Well is set-up for production with a meter, pump jack and one brine tank in secondary containment. Site is restored and stable with a good growth of vegetation. This site was transferred to Howard Drilling from Timothy A Keck on 3/5/2015. Production report submitted for 2016. A release of crude oil and brine to Sloan Run and Piney Creek occurred on 6/3/2014, there where areas of the crude and brine found on the hillside and on the bench adjacent to Sloan Run. The contaminated area on the bench was covered with dirt from the bank and hillside above by Mr. Keck. The spill policy procedure and reporting was not followed by Mr. Keck. The release of crude/brine and the subsequent clean-up was/is solely the responsibility of Timothy Keck. There is no evidence of any recent release of brine or crude oil on this site.

I noticed a car in the driveway, and the paperwork was still attached to the door. I knocked on the door and a female who identified her self as Maura, Mr Keck's daughter answered the door.
