| On May 4, 2011, I stopped at the Rice¿s Hulk site in Amwell Township to check on their progress towards addressing the problems found earlier in the year.
 
Because of the exceptionally wet spring, Rice has been able to do very little in the way of addressing the problems.  Some BMPs were installed and some seeding was done.  Also, a surveying team was on-site taking measurements to address the two slips.

| On May 18, 2011, I stopped at the progress at Rice¿s Hulk site.  Very little work was done on site, again because of the wet weather.  I noticed the pipeline area was cleared but work had not yet started.  I also noticed the water in the freshwater impoundment was nearly above the 2-foot freeboard allowed.

I called Dave Miller and we talked about the work and the freeboard issue.  He told me he would watch the impoundment¿s water level.  He also told me that the plans for the slides were in the final engineering stages and that they would be submitted to the Department soon.

2) The silt fence was down by the corn field.
 
 
3) There are ruts and mud throughout the right-of-way.
 
 
4) The silt fence is still not installed properly.
 
 
5) Many of the breakers on the pipeline right-of-way going up the hill from 10 Mile Creek are washed out.
 
 
6) The re-vegetation is very sparse and in some areas it looks like it wasn¿t reseeded at all.
 
 
7) At the top of the hill it appears not to be seeded at all and there is a 200 yard area with no breakers in it.
 
 
8) In the water withdrawal area (from 10 Mile Creek) some of the E&S controls have not been maintained and now have holes or are knocked down.
 
 
I called Dave Miller about these problems told him they needed worked on.

The pipeline was seeded and mulched as was the extra entrance.  I also suggested that the extra entrance be roped off to keep vehicles off of it.
 
 
 
The area is better but work still needs to be done.

Inspection Data

Inspections Performed

Inspection ID Inspection Category Inspection Date Inspection Type Inspection Result Inspection Comments
1915536 Primary Facility 2010-09-08 Complaint Inspection No Violations Noted
1963301 Primary Facility 2011-03-07 Routine/Complete Inspection Outstanding Violations - No Viols Req'd Met with Dave Miller and Derrick Rice of Range to talk about the problems I found during my March 2nd inspections. I found no new problems and got some insight in the old ones.
1963305 Primary Facility 2011-03-08 Routine/Complete Inspection Outstanding Violations - No Viols Req'd Stopped at the site with WQS, Byron Miller (Washington is his county) so he could see the problems. Byron had some additional questions about the pipeline.
1963328 Primary Facility 2011-03-18 Complaint Inspection Violation(s) Noted This inspection was partially in response to a complaint. Gauged progress on formerly mentioned problems and discovered more BMP problems. Made plans to meet with Dave Miller on March 22, 2011.
1963353 Primary Facility 2011-03-21 Routine/Complete Inspection Violation(s) & Recurring Violations Found several violations on the pipeline project. Will reinspect with supervisor March 22, 2011.
1963358 Primary Facility 2011-03-22 Routine/Complete Inspection Outstanding Violations - No Viols Req'd Returned to site with Supervisor, Vince Yantko and met with Dave Miller. Numerous photographs and collected a water sample for possible AMD.
1970126 Primary Facility 2011-04-14 Compliance Evaluation Outstanding Violations - No Viols Req'd No new violations. Slow progress being made. Working on engineering solution for slides.
1970307 Primary Facility 2011-05-03 Compliance Evaluation Outstanding Violations - No Viols Req'd On May 4, 2011, I stopped at the Rice¿s Hulk site in Amwell Township to check on their progress towards addressing the problems found earlier in the year.
1995788 Primary Facility 2011-05-18 Routine/Partial Inspection Outstanding Violations - No Viols Req'd On May 18, 2011, I stopped at the progress at Rice¿s Hulk site. Very little work was done on site, again because of the wet weather. I noticed the pipeline area was cleared but work had not yet started. I also noticed the water in the freshwater impoundment was nearly above the 2-foot freeboard allowed.
1995811 Primary Facility 2011-06-09 Routine/Partial Inspection Outstanding Violations - No Viols Req'd On June 9, 2011, I stopped to check on the progress of the 10 Mile Creek to Hulk section of pipeline.
1995828 Primary Facility 2011-06-30 Routine/Partial Inspection Outstanding Violations - No Viols Req'd On June 30, 2011 I stopped at the Hulk pad to gauge progress. The original stream crossing was repaired but the sediment fence near the 10 Mile Creek withdrawal area was still down.
1995883 Primary Facility 2011-07-29 Routine/Partial Inspection Outstanding Violations - No Viols Req'd Inspected the site with Water Quality specialist Supervisor, Vince Yantko. Some progress on original problems but others need addressed. There appears to be no E&S plan for the Hulk fresh water impoundment to Hulk pad part of the pipeline. We talked with Dave Miller and Well Tech personnel.
1995935 Primary Facility 2011-07-29 Routine/Partial Inspection Violation(s) & Outstanding Violations I looked for the Hulk Impoundment to Hulk Wellpad plans at both the Captain Planet Crossing and at the 10 Mile Creek Crossing and could find none. My calls to Mr. Miller make me think that they do not exist. This is an additional violation.
2002675 Primary Facility 2011-08-17 Routine/Partial Inspection Outstanding Violations - No Viols Req'd Checked site, but no operations going on during inspection. Wetland and stream crossings
2002689 Primary Facility 2011-08-25 Routine/Partial Inspection Outstanding Violations - No Viols Req'd
2002700 Primary Facility 2011-08-31 Routine/Partial Inspection Outstanding Violations - No Viols Req'd I checked the area with DEP Biologist, Bill McCune. Bill confirmed that stream crossings had occurred and that a wetland was encroached. The drilling company (East Coast Underground) was on-site trying to pull a plastic pipe through the hole they drilled.
2002707 Primary Facility 2011-09-14 Routine/Partial Inspection Violation(s) Noted Violations noted for 5 unpermitted stream crossings and one wetland impact.
2008328 Primary Facility 2011-09-30 Routine/Partial Inspection Outstanding Violations - No Viols Req'd Actively boring under the stream and wetland.
2008336 Primary Facility 2011-10-04 Routine/Partial Inspection Outstanding Violations - No Viols Req'd Still working at the site.
2014348 Primary Facility 2011-10-14 Routine/Complete Inspection Outstanding Violations - No Viols Req'd It appears that the construction is done at this site. However, no restoration work has been done.
2018084 Primary Facility 2011-11-02 Compliance Evaluation No Violations Noted Checked the pipelines around the Hulk pad. The slopes were vegetated and stabilized. The active roads to the water withdrawal to Little Ten Mile creek will need stabilized, but these are still in use for at least awhile. This inspection closes out the original Hulk violations covered by the March 21, 2011 NOV. There are still NOVs associated with this site and related pipeline that will be closed separately.
2022766 Primary Facility 2011-11-02 Routine/Complete Inspection Outstanding Violations - No Viols Req'd At inspection Rice's contractor wsa putting geofabric and rock down on the access road.
2022771 Primary Facility 2011-11-17 Routine/Complete Inspection Outstanding Violations - No Viols Req'd It appears that all crossing work is done. The site is stabilized but there is still some equipment left.
2022883 Primary Facility 2011-11-30 Compliance Evaluation No Violations Noted The crossing work is done. The site is mostly stabilized with some minor & continuing maintenance work to be done.
2025846 Primary Facility 2011-12-01 Routine/Complete Inspection No Violations Noted Replaced bridge deck. Considered a repair.
2033115 Primary Facility 2011-12-13 Complaint Inspection Violation(s) Noted No discharge problems but NOV sent for erosion & sedimentation issues.
2033285 Primary Facility 2012-01-11 Compliance Evaluation No Violations Noted On January 11, 2012, I stopped at the Hulk pad to check on the progress Rice made toward addressing the problems I discovered on December 13, 2011.
2033327 Primary Facility 2012-01-11 Routine/Complete Inspection No Violations Noted On January 11, 2012, I stopped at the Hulk pad to check on the progress Rice made toward addressing the problems I discovered on December 13, 2011.
2096083 Primary Facility 2012-08-07 Routine/Complete Inspection No Violations Noted Checked E&S and found no problems.
2097232 Primary Facility 2012-08-27 Routine/Complete Inspection No Violations Noted On August 27, 2012, I checked the pipeline that runs between Rice’s Hulk fresh-water impoundment and Rice’s Captain Planet site.
2161920 Primary Facility 2013-04-03 Routine/Complete Inspection No Violations Noted On April 3, 2013, I stopped at Rice’s Hulk pad for a routine inspection. Currently Rice has three wells in production at this site 125-24210, 125-24214 & 125-24212. Additionally, Rice was preparing to drill 125-26985, 125-26986 & 125-26987 but they were waiting on those permits.
