RE: Oxy Air Permitting Status for Pond G Water lmpoundment
Pond G Resolution #2013-77 (COA #5)
Dear Mr. Hartman,
760 Horizon Drive, Sulla 101
Grand Junction, CO 81506
OXY USA WTP LP (Oxy) indicated in a letter dated 10118/13 that a RACT analysis would be completed
for the Pond G Water lmpoundment Site (COA #5). After further analysis of current produced water
volume stored in Pond G, it was determined that the pond meets an air permitting exemption and that a
RACT analysis would not be necessary for the site. Oxy intends to operate Pond G on a limited, as-
needed status based on current production and future drilling and completions activities. Reduced water
storage allows Pond G to be operated under the exemption by limiting water throughput and emissions.
Oxy intends to operate Pond Gunder the following exemption within Regulation Number 3 :
11.D.l.mm. Swface water storage impou11dme11t of 11011-potable water and storm water
evaporation ponds, witlz tlze exceptions of oil and gas production wastewater impoundments
(including produced water ta11ks) co11tai11i11g equal to or more than one perce11t by volume crude
oil on an annual average and commercial facilities that accept oil and gas production
wastewater for processing .
Oxy will monitor the ponds to ensure hydrocarbons remain below I% as referenced in the exemption
language, and pond emissions remain below specific levels to prevent the applicability of federal
requirements.
Please contact me if you have any questions, comments, concerns, or if you require additional
information. I can be reached at 970.263.3601 or at michael brygger@oxy.com.
