1.2 NEB Security and Emergency Preparedness and Response Programs

Section 48(2) of the National Energy Board Act permits the National Energy Board (NEB) to make regulations “providing for the protection of the environment and the safety of the public and of company employees in the construction, operation and abandonment of pipelines.” The NEB has determined that its regulated companies must develop and maintain Emergency Preparedness and Response (EPR) Programs to minimize the effects of incidents and emergencies that have the potential to impact the health and safety of the public, company employees, property and the environment.

Definitions of Incident, Emergency and Emergency Criteria:

1.2.1 Incident An incident is considered to be “incidents and releases (including any discharge, spray, spill, leak, seep, pour, emit, dump and exhaust) that are defined and reportable to the NEB as defined under Sections 1 and 52 of OPR-99. These are: The death of or a serious injury to a person; Releases that may have significant adverse affect on the environment; Unintended fire or explosion; Unintended or unplanned release of LP hydrocarbons in excess of 1.5 m3; Unintended or unplanned release of gas or HVP hydrocarbons; and Operation of a pipeline beyond its design limits as defined by CSA Z662, CSA Z276, or any operating limits imposed by the NEB.

1.2.2 Emergency CSA Z731-95 defines an emergency as “a present of imminent event that requires prompt coordination of actions or special regulation of persons or property to protect the health, safety or welfare of people or to limit damage to property and the environment”.

1.2.3 Terrorism and Other Criminal Activities Terrorism and/or criminal activities against the company are considered a low risk. However, if a terrorist or criminal activity occurred against the company assets (wells, pipelines or facilities), the company would work with security and law enforcement agencies.

2.1 Incident Management System

The company has adopted the Incident Command System (ICS) to manage its response activities at an incident site. The company Emergency Operations Centre (EOC) – regional (field) or corporate – will be mobilized as required. Communication protocols and procedures follow the ICS system and chain of command.

2.2 Incident Command System (ICS)

ICS is a standardized on-scene incident management model for command, control and coordination of emergency response at the incident site. ICS provides a method of communicating and coordinating the efforts of agencies and resources as they work together toward safely responding, controlling, and mitigating an incident.

2.3 Unified Command System (UC)

An Incident Command System (ICS) organization may be expanded into a Unified Command (UC). The UC is a structure that brings together the "Incident Commanders" of all major organizations (i.e. Licensee, Regulator, Local Authority, RCMP, Fire, etc.) involved in the incident in order to coordinate an effective response while at the same time carrying out their own jurisdictional responsibilities. The UC links the organizations responding to the incident and provides a forum for these entities to make consensus decisions. As is the Incident Command System, the Unified Command structure is responsible for overall management of the incident. The UC directs incident activities, including development and implementation of overall objectives and strategies, and approves ordering and releasing of resources. Members of the UC work together to develop a common set of incident objectives and strategies, share information, maximize the use of available resources, and enhance the efficiency of the individual response organizations.

2.4 Responsibilities of Personnel

One or more functions can be assigned to an individual depending on the complexity of the potential response to an emergency. ICS and EOC role descriptions are included in this section.

3.1 FIELD OVERVIEW

April 2008 The Liard area (west, east and south fields) have been temporarily deactivated according to National Energy Board (NEB) requirements. Access to these sites are limited. Roads that are winter access only, will not be maintained. The sites will be checked on a monthly basis by a third party contractor out of the Fort Liard, NT area.

ERP Map: See attached. West Liard The Liard West gas development project comprised of 2K-29, 2M-25 and M- 25, K-29A, 3K-29 and F-35 on three leases (K-29, F-25 and M-25), one water injection well (O-80), and two plants (K-29 and F-25 with cooling, separation and dehydration facilities. The project area is located across the Liard River from the hamlet of Fort Liard approximately 29 km along an all-season high grade road. A 37.2 km pipeline system connected the K-29 site to the Spectra Energy pipeline at Pointed Mountain (formerly Duke Energy at an abandoned and reclaimed BP plant site). The M-25 wells are linked to the F-25 plant site via a 1.4 km lateral. All wells, including the O-80 well, are currently suspended with downhold plugs. All pipelines have been currently deactiviated. All facilities have been currently deactivated. Wellheads are disconnected from the facilities East Liard There are three Bovie wells (C-74, F-66 and J-76) located approximately 27 km east of Fort Liard that are not tied in to any pipeline system. There are four Arrowhead non-producing wells (N-65, O-15, C-02, and B-41) Description of Field: located in the Arrowhead area approximately 50 km northeast of Fort Liard. These wells were tested from formations that contain from 0 to 2.0% H2S. South Liard The Liard South gas development project consisted of sweet gas with condensate produced from one well (F-36). There is also two suspended wells (0-35, N-01). There is a 26 km pipeline (Shiha Energy Transmission Ltd.) installed between the F-36 well and the EOG Resources (owned and operated) Maxhamish Compressor Station (d-36-I) in BC. The O-35 well site is located approximately 0.75 km SW of the F-36 well site and tied into the pipeline at the F-36 location. The F-36 well is located 17 km southeast of Fort Liard and approximately 10 km north of the NT/BC border. The N-01 well is located 2km north of the BC border and tied into the Shiha pipeline. The noted wells are accessible by helicopter but only during the winter period by vehicle on a temporary winter access road. The gathering system ties into the Spectra Energy – Gas Control at Fort St. John, B.C. (Gas Control is a Spectra Energy company based out of Vancouver: 1-800-665-8338).

3.5 LEVELS OF EMERGENCY and RESPONSE

Level 1 Emergency No effects outside company property. Control of hazardous substance completed or pending. No immediate threat to the public or company personnel. Definition Minimal environmental effects. Incident/spill handled by company personnel. Low potential to escalate. A stuffing box on a pumping oil well has cracked and oil is spraying off lease into an adjacent field; several workers have been knocked down by sour gas Example: after entering a metering shack and require hospitalization; a seal on a sour gas wellhead has failed and sour gas could jeopardize public safety; a rig hand has been severely injured by a joint of drill pipe falling off the pipe rack. The Incident Commander gathers key information; logs actions and notifies the following: Pipeline related incident: Immediate Supervisor Transportation Safety Board (TSB) NEB 24 Hour Incident Cellular Line Emergency Services, if applicable (RCMP, Ambulance) NWT Workers’ Compensation Board (if applicable) Government / Private agencies, as applicable Notification: Spill: Immediate Supervisor NWT/Nunavet 24 Hour Spill NEB 24 Hour Incident Cellular Line Government / Private agencies, as applicable All other incidents: Immediate Supervisor NEB 24 Hour Incident Cellular Line Government / Private agencies, as applicable Advise not essential personnel / visitors (i.e. Camp Cook, Inspectors) Evacuation: that evacuation may need to occur. Ignition: Put Ignition Team on standby. Air Quality Monitoring: Monitor air quality. Isolation: Not required at this stage of the incident.

Level 2 Emergency No immediate threat outside company property but potential exists to extend beyond property boundaries. Outside services and government agencies likely to be directly involved. Definition: Imminent control of hazardous substance probable. Some injury or threat to the public and company personnel. Moderate environmental effects A fire is burning in a compressor station near a major city and there is significant regional interest; an oil spill from a well extends beyond the lease Example: and is heading towards a small creek; an explosion at a battery has hospitalized several workers, but the hazard will shortly be under control. The Incident Commander gathers key information; logs actions and notifies the following: Pipeline related incident: Immediate Supervisor Transportation Safety Board (TSB) NEB 24 Hour Incident Cellular Line Emergency Services, if applicable (RCMP, Ambulance) NWT Workers’ Compensation Board (if applicable) Government / Private agencies, as applicable Notification: Spill: Immediate Supervisor NWT/Nunavet 24 Hour Spill NEB 24 Hour Incident Cellular Line Government / Private agencies, as applicable All other incidents: Immediate Supervisor NEB 24 Hour Incident Cellular Line Government / Private agencies, as applicable H2S 10 ppm – advise non essential personnel (i.e. Camp Cook, Inspectors), that evacuation is likely if the H2S levels increase to 15 ppm. Evacuation: H2S 15 ppm – advise non essential personnel (i.e. Camp Cook, Inspectors) to evacuate. Ignition: Put Ignition Team on standby. Air Quality Monitoring: Monitor / document air quality. Gate – advise gate security to roadblock the entrance to the lease or company road. Isolation: Helicopter / Crew Plane – advise pilots not to land on the lease due to a Level 2 Emergency.

4.3 Remote Operations

In preparing this emergency response plan, the company has taken into consideration, where applicable, the risk of operating in remote locations or locations where accessibility is limited (i.e. winter access only). Where local emergency service resources such as fire, police and ambulance services are not readily available, private emergency services (medical service companies or emergency link centres) have been included in this emergency response plan, as applicable.

4.4 Winter Air Travel

In Case of Emergency If you have crash landed, stay away from the plane until the engines have cooled and spilled gas has evaporated. Check injuries. Give first aid. Make the injured comfortable. Be careful moving people with injured backs and fractures. Get out of the wind and rain. Throw up a temporary shelter. If you need a fire, start it at once. In cold weather, make hot drinks. If you have an emergency radio, get it operating on schedule. Keep radio batteries warm. Have other signaling equipment handy. Determine you location by the best means available. Include this information in radio messages. Now RELAX! Take stock of everything around you and in your possession. After you have organized your thinking, organize the camp. Put one person in charge of all food and equipment. Prepare shelter. Collect all possible fuel, including oil from downed aircraft or other vehicle. In cold weather, drain before oil congeals. Look for a water supply. Prepare signals so that you will be recognized from the air. Start a log book. Include date and cause of accident, probable location, roster of personnel, inventory of food, water and equipment, weather conditions and other pertinent data. Stay with the airplane or vehicle unless you know where to go. If you travel, leave a note with your planned route. Stick to your plan so rescuers can locate you. KEEP CALM! As soon as it is known you are overdue, Armed Forces Search and Rescue Units and others will be looking for you. Your main purpose will be to stay alive and in good physical condition until search and rescue can get to you. Solve each problem as it arises. Do not be in a hurry, but keep busy with the tasks of survival. Never give up hope that you will be rescued. Be ready with all possible signals to attract searchers. Set to work providing yourself with your most immediate needs – protection from the elements, a shelter, heat, fire and water.

Ground to Air Signals The international S.O.S. letters, 20 to 30 feet high trampled in the snow in an open area, can be readily seen from the air. If available, fill letters with evergreen boughs for contrast with the snow.

Smoke by Day, Fire by Night Green boughs or grass on a hot fire produces white smoke, a good bare ground signal. Rubber from tires or plastic for black smoke works well when ground is snow covered. Release the air pressure from tires before cutting or burning. Rags soaked in oil from engine crank case burn with black smoke. Oil soaked rags should be prepared, ready to light three signal flares set in a 50 foot triangle. Light them with you hear or see an aircraft.

Emergency Response Plan Page 2 of 5 Section 04: Hazards Updated: January 1, 2011

Paramount Resources Hazards

Flares Fire as near vertical in the air as possible when search aircraft are headed in your direction. Do not waste flares when aircraft are flying away from you. Flares should be fired with caution. Do not hold burning flares directly over the head as shot residue can fall from the flare.

Sounds Three loud sounds of any kind attract attention – whistles; gun shots; beat on metal. Do everything possible to aid ground searchers to your location. Sound does not carry well through snow – if your entire party is in a snow shelter such as a cave or igloo, you may not hear searching aircraft. Keep someone on guard outside as a spotter. Build the spotter a windbreak but do not roof it over. Keep snow and frost off airplane surfaces to make a sharp contrast with the surroundings. Build your fire on a platform so it will not sink into the snow. A standing spruce tree near timber line burns readily even when green. Build a “bird nest” of quickly flammable material in the branches to ensure a quick start.

Signal Mirror A proven means or alerting rescue aircraft or ground searchers as to your position. Properly aimed, this signal cannot be mistaken or ignored by searching aircraft and search parties. Be ready with your signal mirror the instant you hear or see an aircraft. Signal mirrors are available commercially; however vehicle rear view mirrors or any highly polished reflective surface will work. All commercial signal mirrors include direction for use. With a little practice, the improvised signal mirror can be just as effective.

Ten Rules for Survival 1. You must help yourself. Do not depend on someone else to think and plan for you. In a survival situation, confidence in your abilities and your will to live can make the difference between life and death. 2. Always prepare yourself for a possible emergency whenever leaving camp and traveling beyond the normal lines of communication or roads of civilization. Protective clothing and emergency equipment left at home or in camp will not help you when needed in the bush. 3. Tell someone where and when you are going and when you expect to return. Make a trip plan. If you travel away from a downed aircraft or other vehicle, leave a message telling the time you left and the direction in when you were heading. 4. Never leave camp or travel alone. There should be at least two men per party whether hiking on sea, ice or land. The buddy system helps in the prevention and early treatment of frostbite. 5. Do not fight the environment. Conserve your energy. Go around obstacles, not over or through them. Wait out high winds and other adverse weather. Dress properly. Avoid snow blindness. Take advantage of all natural and ready resources. 6. Know basic first aid. You must be prepared to make decisions and take action that will sustain life – your own as well as others. 7. Know how to prepare a shelter. Snow is an excellent insulator. Learn how to use it for protection. 8. Obtain water. You can live for days without food as long as you have water. Do not eat snow. Eating snow cools the body inner core temperature, invites overall cooling of the body and pre-disposes hypothermia. Although snow and ice are excellent sources of water, they should be melted and consumed warm. 9. Conserve heat. Your body is continually producing and losing heat. You will freeze only if the air is carrying away more heat than your body can generate. Exercise generates heat but overexerting leads to perspiration and loss of heat. If food is available, eating will add fuel to the fire and generate body heat. If you are wearing protective clothing, you will not freeze. 10. Use your head. Take time to think, plan and organize. Analyze the weather, the terrain, the energy you have available and all possible resources. Then plan the best possible course of action.

Hydrogen Sulphide (H2S)

Characteristics and Dangers of H2S Hydrogen sulphide is a naturally occurring colourless, flammable, toxic gas, which is slightly heavier than air. Found in decaying organic matter, natural oil and gas, silos, sewers; Found as a gas at temperatures above - o 60 C; Colourless; Flammable - burns to form SO2 ; Extremely toxic. At very low concentrations H2S may give off a “rotten egg” smell, but at higher concentrations or with prolonged exposure it deadens the sense of smell. Concentrations of H2S are measured in parts per million (ppm). Therefore 1.0 ppm of H2S means that there is a ratio of one part of H2S to one million parts of air. The concentration of H2S that is considered to be Immediately Dangerous to Life and Health is 100 ppm. Will tend to disperse more slowly in sheltered or calm or low lying areas. At lower concentrations (20-50 ppm) irritates mucous membranes (eyes, throat, lungs), causes headache, dizziness, nausea, may cause pulmonary edema (fluid in the lungs) upon prolonged exposure. High concentrations (500-1000 ppm) causes paralysis of the respiratory centre in the brain - breathing stops, suffocation occurs. This gas is dangerous because it kills the sense of smell very quickly and one is not aware of the level of concentration that is present. Industry practice is to wear breathing apparatus any time a risk of exposure exists. Good work practices should aim for zero exposure to H2S. Anyone knocked down by H2S must be examined by a doctor as soon as possible. Pulmonary edema (i.e. fluid in the lungs) can develop after H2S exposure.

ALBERTA - Worker Exposure Limits Concentration ((ppm) Effects 0.2 - 0.3 ppm Detectable by odour. 1 ppm May cause stress or health symptoms in sensitive individuals. 10 ppm 8-hour occupational exposure limit (Alberta, Saskatchewan, Federal and Ceiling for B.C.) Over 10 ppm, Protective Equipment is Necessary 15 ppm 15-minute occupational exposure limit (Federal and Ceiling for Alberta, Saskatchewan) 100 ppm Deadens sense of smell in 3 to 15 minutes, may burn eyes and throat. 200 ppm Rapidly deadens sense of smell, burns eyes and throat. 500 ppm Destroys sense of reasoning and balance, causes respiratory disturbances in 2 to 15 minutes, and needs prompt artificial resuscitation. 700 ppm Leads to rapid loss of consciousness, stops breathing and leads to death if not rescued promptly, requires immediate artificial resuscitation. 1 000 ppm Causes immediate loss of consciousness, chances of recovery very poor.

BRITISH COLUMBIA - General Health Effects of H2S Concentration (ppm) Effects 0.01 – 0.03 Odour threshold Moderate to strong offensive odour may create nausea, tearing of the eyes, 1 - 5 headaches or loss of sleep upon prolonged exposure-effects are moderate. 10 Ceiling Limit (B.C. WCB) Slight eye and lung irritation – may cause eye damage after several days of 20 – 50 exposure; may cause digestive upset and loss of appetite. 100 Eye and lung irritation 150 Kills sense of smell; severe eye and lung irritation Serious damage to eyes within 30 minutes; severe lung irritation; unconsciousness 500 and death within 4 to 8 hours. 1000 Breathing stops within one or two breaths.

Sulphur Dioxide (SO2)

Characteristics and Dangers of S02 When sour gas is ignited, a chemical reaction occurs, which converts the H2S into Sulphur Dioxide (S02). Sulphur Dioxide is a colourless, non-flammable, non-explosive gas. It has a pungent odour such as a burning match. The heat generated by the combustion of the gases causes S02 to rise high into the atmosphere. As a result, S02 ground level concentrations are significantly lowered. This is a choking gas, unlike H2S, and one wants to move to an area where the discomfort is not experienced. Found as a gas at temperatures above -10oC Highly irritating - dissolves to form sulphuric acid At lower concentrations irritates the eyes, nose and throat, causes difficulty in breathing and shortness of breath Causes pulmonary edema at high concentrations - may be fatal Effects on heavy smokers are more severe. The heat generated by the combustion of the gases causes S02 to rise high into the atmosphere. As a result, S02 ground level concentrations are significantly lowered.

ALBERTA - Worker Exposure Limit Concentration Effects (ppm) 2 8-hour occupational exposure limit (Alberta, Saskatchewan). 3 – 5 Begin to smell gas. 5 15-minute occupational exposure limit (Alberta). 6 – 50 Exposure for 5 to 15 minutes irritates the eyes and may irritate the respiratory system such as choking and coughing, possible nosebleed under extended exposure. Over 100 Immediately dangerous to life, immediate feeling of suffocation.

BRITISH COLUMBIA - General Health Effects of S02 Concentration Effects (ppm) 0.13 24 hour evacuation level (Ministry of Environment Level B criteria) 0.34 One hour average evacuation level (Ministry of Environment Level B criteria) 2 Eight hour Occupational Exposure Limit (B.C. WCB) 3 – 5 Odour Threshold 5 15 minute Occupational Exposure Limit (B.C. WCB) 8 – 12 Throat irritation, coughing, constriction in chest, tearing and smarting of the eyes 10 – 50 Exposure 5-15 minutes: increased irritation of the eyes, nose, throat, choking, coughing, and in some cases, wheezing as a sign of narrowing of the airways (which increases the resistance of the air-flow) 150 Short-term endurance lost due to severe dye irritation and because of the effects on the membranes of the nose, throat and lungs 500 Highly dangerous after an exposure of 30 to 60 minutes 1000 - 2000 May be fatal with continued exposure Adapted from Canada Safety Council Data Sheet “Sulphur Dioxide”, No. B-4.

Air Quality Monitoring Checklist Paramount Resources Northwest Territories Jurisdiction

SOURCE OF PERSONNEL Well site personnel, field production personnel Oil/Gas Safety Company Oil/Gas Operators in the Area

ROLE Air quality monitoring is used for tracking and recording the presence and concentrations of H2S during a sour gas release and SO2 following the ignition of the release or the presence and lower explosive limit (LEL) levels of HVP product following a release. Air quality monitoring equipment is used to: track the plume; determine if ignition concentration criteria are met; determine whether evacuation and/or sheltering concentration criteria have been met; assist in determining when the emergency status can be downgraded; determine roadblock locations, and determine concentrations in areas being evacuated to ensure that evacuation is safe. The type of air monitoring units and the number of monitors required are based on site-specific information, including: access and egress points; population density and proximity to urban density developments, and local conditions. Responders collect, document and report air quality levels on and off the lease to the Incident Commander and government agencies throughout a response.

PREPAREDNESS PREPAREDNESS FOR ALL OPERATIONS Ensure air quality monitoring equipment (H2S / LEL / 02) is calibrated, tested and in the specified location. Ensure all personnel know how to operate the equipment. Ensure spare parts and extra batteries are available for the equipment.

RESPONSE ALL OPERATIONS Where does air quality monitoring occur? - Downwind, with priority being directed to the nearest un-evacuated area where people may be present. H2S / S02 Detection Record Form - document results and report results to Operations Section Chief. Air Quality Results – report to Operations Section Chief who reports results to Incident Commander, Company EOC, Safety Officer and the NEB. UNMANNED / MANNED PRODUCTION OPERATION The operator is notified of a release by an alarm or by a reported odour The operator must investigate the source of the release and send out air quality monitoring units upon confirmation of the release location.

STATUS REPORTS / RESOURCES / DOCUMENTATION Status Reports - provide verbally or in writing to the Incident Commander. Resources - ensure all required resources (equipment/personnel) are requested and received. Documentation - complete required logs, reports or forms and submit to Incident Commander and/or Immediate Supervisor.

RECOVERY Air Quality Monitoring Team - following a release, mobilize an Air Quality Monitoring Team to monitor the air quality of buildings within the EPZ/hazard area for H2S/S02 pockets. Document - This must be accomplished and documented (H2S / S02 Detection Record Form) prior to allowing the return of occupants into the buildings. H2S/S02 Found - if H2S/S02 is found, ventilate the building until the monitoring levels are at zero. Coordinate - this process with the regulators, environment, health an the local authority (if residents impacted). Equipment/Emergency Pack - ensure all equipment is cleaned, serviced, re-calibrated and repaired (if required) and replenished immediately following the incident.

Paramount Resources Bomb Threat Checklist

Acknowledgement: RCMP / Canada Post

SOURCE OF PERSONNEL Personnel familiar with the lease site, plant or office.

ROLE A bomb threat/suspicious package may be received at the corporate, field office or camp. A bomb threat may be received by telephone, mail, courier or email and should be taken seriously. Explosive devices may be found in buildings and areas that are easily accessible. Detailed, credible warning, indicate that the threat is very likely genuine. Non-specific threats (given by a drunk, giggler, incoherent person) may not involve an actual explosive device but should not be disregarded. Lead agency – the police. Company personnel will be required to search a building or lease for suspicious devices as they are most familiar with the space.

PREPAREDNESS Mail Room - ensure room is not accessible by the general public. Reception Area - area should be staffed during business hours and not accessible to the public after hours. Canada Post Poster - post in the mail room and reception area. Bomb Threat/Suspicious Package Form - provide to personnel in the mail room, reception, administrative areas, human resources and others as required. Threats - document and report any threat to the police – no matter how minor it may seem. Lease Sites / Plants / Pipelines - if there have been incidents reported in your operating area, discuss situations at tail-gate and/or safety meetings and be on the look-out for suspicious activity and report immediately to the police.

RESPONSE Bomb Threat Against the Corporate or Field Office Notify Immediate Supervisor Immediate supervisor should arrange for immediate coverage of the reception area, while the person who received the threat is interviewed by the police and company personnel. Notify police While the police are enroute, complete the Bomb Threat/Suspicious Package Form (see attached). Notify Corporate Compliance Company personnel and the police will determine if the threat should be taken seriously and if the building will need to be evacuated and searched. Only conduct a search if confident that the information received is reliable and if it is safe to proceed. Unlock desk drawers and cabinets for the search crew and identify any strange or unfamiliar objects. Take your personal property such as briefcase, purse and lunch container with you. Bomb Threat Against a Plant / Facility Evacuate the plant/facility and complete a head count at the muster area. Notify Immediate Supervisor (and follow chain of command – Lead Operator, Foreman, Superintendent, Operations Manager, etc.) Notify police While the police are enroute, complete the Bomb Threat/Suspicious Package Form (see attached).

Emergency Response Plan Page 1 of 3 Section 06: Response Specific Procedures Updated: January 1, 2011

Paramount Resources Bomb Threat Checklist

Bomb Search Guidelines Do not use radios or cell phones – they may trigger the device. Designate a search pattern and establish a hot zone for the affected area. Do not touch anything - report any suspect objects. Devices may be concealed or disguised. Always conduct a thorough search of the area before allowing anyone to re-enter the area. Search the perimeter - if forced entry has been gained - this may give you a clue as to the whereabouts of the device. Office Building - personnel should search their own immediate area as they are familiar with the area and will be able to pick out things that where not there before. Unlock drawers, cabinets, etc. for the search crew and identify any strange or unfamiliar objects. Lease / Plant: - personnel should search the lease/plant that they are familiar with as they will be able to pick out things that where not there before. If a Device or Suspicious Package is Found Do not try to remove or neutralize the device, rely on the use of the police experts. Do not assume that this is the only one. Evacuate - to a safe area. Notify your supervisor immediately or the police representative on site. Assess – do a head count; determine severity; consider other hazards. Implement the ERP and declare a Level 3 Emergency. Shut down operations (corporate/field), evacuate and isolate the area and advise immediate neighbours (residents/businesses). The police may advise to put fire, ambulance services, and oil/gas fire services on standby. If time permits, look for other packages, minimize damage from the explosion by removing sources of combustion (i.e. isolate depressurize well site processes, etc), open windows (if applicable) and doors, and gather available fire fighting equipment and first aid equipment.

STATUS REPORTS / RESOURCES / DOCUMENTATION Status Reports - provide verbally or in writing to the Incident Commander and your Immediate Supervisor. Resources - ensure all required resources (equipment/personnel) are requested and received. Documentation - complete required logs, reports or forms and submit to Incident Commander and your Immediate Supervisor.

RECOVERY Public Safety Measures Mobilize an assessment team to determine if it is safe for occupants to return to the area. Public Information Instructions and key messages to occupants are developed and should be provided to the occupants prior to returning to their homes/businesses (if the threat involved evacuating residents). The Public Information Officer must approve the instructions / key messages. Notification If the threat involved evacuating residents surrounding the lease/plant, notify the local authority, occupants, regional health authority and other applicable agencies that the incident has ended. Notify all response personnel and advise that the incident has ended. Notify all occupants surrounding the lease/plant within 24 to 72 hours following their settlement back into their residence/building to determine if they have any outstanding concerns or questions. Transportation Transportation is available for returning evacuees (if required). Equipment/Emergency Pack - ensure all equipment is cleaned, serviced, re-calibrated and repaired (if required) and replenished immediately following the incident.

SOURCE OF PERSONNEL Well site personnel Company field personnel Oil/Gas Safety Company Oil/Gas Operators in the Area Alternatives, based on availability and hazard: local authority personnel, police, search and rescue groups, Alberta Sustainable Resource Development personnel.

ROLE Responders search for transients, recreational users, residents and other area users and notify them to evacuate or assist them in evacuating the hazard area. Working with the public in an emergency situation will bring about various emotions and reactions. The public will obviously be afraid, nervous, and angry and want their questions answered. When working with the public, personnel should: o Always identify themselves and remain calm; o Advise of the situation (never speculate as to what occurred or caused the incident) and the evacuation procedures; o Ask how long it will take them to leave the area (i.e. 15 minutes, etc.); o Advise occupants to be prepared to be away from their home from several hours to several days. Personnel are not to physically remove anyone from their home/property if they are conscious and they choose not to leave. Advise the Operations Section Chief or Incident Commander immediately.

PREPAREDNESS Preparedness For All Operations Ensure air quality monitoring equipment is calibrated, tested and in the specified location. Ensure all personnel know how to operate the equipment. Ensure spare parts and extra batteries are available for the equipment. Drilling And/Or Completion, Testing, Workover Operations Vehicles - ensure vehicles are fuelled, parked in a location that faces towards the exit from the lease, and during winter months, cleared of snow/ice and plugged in. Start the vehicle during cold spells. Vehicle Keys - should remain in the unlocked vehicle (unless theft is a concern, then the keys must be located in an accessible location known by all personnel). 24 Hours Prior to Sour Operations – determine the occupants within the hazard area (i.e. drilling, construction, environmental personnel, etc.). Flag Roadblock Locations - ensure flags have not been removed or knocked down and confirm radio contact between the roadblock location and the Incident Command Post. Changes - provide any changes to Emergency Management for ERP updates. Unmanned / Manned Production Operations Evacuation Vehicles - ensure vehicles are fuelled, parked in a location that faces towards the exit, and during winter months, cleared of snow/ice and plugged in. Start the vehicle during cold spells. Vehicle Keys - should remain in the unlocked vehicle (unless theft is a concern, then the keys must be located in an accessible location known by all personnel). Changes - provide any changes to Emergency Management for ERP updates.

Evacuation Checklist Paramount Resources Northwest Territories Jurisdiction

RESPONSE All Operations Primary Public Protection - evacuation is the primary public protection measure during a release of sour gas if the public can be safely removed from the area. Evacuation Methods - may include all or a combination of the following: o Radio contact with occupants and advising them to evacuate o Physically driving to their location and advising them to evacuate o Assisting them to evacuate the area Where does evacuation begin? – nearest downwind occupant and then expands outward Evacuation Tracking Log - document results and report results to Operations Section Chief. Evacuation Results – report to Operations Section Chief who reports results to: o Incident Commander Liaison Officer (i.e. NEB, other regulatory agencies) Company EOC Public Information Officer (i.e. Public via Media Release) Safety Officer o Responders (rovers, roadblocks, etc.) Resources - ensure all required resources (equipment/personnel) are requested and received. Equipment - ensure all equipment is cleaned, serviced, re-calibrated and repaired (if required) and replenished immediately following the incident. Evacuation Evacuation begins with the nearest downwind occupant and expands outward. A shift in wind direction will require immediate re-evaluation of the hazard area and the need for additional evacuation and/or sheltering. It may require immediate ignition of the well if ignition criteria are met. If the sour gas release has been ignited, continue to monitor for H2S from incomplete combustion, as well as SO2. Advise the Operations Section Chief or Incident Commander immediately of H2S/SO2 /LEL detection. Evacuation, Level 1 Emergency - Advise not essential personnel / visitors (i.e. Camp Cook, Inspectors) that evacuation may need to occur. Evacuation, Level 2 Emergency - Advise non essential personnel (i.e. Camp Cook, Inspectors), that evacuation is likely if the H2S levels increase to 15 ppm. H2S 15 ppm – advise non essential personnel (i.e. Camp Cook, Inspectors) to evacuate. Evacuation, Level 3 Emergency - Evacuate non-essential personnel / visitors (i.e. Camp Cook, Inspectors). Helicopter Evacuation Helicopter evacuation may be limited due to response time, air quality conditions, light and weather conditions. Mobilize the helicopter as soon as possible and obtain/provide radio frequencies, verify helispots and mark on the ERP map and ensure the helicopter pilot maintains communication with the Operations Chief. Advise occupants to locate to the helispots and provide the following safety procedures: o Remain 50 metres from the helicopter until the pilot indicates that it is safe to approach. o Approach the helicopter from the front (never the rear or sides) with your head lowered and keeping your eye on the helicopter pilot. Once inside the aircraft follow the pilot’s safety instructions. Prolonged Evacuation If evacuees are required to be away from their homes for an extended period of time, the company will: Provide a copy of the Evacuee Expense Form and instructions on how to claim for incurred expenses. Provide assistance in arranging their food and temporary accommodation. Provide area security (if required).

Transportation Transportation is available for returning evacuees (if required) Notices of Evacuation Posters Ensure the removal of any posters that have been posted on vacant vehicles, buildings. Equipment/Emergency Pack Ensure all equipment is cleaned, serviced, re-calibrated and repaired (if required) and replenished immediately following the incident.

Emergency Response Plan Page 3 of 7 Section 06: Response Specific Procedures Updated: January 1, 2011

Evacuation Checklist Paramount Resources Northwest Territories Jurisdiction

Evacuation and/or Sheltering Within the EPZ ERCB Directive 071, Section 5.2.2 4) The licensee must address how evacuation from and/or sheltering within the response zones will be accomplished during an incident, including how transients, such as hunters, trappers, recreational users, and nonresident landowners, will be located and evacuated.

5) Special procedures may be required for evacuating public facilities. If large numbers of people are involved, the licensee must address assistance with transportation (e.g., providing school buses) or changes in the normal notification procedures.

Sheltering indoors is a viable public protection measure in circumstances when: there is insufficient time or warning to safely evacuate the public that may be at risk, residents are waiting for evacuation assistance, the release will be of limited size and/or duration, the location of a release has not been identified, or the public would be at higher risk if evacuated.

6) The licensee must include shelter-in-place instructions in its public information package and ERP.

Public Protection Measures for an H2S Release ERCB Directive 071, Section 14.3.3 Evacuation is the primary public protection measure during a release of sour gas if the public can be safely removed from the area. Evacuation begins in the IIZ and expands outward into the PAZ downwind of the release so that members of the public are not exposed to H2S.

8) The licensee must continuously assess and act on the need to expand the evacuation area based on the monitored levels of H2S (Appendix 6) and as dictated by the specifics of the incident itself. In the absence of monitored readings, responders should advise residents to shelter in place.

A licensee can advise residents to evacuate; however, the local authority or RHA has to declare a state of local emergency before mandatory evacuation can occur. It is an ERCB requirement for a licensee to advise residents to evacuate if the need arises. Typically, residents within the EPZ but outside of the PAZ will be contacted and advised to shelter in place pending further instructions from the licensee and/or the local authority, depending on existing arrangements. A shift in wind direction will require immediate reevaluation of the PAZ and the need for additional evacuation and/or sheltering. It may require immediate ignition of the well if ignition criteria are met. If the sour gas release has been ignited, the licensee should continue to monitor response zones for H2S from incomplete combustion, as well as SO2.

Evacuation and/or Sheltering Indoors ERCB Directive 071, Section 14.3.2 When safe to do so, evacuation should take place before a release of sour gas or HVP product has the potential to affect people in proximity to the release or as soon as possible to avoid any exposure to the hazard. If evacuation is not possible, then sheltering-in-place can be used to protect members of the public under certain conditions. Depending on the volume, size, duration, or meteorological conditions, sheltering in place may not be a viable public protection measure within the IIZ during an H2S release. In such a situation, the public safety aspects of sheltering in place will have to be continuously re-evaluated during the incident and assisted evacuation may be necessary to protect public safety.

Notification and Evacuation Outside the EPZ ERCB Directive 071, Section 14.3.5 In the unlikely event that public protection measures are required beyond the EPZ, they will be conducted in accordance with the licensee’s arrangement with the local authority. The Petroleum Industry Incident Support Plan13 will also be activated by the government for level-2 and level-3 emergencies to provide support to the incident response. Notification mechanisms outlined in the MEP response framework may be used by the local authority to notify residents if public protection measures are required outside the EPZ. The notification mechanisms will be based on monitored air quality and other situations that might arise during the emergency. Evacuation of the area outside the EPZ is coordinated through the licensee’s ERP and the response framework in the local authority’s MEP. The RHAs also have a role in evacuation in accordance with the Alberta Public Health Act, Section 52.2.

SOURCE OF PERSONNEL Wellsite Supervisor / Rig Manager Foreman / Lead Operator

ROLE / AUTHORITY Ignition of a release may be required in an emergency situation as a result from drilling, completions, workover, or servicing a well, a pipeline break or when the igniter on a flare stack fails. The decision making authority to ignite the release will be coordinated through the Corporate Operating Officer, President and the NEB.

PREPAREDNESS At the first sign of a well or facility control problem, assemble appropriate ignition equipment and personnel (if possible, two teams of two person teams – one primary, one secondary). Determine the hazard perimeter and escape routes. Establish wind direction and speed. Brief personnel and ensure that they are familiar with ignition procedures. Select a firing location that provides maximum protection to the Ignition personnel and with good access and escape routes. Ensure air quality monitoring for H2S and SO2 emissions is monitored continuously. Be aware of any grassy and treed areas which might be susceptible to burning. All members of the Ignition Team must wear personal protective equipment. One member of the team checks the atmosphere for explosive gases with a combustible gas indicator. The other member of the team is responsible for lighting the release. Each person must remain in visual contact with each other at all times. Training The NEB does not require personnel to be certified in sour well ignition to ignite a well, however, the NEB does recommend that the ignition team have training in this area.

IGNITING A WELL / PIPELINE Ensure all persons have been evacuated from area. Establish wind direction and speed. Approach the gas flow from upwind ensuring that an explosive mixture does not exist in the teams immediate area. Ignite the release from the maximum range of the flare gun (45-60 metres) - shells are shot towards the gas release in such a manner that ignition will occur at the furthest outside edge of the gas plume. Repeat above steps until ignition is achieved. Monitor the area for gases prior to and after removing breathing apparatus. If possible, remain on standby at the ignition site to re-ignite the release, if required.

Emergency Response Plan Page 1 of 2 Section 06: Response Specific Procedures Updated: January 1, 2011

Ignition Checklist Paramount Resources Northwest Territories Jurisdiction

IGNITING A FLARE STACK Reference: Company Task Comptency Manual, Task 01.08 Ensure all persons have been evacuated from area. Establish wind direction and speed. Pilot Igniter – check that there is no gas accumulation around the base of the stack. Close the bleed off at the bottom of the stack when lighting the flame. When using a flare pistol to light a flare pit, be aware of any grassy areas which might be susceptible to burning. The operational use of flare guns for the ignition of flare stacks, except during an emergency situation is prohibited by ERCB IL 85-03. Fire the flare pistol vertically when attempting to ignite a stack. It is intended to burn out before returning to the surface. Cartridges which misfire may detonate up to 60 minutes later. Use EXTREME CAUTION. Dispose of in a safe manner. Make sure vessels, piping and flare stack are purged before lighting flare. When you use a flare stack ignitor: o Open the valves to the ignitor (ball and needle valves). o Open the valves to the flare stack. o Ensure power switch is “ON”. o Wait approximately one minute for gas to reach top of flare stack. o Press Pilot #1 ignition button. o Press Pilot #2 ignition button. o Ensure flare is lit. o Close all valves in the same order as opening them to reduce any trapped pressure in between valves. o Ensure there is no flammable material (oil, condensate), in the flare pit.

STATUS REPORTS / RESOURCES / EQUIPMENT / DOCUMENTATION Status Reports - provide to Incident Commander. Resources - ensure all required resources (equipment/personnel) are requested and received. Equipment - ensure all equipment is cleaned, serviced, re-calibrated and repaired (if required) and replenished immediately following the incident. Documentation - complete required logs, reports or forms and submit to Incident Commander.

RECOVERY Public Safety Measures - Mobilize an assessment team to determine if it is safe for occupants to return to the area. Prior to occupants returning to residences/buildings, the Air Quality Monitoring Team must ensure all buildings within the EPZ are ventilated and air quality is monitored for H2S/S02 pockets. Report any levels to the Operations Section Chief immediately. Transportation - Transportation is available for returning evacuees (if required).

Injury / Fatality Checklist Paramount Resources Northwest Territories Jurisdiction

SOURCE OF PERSONNEL First Person on the Scene

ROLE First Aider’s Role: recognize the emergency, call emergency medical services, act according to your skills, knowledge and comfort level. The first step in dealing with an emergency is to recognize it: o A medical emergency is an illness or condition that needs immediate medical attention (i.e. a heart attack). o An injury is some kind of damage to the body caused by an external force (i.e. broken bones, wounds, fall). Injuries are not accidents. Injuries are predictable and preventable. Planning for safety is the best way to prevent injuries.

PREPAREDNESS Equipment – first aid equipment is accessible and personnel are familiar with how to operate it. AED (Automated External Defibrillator) - is a portable electronic device that automatically diagnoses the potentially life threatening cardiac arrhythmias. o Calgary Corporate Office has access to two (2) AED’s through Brookfield Management at the Security Control Room. Call Security if the equipment is required. o Field Offices / Plants – personnel should be trained to use this equipment. First Aid Certification - ensure all personnel have up-to-date first aid. Location - ensure all personnel are familiar with the area they are working in and how to direct emergency services personnel into the area.

RESPONSE SITE Establish Command Evacuate Site – if applicable, to a safe area, upwind or higher ground Sound Alarm - call for help, sound horn Assess - do a head count; determine severity; consider other hazards Protect – if applicable, don PPE Backup - call for backup Shut-In – if applicable, source if safe and possible Remove – if applicable, ignition sources Shut-Off – if applicable, machinery and/or equipment First Aid - commence first aid procedures Call EMS - ask a “buddy” to contact EMS for you; if you are alone, call first and then return to provide First Aid First Aid - commence first aid procedures Notify - once the person has been attended to, contact the person's Immediate Supervisor and contact Corporate Compliance.

RESPONSE CORPORATE OFFICE Call EMS - ask a “buddy” to contact EMS for you; if you are alone, call first and then return to provide First Aid First Aid - commence first aid procedures Contact Reception (“0”) - ask another “buddy” to contact Reception and advise that 911 services have been called Building Security - Reception will contact Building Security and advise of the situation. Building Security will lock off the service elevators and provide escort services to EMS. Notify - once the person has been attended to, contact the person's Immediate Supervisor and contact Corporate Compliance.

Injury / Fatality Checklist Paramount Resources Northwest Territories Jurisdiction

FIRST AID EMERGENCY ACTION PRINCIPLES Survey the Scene - check for danger – hazardous release, no oxygen – don personal protective equipment before attempting rescue. Check Casualty for Unresponsiveness - if the person does not respond, call EMS Do a Primary Survey - Airway, Breathing, Circulation and care for life-threatening problems. Do a Secondary Survey – when appropriate, and care for additional problems. Keep Monitoring Casualty’s Condition - for life threatening problems while waiting for Ambulance Services to arrive. Help Casualty Rest - in the most comfortable position and give reassurance. Calling EMS – provide very clear directions as to where you are located (i.e. nearest urban centre, direction of the field, driving directions).

Paramount Resources Shelter-In-Place Checklist

SOURCE OF PERSONNEL Company field personnel, safety companies, oil/gas operations in the area and public notification group.

ROLE Advise occupants of the EPZ to shelter-in-place. (may occur in person or by phone). Shelter-In-Place is the practice of going or remaining indoors during a sudden outdoor release of a hazardous substance. Shelter-In-Place has been demonstrated to be the most effective response during the first few hours of a substance release. Sheltering indoors creates a buffer between you and any toxic hazard that may be in the outside air. The goal of Shelter-In-Place is to reduce the movement of air into and out of the building until the hazard has passed. It is based on using a building that is constructed tightly enough to withstand typical Canadian winter weather conditions. An event such as a fire, motor vehicle accident, train derailment, industrial incident, or a natural disaster may cause a substance release. As a result, emergency responders may request that you Shelter-In-Place. This option is not available for recreational users or transients.

SHELTER-IN-PLACE INSTRUCTIONS Immediately gather everyone indoors and stay there Close and lock all windows and outside doors • If convenient, tape the gaps around the exterior door frames Extinguish indoor wood burning fires • If possible, close flue dampers Turn off appliances or equipment that either: • Blow out inside air, such as Bathroom and kitchen fans Built-in vacuum systems • Sucks in outside air, such as: Gas stoves Fireplaces Clothes dryers Air conditioners Turn down thermostats by about 5oC to minimize on-time of furnaces Leave open all inside doors Avoid using the telephone, except for emergencies, so that you can be contacted by company emergency response personnel • Notify company emergency response personnel if you have contacted fire, police or ambulance so that we can coordinate our response Stay tuned to local radio and television for possible information updates Even if you see people outside do not leave until told to do so If you are unable to follow these instructions, please notify company emergency response personnel After the hazardous substance has passed through the area you will receive an "all-clear" message. You may also receive, if required, instructions to: • Ventilate your building by opening all windows and doors; turning on fans and turning up thermostats. • Once the building is completely ventilated return all equipment to normal.

1.0 SOURCE OF PERSONNEL Company field personnel Safety companies Oil/gas operators in the area – mutual aid

2.0 ROLE When responding to a spill, hazardous release, pressure vessel release or spill, or a storage tank release or spill, the following three priorities must be taken into consideration:

Safety Do not take any actions that may endanger yourself or others in the area. Keep in mind that crude oil spills may pose a fire hazard, particularly in hot weather. Always remove any sources of ignition and do not smoke in the spill area. Wear the appropriate personal protective equipment and clothing. Environmental Protection Take action which will reduce the impact of the spill on the environment. Try to keep the spill within the smallest area possible. Block liquids from flowing into ditches, creeks or other surface water bodies. Protection of Property Try to keep the spill from flowing off-lease.

3.0 PREPAREDNESS Equipment - ensure equipment is readily available and located in specified location(s). Training – all personnel receive ERP and ICS 100 training in person or via a self-study program. Tabletop exercises are held once a year and major exercises are held once every three years. All site supervisors are encouraged to run drills during their safety meetings. Mandatory spill response exercises are held through Western Canada Spill Services. Storage – the company will establish designated hazardous material storage and transfer areas that are ≥100m from any local high water mark, unless otherwise authorized in writing by the regulator and are not connected to water bodies by a steep grade. Secondary Containment - Designated hazardous material storage and transfer areas will have secondary containment (i.e., berms or doubled-walled tanks) and/or will be equipped with drip trays, spill pads and/or mats. Holding capacity of berms will be 110% capacity of the largest storage container. Hazardous material storage tanks with a capacity greater than 4000 L will have secondary containment. Designated hazardous material transfer areas will be equipped with drip trays, spill pads and/or mats. Signage - according to WHMIS and/or Transportation of Dangerous Goods (TDG) standards, signs will be posted at all designated hazardous material storage and transfer areas with the product name, TDG placard and signs warning of danger (e.g., no smoking, hydrogen sulphide, poisonous gas, etc.). Fuelling - operators will be stationed at both ends of the hose during fuelling unless the ends are visible and readily accessible by one operator. Maintenance of immobile equipment - may be required within 100 m of a local high water mark. In such circumstances, the company will adhere to the following measures to mitigate potential negative environmental impacts. Potential Spill Scenarios – include drilling fluid release; fuel transport vehicle rollover; anti-freeze, hydraulic fluid, oil, radiator fluid and other liquid phase chemical leaks/spills; solid phase chemical (e.g., dry bulk cement and additives; dry drilling fluid system materials and additives, etc.) spills, etc. Qualifications - to prevent and respond to these types of hazardous material releases, the company requires that contractors are qualified and prepared.

8.0 RECOMMENDED SPILL RESPONSE STEPS

Although no two spills are the same and the appropriate response is based on the characteristics and hazards associated with the spilled material, the following steps can be used as a general guideline:

STEP # 1 IDENTIFY Identify the spilled substance. Known Product - refer to the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) Unknown Product – if no markings on the container are evident, contact the nearest Field Office for further support and direction. Known Source - determine where the source of the spill is, and if safe to do so, attempt to stop the flow of material Unknown Source - continue to contain and control the situation until key personnel arrive onsite

STEP # 2 ASSESSMENT Conduct a hazard assessment and implement safety controls, if required (includes establishing a continuous monitoring program & documented site safety meetings).

STEP # 3 SECURE Secure the site and identify areas that are restricted to authorized personnel only, as well as identify escape routes and a muster point. Isolate - based on the obvious effects (bubbling, smell, discharge, etc.) or by the information provided (MSDS), ensure that the immediate area (safe distance) is cordoned off and the scene is undisturbed until appropriate regulatory authorities have conducted an investigation or given clearance to a controlled situation. Utilize a barrier or some other suitable obstruction around the affected area. Authorized Personnel - allow only authorized personnel access to the spill site – they must wear appropriate protective clothing and breathing apparatus.

STEP # 4 SOURCE Locate the source of the spill and try to stop any additional discharge. Obvious signs of the spill area include oil or salt water staining or pooling on the soil surface, stressed or dead vegetation and snow or melt-water discoloration. If the discharge can be safely and immediately stopped or controlled, then make the repairs and move on to containing the spill. If the discharge cannot be immediately stopped or controlled, then arrange for repairs to be made and start working on containing the spill in the meantime.

STEP # 5 CONTAINMENT Containment If safe to do so, attempt to contain the spill from causing further damage. Prevent the spill from spreading. Containment usually consists of building a berm or digging trenches around the spill. The containment must surround the entire spill area. Location / Size of Containment Area To contain a spill is to direct released material to the smallest manageable area possible and hold the material. Location and size of the containment area must be decided before the time of the event during contingency planning considering: safety of personnel; safety of the rig, camp, etc.; scope of the spill; the condition of the surface.

Emergency Response Plan Page 8 of 17 Section 06: Response Specific Procedures Updated: February 11, 2011

Area of Containment in m2 for Depth of Fluid Indicated 0.15 m Depth 0.30 m Depth 0.45 m Depth Volume (approximate) 1040 520 340 = 160 m3 2030 1040 700 = 320 m3 5200 2600 1700 = 760 m3 10400 5200 3500 = 1600 m3 20800 10400 7000 = 3200 m3 52000 2600 17300 = 7600 m3 104000 5200 34700 = 16000 m3

Building a Berm Since the spill will flow downstream, begin your berm on the down slope side of spill. Ideally the berm should consist of a material that liquid cannot easily penetrate, such as impervious clay. Build the berm by stripping the soil surrounding the spill area and using the soil as the berm material. The berm should be high enough that liquids in the spill area (including melt-water or rainwater) cannot overflow. Digging Trenches and Bellholes Trenches and bellholes are dug to intercept and collect liquids, which may have flowed on the surface or may have penetrated the soil. They provide a means of collecting and storing the liquid and make it easier to pump off the liquid. Trenches and bellholes could be dug surrounding the entire spill area so as to contain the spill. A trench and bellhole could be dug inside the of the down slope berm to capture and recover liquids. Trenches should be sloped to one end and bellholes excavated at the lowest points to allow fluids to accumulate and be removed. Feeder trenches could be excavated and tied into the containment trench if liquid has collected on different sections of the spill area. Containment of Spills on Snow Dykes Dykes can be used to contain fuel spills on snow. By compacting snow down slope from the spill, and mounding it to form a dyke, a barrier or berm is created thus helping to contain the spill. The use of plastic tarps may or may not be useful. To construct a dyke on land, consider the guideline provided below. Preparing the Surface Clean and smooth the tundra surface at least 15 metres (50 ft) wide by snow to both sides of the perimeter of the area to be dyked. Spray water into the cleared area, starting at the highest point, as a certain amount of water will migrate under the tundra toward the lower area. Allow water to freeze and re-water as required to transform the active layer into solid ice. Blade snow in thin, 3 cm to 8 cm (1-3”) layers over the area, utilizing the snow banks from both sides. Water the snow and blade and pack this water-saturated material over the area to obtain a proper seal across the rough tundra. The amount of water required to prepare the tundra surface will depend on the depth and on air voids present in the active layer. Time required will depend upon frost conditions. After the first section of the surface cover is completed, dyke construction can proceed. The ice surface inside the dyke should be scraped clean of snow if possible. Oil mixed with snow produces a mulch, which makes disposal difficult. Establish and stake perimeter or area to be dyked. Windrow snow approximately one metre high with cats and graders onto the staked dyke perimeter in the same fashion as snowplowing a road, utilizing snow from both sides of the dyke. Cats must use an angled blade for this type of work.

Emergency Response Plan Page 9 of 17 Section 06: Response Specific Procedures Updated: February 11, 2011

Spill / Release / Vessel Checklist Paramount Resources Northwest Territories Jurisdiction

Spray water onto the windrow at a rate of approximately 14 cubic metres (3000 gallons) per 200 metres of windrow. Level windrow with cat using a straight blade and pack snow with tracks, establishing the first layer or first 0.3 metres (1 ft) of dyke. Re-water the dyke and pack with cat tracks, water at approximately the same rate as before or until the snow packs well. Under-watering will cause the snow to stay loose. This may be corrected by adding more water. Over-watering will cause the cat tracks to sink into the mash snow. This may be corrected by dozing and mixing loose snow into the mash until the material will pack. For the second layer or second 0.3 metres (1 ft) of dyke, doze or grade 0.5 metres (1.5 ft) of snow onto the existing dyke and water at the same rate as before. Level top of dyke, re-water and pack with cat tracks. Steps 6 and 7 are to be carried on until the desired height has been reached. The final finishing of the dyke will be done by grader using a snow-wing to cut a 2:1 backslope, rolling surplus material to the top of the dyke where it will be leveled by the cat. A final spray of water over the top and the slopes of the dyke will consolidate the material and prevent wind erosion. Installing a Plastic Dyke Liner Cut V-shape slot, 30 cm deep and 15 cm wide, into ice with powersaws or ditch witch on the dozed inside of the dyke, as close to the base of the dyke as possible. Remove any loose ice or snow from the slot. Lay polythene over dyke making sure that the sheeting will fit into the V-slot and extend 30-45 cm beyond the slot. Install one 5x30 metre polythene sheet at a time. (Each sheet should cover a minimum of 3 metres with next sheet). Backfill the V-slot with water and loose snow, and freeze the liner into position. Cover the polythene liner with loose snow at a 4:1 slope to prevent wind damage. This is to be done very carefully and the operator should be assisted by a man on the ground to prevent damaging the liner. After the liner has been covered sufficiently, the backslope is to be sprayed lightly with water to consolidate the snow and thus prevent wind erosion. Containment of Spills on Ice Spills on ice are generally the easiest spills to contain due to the impermeable nature of ice. However, spills on ice present a safety hazard. If the spill has occurred on ice-covered water, thoroughly evaluate ice thickness prior to implementing containment procedures and obtain guidance from the Safety Specialist, Corporate Compliance Department (see Appendix 3 for contact information). Determining Ice Safety Identify an ice rescue team, ready equipment and position rescue team slightly upstream of an ice assessment team. Anchor a two-person ice assessment team with ropes and harnesses to shore. The ice assessment team will proceed from shore and drill one test hole in the ice to determine: Ice thickness Current velocity Water depth below ice Current direction (mark current direction of each hole on the ice surface with marker paint or ribbon) Cut a small block of ice at the first hole and remove. Evaluate the ice quality (e.g., blue ice, white ice, visible cracks, space between water and ice, etc.). Blue ice is pure ice in the form of large single crystals. It is blue owing to the scattering of light by the ice molecules; the purer the ice, the deeper the blue. White ice is ice with a white appearance caused by the occurrence of bubbles within the ice. The bubbles increase the scattering of all wavelengths of light in contrast to the appearance of bubble-free blue ice.

On blue ice, the first 1000 kg of weight require 14 cm of ice and each additional 1000 kg of weight requires an additional 4 cm. Therefore, 50 cm of ice can support 10,000 kg. Beyond this the standard is 16 cm of ice for 10,000 kg or 1.6 cm per 1,000 kg. Add 25 % to ice thickness charts for Saline waters. Be aware that white ice can only carry half the weight of blue ice. Furthermore, if water is between ice layers, load capacity can be based on the thickness of the top layer of ice only. Alternately, Gold’s Formula (Adam, 1978) can be used to approximate possible loading: P=Ah2

where: P = load in kilograms (short term, moving vehicle); A= constant (recommended 3.52) h= ice thickness in centimeters; and If safe to continue, the ice assessment team can proceed across the watercourse to assess the parameters outlined in the steps above. Note: As the assessment team moves away from the shore, it may be necessary to re-position anchors from shore to on-ice with the use of ice anchors. Following initial assessment of the ice across the watercourse, the team may move downstream (approximately 9 m) and drill test holes across the watercourse. At this point, be sure to stagger the holes from the first set in order to obtain a more accurate assessment. Note: At this time, the on-site safety supervisor may declare the weight bearing capacity sufficient to continue work without the use of safety lines and anchors. Workers who remain on the ice should wear personal flotation devices. Should ice be deemed safe, the following tips should be considered when working on ice. Use Ice Augers to periodically check ice thickness and ice quality. Do not take shortcuts, stay on specified routes. Travel at speeds ≤ 30 km/hr. Leave door ajar when traveling on ice for quick evacuation. Trenches For significant spills on ice, trenches can be cut into the ice surrounding and/or down slope of the spill such that fuel is allowed to pool in the trench (INAC, 2007). Burning Burning should only be considered if other approaches are not feasible, and is only to be undertaken with the permission of the INAC or lead agency (INAC, 2007). Containment of Spills on Land Dykes Dykes can be created using soil surrounding a spill on land. These dykes are constructed around the perimeter or down slope of the spilled fuel (INAC, 2007). See “Dykes” under “Containment of Spills on Snow” Trenches Trenches can be dug to contain spills. Shovels, pick axes or heavy equipment can be used depending on the state of the soil (e.g., compact, loose, frozen, thawed, etc.) and the size of trench required (INAC, 2007). Containment of Spills on Water Spills on water such as rivers, streams or lakes are the most serious types of spills as they are not easily contained. To contain a spill on water, a control point needs to be assigned. WCSS identifies control points in the Cooperative Oil Spill Contingency manuals. In most cases control points are access points for spill response equipment.

Emergency Response Plan Page 11 of 17 Section 06: Response Specific Procedures Updated: February 11, 2011

Spill / Release / Vessel Checklist Paramount Resources Northwest Territories Jurisdiction

The best location on the water body to deploy containment and recovery equipment is determined at the time of the response and may not be right at the designated control point. Booms Booms are commonly used to recover fuel floating on the surface of lakes or slow moving streams. They are released from the shore of a water body to create a circle around the spill. If the spill is away from the shoreline a boat will need to be used to reach the spill, then the boom can be set out. More then one boom may be used at once. Booms may also be used in streams and should be set out at an angle to the current. Booms are designed to float and have sorbent materials built into them to absorb fuels at the edge of the boom (INAC, 2007). Weirs Weirs can be used to contain spills in streams and to prevent further migration downstream. Plywood or other materials found on site can be placed into and across the width of the stream, such that water can still flow under the weir. Spilled fuel will float on the water surface and be contained at the foot of the weir (INAC, 2007). Barriers In some situations barriers made of netting or fence material can be installed across a stream, and sorbent materials placed at the base to absorb spilled fuel. Sorbents will need to be replaced as soon as they are saturated. Water will be allowed to flow through. This is very similar to the weir option discussed above. Note that in some cases, it may be appropriate to burn fuel or to let volatile fuels such as gasoline evaporate after containment on the water surface. This should only be undertaken in consultation with, and after approval from the INAC or lead agency Inspector (INAC, 2007).

STEP # 6 EVALUATE Determine the volume released, where the product was release (from source to area affected), the extent of the release, access to the site, what event or events led up to the identification of the release, the possible reason/cause of the release, and the impact to the land base and surrounding land uses. Once a spill has been contained, a detailed impact assessment will be conducted concurrent with planning for the clean-up and restoration. If the spill has affected, or has the potential to affect other land users (e.g., trappers, hunters, etc.), obtain guidance from the Regulatory and Community Affairs Advisor, Land Department. If the spill has occurred on land, obtain guidance from the Environmental Specialist, Corporate Compliance Department. If the spill has occurred in open water, obtain guidance from the Senior Hydrologist, Corporate Compliance Department (see Appendix 3 for contact information). The following subsections provide guidelines for assessing impacts to land users, the terrestrial environment and the aquatic environment. Land Users Identify land uses in areas affected by the spill. Determine if any of the following groups are affected by the spill: Hunters (e.g., known hunting area, easily accessible, prime game habitat, etc.). Trappers (e.g. trap lines, cabins, etc.) Dispositions (e.g. pipelines, utilities, roads, facilities, etc.) Assess the potential impacts on stakeholders affected by the spill [i.e., exposure to toxic substances, explosions/fires, contaminated water or other edibles (game, birds, fish, vegetation)], etc. Take action to prevent or minimize potential impacts to stakeholders.

Spill / Release / Vessel Checklist Paramount Resources Northwest Territories Jurisdiction

Terrestrial Environment Identify and mark the initial spill boundary using appropriate equipment, which may include: o Personal protective equipment (PPE) o Gas detection monitors o Compass / GPS o Measuring device (e.g., topofil, tape, chain) o Shovel o Quantabs or conductivity meter for produced water or emulsion spills o Clipboard and pens o Ribbon to mark spill perimeter o Hoe, drill or sampling equipment if sub-surface contamination is suspected o Camera Produce a sketch of the initial spill boundary and document with photographs (ensure no flammable vapours are present). On the sketch, identify any known or suspected sensitive areas (e.g. key wildlife habitat, surface water, groundwater, heritage resources, etc.) Identify terrain characteristics in the area of the spill. o Note any available natural features that can be used advantageously for containment and recovery options (e.g. slope, approaches, ditches, low areas). o Identify access routes into the spill area and equipment requirements to improve access. o Evaluate the area for stability and erosion potential. o Identify surface run-off patterns in the area and requirements to divert and control the flows from having a negative impact on the spill site. Evaluate soil types, characteristics and conditions. o Identify the types of soils that are affected by the spill. o Determine how prone to fluid penetration the soil is. o Evaluate erosion potential. o Identify moisture levels and location and movement of the water table. o Assess the potential of clean soils becoming contaminated during containment and recovery operations and determine soil-salvaging requirements. o Determine if there is a need to add a calcium amendment to a produced water spill to prevent soil dispersion. Determine the vegetation types on site and their general condition. o List the types of vegetation that are affected by the spill (e.g. tree species, etc.) o Evaluate the extent that the vegetation is covered with contaminants (totally saturated vs. fine spray). o Estimate the value of vegetation damaged (e.g. shelterbelts, merchantable timber). o Assess the erosion potential if vegetation is removed. o Consider the potential and effects of an uncontrolled fire if ignition occurs at the spill site. o Photograph the vegetation during the initial assessment and at intervals following containment and recovery operations to reassess and document the damage. Determine equipment resources that are required to clean-up the spill. o Electromagnetic survey for delineation o Auger rig or trac-hoe o Containment and recovery equipment o Equipment to transport containment and recovery equipment to the site o Equipment to improve or create access o Safety equipment (e.g. PPE, monitors, warning signs, barricades, fire fighting, First Aid, etc.) o Worker support equipment (e.g. shelter, washroom/wash-up facilities, food/drink, etc.).

Emergency Response Plan Page 13 of 17 Section 06: Response Specific Procedures Updated: February 11, 2011

Spill / Release / Vessel Checklist Paramount Resources Northwest Territories Jurisdiction

Aquatic Environment Visually assess the location and degree of impact. When open, flowing water is involved, air reconnaissance is most effective. Note the locations of any known or suspected sensitive areas (e.g. key habitat, surface water, groundwater, heritage resources, etc.). Others impacted by the spill include: fish, waterfowl and wildlife. Determine resources that are required to clean-up the spill. o Containment and recovery equipment o Equipment to transport containment and recovery equipment to the site o Safety equipment (e.g., PPE, monitors, warning signs, barricades, fire fighting, First Aid, etc.) o Worker support equipment (e.g., shelter, washroom/wash-up facilities, food/drink, etc.)

STEP # 7 NOTIFY Refer to “Reporting / Notification Guidelines above.

STEP # 8 RECOVERY Any free standing liquids should be removed as quickly as possible. Small amounts of liquid (< 20 litres) could be collected using absorbents. The saturated absorbents would have to be stored in a sealed drum or bin and disposed of at a waste handling facility. For larger amounts of liquid, a vacuum truck could be brought in or a small pump could be used to remove liquid from the trenches and bellholes. If storing the liquid on site, keep it in sealed barrels or tanks. Crude oil should be taken to a reclaiming facility for disposal. Produced water could be processed through a battery or deep well injected. Under the guidance of Paramount Resources’ Environmental Specialist in the Corporate Compliance Department, spills on land will be cleaned-up to meet NWT/NEB regulatory requirements. Under the guidance of Paramount Resources’ Senior Hydrologist in the Corporate Compliance Department, spills in water will be cleaned-up to meet criteria in applicable, current Canadian Environmental Quality Guidelines (CCME, 1999). Appropriate storage and disposal options for materials contaminated as a result of spills and subsequent containment and clean-up must meet NWT/NEB regulatory requirements – “waste management plan”.

STEP # 9 REHABITATION Based on the volume released, subsequent response and sampling programs can be developed through the Corporate Compliance Department.

Paramount Resources Post Incident Procedures

7.1 Post Incident Procedures

Post incident procedures may be lengthy and in some instances may be longer than the incident itself. The time period between the demobilization of the response and the implementation and completion of the recovery program may be from a few days to several weeks or months depending on the incident. Keeping the public and government informed of the post incident procedure process is critical to the success of returning to normal activities and rebuilding public confidence.

7.2 Response Demobilization

Air Quality Monitoring - Mobilize Assessment Team Following a release, mobilize an Air Quality Monitoring Team to monitor the air quality of buildings within the EPZ/hazard area for H2S/S02 pockets. This must be accomplished and documented (H2S / S02 Detection Record Form) prior to allowing the return of occupants into the buildings. If H2S/S02 is found, ventilate the building until the monitoring levels are at zero. Coordinate this process with the regulators, environment, health and the local authority (if residents impacted). Public Information Instructions and key messages to occupants should be developed and provided to the occupants prior to returning to their homes/businesses. The Public Information Officer must approve these instructions / key messages. Notification Notify to all responders, the public and all agencies involved in the response, that the incident has ended and document the same. Transportation Transportation is available for returning evacuees (if required). The Logistics Section Chief would coordinate transportation means and the Evacuation Group would assist returning evacuees. Equipment Ensure all equipment is cleaned, serviced, re-calibrated and repaired (if required) immediately following the incident. Ensure all equipment and supplies are replenished. Forms / Documentation / Written Report Forward all forms, logs to your immediate supervisor for the final written report. Ensure the removal of any Notices of Evacuation posters in the area. Forward all claim forms from evacuees and submit to the Finance / Administration Chief to process.

7.3 Response Debriefing Sessions

A response debriefing sessions should be completed with company responding personnel. The session should focus on: Cause of the emergency (if known) Communication linkages Equipment resources Did previously provided training support the incident response? What further training (if any) is required? Usefulness of the ERP / Any additions Prevention of a similar incident in the future Several sessions may be held and a third party facilitator may be utilized to coordinate and develop a report on the debriefing sessions.

Emergency Response Policy

When a serious incident occurs, it can be followed by a period of confusion and uncertainty. It is during these times that major decisions must be made. If personnel are not prepared to respond, they may be overwhelmed and unable to deal with the emergency adequately. Paramount Resources Emergency Response Policy is to ensure proper training, planning and preparation of its employees and contractors are in place to activate action plans and mobilize response teams and resources in a safe and effective manner, as well as, coordinate activities with regulatory agencies; thereby reducing the overall impact of the incident. In support of this policy, the following guidelines are identified:

1. All personnel, whether employee or contractor, who either supervise or conduct activities at the field level for Paramount Resources, are required to receive a copy of the Emergency Response Plan. 2. It is mandatory that all recipients of this Emergency Response Plan receive an orientation on their responsibilities in the event of an emergency situation and how to properly use and find information within the plan. This must be confirmed with one signing of the enclosed acknowledgement form and returning it to Paramount Resources Corporate Compliance Department. 3. Personnel and public safety are the primary consideration of all Paramount Resources activities. 4. Notification of an incident to key Paramount Resources personnel and/or relevant third parties is mandatory. 5. Containment of the incident is critical to limit injury and damages to property and adverse effects on the environment. 6. Mutual aid amongst other area users and government agencies is encouraged at all times by Paramount Resources, including active participation with Area Oil Spill Cooperatives. 7. External communications will be channeled through the appropriate Paramount Resources Public Information Officer. 8. It is the responsibility of all employees and contractors to report any errors or omissions to the Emergency Response Plan to Paramount Resources Corporate Compliance Department. Effective response is dependent upon all aspects of the Emergency Response Plan being current and correct. 9. Exercises will be conducted to ensure effectiveness of the plan.

J.H.T. Riddell President and Chief Operating Officer

Environmental Protection Policy

Paramount Resources is committed to achieving a high standard of environmental stewardship and to taking all reasonable care to maintain public health and safety during all phases of its operations. This commitment will be directed through the Corporate Environmental Protection Policy, and Paramount Resources Environmental Protection Program.

It is our responsibility to stakeholders as a whole to assess the effects of our operations on the environment and upon public health and safety. We must make environmental protection a consistent component of the corporate decision making process by acknowledging and being sensitive to the potential environmental impacts associated with our operations and take prudent actions to minimize these impacts.

Everyone employed by Paramount Resources is responsible for maintaining our Environmental Protection Program. Managers and supervisors will assess the potential effects of their projects and will integrate protective measures to prevent or reduce impacts on the environment and on public health and safety. They are also responsible for communicating and investigating environmentally hazardous situations and occurrences, repair any environmental damage which occurs as a result of our business activities, provide training, and be prepared to respond safely and effectively to emergencies in order to minimize the consequences of emergency events and monitor and audit our Environmental Protection Program. Everyone has a duty and responsibility to propose potential ways to improve our environmental performance and to implement the initiatives for such improvements. Everyone has the right and the responsibility to refuse to do work that does not comply with the company's Environmental Protection Policy and Program.

REFERENCE: The Canadian Labour Code (Section 124) requires an operator (prime contractor) whenever two or more employers perform work at a work site at the same time. The operator (prime contractor) is responsible for: establishing and maintaining a system or process that ensures compliance with the OH&S regulations; ensuring that first aid services, equipment and supplies required under OH&S regulations are available at the work site; and ensuring that the equipment erected or installed by or on behalf of the operator (prime contractor) complies with Primary Contractor: the requirements of OH&S regulations as if the operator (prime contractor) was the employer. Who is the prime contractor? In cases where a prime contractor is required, the owner of the work site is the prime contractor unless other arrangements have been made. The company may transfer the prime contractor title and responsibilities to a person, a group of persons, or an employer. To prove that an agreement has been made between parties, NEB recommends that the agreement be in writing. In transferring this responsibility, the owner should be sure that the other party is capable of, and likely to, fulfill the prime contractor responsibilities. Control of the site belongs to the Paramount Resources’ Wellsite Supervisor (Consultant). Control of Site: In the event of an incident, the Wellsite Supervisor becomes the Incident Commander. Mutual Aid Mutual aid is not required to implement the ERP. Understanding:
