47-079-____
-- No API #3
A
cluster of wells without API numbers is at the southern end
of the long main well access road. This is the third, after
47-079-00702, and just before 47-079-01155.
This
is a new well whose site was bare of vegetation. We visited
in November and there were no signs of seeding. The pipework
at the site already needs paint.
Trash
in the form of scrap pipe on the pad and what looked to be
an abandoned portolet needs to be hauled away.
The
50-barrel steel tank needs the required secondary containment
dike.
In
spite of being a new well, the access road was already showing
ruts. Since there was no vegetation on the site the exposed
mineral soil was eroding and the culvert for the road was
partially plugged. There was no sediment control at the outlet
end.
An
API number is required by state regulations to be displayed
at the well. This is probably 47-079-01364 as determined by
studying maps n the Office of Oil and Gas.
