3. Iniection Interval. The proposed injection zone extends from the top of the Cozzette Member of the Iles Formation at a depth of 3,864 feet BGS (Cozzette is perforated from 3,911 to 3,927 feet BGS) to the base of the Corcoran Member of the ]:les Formation. The Corcoran Sandstone is perforated from 4,077 to 4,241 feet BGS. These two intervals are sepazated by a shale interval making up the base of the Cozzette Member. The overall injection zone is confined by a tongue of the Mancos Shale on top of the injection interval and the main part of the Mancos underlying the interval. 4. erection Pressure Limitation. Based on the instantaneous shut-in pressure from a fracture treatment of the well, a maximum surface injection pressure of 930 pounds per square inch gauge (psig) has been established. If a higher pressure is requested, it must be accompanied by a valid step-rate test (SRT) of the injection zone, using fluid normally injected, to determine both the instantaneous shut-in pressure (ISIP) and the formation breakdown pressure. The Director will determine the allowable pressure modification based upon the test results and other parameters reflecting actual injection operations. The permittee shall give thirty (30) days advance notice to the Director if an increase in injection pressure will be sought. Details of the proposed test shall be submitted at least seven (7) days in advance of the proposed test date so that the Director has adequate time to review and approve the test procedures. Results of all tests shall be submitted to the Director within ten (10) days of the test. Any changes in the maximum injection pressure established by this section, as dictated by the test results, will be mule as a minor modification to the Permit. 5. erection Volume Limitation. There is no limitation on the number of barrels of fluid per day (BFPD~ that mary be injected into the Getty # 1-7LW disposal well, or in the cumulative number of barrels injected, provided that the maximum allowable injection pressure limitation, Part II, Section C. 4., of this permit, is not exceeded. 6. Injection Fluid Limitation. 'T'his Class INon-Hazazdous Underground Injection Control (iJIC) individual well Permit authorizes use of the Getty # 1-7LW for the disposal of reject brine wastewater, including sodium cazbonate from the solution mining fluid processed at the Parachute soda ash plant. No off-site (site meaning the Parachute soda ash processing plant) waste, on-site solvents, or off- specification chemicals will be accepted for disposal. Injection of any hazardous waste as identified by EPA under 40 CFR 261.3 is prohibited. 7. Annular Fluid. Unless an alternative to a packer has been approved under 40 CFR § 146.12 (c), the annulus betwe;en the 2-3/8 inch tubing and the long string (4-1/2 inch) casing shall be filled with fresh water treated with a corrosion inhibitor or other packer fluid as approved, in writing, by the Director. The annulus shall be maintained under a positive pressure ranging from 20 to 80 pounds per square inch EPA Draft Permit No. CO 10932-04664 Page 13 of 77
