This
well is between 47-079-01288 and 47-079-01299, on a separate
gated road, down into a hollow. The road itself is a remarkable
technical achievement that has been allowed to deteriorate
because of lack of maintenance. A special page is devoted
exclusively to this road because it shows the whole range
of problems we saw at the sites we examined.
This
well has the most beautiful location of all the wells we visited,
facing west across the hollow to another ridge.
The
well had two minor leaks, a fluid leak at the Christmas tree
and a small leak on the wall of the 100-barrel tank. A whittled
stick was used to keep a linkage open and this isn't proper
maintenance.
The
tank had a dike but it isn't large enough for the tank's capacity,
nor could we see a rainwater drain.
Vegetation
on the site was good on the fill slope, spotty on the pad
and inadequate on the cut slope to keep it from slipping.
Drainage control and deeper rooted vegetation need to be used
on the cut slope.
