Inspections Performed

Inspection ID Inspection Category Inspection Date Inspection Type Inspection Result Inspection Comments
2355065 Primary Facility 2015-03-26 Incident- Response to Accident or Event Violation(s) Noted
2404072 Primary Facility 2015-08-31 Compliance Evaluation No Violations Noted
2702137 Primary Facility 2018-03-07 Routine/Complete Inspection No Violations Noted This is an injection well that is currently being worked over. They fixed a hole in the 2" tubing and are now running 1" pipe to flush down the tubing and clean it out. They did not have a control and disposal plan on site and I reminded them that there needs to be a plan on site during any service work,plugging,drilling operations.
2752087 Primary Facility 2018-07-16 Incident- Response to Accident or Event Violation(s) Noted On 7/13/18 at approximately 1345 hrs., I received a phone call and email from Tim Oknefski with ARG Resources, reporting a crude oil and injection fluid release at their Lamont 011 well (API 047-21349) in Highland, Twp., Elk Co. According to Mr. Oknefski, approximately 5 gallons of oil and 20 gallons of production fluid were released from a 2 inch line. The release was mitigated and contained. A vac truck was on site as well to remove the fluids. Mr. Oknefski stated that the impacted soil was still in place and would be removed upon receipt of a roll-off dumpster.

On 7/16/18 at 0905 I conducted an inspection of the release site. The area had been backfilled with the impacted material. Soil conductivity ranged from 2.0 to 3.0 mS. The area had not yet been seeded and mulched.

The release constitutes violations of 78.54, CSL 402(b), SWMA 301, SWMA 302(A), and SWMA 610(1). These violations will be resolved upon submission of tipping receipts for the impacted material and temporary stabilization of t

2786334 Primary Facility 2018-10-09 Routine/Complete Inspection Violation(s) Noted EPA production report shows zero production for 2017. Well is abandoned.
2805146 Primary Facility 2018-11-20 Compliance Evaluation No Violations Noted On 11/19/18 the Department received tipping receipts via email for the disposal of impacted soil from a gathering line release that occurred on 7/13/18 at ARG Resources, Inc's Lamont 011 well site (API 047-21349). The release and associated violations were documented in inspection ID 2752087.

On 11/20/18 at 0905 hrs., I conducted a compliance evaluation of the release site. Upon inspection, impacted material had been removed from the site. Soil conductivity readings around the release site were all between 100-400 uS/cm, equivalent to background readings. Site stabilization could not be evaluated at the time of this inspection due to snow cover.

This inspection resolves violation numbers 822306, 822307, 822308, 822309, and 822310 from inspection ID 2752087. There are no additional violations noted for this inspection.
