Well Inspection Data

INSPECTION ID DATE DESCRIPTION COMMENT VIOLATION ID
1840930 2009-11-02 No Violations Noted Currently, site pad is in the process of completion. Inspected E&S plan and well sign located at entrance of site. Site design has been modified and initialized with changes. Filter fence and hay bails located along the perimeter of pad. Two pits dug at appropriate side wall ratio. Spud was called on 10/28/09 to the Williamsport DEP office. Conductor pipe has been set. Site has been seeded and straw covered surrounding the pad. According to PDC, rig will be starting on 11/16/09. Site located in high quality area. Well is going to be completed in the Marcellus. According to my conversation with Dave Hirko (Jackson twp manager), township was not notified of drilling event. DEP requested that PDC to contact township relative to ordinances (noise and work hours) and oil and gas township application. At the time of inspection, no E&S and IW issues. Adjacent properties have potable wells or springs as drinking water supplies.
1842252 2009-11-04 No Violations Noted At the time of inspection, the well was staked, not yet drilled. Contractors were actively excavating the well pad. The site was properly signed with E&S plan available for review. I noted that the site was in an HQ watershed; therefore, regulation requires the installation of increased/additional BMP¿s. A message was left with Jeff Clark on 11/10/09 discussing the additional BMP¿s. I observed the installation of filter fabric fence and culvert ditches. I am recommending that compost filter socks be utilized and/or additional BMP¿s with the filter fabric fence if it is not replaced. In addition, it is recommended that riprap be added to the culvert outlets/ditches until seeded vegetation produces growth. Disturbed areas and topsoil piles were temporarily seeded. Pits were constructed, but not yet lined. I am unsure of disposal method for drill cuttings; I plan to discuss this with PDC. No accelerated E&S issues were noted in relation to site or access road.

No accelerated erosion or sedimentation issues were noted in relation to well site or access road. Access road was adequately rocked and also noted the addition of rock to culvert in/outlets. Recommend that operator continue to monitor access road and township roadways for mud and when necessary have a broom truck onsite to maintain roadways. I received a message from Ed Gahagn of PDC on 12/04/09 that he had plans to get a broom truck onsite to remove all mud/debris from township roadways. While onsite I talked to Miles Pierson (MPG Drilling), who noted the fact that drilling operations were commenced from 11/25/09 and returned on 12/2/09 for the holiday and they were expecting to be onsite several more days.

Access road was stable, but over time it is recommended that operator add additional rock to prevent any erosion or sedimentation concerns that may arise.
