Drilling Waste DispoSal Facilities on the North Slope. These sites have been reviewed in accordance with the ADEC Interim Site Assessment Guidance for Inactive Drilling Waste Sites. June i991. This correspondence describes our review ?roceaures. puts fo,"ward the de~artment's findings, and takes action on the reauests. Currently. the second draft of Alaska's new Solid Waste Regulations. 18.AAC 60, are under review, and this second draft contains a chapter on Inactive Resetwe Pit closures. The closure criteria in this proposed regulation parallels the closure criteria in the 1991 Guidance DocumenL Closure under the 199! Guidance Document should constitute closure under the proposed Solid Waste Regulations if they are adopted as current drafted. The Review Procedure The qualitative risk screening procedure required in the above referenced document determines whether a site presents negligible levels of risk. or if it is a significant risk generator. A decision scheme is then employed to establish {1') whether or not there is a Mr. Steven D. Taylor January 12. 1995 BPXA Inactive Drilling Waste Disposai Facility Closure A?proval basis or' concern, and (25 whether or not a waste site is iikeiv to present significant risk to human or environmental receptors. The first step in this screening criteria is establishing a basra of concern: "If the waste site has released contaminants or there are mechanism for potential releases and there are receptors nearby, then. there may be cause for concern, and the waste site should be studied further." and "If there is no release of contamination or no me:hanisms for potential releases and there are no re:eDtors nearby, then there is not a basis for concern and the waste site should be considered :,:,osed." that are measured at a waste site to satisfy the 29ove lo_(aical ar_~uments are Evidence of release of chemica! contamination at the waste site in excess of Alaska Water Quality Standards for ene or more target :,omDounds. or Mechanism for potentiai reiease, and Proximiw of the waste site to bioto_(aicai receptors. If either of the first two criteria and the last criteria are met. there is a basis for concern, and before proceeding with Step 2. a corrective action plan shall be prepared for the site which shall identify alternative wavs to correct or mitigate the basis of concern, prevent its recurrence, and select a Dreferred approach. Corrective action alternatives shall be described at a conceptual level, and the selection of a preferreci approach shall be based on balancing protectiveness with imDiementabiiitv and cost-effectiveness. The second step determines Whether contamination at a waste site present a risk to receptors that is significam. If risk is found not to be significant, it is considered to be "negligible." The finding or~ignificant risk is based on the likelihood of exposure and the likelihood of adverse consequences of exposure' "For risk to be considered significant, the receptors must be ~rulnerable to exposure, and the consequences of exposure must be 'adverse' to human or animal health or the environment." and, conversely, "If exposure is uniiket:' or the conseauences of exposure are not 'adverse,' then the risk is negligible. Mr. Steven D. Tavtor Janua~' i£. 1995 BPXA inactive Drilling Waste Disposal Facility Closure Approval If risk at a waste site is signficiant, then corrective action snouid be taken. The criteria that are evaluated at a waste site to satisfy the logical a?aments above are exposure criteria and . consecluence criteria. Exposure Criteria: Receptor exposure is considered to be likely when: Contaminant reiease mechanisms are iudae~ significant . or Containment migration is judged significant. One or more contaminants are envirommenally persistent. If exposure is found to be uniikeiv, a findin_~ of neo_ii_.ible risk is made on the basis of absence of a likely exaosure item and the action ~ian is evaluated under the Impact,'Ben¢fit Evaluation stev. The aurvose of this step is to dete,,'-m, ine v:nether the benefits of taking a corrective action would be greater than the impacts of taking such a corrective action. If any one of the exposure criteria are met. a finding is made that exposure is likely. screenin~ then continues to evaluate Consecmence C~teria. Further Consequence Criteria: Adverse consequences of exr>osure to contaminants from reserve pits are considered to be likely when: {a.) The duration or freauencv of exposure is sufficient to cause adverse health and environmental effects. This is evaluated bv reviewing human and wildlife use patterns at a given waste site. waste site accessibility, and ground and surface water uses. and either; ('b) The quantiu, or concentration of one or more contaminants exceeds r~ertinent · federal or sate water duality .criteria or standards protecting health and/or the environment. Measured contaminant concentrations in the water will be compared with health and environmental standards and criteria for each target contaminant, to identi5' exceedances. When only human populations are at risk, health criteria are used. When only populations at risk are nonhuman/e.g., f~sh. wildlife, vegeation~, environmenal criteria and standards are used. or: (c) One or more contaminants exhibit high acute toxicity. The NIOSH toxicity rating system /NIOSH 1974~ will be used to identify contaminants highly toxic to mammals. This Mr. Steven D. Tavlor Januarv 12. 1995 BPXA Inacuve Drilling Waste Disposal Facility Closure Approval information will be used to determine whether a tarter comr~ound exhibits acute high toxicity. If the duration and frequency of exposure is insufficient to cause adverse effects, there is no need to evaluate the other two consecmence zriteria, and a finding of negligible risk. is made. If the duration and frequency, term is sufficient, but neither of the other two conseauence criteria are met. a finding of negligible risk is made. The action plan is then evaluated under the Imvact.'Benefit Evaluation step. If the duration and freauencv of exr>osure is dere,,,:mined to be sufficient to cause aciverse effects and e:r_her of the other r,.vo consequence :-riteria are satisfied, then a findin~ is made that adverse consequences are iikeiy, and the risk at a waste sire is said ro be significant. If -',he screemng indicates that risk is significant, then the responsible part3.' shall eroceed with impiementations of corrective actions.

While there is a basis for concern for those sites where exceedances occurred, there is also nemble risk. and an,,' corrective action warranted at these remote sites would not be reauired, realizing that the impact of the corrective action would be much ~reater than the benefits received. These sites;for the most part have revegetated, and any corrective action measures implemented would-impact the established plant species at these sites. These sites are Closed As Is. There are certain sites where corrective action is warranted, however, and Conditional Closure is granted, provided the corrective action stipulations described are completed to the department's satisfaction.

In compliance with 20 AAC 25.170 Section (a), "Within one year of suspension or abandonment of an on- 'shore well", all clean up work is to be finished. Section (b) provides the means for an extension of time if a valid reason exists. Section (c) provides for on site inspection. Consequently, we are presenting the following list of your abandoned and/or suspended wells. ~any of these are now more than one year old and are not in compliance with regulations, Others should have the final inspection completed this summer while weather permitS. This list covers the years 1975 to date. .There may be some earlier wells that also need inspec- tion. if you have any earlier wells to be inspected this summer please inform us. Therefore, we are requesting a schedule from you for this sumner when our field inspectors can accompany your representa- tives to these sites for the final clean up inspection.

This deviation resulted in an average angle of 40° - 42° over the lower part of the hole. No serious problems were encountered during drilling and coring although considerable caving from the Kingak Shale was noted and some tight areas required periodic reaming. Five cores were cut from 11,813' to 11,928', covering most of the Shublik Formation and most of the hydrocarbon-bearing portion of the Sadlerochit. The porosity, permeability and residual oil saturations derived from these cores are attached and also discussed below. Hydrocarbon shows in the cored interval comprised strong, uniform, dull gold to brown fluorescence, light amber to no visible cut and strong white to yellow-white cut fluorescence. There was little visible oil staining except on some tight portions, especially pebbles, where oil bleeding was noted. Serious hole problems were encountered when logging was attempted. It proved impossible to get the tools below 11,520 feet despite several wiper trips and a 7" liner was run to 11,787 feet in order to case off the troublesome Kingak shales and thus improve the chances for logging the Shublik-Sadlerochit-Lisburne section. This proved partially successful and the DIL/SP and BHCS/GR tools were run as well as a velocity survey. Serious hole problems continued, however, and tight spots were encountered on all three runs. An attempt to continue logging failed when the SNP tool stuck below the 7" shoe. Considerable effort was required to free the tool. By the time the SNP tool was freed the hole had deteriorated to the point where serious problems were being encountered during wiper trips. It was concluded that additional logging, particularly with radioactive tools, was hazardous and inadvisable. Testing was also ruled out as an impossibility given the existing hole conditions. -2- LOG ANALYSIS A review of the log and core data for this well has been made to obtain an overall impression of the petrophysical properties of the Sadlerochit Sandstone which was penetrated between 11,827' (top) and 12,300+--' (base). Depths, except where noted otherwise, refer to DIL Run 2B, Pass 2. The conclusions are as~l~~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Fluid Content 11976 lo HTdrocarbons are present in the interval 11,827' to 1~2' · DM$1ON OF OIL AND GAS 2. The sands are wet from 11,972' to 12,300'. ANCHO.~A~ 3. Whether the hydrocarbons are oil or gas cannot be determined conclusively. Residual oil saturations from preserved core samples are low in general but similar in magnitude to those from the gas cap in the Prudhoe Bay field. One residual oil saturation at 11,926' cored depth (the deepest one analyzed) is somewhat higher and similar in magnitude to those from the oil rim of the Prudhoe Bay field. "Show" descriptions of the cores are indicative of either gas or a high API gravity oil. No neutron log is available to assist in the determination of hydrocarbon content. On the basis of core residuals, a gas-oil contact may be present between 11,917' and 11,926' cored depth. Porosity. Core porosities range from about 10% in the coarser grained rock to 24% in the better quality sands. Based on a comparison with the sonic log, the core porosities appear to represent the range in porosity values for the total sand interval penetrated in this well. Water Saturation Water saturations are in the order of 30% to 40% from 11,837' to about 11,930'. A transition zone (from hydrocarbons to water) is apparent between about 11,930' and 11,972' with water saturations increasing within the zone from about 45% to 70% to the high 90's at the hydrocarbon-water contact. Below 11,972' water saturations are in the 90%-100% range. Productivity Potential Hydrocarbon production, probably gas, would be anticipated from the interval 11,827' to about 11,930'. Hydrocarbon production cannot be precluded from the interval 11,930' to 11,972'. Although water saturations are estimated to be high (45%-70%), clean oil production has been obtained at Prudhoe Bay field on sustained test from intervals wherein the logs indicate -3- high water saturations (60+_7o). Water production would be anticipated below 11,972'. CONCLUSIONS We conclude that Niakuk #2 is capable of hydrocarbon production, probably gas from 11,827' to 11,930' and possibly oil from 11,930' to 11,972'. The well has thus established the presence of a sub- stantial producible hydrocarbon column over the ADL 34625 lease block. The well was suspended March 4, 1976, with cement plugs at depths as itemized on the drilling report submitted. FOR BP ALASKA INC. Dr. P. G.

Because the nearness of our spud date we would appreciate a rede as soon as possible. Very ~urs, Ayto~ney Enclosures EXHIBIT I Parker Rig 97, which will be used to drill Niakuk No. 2 and re-enter Niakuk No. 1, consists of a 133 ft. L. C. Moore cantilever mast and a National 80 drawworks ~ounted on a 25 ft. substructure. The mud pu~ps, steel mud pits, choke manifold, solids control equipment and rig engines as well as the substructure and BOP equipment are enclosed within an insulated steel building as shown in Exhibit I-A. Attached to the rear of the building are seven 8' by 28' steel houses which ccn~ light plants, boilers and water storage. Fuel storage tanks will be located on the north side of the island and surrounded by an ice berm for second- ary containment. A 30' by 30' house contain a cementing .unit will be set along the frcnt side of the rig. A 20' by 30' shop building will be located on the east side of the island. The 24 unit, 60 man ATCO arctic drilling camp will be located on an adjacent island approximately 1000' south of the rig. It consists of offices, kitchen, dining, recreation, bath/laundry, and sleeping units. The water treatment and sewage disposal unit sets behind the camp. An 8' by 28' light plant containing two camp generators is located along- side the main camp. This camp and SDU were new in 1975 and comply with all State and Federal regulations. Details of envir~tal permits obtained by the drilling contractor, Parker Drilling Company, can be obtained on request. PROPOSED NIAKUK DEVELOP~ PIAN OF BP ALASKA /NC. OPERATOR December 5, 1975 . SITE LOCATICkN (See Exhibit "A") The proposed site of Niakuk #2 is the SE 1/4, Section 26, T12N, R15E, Umiat Meridian. This location is 50' north of the existing Niakuk #1 exploratory test drilled in the 1974-75 winter drilling season. SITE DESCRIPTION (See Exhibit "B") The drilling pad has been constructed on Niakuk, an unvegetated gravel island approximately 1-1/2 miles NNW of Heald Point. The ground elevation at the site is approximately two feet (2 ft. ) above mean seal level. The drilling pad was completed for use in drilling Niakuk #1 and Niakuk #2. · SITE DRAINA~ The drill site slopes into the Beaufort Sea on all sides and any drainage would be onto the sea ice. Field inspections have revealed no wildlife on the island during the anticipated operational period. Since construction and drilling be completed prior to the spring thaw, drilling operations will not hinder the daily b2~bits of any wildlife. . AREA FISH The drilling site is surrounded by bottcm fast sea ice and drilling operations will have no effect on fish· No settlements or villages are in the vicinity of the proposed location. About 12 miles southwest of the wellsite is Deadhorse, the closest settlement which has a public airport, hotel, and support facilities. No road exists between Deadhorse and the site. Surface transportation is possible Only in the winter after construction of an ice road. · ~~. ~.~.$ pLAN (See Exhibit "C") a~ ~ [~~ ~ will be reconstructed frcm the. existing spine road ce~n~ g ~/the dock to the proposed wellsite after freeze-up 1975. D~ C . T~ ice road will be offshore following the ooast line and will be ..~constructed on bottcm fast ice. The road will be maintained ~ DI¥I$~,~ (}i: ~l~~rked during operations. Construction equi~r~nt, the drilling rig, fuel, and all supplies will be transported over the ice road frcm P~__~_hoe Bay by trucks and rolligons. SITE PLAN The drillsite has been constructed of ice-free gravel and consists of a single pad of minimal size with sufficient areas for the drilling rig. The camp is located on a gravel island approximately 1300' southeast of the drilling pad. . Gravel has been extracted frcm exposed bars an~ channels in the Sagavanirktok River. The gravel has been hauled to the pad location via the ice road. 10. PERMAFROST The drilling pad has been constructed on an island. Total depth of Permafrost beneath the wellsite is approximately 1500 feet. Facilities with a source of heat (i.e. camp) will have insulation and/or air circulation beneath to insure that tbs%wing below the gravel pad does not occur. The drilling rig is to be supported -using wooden piling. Only a few additional piling to those required %o support ti~e rig wh~ drili~-~g Niak-uk ''~ '-' ~ ~ ~ ..... ~ 11. RESERVE pIT There is no reserve mud pit at the drilling site. Gravel frcm the surface hole will be spread o'n existing pad. All mud and drilling waste will be collected au~ trucked to an existing disposal site. This syst~n worked successfully when drilling Niakuk #1. An ice berm will be constructed on the sea ice to provide a secondary containment for well bore fluids in case of an ~mergenc~. Any fluids entering this berm will be picked up and disposed, of in our onshore disposal site. 12. FLARE PIT No flare pit will be constructed as no testing is anticipated. 13. FUEL STORAGE' (See Exhibit "D") Main fuel storage (2 x 20,000 gallon double hulled steel tanks) .!-i~?, fi.~~ i-i~l~.~.,~<l, ocated at the rig site. These tanks were ori~ginally i~? i~ ~ ~~ in 1973 at the request of BP Alaska Inc. They aref desi~to provide protection against spillage and a means _o ~ ~ ~n~ conta/nment. Their double hull. has been found to be superior to bladder tanks and gravel dykes with liners. These portable tanks have been in operational use at Prudhoe Bay, Niakuk #1, and the Kemik Unit #2 wellsite for over one year with a history of zero spills. The tanks are designed and. constructed to provide storage for the contents of the inner tanks in the event of an overfill. Provisions have been incorporated to allc~ drainage and inspection of the annuli between the two hulls. Filling of the tanks is acccmplished by bottcm loading. In the event of an overfill, the flow will run down the sides of the inner tank and be contained in the annulus. Tanks are gauged visually on filling and stick-dipped for record keeping. As referenced earlier, all personnel engaged in handling these tanks will be briefed on the posted Fuel Transfer Procedures with recurrent discussions at shift changes. Company contracts provide for the discharge of contractor's employees found guilty of gross negligence. The lines leading frcm the double hulled tanks will be protected by burial to allow traffic passage. Employees will be briefed on the location of these lines and the necessity for caution in operating An ice berm will be constructed for secondary containment around the double hulled tanks as well as those tanks provided by the contractor which are .n°t double hulled. Once a snow berm is constructed, it will be sprayed with water, which when frozen will form an ice barrier. Any fuel frcm a spill ccming in contact with ~is~.~ice~would_ be at ambient- temperatures~--: tnsOfar-~'-as-the:~dritting- l~z-ugr~t't c~ils for c~'~ietion prior to break-up, these ice ber~ will be ~tent based on past experience. They also eliminate the need for additional gravel and site restoration. Fuel transfer procedures will be developed for all fuel storage and transfer facilities. These will consist of posting at the appropriate .facility, flow diagrams and printed instructions, in conjunction with tagged valves, showing the proper valving sequence to safely transfer fuel. The Rig Representative will discuss these procedures with rig personnel and answer any questions. The same type of procedures have been drafted, with the concurrence of the EPA, for use in the Prudhoe Bay Operating Area. Such procedures cannot be ompletely described until rig up has been o~pleted as facility configuration cannot be fully determined. until that time. 14. BLOWOUT PREVENTION .EQUIP~ (See Exhibit. "E") After surface.casing has been installed, BOPE will be in use continuously during drilling operations. The BOPE will consist of ~eZ~s~ i~elsted inmediately after, installation and at least weekly ~ 'i~Ul~' preventer, pipe and blind rams. The BOPE will be th~e~,gaftt~Y. In addition, daily operational checks will be made. ~J~sts will be conducted as per Rule 4 of Conservation Order ,~-~, as related to Prudhoe Bay Field Pool Rules. 15. SPII.L P~ION, OONTROL AND.COUNTER MEASURES Areas of potential hydrocarbon spills include the reserve pit, the fuel storage tanks and the wellbore. All oil waste and by-products will be collected and transported to a suitable on land disposal site. Operator will provide a welded steel building of 3/16" steel plate, skid mounted, measuring 9 'W x 7'H x 16'L. This building will have access doors at each end with internal lighting and contain a sufficient quantity of sorbent materials and necessary clean-up small tools. This counter-measure building will be located on the site and employees familiarized in the use of its contents. In addition to the counter measure building, the contractor will have located on the site, items of heavy equiFn~nt such as dozers, front-end loaders, vacuum trucks and graders. If a spill should occur in spite of the preventative measures .previously described, equipment will always be available to ~iately construct containment berms. Since the surrounding' area is flat, containment should be easy and clean-up relatively simple. Snow cover and the frozen condition of the sea would minimize any environmental damage. The camp area on a neighboring .island is sufficient for a 60-man camp. This camp is designed to provide for the ultimate in safety and convenience of the occupants. 17. The food service contractor for the camp will be 're~3_~red to insure that all food is frcm approved sources.. Food storage and refrigeration areas will be required to have adequate shelving to keep package food off the floor. Cleanliness will be maintained. Kitchen and dining facilities will meet National Sanitation Foundation standards. 18. ~TER SUPPLY AND TREA%%~Tf Water for camp use and drilling will be hauled frcm the Sagavanirktok River about seven miles southwest of the location and frcm two inland lakes for which application has been made. Water for camp use will be made potable using water treatment facilities designed and constructed by Parker Drilling Company. !'?~Tne~trea~nt facility is entirely enclosed in a 37.5 x 9.5 x ~0~/'~ in~/ated steel-building mounted on skids. The building is 6oh~t%ucted to facilitate transportation to and frcm the drilling ~te~.~All connections to the building are mounted flush with the ~!§~'~o~at they will not be damaged during transportation to the Enclosed inside of the metal building is a 4,600 gallon steel reservoir to store the raw water supply. The reservoir will contain one day's supply of water for the 60-man camp based upon a usage of 75 gallons per day per man. The reservoir is entirely inside of the steel building and the raw water will be heated slightly which assists the treatment process. The reservoir is vented to the treatment plant disposal drain so that any overfills will not result in flooded building. Pressure is supplied to the treatment plant by a centrifugal pump located under a portion of the reservoir. A second identical pump is also located in the treatment plant .as a spare. The pumps are interchangeable in the event of a pump failure. The pump is controlled by a pressure switch acutated by a small water pressure tank on the discharge side of the pump. The pressure switch shuts the pump off at high pressures and turns the pump on at low pressures. A pressure 'range of 30 to 70 p.s.i, would be desirable for this system, The pressure switch is set less than 75 p.s.i, since the maximum allowable pressure to the filters is 75 p.s.i. The water pressure tank absorbs small draws on the system so that the pump is not constantly cycling. ~ A hypochlorinator-is installed in the treatment facility. The hypochlorinator consists of a thirty gallon solution tank and a small positive displacement diaphragm pump with speed ~nd stroke adjustments. The diaphragm pump is paced by the centrifugal pressure switch. That is, when the centrifugal pump is running, the chlorinator is operating. A chlorine solution of knc~n concentration c~ b~ injected into the raw water to control algae and bacteria and to precipitate manganese, iron and hydrogen sulfide. Either calcium hypochlorite or sodium hypochlorite can be used in the chlorinator. Sodium hypochlorite, more ccr~nonly known as laum~lry bleach, is a liquid at a strength of 12 to 15 percent available chlorine. Calcium~ hypochlorite, known under trade names such as HTH, Perchlorin and Pittchlor, is a powder with an available chlorine content of 70 percent. The amoUnt of chlorine solution to be applied to the raw water is a function of the water quality. Generally the following amount of chlorine should be ad_d_ed to the raw water for the best quality effluent: Iron Mg/1 X .9 Manganese Mg/1 X 1.3 Hydrogen Sulfide Mg/1 X 8.5 Algae p.p.m. Chlorine p.p.m. Chlorine p.p.m. Chlorine p.p.m. Chlorine Total Chlorine Demand p.p.m. Chlorine U ~ [jk. !~i ~:Th~ ~.~cre~nt plant effluent should have a chlorine residual of 0.1 to 0.5 p.p.m, chlorine. The next ste~ .n the treatment process in the ~=moval of the sediment from the water. This is ac .c~mplished by two (2) 30 gallon per minute pressure filters connected in series. Each contains 210 pounds of 1/2" to 1/16" graded gravel and 8 cubic feet of a non- hydrous aluminum silicate filter media. Non-hydrous aluminum silicate provides a low loss of head filter media and requires twice the flow rate for backwash. After the water has passed through the sediment filters, it enters the iron and manganese removal f~lter. The filter contains 210 pounds of 1/2" to 1/16" graded gravel and 8 cubic feet of manganese greensand. The manganese greensand ~as been treated with manganous .chloride to convert it to manganeris zeolite. The greensand is treated with potassium pennanganate which results in the precipitation of the manganese and iron oxides on the zeolite grains. The filter is backwashed periodically and occasionally the filter must be regenerated with potassium permanganate. Frequency of~ the backwash and regeneration is again a function of the water quality.' odTheoorwater then enters the carbon filter which removes any taste, , or color. The filter contains 210 pounds of 1/2" to 1/16" graded gravel and 8 cubic feet of graded carbon material. Occasion-. ally the ca~n material will have to be replaced in this filter as the absorption ability of the carbon beccmes exhausted. The need to replace the carbon material is again a fu~.ction of the water quality. The two (2) sed~t filters, the manganese greensand filter and ~-~ carbon filter are--all backwashed with an aut~tic stager c~troller. -~ controller controls t~e intervals at which the filters are backwashed. The controller is operator actuated. The water then passes through a 90,000 grain sodium zeolite water softener. Calcium and magnesium ions are replaced by sodium ions in the zeolite. When the bed is saturated by the hardness ions (calcium and-magnesium) the zeolite bed is backwashed with sodium chloride which reverses the process. The backwash water is wasted to the plant drain system. Th~ sodium chloride used to backwash the zeolite softener is stored in a 100 gallon brine tank. The backwash of the softener is controlled by an automatic time control. Frequency of the backwash operation is dependent upon the' hardness Treated water is stored in two (2) 75 gallon glasslined hot water heaters located in the treatment plant building and three (3) 400 gallon storage tanks located throughout the camp. The storage tanks provide an ample amount of treated water to supply the camp during periods when the treatment plant is backwashing and to prevent the treatment plant frcm cycling on and off with every small draw on the system. The backwash water frcm the treatment plant be disposed directly _~nt~ th~ i s~a ice. There is nothing harmful or toxic discharged frcm theater treatment plant. By-passing the sewage treatment plant'with the backwash water decreases t.he load on the sewage treatment plant. 19. 20. A residual of 0.1 to 0.5 ~ in the treated water will be mintained. If there is no chlorine residual in the treated water due to the manganese greensand, carbon, and water softening processes, a secoux~ diaphragm pump will be installed to inject a chorine solution into the treated water after the treatment process has taken place. The efficiency of the water treatmmnt plan and the ability of the water treatment plant to produce a good effluent is a function of the raw water quality and operator skill. If operated.oorrectly, this treatment plant has the capability of producing an excellent effluent frcm a poor water source. SOLID ~ASTE DISPOSAL All trash, used drill bits, fuel drums, etc., from both the camp and the drilling rig will be back-hauled to Prudhoe Bay and disposed of at the approved sanitary landfill site. Drill solids will be dumped into an approved reserve pit. Sludge collected on filter paper in the sewage treatment unit will be incinerated on location using a Ccmtro incinerator. SEWAGE DISPOSAL The sewage disposal facility will be either a physical/chemical :~eatn~t plant or other type that meets the state requirement for Treated water discharged frcm the plant, as it is enviro~tally pure, will drain onto the sea ice. In conjunction with the sewage treatment plant, the incinerator previously discussed will be used to destroy waste sludge and solids filtered out in the sewage trea~t process. In the event of a plant failure or breakdown, raw sewage will be trucked to the BP Alaska Operations Center and processed. 21. Air pollution will be held to a minimun through use of the incinerator described above. Emissions frc~ the enginms, generators and boilers required by the operations will not effect the ambient air. State Air .Quality Requirements will be-ccmplied with. 22. SITE RESTORATION Special efforts to maintain a clean operation and properly dispose ~,-d~r~s! will be made. Upon ~letion of operations, a final ~01~a~u~ ~11 be perfommzd. A ~ inspection of the wellsite ...w~..l~ bede and, if necessary, a hand clean-up operation carried If econcmical quantities of oil or gas are not found, the well will be abandoned in ccmpliance with all applicable State and Federal regulations. Should the well be capable of oil and/or gas production which will justify development wells and production facilities (i.e. pipeline), the well will be shut-in until the field is developed. 22 27 I I I I t 23 I PROPOSED ,~BOTTOM HOLE 30 AS-STAKED NI,CKUK No.,:> LAI : 70©:> I 46.1X)" LONG. = 148° 14'42.64" X = 715,986 L-- _..-~LI ¥=5,985, s8'~ - I 3s I 36 .-~,! 3, Point I I 1 32 'CERTIFICATE OF SURVEYOR I hereby certify that lam properly registered and licensed to practice land surveying in the State of Alaska and that this plat represents a location survey made by me or under my supervision, and that all dimensions and other details are correct,. /~-/0 7.5' Date SURVEYOR ADDED (PROPOSED) BOTTOM HOLE OCT. 15.1975 C JR AS- STAKED NIAKUK No. 2 Located in PROTRACTED SEC, JMIAT MERIDIAN Surveyed for B.P ALASKA INC.

Fourth Avenue Anchorage, Alaska 99501 Attention: Mr. Michael C. T. Smith Director ' Gentlemen: · Enclosed are three copies of BP Alaska, Inc., Spill Prevention, Containment, Clean-Up Plan for Niakuk Island. Approval of this plan is required by Department of Natural Resources' memo dated April 9, 1974, Stipulation #2, Re: NS LO 74-12 Niakuk Island. Very truly yours, A. K. Howard Manager' Operations RHR:ime cc : Niakuk #1 File Vice-President Exploration, San Francisco SPILL PREVENTION, CONTAINMENT, CLEAN-UP NIAKUK ISLAND BP Alaska Inco, proposes to implement the following procedures on location at the Niakuk #1 well site. Implementation of these procedures will comply with the Department of Natural Resources, Stipulation #2,-Re: NS LO 74-12 Niakuk Island in a memo dated April 9, 1974, and Environmental Protection Agency regulatory requirements relating to Oil Pollution Prevention. (SPCC) We will consider the SPCC requirements in three elements: Prevention, Containment, Clean-Up. PREVENTION: Fuel Transfer Procedures have been developed for all fuel 'storage and transfer facilities. These consist of posting at the appropriate facility, flow diagrams and printed instructions, in conjunction with tagged valves, showing the proper valving sequence to safely transfer fuel. The Rig Supervisor instructs all personnel working this phase of the operation and conducts a daily review of procedures with each shift change. The same type of procedures are practiced with the concurrence of the EPA, in the Prudhoe Bay operating area. CONTAINMENT: Main fuel storage (1 x 20,000 gallon double hulled tank and 1 x 19,000 gallon double hulled tank) will be located at the rig site. These tanks were designed superior to bladder tanks and gravel dykes with· liners. They have been in to provide protection and a means of secondary containment, which would be · operational use at Prudhoe Bay for approximately two (2) years with a history · : - 2 - of zero spills in their use. They are portable and have replaced bladder tanks as being superior in use and safety. Their use eliminates the need for additional gravel excavation and emplacement by eliminating the need for dyking. These tanks were ordered after discussions with the Environmental Protection Agency, State Department of Environmental Conservation and with their ~oncurrence in eliminating the need for dykes. The tanks are designed and constructed to provide storage for the contents of the inner tanks in the event of a leak and also to provide containment in the event of an overflow. Provisions have been incorporated to allow drainage and inspection of the annuli between the two hulls. Operating procedures require daily inspection for the accumulation of water and snow. Snow may be removed by hooking steam lines to the annulus drains, reducing the snow to water an~ draining the liquid. Drain and discharge valves are protected and of a type that can be visually noted as open or closed. Loading of the tanks is accomplished by pumping thru the topside loading port and in the event of an overfill, the flow will run down the sides of the inner tank and into the contained annulus. Tanks are gauged visually on filling and stick dipped for recQrd keeping. As referenced earlier, all personnel engaged in handling these tanks are briefed on the posted Fuel Transfer Procedures with recurrent discussions at shift changes. Company contracts provide for the discharge of contractors employees found guilty of gross negligence. - 3 - Additional fuel storage (1 x 18,000 gallon and 1 x 2,000 gallon steel tanks) will be located .at the rig site. A snow berm will be constructed for · secondary-containment. Once the snow berm.is'constructed, it will be sprayed with water, which when frozen will form an ice punch bowl. Any fuel from a spill coming in contact with this ice would be at ambient temperatures avoiding melting. -Insofar-as the drilling program calls for completion prior to break-up, these dykes will be competent based on past experience. They also eliminate the need for additional gravel and site restoration. Lines leading from the fuel storage tanks are protected by adequate sturctures 'to allow traffic passage and retain visibility for physical integrity. Employees are briefed with periodic reviews on the location of these lines and the necessity for caution in operating around them. -All drill solids will be collected in steel tanks. Vacuum trucks will transfer these wastes to an existing disposal site at Prudhoe Bay. CLEAN-UP: BP Alaska Inc., will provide a welded steel building of 3/16" steel plate, skid mounted, measuring 9'W. x 7'H. x 16'L. This building will have access doors at each end with internal lighting and contain a.sufficient quantity of sorbent materials and necessary clean-up small tools. This counter-measure building will be located on the site and employees familiarized in the use of its contents° In addition to the counter-measure building, the contractor will have located ~on tile site items of heavy equipment such as dozers, front end loaders, vacuum trucks and graders that could be utilized in the event of a apl ~., !i) : ~{ ii BP ALASKA INC.

Gravel placement on the Island will not extend beyond its present shoreline. rGravel will be hauled from the extraction site's over portions of the existing Spine Road to the Prudhoe dock. From the dock, the gravel haul will continue over an ice road prepared on sea ice directly to the drill site. During drilling operations, it is the intention to ground and secure a shallow-draft barge at the position shown on Enclosure No. 3, which will serve for fuel storage as well as a drilling mud receptacle.

This is to advise that operations permitted by your letter of April 9, 1974, are scheduled for resumption in early 1976, as soon as sea ice conditions per- mit. Firstly, plans call for the drilling of a new well, Niakuk #2, from the existing drill pad and thereafter skidding the rig to Niakuk #1 location for re-entry of the suspended well. Operations and equipment shall be the same as that employed to initially drill Niakuk #1. At the termination of the Spine Road, near Prudhoe Dock #1, an ice road will be constructed and maintained for traveling to and from the Niakuk location° Water for drilling and domestic use in the drill camp is the subject of a sep- arate application for water rights to the State - Water Resources Section.
