2355265 Primary Facility 2015-03-19 Routine/Complete Inspection No Violations Noted Due to the cellars being covered, it was not possible to determine if any wells have been drilled.
2565048 Primary Facility 2017-02-27 Routine/Complete Inspection No Violations Noted No producing wells. No violations cited.
2656798 Primary Facility 2017-11-03 Routine/Complete Inspection No Violations Noted One well drilled and in Regulatory Inactive Status. No production equipment on location. Pipeline run to location. Site stable. No erosion.
2728395 Primary Facility 2018-05-10 Drilling/Alteration No Violations Noted One well and three cellars on location. The regulatory inactive status 5H well recently had work done down hole. Containment remains around well head from work over rig. A puddle of water on containment returned a reading of 0.053 mS/cm. A puddle of water off containment returned a reading of 0.199 mS/cm. No well tag present on 5H well head and the Department recommends installation of one once activities are complete.

Last E&S inspection completed by operator on 5/09/2018.

2794528 Primary Facility 2018-10-25 Routine/Complete Inspection Pending Arrived onsite for a routine inspection after fracturing operations with Sara Metz and Jon Sassi, both DEP. Chesapeake (CHK) company man David Gregory was onsite during the inspection. Crown Oilfield was also onsite welding pipeline for the installation of production equipment.

We spoke with Mr. Gregory for several minutes. During our conversation he explained that the well had been fractured and the fracturing plugs drilled out. However, the well had not yet been flowed back. The flow back should probably start in the next few weeks. He also informed us that the same containment was used during fracturing and completion of the well.

During our inspection, areas for production equipment were being marked out and the production pipeline was being welded. This site with have the new fiberglass produced water tanks that CHK has begun using on other sites. Overall, the site vegetation was over 70% with a few exceptions along the inside of the pad containment berm (Photos #6, 7). These areas should be addressed

2796448 Primary Facility 2018-10-29 Follow-up Inspection Pending At 11:02 on 10/29/18 Eric Hottenstein, Environmental Supervisor for Chesapeake (CHK), contacted Jon Sassi (DEP) regarding a routine inspection performed by Department representatives Mike Jurbala, Jon Sassi, and Sara Metz on 10/24/18, ID# 2794448. During the 10/24/18 inspection the Department observed an area of high conductivity water (>20.00 mS/cm) on and off secondary containment. Mr. Hottenstein informed Jon that CHK used a vac truck to remove the high conductivity water on containment and the pad surface on 10/24/18. A total of 14.6 gallons of water was removed from an area 3” wide X 5” long X 2” deep. Leidos was onsite conducting conductivity screening with a YSI meter. They were using a 1:1 soil to distilled water ratio for the soil conductivity measurements. The soil readings were around 100 µS/cm. Leidos then collected 2 confirmation samples. The containment did not appear to be compromised when it was removed. It is possible that fluid spilled on containment overflowed the berm due to heavy rainfal
2806689 Primary Facility 2018-11-27 Administrative/File Review Violation(s) Noted Sample results were received from sample ID# 0719-001, 0719-002, and 0719-003, all collected on 10/24/18. Sample ID# 0719-001 and 0719-002 were collected from containment and an area immediately off containment. These results show elevated levels of strontium, barium, and chlorides which are indicative of a release of wastewater to the pad surface. Sample ID# 0719-003 was collected at the pad corner to serve as background and shows much lower levels of the mentioned analytes.

The Department recommends reporting all spills or releases within 2 hours of discovery.

The Department also recommends that Chesapeake pursue remediation under Act 2 due to the unknown volume of the release.

The result of this Administrative inspection is Violations Noted.
