A baseline study of natural gas wells and Laramie/Fox Hills (Klf) water wells in the Greater Wattenberg Area (GWA). The purpose of this study is to document the general composition of natural gas from 77 production wells and water quality of 9 Klf water wells in the GWA. The overriding goal of the project is to use these data to address concerns about potential impacts to groundwater resources from existing or future development of oil and gas production...

Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (COGCC) seeks to understand the concentration of naturally occurring radioactive material (NORM) in solid and liquid exploration & production (E&P) related wastes generated during drilling and production activities. This Sampling and Analysis Plan (SAP)* has been developed to provide the COGCC staff and contractors procedures for the collection of representative E&P materials for the determination of NORM....

COGCC Special Project 2136 (Naturally Occurring Radioactive Materials (NORM) Study) was initiated in 2014. COGCC staff undertook a sampling program to collect representative samples of selected E&P waste for analytical laboratory evaluation for NORM. Because of the widespread practice of beneficial reuse of drill cuttings as an agricultural soils amendment, staff determined that evaluation of NORM levels in drill cuttings was an appropriate focus...
