  1. Drilling, Hydraulic Fracturingand DEQ in the BakkenSteve Kilbreath, MDEQSlides from various sourcesIncluding Tom Richmond, MBOGC

  2. All Oil Activity

  3. Is Oil & Gas Development New? Data From The DNRC Montana Board of Oil and Gas Data Miner Application

  4. Horizontal Drilling Activity

  5. Horizontal Oil Activity - Bakken

  6. Interesting DifferencesMontana vs North Dakota

  7. From NDIC Oil and Gas Division North Dakota Data

  8. From Mt BOGC

  9. Rigs and Production • December Production • North Dakota 23.5 MBls • Montana 2.3 Mbls • Current Rig Count • North Dakota – 176 • Montana - 11

  10. Montana vs North Dakota Daily Production 2008

  11. DEQ Related Issues Permitting and compliance Gravel mining Subdivision Stuff – Temporary Work Force Wastewater, Wastewater, Wastewater Zombies Air registry permits Solid Waste Discharge permits – produced water Sewage Pumpers Water Quality Issues Enforcement Issues

  12. Gravel Mining 2011 and 2012 average 100-110 Applications per year No good data for previous years

  13. Air Registry - Oil or Gas Well Facility Pumpjack (“Horse Head”) Flare Pit Heater/Treater Pumpjack Engine Recycle Pump Water Storage Tank Well Oil Storage Tanks 1100 registered sites

  14. Impact timing for Montana Anthropogenic impacts in Montana relate to North Dakota increases! We weathered through Elm Coulee just fine!

  15. Solid Waste • E & P Waste – Oaks permitted January 2013 in use mid 2013 • New E&P application in Outlook • PreApp E&P in Brockton

  16. UIC sites/ produced water • TENORM & Filter Socks

  17. Temporary Work Force Housing These are subdivisions under 76-4 RV Parks, Richland County

  18. Work CampSheridan County These are public water and wastewater but not subdivisions

  19. Truck Parking Facility

  20. Septic Pumpers Two new land app sites in Richland County

  21. Community Challenges RV’s and Blue water ?

  22. Permitting Challenges • Example of a zombie system: this development was approved and occupied in the early 1980s, then vacated and returned to agricultural land, and is now being occupied again. How does this fit our regulations?

  23. Enforcement Issues • 66 Enforcement cases based on complaints – mainly subdivision and public water mainly follow up on county referrals. • 9 Formal enforcement cases that will be AO’s and administrative penalties. • Get involved – if you see something funning call us. • Chad Anderson 406-444-2964

  24. Water Quality Issues“What the frack”

  25. Fracturing Process Frac fluid additives Concentrated gel High-pressure pumping equipment Water Proppant mixing/blending Frac fluid mixing/blending Wellhead connection Source: Schlumberger

  26. Frac Tanks – Hold Flowback Water Frac Head/Goat Head Sand Storage Units Frac Pumps Data Monitoring Van Blender Pumps Chemical Storage Trucks Frac Tanks – Hold Fresh Water Gel Slurry Tanker Truck Chesapeake Rock Cave Marcellus Shale Well, West Virginia

  27. Where is this all going?

  28. The End - Any questions?
