Update to Unplanned Material Leak at Mansfield Performing Arts on Saturday,September 13,2014
Posted by Admin Oct 10,2014
While we continue to wait to hear from TCEQ and TRRC, there has been many questions as to why the fire Dept didnt respond by calling the gas well operator or emergency number to come investigate the leak at the Performing Arts Center on Sept 13th. However, Barry Bondurant from Fire Dept sent an email today per the following:
"Our personnel are not trained to resolve gas well incidents, only to recognize whether or not a hazardous situation exists, and to contact the gas well emergency number to get immediate assistance. When a fire officer arrives on scene of a gas well incident, he is to size up the situation to determine what may be going on with the well site. He will then contact dispatch to make notifications to the appropriate fire department personnel following our procedures on gas well response. On most occasions the Fire Department Gas Well Inspector is notified."
"The air monitors we have are Multi-Rae lite 5 gas monitors. By "5 gas" we mean that they contain sensors which allow for 5 different measurements. LEL (lower explosive limits), CO (carbon monoxide), O2 (Oxygen), H2S (hydrogen sulfide), and HCN (hydrogen cyanide). The LEL sensor is calibrated with methane gas. You are correct that natural gas, or methane is almost undetectable in its natural state. In addition to these monitors, we also have leak detectors available. The Sensit methane detector. At the time of the incident, which this inquiry is in response to, we did not have leak detectors available on every first responding fire apparatus, only air monitors. We have since discovered some of the weaknesses of having only an air monitor. As a result, we have ordered Sensit leak detectors for all apparatus. These will be calibrated to detect methane and carbon monoxide." The concern remains that the Fire Dept is not trained and may or may not know whether a hazardous situation exists.

According to the Mansfield Ordinances, a new structure, whether home, school, daycare, park, store or church may be built as close as 100ft of a gas wellhead. This was provision was made to eliminate undevelopable zones located between the wellhead and ANY use. In 2008, File #:08-0927 there was information in this Legislative text " to make
a clarification in response to concerns that the required drill site setbacks create an undevelopable zone between the drill site and surrounding uses. The setbacks establish the minimum distance that the drill site must be kept from existing protected uses. Under the existing regulations, a drill site must be at least 600 feet from the boundary of a platted residential subdivision, and at least 600 feet from any other protected use.
In addition to these, a special setback of 1,000 feet from a hospital, nursing home,or the Law Enforcement Center has been proposed. Once a SUP for a drill site is approved by Council, the land between the
drill site and the existing uses may be developed for other uses, as the 600 or 1,000 foot setbacks no
longer apply. Instead, the property around a drill site may be developed, provided that the Fire Code
setbacks are met: a minimum 100-foot separation from a wellhead to a new residential, commercial, or industrial building or structure; a minimum 300-foot separation from a wellhead to an institutional use; and a
miminum 75-foot separation from a wellhead to public,street or highway."
With that said, if the gas wells existed first, setbacks are set at a minimal of 100ft. Mansfield is already providing for new subdivisions around several gaswell sites in south Mansfield. As it stands now, there are no required disclosures that homes, schools, parks or day cares are built this close to existing gas wellheads.

It appears that the incident last Saturday was more than just the gas wells letting off steam. EagleRidge gas well operator's crew repaired a leak at a hole located on a pipe fitting.
An inquiry has been filed for an investigation by Texas Railroad commission for both well site and pipeline safety and Texas commission for environmental quality. Video has been sent to all pertinent parties. And an inquiry has been made with the fire marshal as to the Fire depts rationale for not calling either the gas well operator or gas well inspector when they discovered the leak at 3 am. A public records review has been requested to review all of the findings related to that event. The report will be posted when received.

High Pressure material venting into air at Performing Arts Center in Mansfield, TX Saturday morning Sept 13, 2104 Posted by Admin September 13, 2014 |
An unplanned event at the EagleRidge gas well site right behind Mansfield Performing Arts Center( PAC) was discovered at 6:53 am Saturday by a citizen that heard the loud hissing noise and saw white cloud formations from her back yard. Finding no planned activity for the site, she went to the PAC. Seeing no workers or other individuals present at the site to monitor or control the gushing emissions, she called 911. The Fire Dept came, but did not investigate as they had " heard it at 3 am , did a reading on it" and explained that it was only the gas wells letting off "steam." Furthermore, they did not notify the gas well operator nor the gas well inspector. Gas well inspector was then notified at 7:21 am by the concerned citizen. The Gas well inspector contacted Eagle Ridge to come inspect. It appears that there may have been faulty
valves that caused the high pressure release of material into the air. The fact that an unpredictable, unscheduled event was left uncontrolled for hours is frightening, but more importantly that the Fire Dept, just hundreds of feet away ,thought all was well! Had I not heard the noise from my backyard, investigated and finally called for help, I wonder how long the Fire Dept would have waited and how much material would have spewed into the air before they called someone? |

Mansfield Get First Glimpse at Proposal for Medical Waste Site
Admin post; August 22, 2014
A debate comes from concerned citizens in Mansfield because of a proposal to use a 15,000 sq ft building to start up operations in the medical waste processing business. Residents are concerned whether it is safe to process and store 50 tons daily of medical waste coming as far as Lousiana to our area. TCEQ headed the meeting with assuring the residents that regulatory processes were put in place to be protective of the environment and the citizens living here.
Now, this type of problematic information is why this article has arrived at our gas well awareness site. Any of us here, fighting for reduced toxic emissions, safer water and cleaner air to breathe, know all too well TCEQ's reputatation for regulatory confusion, vague responsibility and sometimes not addressing the issues at hand. This type of industrial use, and those that are similar which subjects our community to potential risks with toxic repercussions, is becoming habitual for Mansfield. The citizens in Mansfield need to fight for not allowing such industrial uses within our neighborhoods, schools and daycares. Once here, regulatory control will be limited and depending on who sells and buys, determines if ethical practices will continue--or not. Mansfield needs to look for more environmental friendly business to enhance our economy. For more on the proposed plan see here

Texas Railroad Commission-Who Permits and Regulates Gas Well Compressor Stations?
posted by Admin August 2, 2014
According to the Gas and Oil Division of Texas Railroad Commission "Railroad Commission of Texas does not issue permits for gas compressor station, nor do we have jurisdiction over the placement of a gas compressor station." Then, are they regulated by the City, TCEQ? Good Question----

City of Mansfield updated its Gas Well Activity Log
posted by Admin August 2, 2014.
This week Mansfield Planning II updated it's Gaswell Activity site to include the number of wells that have been permitted. This came after several attempts by residents to contact the dept for the number of wells that are in current operations and how many have been permitted. After 4 days of the city" looking into the matter", Planning II came up with an answer. Then, created an additional area beneath the Activity Log to contain that info. Kuddos for finally doing this! However, according to Planning II, " The City does not track whether the wells are in production as that information is filed by the operator with Texas Railroad Commission." Since the City doesnt know this information, how would they know when a well site becomes " uneconomical to operate and there is a need to plug and restore." How would they keep up with the accurate amount of dollars owed for City royalities? Perhaps Planning II could be more dynamic and take the lead from Grand Prairie's interactive gas well website? Now that's transparency!

Mansfield 2012 Landuse Plan update:
Posted by admin August 2, 2014 According to sources for City Planning II, the land Use Plan is a 'general planning tool" and there is no "ordinance or authority over development." Currently, the Plan has 350 acres slotted for gas and oil production, with 158.52(45%) acres of that scheduled to be in developed area. With 206 gaswells currently in operations and multiply the average distance for horizontal drilling underground, it is estimated that there is about 237 miles of drilling going on beneath the City of Mansfield. Furthermore, Planning II dept comments "there is no limit on the amount of land that can be used for any land use, including drill sites and related facilities." They go on to say, ""unlike other land uses, the drilling authority on most drill sites will expire, and if the sites become uneconomical to operate, they may be plugged and restored." So what will be left? What about an environmental impact? Who decides and is there really a Plan? |

Posted by Admin: July 15,2014 TCEQ scheduled a visit on November 26, 2013 to investigate Texas Energy Midstream LLC/Mansfield Compressor Station's compliance with the "Planned Maintenance, startup, shut down at Oil and Gas Handling Facilities "which became effective September 10, 2013. Findings for this compressor site revealed that no records for maintenance were available to give TCEQ. Unfortunately, TCEQ did not cite a violation for noncomplaince, but instead asked that Mansfield Comprssor Unit "please install a tracking system and submit by Feb 3, 2014."

Mansfield Moves Towards Gas Drilling Limits
Posted by Admin; July 16 ,2014
Mansfield Gas Well Ordinaces were approved in March 2014 for revision to reflect a few small changes that were brought before city council by our group: Section 114.12 V.(1) "at least 48hrs before activities begin; Section 114.12. V (2) Prior to issuance of a GasWell Permit by the City, a Gas Well Operator shall send a notice, in a form acceptable to the City, to occupants of all dwellings within 1000ft of a drill site Section 114.13 (D) 4: Fracturing operations prohibited on Sundays Section 114.13 (D) 7: The continuous noise monitoring equipment shall be capable of wireless transmission of real-time noise and audio data. Access to this real time data shall be available to the City inspector. Section 114.13 (B)An operator shall only use electric motors for purpose of drilling operations. Such electric motors shall be connected to a ground- mounted transformer located on the Drill Site or Operation Site. The City may approve alternative motor if the Drill Site or Operation Site is located more than 1,500ft from Protected Use or if electric delivery utility company reports that there is insufficient capacity to serve a Drill Site or Operation Site. |
Eagleridge Gas Drilling and operations In Mansfield Texas--its impact on awareness of poor protective city ordinances and vague state regulations. Who is responsible?
posted by Admin July 14, 014
June of 2013, Eagleridge LLC petitioned for and was granted a permit from the City of Mansfield to commence gas well drilling and production on property as little as 700ft from a neighborhood. Eagleridge's unscupulous manner in which gas well activites occurred, set in motion investigation of regulatory requirements, citizen's rights, contacts with TCEQ and meetings with City Council to enact protective Gas Well Drilling and Production ordinances for all Mansfield citizens living next to a gas well site.
Eventhough Eagleridge's toxic activities are well documented in reports, pictures and videos of repeated noise, time of operations and emissions violations, Eagleridge has yet to be fined. Why is that? Who is responsible? See the "downloads" for the reports and findings.

Mansfield 2012 Landuse Plan
Posted by Admin July 10, 2014
According to the City of Mansfield 2012 Land Use Plan, 57 gas well drill sites have been approved throughout the city that will accommodate up to 512 gas wells. As of 2014, about 206 have been drilled.
However, there is no evidence that an environmental studies impact or property value impact were considered for planning for gas well and oil production- only the financial benefit were given. Despite many voices protesting the approval of some of these sites, Mansfield City Council and Zoning approved these sites. Now our neighborhoods, day cares, and schools are existing beside these industrial use sites that go unregulated for controls for harmful air pollution, noise pollution, and use of millions of gallons of our water.
Reinvestment of Gas Well Royalities
Posted by Admin July 7,2014
City of Mansfield has collected millions of dollars in royalties from gas well production, yet $0 have been put back into the community for protective equipment, continous air monitoring; appropriate noise mitigation, adequate communication, or additional personnel to provide research for the health and safety of our protected use. No training for any major catastrophe. No adequate insurance coverage for the aftermath.

Mansfield City is a Home Rule-
Posted by Admin July 10 ,2014
Mansfield is a "home rule city acting under
its charter adopted by electorate pursuant to Article XI, Section 5 of the Texas Constitution and Chapter 9 of the Local Government code."
What does this mean?
Municipal home rule [is a] system adopted in many states of the United States by which a city
is given the right to draft and amend its own charter and to regulate purely local matters without interference from the state legislature."
