Crews in process of cleaning site. informed operator that work still needs to be done near solids handling area. Observed spill over on ground. Operator to scrape area and dispose of properly. Maintain and increase secondary containment in solids handling area. Also improve containment where truck loading area is.
1961279 Primary Facility 2011-03-30 Follow-up Inspection Violation(s) Noted FUI on reported spill of 20 bbls of synthetic oil-based mud (ABS-40). Spill ocurred at 3:00 am. Spill occurred due to improper fluds transfer into mud mixing tank. Overflowed tank. Mud spilled onto plastic. Crews on site cleaning up spilled mud by hand and vac trucks. DEP will follow up on clean up operations.
1985316 Primary Facility 2011-06-27 Drilling/Alteration Violation(s) Noted Bubbling observed in cellar. Drilling complete. DEP will investigate bubbling further after cellar cleaned out. Excessive drill mud/cuttings on plastic and has been tracked off containment onto pad and up access road. Tears in plastic observed. Operator to get crews to clean up site asap and notify DEP upon completion for follow up inspection.
2007319 Primary Facility 2011-09-29 Routine/Complete Inspection No Violations Noted
2014411 Primary Facility 2011-10-25 Routine/Complete Inspection Pending DEP arrived on site at 11 am. The purpose of the inspection was to check the status of the wells and note any activity on site. At the time of inspection crews were on site installing new plastic secondary containment for upcoming frac. Six wells have been drilled on location (1H - 6H). Al six wells are currently shut in and not vented. Inspection of Baker 1h revealed minor bubbling around well head. Due to the level of fluid in the cellar, the source could not be determined. It is requested by the DEP that the source of the leak be identified. The Operator is to notify the DEP when this work is to be completed. The Operator shall provide a sumary of the findings, and a description of what reparis need to be completed. According to Chapter 78 Section 78.86 Defective casing and cement...the Operator has the option to correct the defect or submit a plan to correct the defect for approval by the DEP within 30 days.
2053176 Primary Facility 2012-03-13 Routine/Complete Inspection No Violations Noted During the investigation, I used an Extech, ExStik (2) pH, Conductivity, Salinty and TDS meter to field screen several areas of ponded water on and off the containment liners on the Well Pad and in the site sediment trap below the Well Pad. Conductivity readings in the sediment trap indicated a high reading of 2.18 milliSiemens/cm. Salinity indicated 1.5 parts per thousand and Total Dissolved Solids indicated 1.5 parts per million and 1.5 grams per liter. Conductivity, Salinity and TDS readings indicated over the limit, with the limit on the meter being 19.99 milliSiemens/cm, in the duck pond secondary containment where the pump was stored as part of the filtering operations. I also observed a petroleum sheen inside this containment area as well. A small area of ponded water located just outside this same area indicated Conductivity, Salinity and TDS readings of over the limit. The ponded water was on the Well Pad off secondary containment.
2077189 Primary Facility 2012-06-18 Routine/Complete Inspection Violation(s) Noted See inspection report for full details.
2357015 Primary Facility 2015-04-01 Routine/Complete Inspection Pending Cellar has little water with slight bubbles, unable to determine if gas, about 1690 lbs on production casing, vent pipe open and venting to tank, will request a vac truck be present while we are there to determine if gas is present.
2414127 Primary Facility 2015-10-08 Follow-up Inspection No Violations Noted At time of inspection, arrived on site at 11:30 a.m., the wells were shut in with a crew working on the production lines, the cellar had water at the bottom with no bubbling detected, the (9x5) vent pipe was open and venting to a tank, there was 0psi on the production casing and 0psi on the production line. I took a walk around the site and everything looked OK.
2451822 Primary Facility 2016-01-21 Routine/Complete Inspection No Violations Noted The Department was on site to inspect the Baker well pad (ESX10-115-0029). The wells associated with the pad are as follows:

115-20471 115-20470 115-20469 115-20468 115-20467 115-20466 115-20465

The site was stable and well vegetated with no apparent erosional issues. There were no violations.

If there are any issues please feel free to contact me

2509560 Primary Facility 2016-07-28 Routine/Complete Inspection No Violations Noted The Department was on site to inspect the Baker well pad (ESX10-115-0029). The wells associated with the pad are as follows:

115-20471 115-20470 115-20469 115-20468 115-20467 115-20466 115-20465

The site was stable and well vegetated with no apparent erosional issues. There were no violations.

If there are any issues please feel free to contact me.

2511737 Primary Facility 2016-08-17 Site Restoration No Violations Noted The Department was on site to conduct a Notice of Termination on the Baker well pad (ESX10-115-0029 (1)). The wells associated with the pad are as follows:

115-20471 115-20470 115-20469 115-20468 115-20467 115-20466 115-20465

The site was rocky, but where there was enough soil for growth, vegetation was meeting or exceeding the 70% vegetative standard.  There were a few remaining BMPs (silt sock) and these were promptly removed by Carrizo employees.  Off the access road to the Impoundment and Well Site the landowner constructed an earthwork gun range, well vegetated and stable.  This is causing no impact to the site or access road.  
The area was stable and had no erosional issues at this time and it is recommended that this Notice of Termination be APPROVED. 

There were no violations.

If there are any issues please feel free to contact me.

2512474 Primary Facility 2016-08-22 Routine/Complete Inspection No Violations Noted At time of inspection, arrived on site at 13:00p.m., the cellar had water at the bottom with no bubbling noticed; the (9x5) vent pipe was open and venting into a tank. There was 5007psi on the production casing and 1217psi on the production line. I took a walk around the location and everything looked OK.

I left the site at 13:40p.m.

2606519 Primary Facility 2017-06-21 Routine/Complete Inspection No Violations Noted At time of inspection, arrived on site at 10:35a.m.

The cellar had water at the bottom with no bubbling noticed. The (9x5) annulus vent pipe was open and venting into the production tank. There was 526psi on the production casing and 460psi on the production line. I took a walk around the location and there were no obvious concerns noticed. I left the site at 11:20a.m.

2713020 Primary Facility 2018-03-28 Routine/Complete Inspection No Violations Noted At time of inspection.

The well was in production. There was water 4' below grade in the cellar with no bubbling noticed and no gas detected in the remainder of the cellar. I took a walk around the location and there were no obvious concerns noticed. There were no violations noted.

2817021 Primary Facility 2018-12-18 Routine/Complete Inspection No Violations Noted At time of inspection.

The well was in production. There was water 4' below grade in the cellar with no bubbling noticed and there was no gas detected in the remainder of the cellar with a MSA Altair 5X multi gas detector that was calibrated on 12/3/18. The permit number for the 4H on the entrance sign was incorrect (see photo #2). It was 155-20468 and should be 115-20468. I contacted Jesse Bonnice of BKV to have it corrected. I took a walk around the location and there were no obvious concerns noticed. There were no violations noted.

2851751 Primary Facility 2019-03-11 Routine/Complete Inspection No Violations Noted I performed a Routine Complete (RTNC) inspection of the Baker Well Pad on March 11, 2019. The weather was sunny and relatively warm, around 38 degrees.

The access road was a bit muddy but not unstable. The access road is quite long, passing some small logging operations, as well as a target shooting range situated along its length.

The well pad surface was plowed and mostly wet but stable. The wellheads were encased in a carport structure. They were surrounded by clean gravel and were properly labeled.

The containment surrounding the production tanks and apparatus was mostly empty and had sufficient freeboard.

The cut and fill slopes of the site were rocky and stable. Where there was sufficient soil, there was adequate vegetation. No areas of instability were noted.

The impoundment on site was full to capacity. It would be recommended to draw down the impoundment to prevent overflow and possible resulting E&S issues.

There were no violations noted
