Map of
          Permits 8/12/19 - 8/25/19

Map Key
Red dots: items in this permit list with an exact location.
Blue stars: Marcellus Gas Well Water Sources.
Where well laterals are mapped they show in red; a 400-foot buffer surrounding the lateral shows in blue (lavender where it overlaps a mapped mineral tract).
Where mineral tracts are mapped, they show in pink. Mineral tracts can overlap; the overlap will show in red. The precise meaning of "mineral tract" is not clear.
Municipality shading: number of "facilities", with each well counting separately
(includes the red dots):
gray: 0
pale turquoise: 1
turquoise: 2
pale blue: 3
middle blue: 4
dark blue: 5
dark purple: 7
purple: 14
(Color coding may differ from one issue to the next.)
(Note if a project spans multiple municipalities -- e.g. a pipeline -- it will show in the count for each municipality.)

The number of facilities also follows the municipality name in brackets.

Municipality counts are based on the way the permit is listed by DEP; DEP has been known to get a municipality wrong.

Locations in brackets identify a precise location used to locate a surrogate for the actual site being permitted (e.g. locating a well pad or pipeline by the known location of a well.) Locations labeled beginning with "~" and ending in "[?]" are approximate and speculative based on inferences using on-line property and lease records. These are marked in the text as "[Approximate, Speculative]

Cross-hatching: Environmental Justice Areas
Yellow triangles: Compressor Stations
Orange triangles: Storage Field Wells (currently Dominion North Summit Storage Field)
Crosses: SPUD Unconventional well permits
Green: "Natural areas", e.g. state game lands, state forests

Notes:

There is some serious confusion in DEP's understanding of the municipality for the Fayette Energy Facility, permit #
26-00535B. The Site Record for this permit shows two municipalities, Masontown Boro and German Twp; DEP's latitude and longitude point to only German Twp, but the PA Bulletin entry only lists Masontown. Based on the mapping, it looks like Masontown is incorrect, and the municipality should be German Twp.

The Application for Temporary Storage at the Yoder Well Pad includes the following narrative:

Well pad activities include drilling and completions. The water will be temporarily stored in a 2 tank system provided by Well Water Solutions, a 10k BBL inside a 17k BBL. The tanks will be constructed on the cut side of the tank pad. They will be built on-site by a panel & bolt design, including a leak detection system with electronic tank level monitoring. Freeboard can also be measured by a measuring stick at the tank. The 17k tank will be built from the 20k tank design, but with 1 fewer panel. The tanks will be 11' 8" in height. The 10k tank will hold roughly 8600 BBLS (76BBL x 114" of water) keeping 2' of freeboard. The 17k tank will provide greater than 110% containment. The 10k tank will be double lined with the GSE liner, and the 17k containment tank will be single lined with the GSE liner. The tanks will be supplied by a freshwater pipeline, as well as water trucks hauling reuse, flowback and/or produced water from other well pads or WMGR123 facilities. Duck ponds will be utilized under hose connections while loading/offloading. There will be 8 truck offloading "candy canes", and 2 dewatering "candy canes". Some trucks may already be equipped with drip pans. Temporary water storage and frac will be occurring within the same ESCGP limit of disturbance (LOD). The water will be mixed in the 10k tank and will be piped over to the frac on the adjacent well pad. The piping system will be made of HDPE DR11. Once frac operations are completed on the well site, the tanks will be dewatered by water trucks and cleaned by an approved waste company. 100% of the water brought in (excluding freshwater) to support the frac will be used as per the 100% rule. The pipelines will be removed between the tank pad and well site. The waste generated during the cleaning process will be disposed of at an approved waste facility. The tanks will then be deconstructed. Tank liners and all additional waste associated with deconstruction will also be disposed of at an approved disposal facility. The tanks referenced above have been accepted by PADEP and have a Modular Aboveground Storage System (MASS) approval.
Planned dates to be used, from 09-1-2019  to 8-1-2020

DEP defines an environmental justice area as "any census tract where 20 percent or more individuals live in poverty, and/or 30 percent or more of the population is minority". (See:
<http://www.dep.pa.gov/PublicParticipation/OfficeofEnvironmentalJustice/Pages/default.aspx>). There are supposed to be enhanced public participation requirements for permits in environmental justice areas, but news of this actually ever happening is scarce. In Fayette County, the entirety of Redstone, Springhill, Nicholson, and German Townships are environmental justice areas, as well as a large part of Dunbar Township. DEP's policy document on public participation guidelines for environmental justice areas is located here:
<http://www.elibrary.dep.state.pa.us/dsweb/Get/Version-48671/012-0501-002.pdf>

eNOTICE records are likely to list the same permit multiple times, as that permit moves through the DEP process.

Oil & Gas Wells designated with a site a number and the letter H typically designate horizontal wells.

Marcellus Shale waste disposal injection wells in Pennsylvania are regulated directly by EPA, not DEP. Notice of any new permit applications will appear at the above web address.  I'm not aware of any subscription service to be notified of such applications. I'm not aware of any Marcellus Shale waste disposal injection wells in Fayette County (yet ...) but we need to monitor this page for future applications.

Disclaimers:

This compilation from the above sources was done in part by hand using copy and paste and in part using automated methods; it may omit relevant permits.

Parcel data is provided via the tax records search web page offered by the Fayette County Assessment Office (http://property.co.fayette.pa.us/). Presumed Parcel Id links are subject to availability provided by that agency and associated web sites. Presumed Parcel Ids are determined as the mapped parcel containing a given latitude and longitude, are a best effort determination which is subject to error, and are not official. In cases where a facility is leased and there is a separate parcel id for the lease, if this parcel id is not separately mapped, the parcel id shown will be the id for the enclosing parcel. Parcel owners may be surface owners only and may or may not have any relationship to oil & gas facilities.

Does not currently include water supply permits. Does not include landfill permits even though many such are for Marcellus Shale waste. (It is not possible at this time to distinguish which landfill permits are for Marcellus Shale waste and which are not without doing File Review for each permit.)

Erosion & Sedimentation permit records do not currently include latitude and longitude. Where I am publishing latitude and longitude with E&S permits it is by inferring an associated well permit and using published latitude and longitude for the well. It is possible I may be inferring the wrong well site.

Municipalities are shown from eFACTS records on the DEP web site. The DEP has been known to list a municipality incorrectly.
