Executive Summary

This Project presents a review of Phase 2 Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) data from past drilling waste disposal locations to better understand the effectiveness of the Alberta Energy Regulator (AER) document “Assessing Drilling Waste Disposal Areas: Compliance Options for Reclamation Certification” (ADWDA, AER 2014). The intended outcome of this work program is to evaluate the salinity and drill stem test (DST) endpoints as these conditions/calculations occurred in the highest frequency. A total of 1681 sites were reviewed with 510 candidate sites identified for statistical evaluation.
