A Land Use Permit for access to the <br /> pads was granted by the BLM on Sept. 11, 2003 extended on August 21, 2006 (#COC67069) <br /> . Shell Frontier Oil & gas Inc. (SFOGI) has elected to discontinue development of the project <br /> and requesting partial acreage release, it has been determined that reclamation has been <br /> achieved and no new surface disturbances were created subsequent to issuance of the NOI. <br /> 1-11-299 <br /> The 9 installed Hydrology wells were plugged and abandoned fall of 2014, the plugging report <br /> submitted to CDRMS September 09, 2014. The well casings were cut off at 4ft below final <br /> grade, a metal cap welded with well name identification scribed on cap. The final reclamation <br /> phase was completed in the fall of 2014. The pad was de-compacted and restored to existing <br /> grade, stabilized topsoil was utilized to provide approximately 4" of topsoil covering prior to <br /> seeding. The pad was drill seeded per the approved BLM seed mix, stabilized by weed free <br /> straw mulch. The continued efforts of the noxious and annual weed management and spot <br /> seeding created a diverse vegetation throughout the pad, including volunteer Rabbit and Sage <br /> brush. CDRMS annual inspection determined the pad has good desirable plant establishment <br /> in spite of the recent grazing and final reclamation has been achieved. <br /> 2-2-299 <br /> The 11 installed Hydrology wells were plugged and abandoned fall of 2014, the plugging report <br /> submitted to CDRMS September 09, 2014.
