E. All displaced fluids shall be captured and hauled to an approved disposal facility.

F. An earthen pit may be dug to capture any cement circulated to surface and to wash up cementing equipment.

G. If the casing test fails or no test is conducted, all balanced plugs shall be tagged after a minimum wait on cement curing time of 4-hours. A casing test shall consist of

Date: September 3, 2020 pressuring up casing to 500 pounds per square inch (psi) for 30-minutes with no more than a 10% bleed off in pressure.
