Snow has been removed to ensure structural integrity of bmps are not compromised). Vegetative blankets placed onsite, soil pile, and sediment traps. Ditches rock lined. No accelerated erosion or sedimentation issues observed. No pits onsite, observe five frac tanks/closed boxes. It appears that tanks were used for drill cutting disposal, but during this inspection, it is observed that drill cuttings have been placed outside of the tanks(s) on a torn structurally unsound liner. As a result a violation is being issued for failure to ¿contain all pollutional substances and wastes which are used or produced during drilling, altering, completing, and plugging the well¿ as stated in 78.56.  Spoke with Chief, Matt Barch 1-11-11 Accompanied with Marc Maestra during inspection.

| On 1/11/11, dept received phone call and pictures from Matt Barch, of Chief demonstrating that roll off boxes containing cuttings have been removed. Based on pictures received, it was observed that some cuttings were still on unstable liner on pad, Mr. Barch assured me that this would be removed prior to rig moving back on site.  Then on 1/17/11, dept received preliminary written response (see attached).  An inspection was conducted on 1/20/11, site sign and Es plan onsite. Since last inspection, pad had been completely fenced in and 24hr security and emergency personal placed onsite. Rig currently setting up, pad covered with felt and then liner. Dept was unable to observe any remains of cuttings as all boxes and cuttings appear to have been moved off pad. No accelerated erosion or sedimentation issues noted. Access road stable. Accompanied by WQS Marc Maestra. Recommend that operator continue to closely monitor/maintain all bmps and temporary containment tanks.
