'S OFFICE
Regulatory Agenda
[47 Pa.B. 4922]
[Saturday, August 19, 2017]
Executive Order 1996-1 requires all agencies under the jurisdiction
of the Governor to submit for publication semi-annually an agenda of
regulations under development or consideration.
The agendas are compiled to provide members of the regulated
community advanced notice of regulatory activity. It is the
intention of the Administration that these agendas will serve to
increase public participation in the regulatory process.
Agency contacts should be contacted for more information regarding
the regulation and the procedure for submitting comments.
This Agenda represents the Administration's present intentions
regarding future regulations. The nature and complexity of an
individual regulation obviously will determine whether and when any
particular regulation listed (as well as any considered subsequent
to publication of this Agenda) is published.

Oil and Gas Program Fee
25 Pa. Code Chapter 78a |
Quarter 4, 2017,
EQB Consideration, as Proposed |
This rulemaking amends the fees paid by operators of
unconventional wells. DEP must review the adequacy of
established fees every three years. The current fee review
indicates the need for a fee increase to provide for the
administration of the oil and gas program. (2012 Oil and Gas
Act, Clean Streams Law) |

Environmental Protection Performance Standards for
Conventional Oil and Gas Operators
25 Pa. Code Chapter 78 |
Quarter 3, 2018,
EQB Consideration, as Proposed |
This rulemaking proposes to amend the Oil and Gas
regulations applicable to conventional operators (Chapter
78) to update the environmental protection performance
standards related to oil and gas activities. (2012 Oil and
Gas Act, Clean Streams Law, Solid Waste Management Act, Dam
Safety Encroachment Act, Land Recycling and Environmental
Remediation Standards Act, Radiation Protection Act,
Unconventional Well Report Act, Act 126 of 2014) |

Control of Emissions from the Oil and Natural Gas Industry
25 Pa. Code Chapter 129 |
Quarter 2, 2018,
EQB Consideration, as Proposed |
This rulemaking proposes to establish emission limitations
and other requirements codified in 25 Pa. Code Chapter 129
consistent with reasonably available control technology
(RACT) recommendations of the Control Technique Guidelines
for the Oil and Natural Gas Industry finalized by the EPA on
October 27, 2016. The proposed rulemaking would establish
RACT requirements for volatile organic compounds (VOC) and
other pollutants from existing oil and natural gas
production facilities, compressor stations, processing
plants, and transmission stations. Upon promulgation, the
final-form regulation will be submitted to the EPA for
approval as a SIP revision. (Air Pollution Control Act) |

Notes:
Chevron has apparently not yet applied for any
Drill & Operate Well permits for the Liggett Well Pad. (The
Erosion & Sedimentation (E&S)
permit
ESX15-051-0008 was issued on 10/26/2015.) One can guess that
Chevron is preparing to resume work on this site, and we can expect
Drill & Operate Well permit applications "soon". Unfortunately,
in the circumstance where there is an E&S permit but no Drill
& Operate Well permit applications, there appears to be no
available source on the Internet for the exact location of a well
pad; in this situation the only way to get a precise location for a
well pad is from the Notice of Intent (NOI) which is sent to the
county and municipality as part of the Act 14 notification.
---
The Hoehn Unit well pad and the Howe Unit well
pad have the same Site ID (
739303, HOEHN
WELL SITES ESCGP-EXPEDITED) in DEP
records. This appears to be a mistake. There are cases of two well
pads on the same parcel that are almost next to one another (e.g.
Sanfilippo in Redstone Twp) where it seems reasonable to put two
well pads into one "site", but in this case it's hard to
understand why DEP did this. The two parcels are not even
adjoining, and the parcel for Hall-Hogsett is between them! Having
the same site for both Hoehn and Howe clearly seems to be a
mistake.
---
The Regulatory Inactive Status for
Hall/Hogsett 13H calls for a deep dive into the inspection reports
for this site. Add Hall/Hogsett 13H to the list of the many places
in Fayette County where Chevron has experienced cementing
problems, as the
inspection reports for this well show:

INSPECTION_COMMENT: On Sunday, September 9, 2014, the Department
received a telephone call from Chevron reporting
a spill on their Hall-Hogsett site. According
to the follow-up phone calls, Chevron was cleaning out vessels on
secondary containment and had the vessel sealed. When the moved
that vessel off of containment, the hatch opened spilling a cement
water mix on the pad (mostly water). Less than a barrel actually
made it to the pad and it was immediately clean-up. This spill was
reported in a timely manner and was immediately cleaned up. It
conforms to the Department’s spill policy.

(Note that if there is a spill which is "properly" reported to DEP
and "cleaned up properly" before the DEP inspector arrives to have
a look, the inspection result will show "In Compliance
with Policy". Anyone scanning inspection reports for
violations only will not see it.)
INSP_PRMRY_FAC_ID: 764261
SITE_ID: 736604
OWNER_CLNT_ID: 279986
INSPECTION_COMMENT: The Hall-Hogsett site contained a large area
on the slope to the left side of the pad upon entry that exhibited
rills and little vegetation. It is recommended that this area be
addressed to prevent further accelerated erosion. There were also
residual waste containers and a non
haz waste barrel on containment that was in disrepair. The
containment has multiples holes and a berm breach. Waste
barrels should be labeled for contents and dated to comply
with storage requirements for waste.

INSPECTION_COMMENT: On 06/17/16 at approximately 1000 hours I met
with Curtis Small and Nathan Isler at the Hoehn, Howe, Hall
Hogsett Unit to discuss third party impacts to their restoration
work. Chevron has documented on multiple occasions third party
impacts to the site restoration efforts. The purpose of the
meeting was to meet with Chevron representatives to witness the
damage done to their most recent restoration attempt. Previous
damage had been repaired and hydroseeded and the following day a
third party that is not the land owner nor had permission to
access the land owner’s property impacted the repaired area with
an all-terrain/off road type vehicle. After discussions it was
decided that Chevron is going to compile and submit a document for
the Department’s review demonstrating the multiple attempts to
restore and repair the third party impacts that have prevented
them from submitting for an NOT.

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.

Marcellus Shale waste disposal
injection wells in Pennsylvania are regulated directly by EPA, not
DEP. Notice of any new permit applications will appear at the
above web address. I'm not aware of any subscription service
to be notified of such applications. I'm not aware of any
Marcellus Shale waste disposal injection wells in Fayette County
(yet ...) but we need to monitor this page for future
applications.

Disclaimers:
This compilation from the above sources was done by hand using copy
and paste and 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.
