PART II. SPECIFIC PERMIT CONDITIONS A. WELL CONSTRUCTION/(:ONVERSION REQUIREMENTS 1. Casing and Cementine. The construction details submitted with the application are hereby incorporated into this permit as Appendix A which graphically displays the details of the injection well under consideration. The permittee intends to convert an existing Class II disposal well (Getty No. I-7LW) to aClass Inon-hazardous disposal well in the following; manner: (a) SURFACE CASING (8-5/8 inch) is set in a 12-1/4 inch diameter hole to a depth of 311 feet into bedrock. The casing is secured with cement which has been circulated to the surface with 300 sacks of cement, isolating the casing from the wellbore. (b) LONG STRING CASING (4-1/2 inch) has been set in a 7-7/8 inch diameter hole to a depth of approximately 4,364 feet K:B and cemented from TD to approximately 3,240 with 350 sacks of 65/35 Posmix. A casing leak was repaired in September 2001 by squeezing the interval from 617 feet to 682 feet with 237 sacks of cement and a casing leak was squeezed from 2,460 feet to 2,525 feet with 350 sacks in August 1989. (c) TUBING AND PACKER: Approximately 3,891 feet of 2-3/8 inch tubing has been placed in the hole with a 4-1/2 inch tension packer. 2. Tubing_and Packer Specifications. All Class I injection wells, except those municipal wells injecting non-corrosive wastes, shall inject fluids through tubing with a packer set immediately above the injection zone, or tubing with an approved fluid seal as an alternative [40 CFR § 146.12 (c)]. This well shall have a tubing and packer suitable for the proposed injection activity. The packer shall set on tubing and maintained at a location that is no more than 100 feet above the top most perforation at 3,911 feet. Monitorine Devices. The primary method of monitoring shall be continuous pressure monitoring of the injection and casing tubing annulus pressure and continuous monitoring of the injection rate and volume. Prior to beginning Class I non-hazardous injection operation, the operator shall install and maintain in good operating condition the following equipment: (a) Injection pressure: a continuous pressure monitoring device in the 2-3/8 tubing at the wellhead connected to an instrument with a sampling frequency of at least every 15 seconds and aone-half (1/2) inch Female Iron Pipe (FIP) fitting, isolated by plug; or globe valves and located on the tubing to allow attachment ofone-half (1/2) inch Male Iron Pipe (MIP) pressure gauges or EPA Final Permit No. CO 10932-04664 Page 7 of 77
