for each end point of the setback distance marker. n/a
If any of the above are not applicable please indicate in the description and include a brief explanation as to
why the item is not applicable)
12. Describe the control measures that will be implemented to prevent significant damage to or erosion of the
receiving water channel at the point of discharge.
The effluent water will be piped from Rock Well’s production field east to the proposed outfall at the
Bighorn River (Map 1). The town of Greybull has given permission to Rock Well to tie their discharge
pipeline into the town’s storm sewer line. The effluent will flow to the river under low-flow gravity
drainage only (no pumps). This storm sewer is piped and discharges to the west side of the Bighorn
River; the last ~40 feet above the river outfall is a rock-lined open channel that reduces discharge flow
velocity and erosive energy.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________
13. Describe the control measures that will be implemented to achieve water quality standards and effluent
limits. If proposing to utilize a treatment process, provide a description of the treatment process.
Oilfield produced water will be treated at the production field prior to discharge by passing it through
typical oil skim tanks or pits to which Champion “Cleartron ZB-216” de-emulsifier has been added to
reduce oil and grease concentrations to the 10 mg/L limit. After the skim tank treatment, water will be
stored in a 10,000-barrel storage tank and aeration/evaporation pond (Map 1) and to further reduce
volatile organic compound concentrations prior to discharge.
_______________________________________________________________________________________
14. Outfall locations must be established as part of a preliminary field reconnaissance survey using GPS or
conventional survey equipment and documented in Table 1. Please document the type of equipment used, the
expected accuracy of your measurements, and a brief rationale for locating the outfalls at the requested sites
below.
The outfall listed on Table 1 and shown on Map 1 was located in the field using a Trimble brand Geo
XH model GPS unit using a wide-angle augmentation system with an approximate accuracy of 50 feet.
The Town of Greybull has given permission to Rock Well to tie their pipeline into this storm sewer,
installed by the Town, to convey their discharge water the remaining distance to the river. This will
make use of an already existing pipeline, saving the disturbance, time, and expense of installing a new

20. For new facilities, provide the expected (estimated) flow volume from each well in gallons per day, and
provide the rationale behind the flow volume estimate. For existing facilities, provide actual flow data from
all wells within the last six months.
Based on Rock Well’s site water production measurements, total (all wells) maximum daily flow is
estimated at 3500 barrels per day (= 102 gpm) produced water + 7 gpm tunnel water = 109 gpm total
effluent = 157,080 gallons per day = 0.157 MGD = 0.243 cubic feet per second.
___________________________________________________________________________________________
21. For applications for new facilities, are any of the required chemical constituents in the laboratory analysis
present in concentrations above Wyoming Water Quality Standards?

Only very limited historical river water quality data could be located for typical oil production water
constituents for comparison to Rock Well’s effluent. To date, Rock Well has collected 2 Bighorn River
water quality samples: 1 depth- and width-integrated composite sample collected from the Rt. #14
bridge downstream of the proposed discharge point, and 1 grab sample collected the same day at the
proposed discharge point at the west bank of the river for comparison to the composite (Table 4 and
Appendix B).
The predicted resultant water quality mixture of effluent plus Bighorn River water is nearly the same
quality as current Bighorn River water quality – see river water quality (Table 4) and mixing analysis
(Table 5). This mixing estimate conservatively assumes the maximum concentrations from the
produced water and tunnel water database (Table 3) and the minimum concentrations from the river
water database beginning with 2007 samples (Table 4). The river flow rate assumed (163,385 gpm) is
equivalent to the river low flow 7Q10 value (364 cfs) referenced from the Town of Greybull’s
WYPDES permit No. WY0020583 already discharging to the Bighorn River downstream (north) of Rock
Well’s proposed outfall.
25. Provide a listing of all active permits or construction approvals received or applied for by the applicant for
the site described in this permit application in accordance with Chapter 2, Section 5.T. of the Wyoming
Water Quality Rules and Regulations.
