Municipality shading: number of "facilities", with each well
counting separately
(includes the red dots):
gray: 0
pale turquoise: 1

(Color coding may differ from one issue to the next.)
(Note if a project spans multiple municipalities -- e.g. a
pipeline -- it will show in the count for each municipality.)
The number of facilities also follows the municipality name in
brackets.
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
marked in the text as "[Approximate, Speculative]
Cross-hatching:
Environmental Justice Areas
Yellow triangles: Compressor Stations
Crosses: Unconventional well permits (may not have been drilled)
Green: "Natural areas", e.g. state game lands, state forests

Notes:
All of
the wells Herrington Unit 16H-20H are shown as "Proposed But Never
Materialized" in a DEP
Facility Search for "Herrington", program Oil & Gas,
county Fayette. Readers are reminded that applications of type
"Notification" may occur when an operator is finished with a site
and do not necessarily indicate new work.
---
According to the Well
Details Report, the Atlas conventional well DOLOVACKY 1 was
never in production.
---
The Dicarlo Well Pad was inspected for Site
Restoration on 08/27/2013, with comment noted "Restoration
extension request granted for site until 1/21/15. Site stable."
Even though the extension has expired,
there does not appear to have been a subsequent inspection.
---
According
to the Well
Details Report, the SPRUELL
HEIRS UNIT 1 well was never in production. This well was SPUD
[drilling started] on 6/8/2000. eFACTS is showing the
authorization record for the permit to plug this well as Pending;
one assumes this is due to a delay in data entry for eFACTS.
---
There are no authorization records for the
Range Resources well Rumbaugh 1 more recent than the
original Drill & Operate Well record, which was issued
on 5/6/1999. Are they supposed to apply for a permit to plug a
well? We're seeing lots of authorization records for well plugging
lately ...
There is a compressor station called RANGE
RESOURCES APPALACHIA/RUMBAUGH STA which heretofore I have
not shown on the maps because its location in DEP records (e.g.
Facility Record) is not even in Fayette County. Based on satellite
imagery and Fayette County property records, I am assigning this
facility a location of 40.084655,-79.636567 and will now show it
on all maps. I believe this geolocation is correct, but it is not
official.

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.portal.state.pa.us/portal/server.pt/community/pa_environmental_justice_areas/20991>
<http://www.portal.state.pa.us/portal/server.pt/community/dep_enhanced_public_participation_policy/20988>
). 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.
