Re: Staff Review of Gas Well Application for Fellowship 6H
Dear Ms. Diamond:
Please find below our comments regarding the Fellowship 6H gas well application:
/""'.
1) Water Source: The cover memo, dated January 28, 2008, stated that the water
will be brought to the site via a waterline "underneath Bethel Road.. then north
along Cottonwood Creek..." Additional information is needed as to the specific
alignment of this proposed pipe, its depth, timing of construction, will it be within
the public right of way (additional permits would be necessary) or under private
land, etc..
Please find attached the map, marked Exhibit 1, showing the approximate route
of the water line. The water line will not be buried, it will be placed, for temporary
fracturing purposes, along the surface of the ground. For travel underneath 635
and Bethel Road, it will run along Cottonwood Creek, which should not require
additional permitting. It will cross public right of way at Bethel Road, but will not
impede vehicular traffic. Please also find pictures, Exhibit 2, of what typical water
lines might look like. Upon completion of drilling, fracturing operations will occur
within three weeks +/-.
2) SWPP: The cover memo, dated January 22, 2008, stated that this activity was
exempt from the SWPP requirements. Our most current information is that if the
disturbed area is between 1 and 5 acres, then a Construction Site Notice would
be required to be submitted to the city, and to be posted on the property.
Anything greater than 5 acres would require submittal of the NOI to the state.

r
Please let us know what is required to submit to the city regarding the
Construction Site Notice and we will be happy to oblige. We can also post this on
the property when construction begins. The total acreage of our pad site is 2.152
acres, so we would not be required to submit to the state.
3) Exhibit D: It is assumed that Exhibit D, as originally submitted (Production and
Rig Layouts) needs to be deleted from the application package because it is
significantly different from the color exhibits as reviewed below.
Yes, please delete those exhibits from your permit application package.
,-.
a. Pad Site Layout Production and Drilling Phase Layout Exhibits (All 3
Exhibits) The below exhibits can be found on the maps attached, Exhibits
3, 4 and 5.
i. Revise all the exhibits to be to the scale as specified.
ii. Provide property dimensions and area calculations.
iii. Include dimensions to public rights-of-way and abutting property
lines.
iv. Revise note to specify either black or green coated chain link fence.
Provide elevation of the fence, will there be security devices on the
top of the fence?
v. Specify the proposed number of trees, caliper inches, species, and
scientific name. Please see our response to Exhibit J.
.~
b. Drilling Phase Layout- in addition to 1. above:
i. Specify surface materials for the Pad Site Area and 16' wide
access road to Creekview Drive. The pad site area and access
road will be constructed of crushed concrete.
ii. Include estimated time frame of drilling operation. Drilling
Operations take approximately 20-30 days per well. Fracturing
operations take approximately 10-20 days per well.
III. Specify number, frequency and types of truck traffic generated prior
to and during drilling operation. Please see attached spreadsheet,
Exhibit 6, for an estimate on the truck traffic.
iv. Provide pictures/elevations of production sites similar to what is
proposed at this location. Please find the attached pictures to help
you get an approximate idea of what the drill site will look like with
production equipment:
Containment: 30' x 140' x 3' tall Galvanized panels, exhibit 7
Separators: 48" diameter x 17'6" long x 5' tall, painted BLM tan,
exhibit 6
Tanks: 15'6" diameter x 8' tall, painted BLM tan with 3 blue stripes,
in Chesapeake Blue, exhibit 8
Wellheads: 84" tall x 48" wide, exhibit 9
Please let us know if you would like a tour of one of our production
sites.
r
c. Production Phase Layout - in addition to 1. above:
i. This is the more permanent use, therefore, we need additional
information, what to expect, vertically as well as horizontally.
Include elevations of all equipment/facilities to remain on the site,
including heights colors, etc. Please find attached the Production
Equipment Elevations document showing the proposed elevations
for the production equipment on this site.
ii. Include detailed, dimensioned site plan indicating all
structures/facilities to remain on the site. Please find attached the
Production Equipment Elevations document, Exhibit 10, showing
the proposed elevations for the production equipment on this site.
iii. Provide "as built" pictures/elevations of production sites similar to
what is proposed at this location. Please refer back to the pictures
submitted as Exhibits 7, 8, and 9, and the Production Equipment
Elevations document, Exhibit 10.
IV. Specify surface materials for the Pad Site Area and 16' wide
access road to Creekview Drive. The Pad Site Area and the access
road will be constructed of crushed concrete.

4) Exhibit J: John Elias, Park Operations Manger/ City Arborist, reviewed the Tree
Survey(exhibit J) for the Fellowship 6H Well submitted by Lenny Hughes with
Halff & Associates. He stated that this project is not exempt from Tree Mitigation.
There is an exemption for property zoned Light Industrial, but pertains only to
trees located inside the Buildina Foot Print. It has nothing to do with Pad Sites,
and there doesn't appear to be any buildings in this project. This project will
require a Tree Removal Permit be pulled prior to start of construction. The Tree
Mitigation Calculations are as follows:
Total Trees on Site (DBH) 1539"
Total Trees Removed (DBH) 1162"
Total Trees Preserved (DBH) 377"
Preservation Percentage 24% or 285" (377 divided by 1539)
Landscape Credit 49.5" (thirty three (3") caliper evergreen trees x 50%)
1162"(trees removed) - 285"(preservation credit) - 49.5"(landscape credit) =
827.5"(net retribution)
827.5 x $100 = $82,750
A check in the amount of $82,750 will need to be made out to the City of Coppell
Reforestation and Natural Areas fund. The check will be due at the time the
permit is pulled.
.-..-
r
These tree mitigation calculations, as analyzed by John Elias, are based on
preserving trees (Cedar Elms) outside of the drill pad/production site area. Staff
feels that this, plus the proposed planting of evergreen trees, will help to obscure
the view of the facility from adjacent properties and rights-of-way. It is suggested
that preserving additional trees along the southern property line should also be
investigated. This could potentially lower the mitigation costs as well as provide
a better buffer from Bethel Road. However, a legal instrument needs to be in
place to assure that these trees are, in fact, preserved. Therefore, staff is
recommending a 30 foot wide landscape/tree preservation buffer easement
abutting the perimeter of the Drill Pad Site area be provided. This easement
area should be included on the Pad Site Layout Production and Drilling Phase
Layout Exhibits.
According to the landscaping ordinance, "in areas zoned LI (Light Industrial),
trees located within the building footprint, as indicated on the site plan approved
by city council, shall not be considered as protected trees under this section and
shall not be subject to tree reparation payment." Our pad can never be reduced
in size, nor can trees be planted on it; therefore, it is our building footprint. We
respectfully request that this matter be put on City Council Agenda for approval.
,-~
No trees within the limits of our pad can be preserved; however, we will not be
removing any trees outside of the limits of our pad. We only have permission
from the surface owner to use the limits of the pad site. A 30 foot wide
landscape/tree preservation buffer easement is not possible because it is not our
land to use.
~
5) Fire Department Comments/Questions:
a. What will the 16 foot access road be constructed of? Crushed Concrete
b. Will the 16 foot access road have a 'smooth' finish? Yes, it will be bladed,
rolled, and compacted.
c. Will the curb at the entrance off Creekview be removed? Yes; however,
proper city permitting procedures will be followed.
d. Will the 16 foot gate be locked? KNOX lock for FD entry? Yes, the gate
will be locked and there will be a KNOX lock for Fire Department Entry
once the well is completed.
e. What are the dimensions of the "Truck Turn Around Area?" Approximately
250' x 95'.
f. Will the "Truck Turn Around Area" have a 'smooth' finish? The pad will be
bladed, rolled, and compacted for a processed finished.
g. What are the quantities of the substances and chemicals (all the MSDS)?
Provide a spreadsheet showing the chemical name, trade name, and the
anticipated maximum quantity present at any time. Please find the
attached Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasure Plan (SPCC) for
Nomac Rig #28, Exhibit 11, the currently proposed rig to drill this site.
SPCCs change periodically based on federal regulations. Copies can be
provided as needed.
