Questions? Current Ordinance Potential Area Available = 576 acres (approx.) Option 1 Potential Area Available = 176 acres (approx.) Option 2 Potential Area Available = 131 acres (approx.) Seek Advice from the Attorney Regarding Possible Updates to the Oil & Gas Regulations Oil & Gas Drilling Ordinance At the June 6, 2007 City Council meeting staff presented responses to Mayor Pro Tem Carolyn Morris questions and presented the distance requirement analysis. Technical Questions Oil and gas production lines can not exceed 100 psi and be buried 6’ depth. No open flow testing is allowed. All well lines must be equipped with high/low pressure shut off valves. Each producing well must be equipped with a down hole shut-off valve storm choke. Other Questions Continue to require access to wells and drill sites must be from state or federal highways? Continue to require I-2 zoning? Increase distance requirements to a 1,000 ft. for residential and 1,500 ft. for school, church, day care and public buildings? QUESTIONS Background City Council requested that staff evaluate possible changes to the gas & oil drilling ordinance presented by Mayor Pro Tem Carolyn Morris 2004- Ordinance Amendment Process Zoning Ordinance Amendment 480-YY Amended the SUP section to allow operations in the I-2 district & provide specific regulations for operations. City Code Amendment Addresses technical operations and maintenance standards such as emergency processes, security, environmental protection, insurance, requirements, etc. Comments/Questions Can the city increase the $2,000 per day fine? - State law provides a maximum penalty of $2,000 per day per violation of a city ordinance regulating public health and safety. Who issues the final permit? - SUP (PDS); Grading Permit (PDS); Road Repair Agreement (Public Works); Drainage Plan (Public Works); oil & gas permit (staff, city council, oil & gas consultant ???). Comments/Questions Continue to allow drilling only in I-2 zoning? - By restricting gas drilling to a limited area of the city increases the likelihood that a legal challenge may be levied alleging a compensable taking.

Grapevine -$10,000,000 Ft. Worth -$10,000,000 Grapevine -$10,000,000 Colleyville -$10,000,000 Trophy Club -$10,000,000 Keller -$10,000,000 Mansfield -$10,000,000 - Staff will consult with insurance industry expert. Should drill site buffers areas be increased to 1,000’ from residential or commercial building (currently 600’) and 1,500’ from school, church, hospital and day care (currently 1,000). - The ordinance can be amended but is subject to a legal challenge if it prohibits drilling entirely in the city. Oil & Gas Ordinance Options Analysis of potential areas based on the Current Ordinance 600’ from residential and commercial structures 1,000’ from public building sites (including schools, day cares, institutions) Analysis of potential areas based on Option 1: 1,000’ from residential and commercial structures 1,000’ from public building sites (including schools, day cares, institutions) Analysis of potential areas based on Option 2: 1,000’ from residential and commercial structures 1,500’ from public building sites (including schools, day cares, institutions) Current Ordinance Current Ordinance Current Ordinance Option 2 Option 2 Option 2 Comments/Questions Should the screening requirements for the production site be amended? (Permanent production site – 8’ screening made of brick, concrete, earthen berm or a combination of all three). - determined during the SUP requirement. Noise levels can not exceed 70 decibels at a point 300’ from a well site. - Recommendation is to regulate noise based on the surrounding ambient noise levels. Comments/Questions Should the requirements for surface pits be reevaluated? - Not currently allowed. Some localities reconsidering this rule to allow a fresh water frac ponds if the pond is converted into an amenity after the drilling process is completed. - Add a requirement that a closed loop mud system be used to extract and hold salt water should be incorporated into the ordinance. Comments/Questions Evaluate of other current requirements: Oil and gas production lines can not exceed 100 psi and be buried 6’ depth. No open flow testing is allowed. All well lines must be equipped with high/low pressure shut off valves. Each producing well must be equipped with a down hole shut-off valve storm choke. - The city’s gas and oil consultant is reviewing the requirements to determine if they need to be revised to meet current safety standards. Continue to require access to wells and drill sites must be from state or federal highways. - This restriction may give rise to a taking claim QUESTIONS Gas & Oil Well Drilling CP 07-005 (Discussion Only) Ordinance 480-RRR (1st Reading) Ordinance 880-A (1st Reading) QUESTIONS Gas & Oil Well Drilling CP 07-005 (Discussion Only) Ordinance 480-RRR (1st Reading) Ordinance 880-A (1st Reading) QUESTIONS Title of Presentation John Doe Gas & Oil Well Drilling May 6, 2008 Joint PZ Commission/City Council Meeting Presentation Outline Background Detailed Overview Comments/Questions Background-Existing Ordinance SUP requirement Gas well permit required to meet the technical standards Road Repair Agreement In October of 2004, the City adopted code and zoning amendments to address oil & gas drilling.
