Summary

QEP and EPA signed an administrative agreement resolving Clean Air Act violations of the Federal Implementation Plan (FIP) for 38 Oil and Natural Gas Production Facilities located on the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation (?FBIR?) (Mandan, Hidatsa and Arikara Nation). Emission violations were observed by EPA inspectors utilizing a forward looking infrared (FLIR) camera during field inspections of oil and natural gas production facilities in March 2015. The proposed settlement includes a $500,000 civil penalty and robust Directed Inspection and Preventative Maintenance Program (DIPM), including IR inspections and pressure monitors on all tank systems.
