Introduction

The majority of the wells that are scheduled for abandonment have not been established in the

Texas database. As a result very little information is available in the current solicitation regarding the construction of the monitoring wells prior to 2001. Please provide the ERPIMS database (which will contain coordinates, well materials, etc.) for Goodfellow

Air Force Base so we can plan our field activities accordingly and refine our cost estimate.

See ERPIMS well report.
