  1. Pennsylvania DEP’s Underground Injection Control Data Flow May 31, 2012 Jen Gumert, PA DEP

  2. Underground Injection Control Data Flow • What is Underground Injection Control? • Why PADEP selected the UIC Data Flow • Designing and Developing the Process • Challenges

  3. What is Underground Injection Control ? The Underground Injection Control Program: regulates the construction of, permits, inspects, identifies violations, tracks enforcements, and tracks closures of injection wells that place fluids underground for storage or disposal.

  4. What is Underground Injection Control ? 5 Types of Underground Injection Control: Class 1: (none in PA) Below DW Source Class 2: OG Brines and Fluids injected below DW Source Class 3: Hazardous Waste injected into or above (OUTLAWED) Class 4: RCRA or CERCLA cleanup Class 5: Anything built to receive water waters including recovery of water from creeks

  5. What is Underground Injection Control ? EPA Region 3 is primacy of the Underground Injection Control Program in Pennsylvania. Historically, UIC data has been shared with DEP on an ad hoc basis, through email, when needed by various programs. The manual process of acquiring and loading this data is time and labor intensive. This effort will automate the receipt and processing of UIC data to make it routinely available to PA’s Oil and Gas and Water Programs through their GIS and Ad Hoc Tools

  6. Why PADEP Selected the UIC Data Flow

  7. Why PADEP Selected the UIC Data Flow

  8. Why PADEP Selected the UIC Data Flow Benefits of PADEP UIC Dataflow • Automate the flow of this data to DEP programs in order to provide more timely access for: • Risk assessment and potential sources of contamination • Aid in ground water contaminant investigations • Aid to track where Marcellus frack water originated • Aid in identifying potential responsible parties of contaminations of water supplies • Aid in permit assessments (potential violators, large volume injectors)

  9. Designing and Developing the UIC Dataflow • Obtain TEST XML File from EPA Region 3 • Create Staging and ODS Tables • Create ETL Process • Identify Data Quality Issues • Provide access to GIS and Ad Hoc Tools • Create GIS Layers • Create Ad Hoc Objects

  10. Designing and Developing the UIC Dataflow • Obtain TEST XML File from Region 3 • Create Staging and ODS Tables • Create ETL Process • Identify Data Quality Issues • Provide access to GIS and Ad Hoc Tools • Create Ad Hoc Objects • Create GIS Layers

Constituent (Class I only) Contact Facility Permit Permit Activity Waste (Class I only) Well Well Type Engineering (Class I, and deep wells only) Well Status Geology (Class I, and deep wells only) Location Violation MI Test Enforcement Response Correction Inspection Designing and Developing the UIC Dataflow National UIC Database

  12. Designing and Developing the UIC Dataflow • Obtain TEST XML File from Region 3 • Create Staging and ODS Tables • Create ETL Process • Identify Data Quality Issues • Provide access to GIS and Ad Hoc Tools • Create Ad Hoc Access • Create GIS Layers
