OS-7263 Authorization to Construct and Operate a Surface Lease for an access road and for a multiwell oil pad

A surface lease consisting of a 598.2 m access road and 2.29 ha. area for drilling and operating a multiwell oil padsite will be constructed and maintained for the operating life of the well(s), then decommissioned and reclaimed before the lease agreement is surrendered.

The proposed project uses a single padsite to drill multiple wells (currently 5 wells are proposed) and has been located to avoid direct impacts to nearby wetlands. The newly proposed padsite and access road have been configured to avoid direct impacts to wetlands, while being in proximity to the existing access in the immediate area. No fish bearing waterbodies or large open waterbodies will be impacted or are in close proximity to the proposed padsite.
