APPLICATION FOR A TEMPORARY PERMIT TO OPERATE AN
EXPLORATION AND PRODUCTION WASTE FACILITY

In 2019, the Utah Legislature made changes to the Solid and Hazardous Waste Act, Utah Code § 19-6-
101 et seq., which required jurisdiction over the disposal of Oil and Gas Exploration and Production
Waste move from the Department of Natural Resources’ Division of Oil, Gas, and Mining (DOGM) to the
Department of Environmental Quality’s Division of Waste Management and Radiation Control (DWMRC).
In preparation for this regulatory shift, DWMRC has proposed a temporary permitting mechanism for
existing Exploration and Production (E&P) facilities as defined in the proposed Utah Admin. Code R315-
301-2(22)(a).

The proposed rules state that the Director of DWMRC may issue a temporary permit for the purposes of
facilitating the owner’s or operator’s good faith transition from regulation under Utah Admin. Code R649-9
to regulation under Utah Admin. Code R315-321 or R315-322. Applications for temporary permits must
be received by the Director of DWMRC no less than 30 days before October 1, 2024. The temporary
permits will expire one year from the effective date, which is the date the financial assurance mechanism
held by DOGM is transferred to DWMRC.

To complete a temporary permit application to operate an E&P facility, an owner or operator of an existing
E&P facility must:

1. Register the company in DWMRC’s Community Portal and complete facility information within the
Community Portal.

2. Complete the attached Exploration and Production Waste Facility Temporary Permit Application
Form.

3. Provide DWMRC with the following required documentation, to the extent it has not already been
provided to DWMRC or is not already in DWMRC’s possession:
a. Facility map with each landfarm cell, landfill cell, and surface impoundment labeled;
b. Copy of Division of Oil, Gas, and Mining Permit;
c. Copy of Division of Oil, Gas, and Mining Permit Approval/Issuance Letter; and
d. Copy of Division of Oil, Gas, and Mining Bonding (financial assurance).

4. Submit the Application Form and required documentation to DWMRC through the Community
Portal Miscellaneous Document Submission.

5. Within 120 days of DWMRC’s issuance of a temporary permit, the financial assurance
mechanism held by DOGM must be transferred to DWMRC. If the Director issues a temporary
permit, it shall not become effective until the financial assurance mechanism held by DOGM is
transferred to DWMRC. An effective temporary permit is required to operate an E&P Facility
under DWMRC’s jurisdiction.

B.Site Description and Assessment, Closure and Post Closure Cost Estimate and
Bond Evaluation
The following narrative addresses requirements established for permit renewal of the titled facility as
described in in Utah Division of Oil, Gas and Mining guidance document, Five Year E&P Waste Disposal
Facility Permit Renewals. (re: Utah Oil & Gas Conservation General Rules R649-9-8.5.1 Bonding of
Disposal Facilities), dated August 2017.
1.Description and Assessment of Existing Conditions
a.Site Description:
The RN Industries (RNI) Chapita Exploration & Production (E&P) Waste Disposal is located
on approximately 240 Acres in the NW/4 of Section 2 of T 9S, R 22E, SLB&M. See site map
in Attachment 1.
The current site has one Skimming pond, an off-load area and nine operational evaporation
ponds. The operational evaporation ponds range nominally from 0.11 to 4.46 acres in size.
Liquid E&P Waste is discharged from tank trucks into the skim pond. It is then directed into one
of the nine operational evaporation ponds. Oil is removed from the skimming pond as needed
and transported to a separate oil cleaning facility. See Existing Process Flow Diagram in
Attachment 1.
Stormwater Detention basins are located in the NW/4, NW/4, SE/4, NW/4 and SW/4, NE/4, Sect
9 have been designed to hold runoff generated by a 25-year, 24-hour storm until the runoff can
be sampled and lab-tested. Depending on lab results the water will be either released to the
local drainage, held to evaporate in place, diverted to evaporation ponds or disposed by some
combination of the three aforementioned methods.
b.Contamination Evaluation
There is no known or observable surface soil contamination on this site.
No process-induced vadose zone soil or unconfined aquifer contamination is known to exist.
There are no known records of incomplete spill clean-up.
Process containment berms, sumps and similar enclosures are free from pooled oil and/ or
measurable contaminated oil accumulation.
c.Equipment Assessment
Major construction and equipment operated at this facility has been observed by Engineer. Any
tests performed to assess equipment condition were cursory in nature. A review of equipment
repair and maintenance records provided by Owner form the basis of the Engineer's opinion of
service life expectancy.
Service life expectancy is based upon the assumption that appropriate, regular maintenance and
equipment repair has been and will continue to be performed.
It is the Engineer's opinion that all major equipment and infrastructure construction at this facility
is in expected condition for its age. Future assessment of life expectancy can be based on age.

More particularly:
i.Site roadways are constructed and maintained with appropriate wearing surface, drainage
and turning radii for expected traffic.
ii.Road and site drainage show no signs of overflow, debris accumulation or excessive
erosion.
iii.Earthen structures are free of piping and excessive erosion.
iv.Observable portions of piping and HDPE liners are not excessively worn or weathered.
v.When last operated no observable pump seals showed excessive leakage.
vi.Buildings -There are no permanent buildings located at the Chapita Disposal Site.
vii.Mobile Equipment
No mobile equipment is permanently assigned to this site
d.Practices Assessment
Engineer has reviewed Owner provided operating procedures and has observed those procedures
in practice. Owner and Engineer offer the following practice changes to improve efficiency and
environmental protections.
i.Water Disposal Operation Assessment
Rev 20180515
This Disposal has been operated less than 50% of the time during the last five years. The
following observations apply to time periods when the Disposal is regularly used in a
normal operating mode.
Strong consideration should be given to complete closure, step-wise closure or sale of this
facility to reduce Owner liability unless there is a superseding business reason to do
otherwise.
Controls for the process described in B.1.a., above and shown on the Process Flow
Diagram in Attachment 1, have, for the most part not been automated. Only minor
portions of equipment and controls are automated. Most automation is intrinsic to
individual pieces of equipment.
Operators appear to be very familiar with the overall plant process and perform
process Quality Control for a large percentage of their time. Throughout their
working hours operators sample process liquids for anomalies. Whenever process
liquids or machinery operation appears abnormal operators will intervene in one of
two ways.
Most often the operator will make equipment and process adjustments for which the
operator has been trained and given authority to perform.
Process and equipment adjustments which appear to be needed, but which operator
has not been authorized to perform, are immediately brought to the attention of
other operating staff and plant management for resolution.
Large equipment temperatures, pressures, flowrates and the like are constantly
monitored by operating staff and management. Although some process monitoring
parameters are observed via remote displays, most instrument monitoring and all
sampling is locally observed/performed.
Leak detection equipment is monitored regularly.

It is the Engineer's opinion that:
No additional process monitoring automation is warranted for any reason at this
Disposal unless it is returned to regular, continuous use or operation.
Frequency of leak detection monitoring should be decreased (i.e. allow a longer time
between subsequent observations) to quarterly time periods.
Process sampling should continue to be performed manually and locally when
Disposal is in operation because this facility is not big enough to warrant remote
and/or automated process sampling.
The biggest process variable is the type of waste brought to the Facility. It is the
Engineer's opinion there is no commercially available, off-the-shelf (COTS)
equipment to classify incoming waste. There is no Reasonably Available Control
Technology (RACT) or even Best Available Control Technology (BACT) that is
economically viable for RNI to implement. The methods that remain ( client waste
certification, periodic waste testing by client, waste evaluation by experienced staff
and similar) are best available for the RNI operation and should continue to be used.
ii.Landfarm Operation Assessment
No landfarms have ever been operated at this facility.
e.Monitoring Program
Water sampling and testing, visual equipment inspection, pressure tests, sampling and analysis of
material collected by leak detection systems and waste mass balance calculations used at this
facility are described below. Additional or re-configured monitoring practices which could
reasonably and economically improve detection of inadvertent waste release are also described
below. According to Owner provided records, sampling and testing for spill and/or leak clean-up
is always performed to verify that all needed clean-up is complete.
i.Water Sampling and testing is performed on all liquid taken from leak detection sumps.
ii.Leak Detection Monitoring of designated leak detection sumps occurs regularly.
f.Additional or re-configured monitoring practices which could reasonably and economically
improve operational efficacy and detection of inadvertent waste release are described below.
To enhance early detection of inadvertent waste release and more accurately determine leak
sources while this Disposal is dormant RNI should consider adding a chemical marker to certain
waste streams.
2.Closure Cost and Bonding Evaluation
Bond cost components referenced in this section have been determined by applying unit costs to
quantity take-off from drawings and documents provided by Owner and cursory field inspections and
surveys by the Engineer.
a.Contamination Evaluation
No evidence of Soil, Surface Water or Groundwater contamination was found at this facility.

None required.
c.Site Closure Evaluation Scope of Work
Upon closure, potential soil contamination will be identified with a Photo Ionization Detector
(PID) survey. Groundwater quality and surface water will be sampled lab-tested. Hazardous
substances stored or used on site will be inventoried and removed as appropriate. Costs for this
evaluation are included in calculated closure costs.
d.Infrastructure Removal Scope of Work
The cost to remove all site infrastructure and equipment as may be reasonable and necessary to
return site to a condition similar to its use and appearance before being used as an E&P Waste
Disposal is included in reclamation cost estimate.
No costs are included to reclaim and/or improve the site to conditions better than those occurring
before its use as and E&P Disposal or markedly better than exist on adjacent property. Grading
and contouring the site to the exact site geometry before site was used as an E&P Disposal has
not been used as a reclamation criterion.
Generally, infrastructure removal closure cost estimates include:
i.Removal all tanks, security fence, buildings, liner materials, piping and concrete structures
which do not add value to the site are included in the Infrastructure Removal portion of
closure costs.
ii.Earthwork and grading to restore site to a serviceable condition similar to, and in keeping
with surrounding land use and drainage.
e.Seeding and Revegetation Scope of Work
Seeding/revegetation cost based on drag harrowing and hydroseeding is included in the closure
cost estimate. Seed mixture and application rate determined by Great Basin Company of
Ephraim, Utah are included in this component of closure cost estimate.
f.Initial Closure Monitoring Report
This report will describe:
i.Estimated closure PID survey results and required sampling and lab testing.
ii.Groundwater and surface water sampling and lab-testing.
iii.Inventory of hazardous substances removed from site.
iv.Site grading, revegetation and erosion control.
g.Post Closure Monitoring Scope of Work
Post closure monitoring and care cost will include annual:
i.Erosion control and surface drainage management.
ii.Sampling and testing of site ground and surface water as described in the initial closure
report.
iii.Written reports describing the condition of the reclaimed site and work performed to
monitor and maintain reclaimed site.

The purpose of this letter is to respond to your questions regarding the Seep Ridge and Cha pita
disposal facilities posed in an email to Austin Weddle on January 18. 2019:
1. Which of the ponds are currently in use?
• The Seep Ridge facility is currently active and receiving water
• The Chapita facility is currently inactive .
2. What work was done last year?
• There was no reclamation work performed in 2018
3 . Please provide me a plan for this year including a rough anticipated timeline.
• RHI is evaluating reclamation options for the Cha pita facility for 2019. We would prefer to do
reclamation work with our own crews and equipment but for at least the first half of this year
we will be using our resources to perform work that UDOGM has requested at our Wonsits and
Bluebell facilities . We are also waiting on approval from the Utah State DEQ to begin expansion
work on our landfill at the Wonsits facility. This expansion will be a necessary part of the
Cha pita reclamation as it will provide us a place to take the liners and other solids from the
facility prior to recontouring.
If you have additional questions, please feel free to contact me .

SUBJECT: Re: RNI Chapita Pond #7 Reclamation
Dear Mr. Weddle:
The Utah Division of Oil, Gas and Mining (Division) received DHI Energy Service’s
Proposed Pond Closure Plan prepared for the RNI Chapita Evaporation Facility. Division
approval was granted for the submitted reclamation proposal.

Sampling points have shown that the soil samples beneath Pond #7 are within the
expected background range for all of the contaminants of concern. DHI Energy is hereby
permitted to continue with the final reclamation of Pond #7, as proposed in the approved Pond
Closure Plan.

If you have questions, feel free to contact Ammon McDonald at [phone].

Sincerely,

Dayne Doucet
Oil & Gas Permit Manager
