OS-6870 Authorization to extend an existing surface lease area for a multi-well pad

A surface lease extension consisting of 0.32 ha area for drilling and operating three additional oil wells will be constructed and maintained for the operating life of the wells, then decommissioned and reclaimed before the lease agreement is surrendered.

The proposed surface lease extension will be located along the south and west boundary of an existing wellsite at 14-09-057-03W3.  The proposed surface lease extension is to be located entirely within cultivated lands. Two wetlands have been identified within 100m of the proposed wellsite extension. One wetland is within the northwest corner of the existing wellsite, and the second wetland is adjacent to the west boundary of the wellsite and proposed extension. The nearest fish-bearing body is Frog Creek, located approximately 2km east of the existing wellsite and extension.
