  • Rev. 0C Revised Pages
    Document ID 5025024 Attachment 2 With regard to past operations at the site involving an oil recovery facility with tanks within the CIS Facility Site boundary, it should be noted that there are no oil recovery operations presently occurring on the Site and none are reasonably foreseeable. There are 7 aboveground storage tanks (ASTs) associated with past brine disposal activities on the site. These ASTs are holding tanks that were used for storing brine and settling solids and separating residual oil from oil-field brines. 'The tanks range in size from 150 barrels to 250 barrels. These holding tanks or ASTs are not in use. No containers of hazardous substances have been noted in prior site visits (2007) or most recent site visits (2016). Within Section 13, which is where the CIS Facility would be located, two additional tanks (250 gallon barrels) are present at the well location in the southwest portion of the Site. One active oil/gas well on the southwest portion of Section 13 operates at minimum production to maintain mineral rights. 2.2.3 Air Transportation The airspace surrounding the CIS Facility is unrestricted and at any given time there would be the potential for commercial aircraft, military aircraft, and civilian aircraft to be flying in that airspace at various altitudes and at various speeds. Commercial aircraft would fly in accordance with flight plans filed with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and would be controlled by the national air traffic control system [2.2.5] [2.2.18]. Military aircraft would fly within designated Military Training Routes (MTRs), which may or may note be flown under air traffic control.
