At 6:45 pm an Aveda truck driver was unloading his last load of the day unassisted and without authorization. As the pump for the rig was being hoisted up the roller board the line broke dropping the pump approximately 7'. No one was in the area but the pump sustained damage. It bent the skid, which throws the pump out of alignment, damaged the electrical motor and damaged the gear end. It will be about four days before a replacement can be put together.

The employee has been terminated for not listening to instructions and going against policies of all three companies involved. After the incident a safety stand down was preformed.

Moving center tub out away from the rig.

Charles (Night Tool Pusher) was operating the John Deere front loader to move the center tub away from the rig to pull the HCR off the mud cross. Placed forks underneath the center tub on ODS of the rig. While backing up the front steer tires transitioned from the matting boards to the cellar plates. Deflecting the cellar plates the forks tilted down and slid the center tub off. Tub slid down and pushed the corner of the rig mats into the 5H cage. The impact moved the cellar cage 2' contacting the 2" casing pressure line. Pulled the threads off the 2"nipple between the valve and elbow releasing ~600 psi of pressure. Charles immediately moved the fiberglass cellar cover and closed the valve.

While moving the center tub my forks tilted forward after driving onto the cellar plate. Causing the tub to slide off the forks and push the matting boards into the cellar cage. I heard a hissing noise and immediately moved the grating and closed the 2" valve in the cellar.

Move crane into position to pick up a load.

Crane moved int position to pick up a load without a spotter. When into position the operator swung crane to the right and struck a parked vehicle with the left corner of it's counter weight.

Could hear the crane hit the truck and then seen the Damage.

DTE's pipeline has a pressure release valve at the interconnect below the Kassay Pad. The valve is set to "pop off" at 1200 psig. Our Kassay pad has a pressure safety high on our pad set at 1150 psig. So, our pad should shut in before the pressure release valve goes off shutting in our pad. The pressure safety high had been disabled and the pressure on the pipleline got above 1200 psig, causing the pressure relief valve to actuate. This venting of gas startled the water truck drivers and they ESD's the pad, which was the correct form of action. Going forward the pressure safety high on the pipeline pressure for the Kassay pad will not be disabled.

Loading a frac tank onto a bobtail truck to haul from the Boggess Pad to the Cummins Pad.

During a lightning shutdown, Edward Sine arrived on location without checking in with the job site supervisor and began loading an empty frac tank that had a guide wire attached to the top of the tank going up to the weight bucked attached to the derrick climb assist. He than proceeded to pull forward and noticed that there was something pulling on his load. He stepped on the brake and clutch and the pad eye located on the top of the tank at the point of attachment broke releasing the cable which snapped back and wrapped itself around the boom winch at the crown of the rig as rig personnel returned to work from being sheltered from the storm. Work was immediately stopped and the situation was investigated by Rig manager(Steve Tichey) and Co. Man(Josh Grim).

Frac Operations. Sand trucks delivering sand to pad

From Mike Inman
Last night around 8:50 PM, I received a text from a Daybrook driver. He asked what was wrong with the female at the lower guard shack. He said that she sounded panicked and had fear in her voice. The roustabout was also down there, he was working on the light plant for the lower guard shack. Ryan with PSC, and myself headed down there. The roustabout was returning to pad, he stopped me, and said that the female guard was scared and was having some issues. We arrived at the guard shack and you could tell she had been crying and was scared. The light plant had tripped out again and the shack had no power. Her boyfriend was also at the shack. I told him to leave and Ryan and myself asked her what was wrong.
She told us that Matt who drives the “Green Weenie” for AEP had caused her issue. She said that he had asked her for a cigarette. He said he would pay for it and she said that it was fine. She went into the shack to get the cigarettes. He came up the window, she handed the cigarette to him through the window. He then grabbed her wrist and said maybe I can fit through the window or something to that affect. She pulled away and said she would slam his hand in the window. Matt then left to go to pad with the load of sand. That is when the light plant died. She had very poor cell service, no CB, and no light. She had called her boyfriend who only was 20 mins away, she also put a crowbar in the shack with her. Matt was then leaving the pipe yard, he pulled up and said I hear you are having CB issues, but since you already have a guy here, I am not going to help you.
We then placed her at the Kassay Pad guard shack, Water transfer has a guy on the Kassay, and the roustabout also stayed at the Kassay pad. She felt safe with that. PSC contacted AEP and told Matt not to return to pad. The AEP dispatcher asked Matt what had happened, Matt said he just asked to buy a cigarette and it must be a conspiracy against him. It was also confirmed that his truck was on the in-out sheet that GMS maintains.
Johnna Dickey has worked for GMS for less than 2 weeks. Her Supervisor is Jeff Weimer at 304-216-7707. Keep in mind that she did not report this because she had only worked there for a short time and was concerned about her job. This was reported to us by other employees looking out for her. I also told her that if she ever felt threatened again, she should immediately drive to pad for help.

I received a complaint from Dave Dillie on July 3,2017. He alleges NNE has caused the floor in his trailer to start to wave, He said he checked the frame, where he could access it with the level, but agreed the frame was level. The allegations started that by drilling under it we changed the water table, which then caused the trailer to settle. After further discussion and the talking through the process of drilling, he claimed it was the sand truck traffic beating on the ground that caused the trailer to settle. I told him I would discuss it with the office and we would get back to him. 7-6-2017 I went out to look at the fence that we needed to reinstall and his daughter asked what we had decided on the trailer. I told her the issue was still being discussed and we would get back to them. Mrs, Dillies cell phone #304-692-5613

Rigging down water transfer after drillout operations concluded.

Jeff Wilson had suspicion that Jessie Botti, an SES employee, was under the influence of something based on a conversation and observing his actions, so he called the employee's supervisor to determine. The supervisor had reasonable suspicion that he was under the influence and took him for a drug screen. The employee had a BAC of 0.23 (legal limit is 0.08) and was immediately terminated.

"This morning on Mepco I arrived on location and had a boy from Select approach me and started asking me questions about his work for the day. He didn't seem quite right so I kept an eye on him . He seemed like he was having trouble holding his train of thought. When he would bend over he would lose his balance and have to catch himself.
I contacted Cassey and told him I didn't want to accuse the boy of being under the influence of anything not knowing the boy. I asked Cassey to send someone to location that knew him to just have a conversation with him and get their opinion. Another boy showed up and I explained to him not to ask if he had been doing anything or accuse him of anything but just get him in a truck and talk to him. After 5 min the boy came to me and said that he believed he was under the influence of something and that they were taking him for drug screen. He said the boy was having some difficulty speaking and when he was asked to fill out JSA he couldn't write. The boy left with him and they were meeting Cassey and cassey was taking him for drug screen."
