GENERATOR KNOWLEDGE 

All Form 26R Waste Forms have been compiled, and future testing has been scheduled, to obtain samples of each waste stream on a PAD by PAD basis. Sample analyses will be conducted every 5 years for each waste stream unless the process that generates any particular waste stream is substantially altered. 

Attached analytical results for this waste stream have been obtained from a similar 

waste stream producing waste from the same geologic formation as this 26R Report. 

Additionally, the mud mixtures, chemical form~lations and drilling process utilized at this well PAD are substantially the same as those utilized at the well where the attached 

waste analyticals were generated. 
Brine fluids are composited within the storage production tank or tank battery at each well site where gas production is occurring. Each automatic or manual ejection of formation fluids is deposited into the tank(s) and added to the previously ejected and stored quantity. Tanks are emptied into tank trucks for disposal at various PaDEP permitted waste disposal facilities on different schedules determined by individual well characteristics. Grab samples of the composited fluids were obtained at the 

represented well pads directly from the storage tank drain ports. All drain ports had small "built in" containment and storage "buckets" capable of retaining small amounts of lost fluids. 

Samples were obtained with bottle sets prepared at the laboratory which contained appropriate preservatives, as necessary, depending on the specific test run requested. All chain of custody and handling/holding time requirements were met In some cases, 

a larger sample was broken into appropriate sampling containers and smaller aliquot portions at the laboratory. 

Flowback samples were composited to the extent possible during the flowback process primarily during times where safety issues did not override sample collection requirements. 

Generally, a larger composite sample was broken into appropriate sampling containers and smaller aliquot portions at the laboratory or on the well location upon completion of the composite sampling process. Samples were distributed into bottle sets prepared at the laboratory which contained appropriate preservatives, as necessary, depending on the specific test run requested. All chain of custody and handling/holding time requirements were met. 

Drill cuttings were composite sampled during the drilling process at various times and combined into a composite sample for analyses at the laboratory. On several wells, cuttings from the vertical portion of the well bore were segregated from cuttings from the target Marcellus Formation and separate testing was completed on both sample composites. In some earlier cases during the utilization of open pits, composite samples were obtained from inactive drill pits. Safety concerns usually limited the randomness of the composite sample and composite grid sample positions were varied to the extent possible. 

Pit water (drill fluid) is currently discharged to closed containment and is re-conditioned 

and reused from well to well. 
Form 26R: Section B3a 

WASTE GENERATION PROCESS 

Pit Water "Drill Fluids" 

Remnant drill fluids are generated in the well bore during the penetration of the drill 

stem as it intercepts both ground water and formation fluids. These fluids are brought to 

the surface along with the drill cuttings, pieces of the intercepted rock strata, by the 

return flow system of the drilling process. 

Drill cuttings and drill fluids are isolated into separate waste streams. Cuttings are 

mixed with sawdust to absorb remnant fluid and loaded out for disposal at a landfill. 

Fluids are currently stored in closed containers to be processed for reuse. 

Flowback: "Fracing Fluid" 

Flowback is produCed from all fluids that flow back to surface during the "hydrofracing" 

process which occurs under pressure and results in the setting of a propant within the 

formation fractures. 

Production Fluid "Brine" 

During the production of natural gas, formation pressures bring remnant frac fluids, 

during the initial production phase, and formation fluids to the surface along with 

produced gas.

RE: 26R Analysis 

Dear RICK BONAZZA: OrderNo.: G1101912 

Geochemical Testing received 1 sample(s) on 1/28/2011 for the analyses presented in the 

following report. 

There were no problems with the analyses and all QC data met NELAC, EPA, and laboratory 

specifications except where noted in the Case Narrative or Laboratory Results. 

If you have any questions regarding these tests results, please feel free to call. 

Sincerely, 

Timothy W. Bergstresser 

Director of Technical Services
