| At the time of inspection, the well was drilled.  The well was properly signed with E&S plan onsite for review. No accelerated E&S issues were noted in relation to site or access road. Proper E&S controls were observed and implemented onsite. Area was not yet restored as Menhorn #2 was currently under construction and shares well pad with Menhorn #1.

| At the time of inspection, well was drilled but not in production. Site was properly signed. In May 2010 an application was received for inactive status, as the operator plans to investigate the potential for an injection disposal well. Drilling was completed on April 25, 2009. The site has not yet been fully restored due to drilling activity with Menhorn 2H. No IW OR E&S issues were noted in relation to well site or access road. Note: Final restoration activities were underway during inspection. Pits have been backfilled and pad has been rocked all other disturbed areas were being mulched and seeded.
