47-079-____
-- No API #4
A
cluster of wells without API numbers is at the southern end
of the long main well access road. This is the fourth, just
after 47-079-01155.
This
is a newer site that when we visited still had the gray-white
paper pulp much visible. The site had recently been seeded
but germination on the pad was spotty, nonexistent where driven
over. An entry on our blog deals
with the bulldozer tracking we saw at this site.
The
50-barrel steel tank is heavily corroded in spots with quarter-sized
blisters. The tank doesn't have the required secondary containment
dike.
Trash
was present at the site on the newly seeded pad and also as
pieces of black plastic culvert tossed down the hillside.
The one culvert had its inlet end smashed by machinery and
no sedimentation control on the outlet end.
The
access roads here as elsewhere in the area were in need of
maintenance.
An
API number is required by the state to be displayed at a well.
This well is probably 47-079-01363 as determined by studying
maps in the Office of Oil and Gas.
