Home My WebLink About168-064Memorandum State of Alaska ge Oil and Gas Conservation Commission Cancelled or Expired Permit Action EXAMPLE' Point McIntyre P2-36AXX API# 029-22801-95 This memo will remain at the front of the subject well file. Our adopted conventions for assigning APl numbers, permit numbers and well names did not specifically address expired or cancelled permits. This omission has caused some inconsistencies in the treatment of these kinds of applications for permit to drill. Operators have asked us to adopt formal procedures for this class of permit application in order to prevent future database disparities. If a permit expires or is cancelled by an operator, the permit number of the subject permit will remain unchanged. The APl number and in some instances the well name reflect the number of preexisting redrills and or multilaterals in a well. In order to prevent confusing a cancelled or expired permit with an active well or multilateral these case sensitive well identifiers will be changed for expired and cancelled applications for permits to drill. The APl number for this cancelled or expired permit is modified so the eleven and twelfth digits is 95. The well name for a cancelled or expired permit is modified with an appended xx. These procedures are an addendum to the APl numbering methods described in AOGCC staff memorandum "Multi-lateral (wellbore segment) Drilling Permit Procedures, revised December 29, 1995. AOGCC database has been changed to reflect these changes to this permit.

Tavior BP Expioration ~Alaska) Inc. P. O. Box 196612 Anchoraae. AK 99519-6612 Dear Mr. Tavior: R.e- BP Exploration (Alaska) Inc. ,'nactive Drilling Waste Disposal Faciiirv Closures - Numerous Inactive Sites The Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation ~ADEC) has received and completed its re:,iew of ,,'our August 9. 1993 letter, with enclosures, requesting approval for ciosure of BP Exploration {.Alaska} Inc. Drilling Waste Disposal Facilities on the North Slope. These sites have been reviewed in accordance with the ADEC Interim Site Assessment Guidance ,.:or Inactive Drilling Waste Sites. June !991. This correspondence describes our review ~rocedures. puts forward the department's findings, and takes action on the r~auests. Currentiv. the second draft of Alaska's new Solid Waste Re.oulations. 18.AAC 60. are under review, and this second draft contains a chapter on Inactive Reserve Pit closures. The closure criteria in this proposed regulation parallels the closure criteria in the 1991 Guidance Document. 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 Disr~osai Facility Closure Approval basis of concern, and (2) whether or not a waste site is likeiv to present significant risk to human or environmental receptors. The first step in this screenin~ criteria is estabiishin*_ a basis of concern: "If the waste site has released contaminants or there are mechanism for r)otential releases and there are receptors nearbv, then. there mav be cause for concern, and the waste site should be studied further." and "If there is no' release of contamination or no mezhanisms for potential releases and there are no rezer~rors nearby, then there is not a basis for concern and the waste site shouid be considered ciosed." The zriteria that are measured at a waste site to satisfy the above logical arguments are' Evidence of release of chemica! contamination at the waste site in excess of Alaska Water Quality Standards for ene or more target comr)ounds, or Mechanism for potential release, and Proximity of the waste site to biolo_,2icai 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 preferred approach. Corrective action alternatives shall be described at a conceprual level, and the selection of a preferred approach shall be based on balancing protectiveness with implementability 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 o.__r"'-.s_ignificant risk is based on the likelihood of exposure and the likel~ho-od of adverse consequences of exposure' "For risk to be considered significant, the receptors must be vulnerable to exposure, and the consequences of exposure must be 'adverse' to human or animal health or the environment." and. conversely, "If exposure is unlikely or the consequences of exposure are not 'adverse.' then the risk is negligible. .',,Ir. Steven D. Tavlor January i2. 1995 BPXA Inactive Drilling Waste Disposal Facility Closure Approval If risk at a waste site is si~nficiant, then corrective action should be taken. The criteria that are evaluated at a waste site to satisfv the lo~icai armaments above are ,.x,,o_ure .criteria and consecluence criteria. Exposure Criteria: Recer)tor exposure is considered to be likely when: Contaminant reiease mechanisms are iud~ed s:.gnificant . or Containment migration is judged significant. One or more contaminants are envirommentaily persistent. If exposure is found to be unlikeiv, a finding of negligible :risk is made on the basis of absence of a likely exvosure item and the action ¢ian is evaiuated under the Imr~act/Benefit Evaluation ste~. ~"lqae purpose of this stet) is to dete,,"rnine winether 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. screemng then continues to evaluate Consequence C~teria. Further Consequence Criteria: Adverse consequences of exposure to contaminants from reserve pits are considered to be likely when: ~a.I The durat,,on or frequency of exposure is sufficient to cause adverse health and environmental effects. This is evaluated bv revie:ving human and wildlife use patterns at a given waste site. waste site accessibility, and ground and surface water uses. and either; (b) The quantity or concentration of one or more contaminants exceeds r)ertinent federal or state 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 identif3' exceeclances. When only human populations are at risk, health criteria are used. When only populations at risk are nonhuman te.o fish. wildlife veeetationl environmental criteria and standards are used. or: (c) One or more contaminants exhibit high acute toxicity. The NIOSH toxicity rating system I'NIOSH 1974~ will be used to identifv contaminants highly toxic to mammals. This Mr. Steven D. Taylor JanuaD' 12. 1995 BPXA Inactive Drilling Waste Disposal Facility Closure Approval ,. information will be used to dete,,rrnine whether a target comr~ound eyd~ibits 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 conseouence criteria, and a finding of negligible risk is made. If the duration and frequency term is sufficient, but neither of the other two consequence criteria are met. a finding of negligible risk is made. The action plan is then evaluated under the Impact/Benefit Evaluation ster~. If the duration and freouencv of exposure is dete,,:mined to be sufficient to cause adverse ,,,Iec,s and e/her of the other t,.vo conseauence criteria are satisfied, then a findin~ is made that adverse conseouences are iikeiv, and the risk at a waste site is said to be siznificant. If the screening indicates mat risk is significant, then the responsible part3.' shall proceed with implementations of corrective actions.

While there is a basis for concern for those sites where exceedances occurred, there is aiso notable risk. and any corrective action warranted at these remote sites would not be reauired, realizing that the impact of the corrective action would be much greater 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.
