A l l wells d r i l l e d f o r o i l and gas w i l l be d r i l l e d i n accordance w i t h 30 CFR 250.34, the provisions of OCS order No. 2 and the st i p u l a t i o n s of the o i l and gas lease covering t h i s block. No garbage, untreated sewage or other s o l i d wastes s h a l l be disposed from vessels. A l l s o l i d combustible waste products w i l l be incinerated, taking great care not to endanger the r i g . A l l non-combustible material w i l l be transported to shore f o r disposal at our Surfside f a c i l i t y .
The d r i l l i n g operations w i l l be serviced from Union's shore base located at Sur f t i d e , Texas. The f a c i l i t y has docking f a c i l i t i e s f o r the marine equipment t h a t w i l l be used on t h i s lease. There i s a crane for loading and unloading materials. Union maintains
a small stock of tubular goods on the pipe racks. There are also helicopter pads where personnel and supplies can be loaded to be flown to and from the rigs. The base is manned 24-hours per day.. Goods and services for the offshore operations are located in the Freeport and Houston areas and are easily transported to this f a c i l i t y by highway and marine transportation (See Exhibit 4).
Union Oil Company of California has f i l e d an o i l s p i l l contingency plan with the Minerals Management Service i n accordance with OCS Order No. 7. This plan contains the names and telephone nunbers of company personnel who w i l l form an emergency response team in the event of an o i l s p i l l . This plan contains procedures for reporting a spi.1 and f c r responding to a reported s p i l l . Union Oil Company of Ca ifornia i s a member of Clean Gulf Associates. This association provides for the purchase and maintenance of equipment and materials for use by the members in the clean-up of an o i l s p i l l . Equipment is presently located at Galveston and Freeport, Te.-as; Cameron, Intracoastal City, Grand Isle and Venice, Louis ana. Some of the equipment available include a shallow water skinuner system with 40-barrel storage capacity, a fast response open sea and bay system with two (2) 180-barrel tanks used in skimming and storing, a high volume open sea skimmer system with 1000-barrel storage capacity. The amount of time required to get to the s p i l l w i l l vary dependent on the location of company chartered work boats or the a v a i l a b i l i t y and location of work boats for immediate charter. Equipment response time should be within 24 hours of n o t i f i c a t i o n .
Exhibit No. 5 i s in compliance with the U.S.G.S. Gulf of Mexico letter 75-8 dated June 1974. This evaluation of bottom d r i l l i n g hazards was derived from a Multi-sensor Engineering Survey using Sidescan Sonar, Magnometer, and an Acoustic Profiler of Block 205. Based upon presently available geological, geophysical and archeological information, there are no known shallow d r i l l i n g hazards at tne proposed location of the wells. A copy of the high-resolution survey data from the two lines closest to the proposed well locations i s included with one copy of the Plan of Exploration as per Paragraph II.A.5. of NTL No. 83-3.
Other relevant information and data as required includes the mud component and additive l i s t (Exhibit 6) and the Air Quality Statement (Exhibit 7).
