07:00 PM | WV | Temporary, aboveground waterline between Coastal and Fisher Pads | Blacksville | On 11/21/17 at approximately 4:15 PM and on 11/22/17 at approximately 2:00 PM, as crews were pressure testing the temporary, aboveground waterline between Coastal and Fisher, stress fractures were discovered during the line walks. These fractures allowed freshwater to be released onto the ground. Testing was immediately halted, the line was evacuated, and repairs were made and have been scheduled. The pipe that was delivered for this installation was used previously for other transfer jobs. QAQC was performed on the pipe prior to installation, but due to the nature of these impairments, they could not have been detected until pressure was applied to the line. | 1 to 5 gallons | Andy Travis | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

12:30 PM | WV | Fisher | Blacksville | At 7:30 this morning a 16" temporary above ground waterline owned and operated by Rockwater, parted at a weld during frac operations on the Fisher Pad. The waterline operator had been pumping at 70 bbls/min for a couple of minutes when he noticed a drop in pressure and increase in flow rate. He immediately shut down operations to determine where the potential issue was. The break in the line was found above the Coastal Pad, along the access road that runs between the Fisher and Coastal Pads. We are estimating that 450 bbls of a 30% concentration mixture of produced and fresh water escaped and ran down the hillside and lease road. There are no streams or waterways that connect with the contaminated area. DEP inspector Gayne Knitowski was notifed at 9:00 am this morning, and visited the location. He was supportive of the actions we had taken and asked to be kept in the loop with the NGE plan of action for remediation. DEP spill hotline was contacted at 10:30 am and assigned the following reference number 31-67939. NGE has been brought in to address environmental remediation, and we are scheduling a meeting with Rockwater to address this incident. | 100 gallons or greater | Andy Travis | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
04:00 PM | WV | Coastal-Campbell Access Road | Blacksville | On 12/13/17 at approximately 11:00 AM, water transfer crew members were relocating a pump from the Campbell Pad to the Dunkard Creek Withdrawal Site and upon transporting the pump, diesel fuel leaked out of the pump's fuel cell in two places along the Coastal-Campbell Access Road. Oil soak rags were immediately placed on the spill areas. The pump was taken to a level area in order to run the pump and use the extra fuel prior to transporting further on uneven terrain and potentially causing further leaking. NNE's HSE Rep and Water Rep talked with crew members about fueling with consideration of transporting pumps. | Environmental > Spill > Petroleum Fuel > 5 to 100 gallons | Andy Travis | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
06:30 PM | WV | Coastal AST | Blacksville | On 12/13/17 at approximately 1:30 PM, NNE's drilling consultant observed water leaking at a flange on the discharge pipe at the AST. An estimated 2 BBL of blended water was released onto the ground, outside of containment. The water never left the well pad and did not impact any streams. NNE's HSE rep and Water rep went to site to assess situation and put containment under the leak to prevent further spreading. Water transfer crew members were immediately called to break down the flange and identify the failure. Upon breaking the flange down, it was determined the failure was a broken bolt that holds the flange together. Crew members replaced the damaged bolt with a new one, bolted the flange back up, which resolved the issue. | 5 to 100 gallons | Andy Travis | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Went back and checked, a load of FR was delivered during the stage, the driver was told not to blow off until we were finished. (it causes the FR pumps to lose prime). Evidently, he left the pump running and left. I don’t know where he went. When the Producers guys found it there was a large quantity of FR on the containment, pumps, pump room and a small amount beside the containment. There is even a thin film on the side of the AST. | Driver – Richard Charles says he owns Charco Three the trucking company. Truck Tag AG 68768 Pennsylvania Trailer Tag PT 672E2, Copy of CDL attached, did not have any proof of insurance When asked why he was pumping after being told not to pump, he claimed no one told him. I believe this statement to be an absolute untruth. I asked him his name, I asked his employer and he told me Flowtek, I asked for his supervisors number and he gave me Rick Shaner 412-452-4032. I called Rick and found out Richard doesn’t work for Flowtek. I doubt almost everything the guy has told me. The estimated volume at this time is 100 gallons until we know better. (really hard to tell how much some is on top of pumps. We have captured as much as we can off of containment, cut the saturated felt up. The small amount off containment has been soaked with moss and will be picked up and contained. The containment is being cut out and repaired were it is soaked.
