EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
A preliminary inventory of Class V injection wells in the
State of Colorado, done by Dr. E. A. Howard of the Colorado
School of Mines, has been reviewed, evaluated, and revised in
accordance with EPA Contract #68-01-6288. A total of 115 wells
are verified in Colorado. Of these, 81 are aquifer recharge
wells used in ground-water clean-up projects on the grounds of
the Rocky Mountain Arsenal. Twenty-five wells are in the
Piceance Basin with 2 3 related to oil shale extraction projects
and two used for nacholite extraction. The remaining nine wells
are widely distributed geographically and with respect to
usage. This group includes: two geothermal wells, two heat
pump wells, one cooling water return flow well, two mine
backfill wells, and two surface runoff drainage wells.
This well inventory is estimated to be 95 percent complete
within the practical limits of verifiability inherent to the
methodology utilized in this study. A potential problem area,
with respect to this inventory, exists with injection wells
related to irrigation in the San Luis Valley. Though no
injection wells could be verified in this region, there is a
strong suggestion that aquifer recharge wells may be present.
Unintended injection due to backflow through center-pivot
irrigation systems may occur in the San Luis Valley as well as
in the High Plains.
1

-------
Class V injection wells do not appear to be creating any
widespread environmental impact in the State of Colorado, except
possibly for the unverifiable wells in the San Luis Yalley and
High Plains. The environmental impact of the wells iat the Rocky
Mountain Arsenal and in the Piceance Basin is best viewed in
context of the large-scale operations of which the wells are a
part. The potential environmental impacts of the nine remaining
wells are limited by their scarcity and widespread distribution
throughout the state.
A current inventory can most effectively be maintained if
the State of Colorado Division of Water Resources alters its
drilling permit form (WRJ-5-Rev. 76) to categorize wells as
"injection" or "extraction" wells. Permit files could then be
periodically monitored to keep the inventory current. The
Colorado State government is presently revamping its legislation
concerning ground water (and by association, injection wells).
State officials involved in developing new ground-water
regulations should provide a means in the legislation of
maintaining this inventory.

INTRODUCTION
According to the regulations of the Underground Injection
Control (UIC) program, an injection well is a drilled, driven,
or dug hole whose depth is greater than the largest surface
dimension and which is used for the subsurface emplacement of
fluids. These wells are used for a variety of purposes
including aquifer recharge, surface drainage, the production of
oil, gas, and minerals, sanitary waste disposal, and hazardous
waste disposal. Due to misuse and/or improper design, construc-
tion, operation, or abandonment, injection wells may be a
significant threat to ground-water drinking sources. The aim of
the UIC program is to prevent or diminish deterioration of the
quality of potential underground sources of drinking water
(USDW).
Class V injection wells are defined by the U.S. Environ-
mental Protection Agency (EPA) for the purposes of the UIC
program as: "Injection wells not included in Class I, II, III,
or IV" (40 CFR 146.05(e) as amended February 3, 1982). At least
17 examples of injection wells can be included in Class V, but
only 9 of these types have been found in the State of Colorado
(Table 1).
Though Class V wells are reported to account for more than
61 percent of the total number of injection wells in this
country, at present there is little information on the extent,
operation, and impact of Class V wells. This lack of

information has prevented development of a suitable regulatory
approach. Proper regulation therefore requires an inventory of
such wells in each state.
This report provides an updated and verified inventory of
Class V injection wells based on the preliminary inventory
conducted by Dr. E. A. Howard of the Colorado School of Mines
(1984) . The EPA contracted SMC Martin to complete the inventory
of Class V injection wells in Colorado as part of EPA
Contract #68-01-6288. This inventory verification and
assessment process was divided into two tasks. In Task 1, the
completeness of the preliminary Howard inventory was assessed
and a methodology to complete and update it was developed.
Task 2 consisted of implementation of the recommendations made
in Task 1, summarizing the revised inventory, describing each
type of inventoried well and assessing the environmental impact
of the well types.
In practice, Task 1 and Task 2 were, in large part, carried
out concurrently. Task 1 and Task 2 results have been
integrated in this report, just as the tasks were completed in
an integrated manner. This report also assesses the potential
environmental impacts of each well type in Colorado. To
facilitate an understanding of the findings of this study, a
brief background of the physical (geology, geography, hydrology)
and regulatory framework for injection wells in the State of
Colorado is also presented.

-------
METHODOLOGY
The preliminary inventory of Class V injection wells in
Colorado prepared by Dr. E. A. Howard, of the Colorado School of
Mines (1984), was used as the starting point for this study.
Dr. Howard's inventory methodology consisted of three stages:
1)	contacts were made with governmental and private sector
sources of general information on Class V injection wells;
2)	mass mailings were made to individuals and organizations
presumed to be knowledgeable about specific types of Class V
wells, and 3) telephone contacts were made with specific
individuals and organizations determined to have information on
individual well, well types, or well facilities in Colorado.
The mass mailings conducted by Dr. Howard received generally low
response (Table 2). The low percentage of responses to the
mailings is perhaps a function of the overall low utilization of
Class V injection wells in Colorado as confirmed by telephone
contacts. In other words, if contactees had no knowledge of
wells, they usually did not respond to the mailings.
SMC Martin has found that the most effective means of
gathering information for this type of inventory is via phone
contacts with organizations and individuals in both the public
and private sector from whom it is felt relevant information can
be obtained. For this inventory, lists of names and phone
numbers were initially compiled from phone books, directory
assistance, and Dr. Howard's preliminary report. These

individuals were often able to suggest other contacts, and the
list of potential contacts expanded.
Over 2 00 phone calls were made in the course of this study,
c-
of which many were useful sources of information (Appendix A).
Though time-intensive, this method of data collection was
successful in validating the preliminary survey. Included in
the initial round of phone calls were various state agencies in
Colorado within the Board of Health and the Department of
Natural Resources. Other public sector groups contacted include
those at the federal level and a variety of local levels.
Appendix A summarizes these contacts.
Phone calls to relevant private sector individuals and
organizations were made after the initial round of government
calls. These, too, are summarized in Appendix A. Contacts were
chosen from all areas of the state, where possible, to ensure
that the different geographic/agricultural/industrial regions
were adequately researched. In addition to the general survey
of public and private sector contacts, phone calls were also
made to the legal contacts for all inventoried wells in order to
verify the inventory information.
Research was also carried out on relevant aspects of
Colorado geology and water law as well as specific processes,
such as oil shale extraction techniques, that might involve
Class V injection wells. This background provides a context in
which to consider the types and distribution of Class V
injection wells in Colorado.

-------
COLORADO GEOLOGY AND HYDROLOGY
Colorado is often considered a mountain state, but almost
forty percent of its area is part of the Great Plains and
another approximately twenty percent is in major valley and
plateau regions (Figure 1). Elevations in Colorado range from
about 3,300 feet in the eastern high plains to over 14,400 feet
in the Rocky Mountains.
Precipitation is generally low in Colorado and much is
stored through the winter as snowpack to be released over a
short period of time in the spring. Four major river systems
receive the water shed by the mountains. These are the South
Platte, Arkansas, Rio Grande, and Colorado Rivers (Figure 2).
Colorado can be broadly divided into five major ground-water
regions (Figure 2). These regions are: High Plains,
Unglaciated Central Region, Central Mountains, San Luis
(Alluvial) Valley, and Colorado Plateau. Comparisons of
Figures 1 and 2 will illustrate the close relationship between
the physiographic and ground-water regions of Colorado.
The Central Mountain Region (e.g., Rocky Mountains) of
Colorado is characterized by steep slopes, exposed rock
surfaces, and, hydrologically, by relatively limited aquifers.
The Central Mountains principally trap precipitation as winter
snowpack and shed water as spring runoff, thereby supplying the
major river systems listed above.

-------
The Colorado Plateau, the physiographic and ground-water
region in the western part of the state, is a generally high
dissected plateau with limited productive aquifers. Since
population in this region is sparse, water demands are generally
quite low.
Eastern Colorado consists of the Unglaciated Central
Ground-Water Region and the High Plains Ground-Water Region.
This area of the state is characterized by relatively arid
conditions but include some very productive ground-water
resources (e.g., Ogallala aquifer). Irrigation, including
chemigation, is intensive in this region and aquifer recharge,
though not by injection, is commonly practiced, especially along
the South Platte River.
A final important physiographic/ground-water region is the
San Luis Valley, a generally closed alluvial basin with
significant ground-water resources and intensively practiced
agricultural irrigation and aquifer recharge. The San Luis
Valley and High Plains present special 'problem areas1 with
regard to injection wells. Because of the intensive agricul-
tural irrigation in these regions, aquifer recharge and
irrigation backflow types of well injection are probable. This
subject will be discussed later in more detail.
The physical framework of the State of Colorado plays an
important role in the nature of the state's Class V well
population. Mountainous regions are characterized by steep
slope gradients and exposed rock surfaces which promote surface
12

-------
runoff to natural drainage systems. Drilling for wells in the
mountains is more expensive than in the plains and valleys, thus
discouraging well installation where other techniques of water
discharge are available. In the basins and plains of Colorado,
infiltration is rapid in part due to the semi-arid climate and
generally sparse vegetative cover.
The geologic and hydrologic frameworks of Colorado are
generally not conducive to the utilization of injection wells.
Surface discharge is predominantly preferred over injection due
to the rapid infiltration of surface water, the convenient
surface drainage because of steep slope gradients, and the added
cost of well construction in Colorado.

-------
INVENTORY FINDINGS
A total of 115 Class V wells have been inventoried in
Colorado, as summarized in Table 3. Inventory data forms for
these Class V injection wells are compiled in Appendix B. The
majority of Class V wells are found in either the Rocky Mountain
Arsenal or the Piceance Basin areas, while the total number of
verified wells outside of these areas is low. The final
inventory is based on Dr. Howard's preliminary inventory
(Appendix C). The original Howard inventory lists a total of
137 Class V injection wells in the State of Colorado. These
findings were revised by examining the computer inventory sheets
that accompanied Dr. Howard's report, eliminating duplicate
entries, and expanding the listing for wells related to oil
shale projects to account for individual wells or well locations
rather than installations. Table 4 summarizes the findings of
the original and revised Howard inventories discussed above, as
well as the SMC Martin inventory results.
The most significant change noted from the original Howard
inventory is in waste disposal wells. A total of nine septic
waste disposal wells were listed in the initial inventory. None
of these survived the verification procedure carried out in this
study. All were found to be septic tanks that drained to leach
fields on other septic systems without injection wells. In most
of these cases, the inventoried well diameter was in fact the

diameter of the inflow pipe to the septic tank and the well
depth was the depth of the septic tank. This information was
gathered by contact with facility owners and operators.
The status of a number of wells was also revised pr updated
during the course of this study. A number of previously active
operations are now shut down (temporarily abandoned) and
21 wells at the Rocky Mountain Arsenal were changed from "under
construction" to active. Only one new well (Villa Mall) was
added to the inventory, and this well's existence was suggested
by a reference in the Howard inventory (Wright Carpet).
Overall, Dr. Howard's inventory seems to have been fairly
complete and accurate, with the exception of the waste disposal
wells. A 'well-by-well1 comparison of inventories is given in
Appendix C.
Each of the categories of Class V injection wells
inventoried (Table 1) has been evaluated in the Colorado-
specific hydrogeologic context to assess potential environmental
impacts. In the following section, wells have been grouped for
discussion according to EPA classifications found on EPA
Form 7500-48(11-79) (see Appendix B). The formal EPA
designation for each classification is listed, followed by the
well types in that category. In parentheses following the well
descriptions are the correlative "well type" designations as
used by Howard in Table 1. SMC Martin's well groupings are
listed in Table 3.
17

-------
1. Class VA Wells - Wells for return flow of water used in heat
exchange processes: ground-water heat pumps; geothermal
systems, cooling operations (Howard types 1, 3, 12 - see
Table 1)
This group includes all injection wells used to dispose
of water used for heating or cooling. There are five such
wells in the state: two heat pump return flow, two
geothermal return flow, and one cooling water return flow.
All of these are drilled cased holes with depths ranging
from 14 to 76 feet and casing diameters from 4 to
7.5 inches, dependent on the well's site and application.
Injection is under gravity pressure in all of these wells.
The potential environmental impacts of this group of
wells are varied. Temperature changes of ground water could
change aquifer chemical reaction rates, mineral stability,
and biota. Water from different aquifers might be mixed as
a result of injection by this type of well, with subsequent
disruption of receiving aquifer geochemistry. Air,
bacteria, or other materials such as Freon or pipe scale
might be introduced into the subsurface. Impacts could
include plugging, contamination, changed redox conditions,
and altered volatile concentrations in the aquifer.
Despite this long list of potential effects, properly
constructed and maintained systems are likely to have only a
minor and localized environmental impact (SMC Martin,
1983) . None of these effects have been reported in
18

-------
Colorado. The low number of Class VA wells in Colorado
further limits their potential environmental impact on a
statewide scale.
2. Class VW Wells - Wells Used for Residential and
Industrial Waste Disposal, including Mine Backfilling
(Howard types 2, 5, 8, 9 - see Table 1)
There are only two such "wells" in Colorado. Both are
mine backfill operations in which wet slurries are injected:
one at the Bulldog Silver Mine, and one at the Hawk's Nest
Coal Mine. Both of these mines are presently closed down.
At the Bulldog Mine, mine wastes are backfilled into stopes
to keep mine tunnels from collapsing due to the structural
instability of the rock. The Hawk's Nest operation uses
mined out levels for the disposal of mine wastes. In both
cases, thousands of cubic feet of material are, or have
been, injected. This group of wells poses a significant
potential for adverse environmental impact, though in
Colorado this potential is somewhat mitigated by the State
waste disposal and discharge regulations and the scarcity of
such wells.
Mine backfill operations present special problems where
ground water migrates through the backfilled mine voids and
leaches high concentrations of chemical species such as
heavy metals, sulfuric acid, cyanide and other byproducts
from milling processes, from the backfill material itself
(Klusman and Edwards, 1977) . Because stopes or other large
19

-------
mined out areas are typically backfilled, a large volume of
material may be deposited, adding to the potential for
adverse environmental impact.
E.
3. Class VR - Wells Used for Aquifer Recharge (Howard
type 6 - see Table 1)
In general, aquifer recharge wells pose the threat of
ground-water contamination primarily by: air injection,
which may change water redox conditions; introduction of
solids that can clog aquifer pore spaces; and by chemical or
biological contamination from other impurities picked up by
injected water. For this reason, well injection is
generally viewed as an undesirable means of aquifer recharge
by the Water Resources Division of the Colorado Department
of Natural Resources.
All 81 verified wells of this type are on the grounds
of the Rocky Mountain Arsenal and are relatively similar
with respect to construction and size. These are all 10 to
12-inch diameter cased wells with stainless steel screens.
Well depths range from 40 to 60 feet and each was drilled by
the reverse rotary method. Water injection into the wells
is by gravity pressure only. Because all of these wells are
concentrated on the grounds of the Rocky Mountain Arsenal
and are in use as part of a ground-water clean-up project, a
review of the project will serve as background for the
assessment of potential environmental impact.
20

-------
The Rocky Mountain Arsenal, located north-northeast of
Denver, manufactured products for use in chemical warfare
and as pesticides until 1982. Wastewater from the
manufacturing processes has been disposed of in evaporation
ponds and through a deep injection well. The latter
project, terminated in 1965, is well known because of the
occurrence of injection-related earthquakes (Evans, 1966).
However, because the deep injection well was abandoned and
plugged prior to the passage of the Safe Drinking Water Act,
it does not come under the scope of the UIC program, and
has therefore not been inventoried. However, the waste
disposal in evaporation ponds is directly relevant to this
inventory and assessment effort.
In an effort to contain and reverse the ground-water
pollution caused by seepage of wastewater from the
evaporation ponds, clean-up programs, including the use of
injection wells, in some areas of the Arsenal have been put
into effect. The wells reinject ground water that has been
extracted from contaminated zones and purified by carbon
filtering. Presently, there are three series of wells
active on the Arsenal ground. The North Boundary (21 wells)
and Northwest Boundary wells (38 wells) are operated by the
U.S. Army, while the Irondale Containment System wells
(22 wells) are operated by Shell Oil Company, which
manufactured pesticides at this location.
21

-------
All of these injection wells are designed to introduce
purified water, previously pumped out of contaminated areas,
back into the ground-water system. The injected water is
intended to reverse the contamination of the ground water in
the Rocky Mountain Arsenal and to contain existing contami-
nants within the site area (prevent off-site migration).
Therefore, if the project operates as designed, the injec-
tion will have a beneficial effect on the environment.
Possible problems could arise from air injection, solids
carried with the water, and contaminants not removed by the
filtering process.
A report on the North Boundary wells is due from the
U.S. Army Environmental Control office in the spring of
1985. This report should quantitatively address the
question of the environmental impact of the injection
wells. The environmental impact of Class V wells at the
Arsenal must be reviewed within the context of the clean-up
project as a whole. The technology of the RMA clean-up
project necessitates recharge by injection rather than
•natural' recharge through ditches, trenches, etc.
Therefore, injection-related problems, as discussed above,
may occur. However, viewed on the broad scale, the aquifer
recharge wells can only have a beneficial effect on the
environment compared to the pre-cleanup/injection
contamination levels in ground-water originating from the
Arsenal.
22

-------
The chemical irrigation-related pollution problem in
the San Luis Valley and High Plains (Figure 2) is a prime
example of the drawbacks of aquifer recharge by injection
wells (Appendix E). Mr. Ralph Curtis, of the Rio. Grande
Water Conservation District, and Mary Gearhart, of the State
Board of Health, provided much valuable information on this
subject. Agricultural irrigation is intensively practiced
in these regions, and center-pivot irrigation systems are
commonly used. In this technique, a 75- to 100-foot deep
extraction well feeds the pivot for a revolving structure of
wheeled towers which support a perforated water pipe, fed by
the central well. This revolving mechanism distributes
water to a circular field whose radius is equal to the
length of the water distributing pipe. There are an
estimated 1,700-1,800 of these center-pivot systems now in
use in the San Luis Valley and about 2,800 in the High
Plains.
If the outflow from the central well stops due to
misalignment of the system and if check valves on the
center-pivot do not function, then the potential exists for
injection as irrigation fluid runs back through the
center-pivot into the extraction well. This in itself may
not seem significant, but in many of the center-pivot
systems, fertilizers and pesticides are added to the
irrigation water in the distribution pipe. If fluid runs
from this pipe down the central well, then fertilizers and
23

-------
pesticides may find their way into the ground-water system.
This problem is part of chemigation-related pollution which
has been addressed in work by the USGS in Pueblo (Edelman
and Buckles, 1984) and the Water Quality Control Commission
of Colorado (1984). Since the center-pivot system acts as
an injection well only when it malfunctions, it is nearly
impossible to define individual irrigation installations as
Class V wells. Therefore, center-pivot 'injection wells'
cannot be identified or inventoried. The environmental
impact of center-pivot injection is, however, serious and
real. Fertilizers, if they enter the ground water, increase
nitrogen as nitrate plus nitrite in the shallow aquifer
underlying the irrigation region. The environmental impact
of pesticides on ground water is complex and deleterious.
In addition to the aforementioned problem with
irrigation well backflow, there is also strong evidence to
suggest that some former water supply wells in the San Luis
Valley are now being used for aquifer recharge. Most
aquifer recharge in this region occurs via infiltration of
surface waters from ponds and/or ditches. However, some
farmers are thought to utilize former water supply wells in
an aquifer recharge capacity. Surface runoff from
irrigation is directed to field corners where former
extraction wells may be in place and be used for injection
recharge. An estimate of "no more than 50" such wells was
made by Ralph Curtis. Wells may be converted from
24

-------
extraction to injection use simply by removing the pump and
related hardware and lowering the casing to ground level so
water can flow freely in. Identification of individual
sites is impossible without on-site inspection, since no
record exists of such conversions.
These unverified wells have the same potential
environmental impacts as other aquifer recharge wells. The
main problems are the possibilities of air injection, solids
introduction, and contamination of ground water by chemical
and/or biological impurities, particularly fertilizers and
pesticides.
In summary, it appears that the San Luis Valley and the
High Plains may have numerous agriculture-related injection
wells, none of which are verifiable without on-site
investigation. These wells, if they exist, pose the
potential of ground-water pollution by a variety of
contaminants.
4. Class VX - Wells Associated with In Situ Oil Shale
Recovery and Experimental Wells in the Piceance Basin
(Howard types 15, 16 - see Table 1)
The Parachute Creek Member of the Green River Formation
in the Piceance Basin (Figure 3) has been the location of
experimental and production-oriented oil shale extraction
projects since 1955. Although some of the project sites are
temporarily or permanently abandoned, others are presently
(2/85) active. In these projects, three distinctly
25

Area underlain by the G'een River
Fofiat'on rn which the o
-------
different technologies are utilized to extract petroleum
products from oil shale. They are: above ground retorting;
in situ and modified in situ (MIS). The latter two
processes involve underground retorts and Class V injection
wells. Retorting is the process in which oil shale is
heated to free the oil it contains for extraction. Above
ground retorts may be containers into which mined crushed
oil shale is placed for burning. Underground retorts are
simply the zones of oil shale which are to be heated. Both
in situ and HIS processes use underground retorts
(Figure 4).
The in situ process, as applied in the Piceance Creek
Basin by the Equity Oil Company (BX project), utilizes steam
injection into underground retorts to mobilize shale oil.
Extraction wells then pump the hot oil/water mixture out of
the report. Eight steam injection wells were installed for
this project, averaging 1,396 feet deep with 22 perforations
for injection. The perforations are in two groups below the
785-foot (average) level in each well.
Modified in situ processes involve partial mining of an
underground retort and subsequent burning of the oil shale
to drive the oil out. Both Occidental Oil Shale Company and
Cathedral Bluffs Shale Oil Company use an MIS system in
which hot inert gas and air are injected by pipes into the
retorts to facilitate burning. Each retort uses a number of
injection conduits, the number depending on the stage of the

In the modified in situ method, underground retorts are
partially mined out, then rubblized (broken up by
explosions) and ignited. The ignition is facilitated
by the injection of hot gases and air. Mobilized oil
is then pumped out.
28

-------
project in which the retort is being used. This technology
is proprietary and details of retort construction could not
be obtained.
An MIS process was also used by the Rio Blanco Oil
Shale Company in their project, which is no longer active.
Two retorts with gas injection to promote oil shale burning
were utilized on this site. In addition, six aquifer
recharge wells were installed to reinject ground water
extracted from the retort areas to facilitate dry burning.
These six wells are 6.5-inch cased holes drilled to an
average depth of 1,322 feet.
In addition to these active and inactive operations,
there are presently two proposals before the U.S. Synthetic
Fuels Corporation for large-scale extraction projects in the
Piceance Basin. The companies involved are Union Oil
Company and Cathedral Bluffs Shale Oil Company. Four MIS
retorts will be constructed if the Cathedral Bluffs Oil
Shale Company proposal is funded. The Union Oil Company
project uses aboveground retorting technology and no
injection wells.
Injection wells used in oil shale extraction introduce
by design a variety of fluids into the subsurface. In the
case of the water reinjection wells of the Rio Blanco
Company, the potential environmental impact is that of any
aquifer recharge well: introduction of oxygen, solids,
bacteria, or other contaminants into the ground water.
29

-------
MIS-related hot inert gas injection and oxidation-
promoting air injection could, where employed, elevate
ground-water temperatures significantly, introduce mobilized
shale oil into an aquifer, and change the redox and volatile
conditions in the ground water. In any case, the
environmental impact of MIS-related injection wells is
greatly overshadowed by the overall impact of the oil shale
extraction (mining) process. Thus, the environmental impact
of Class V injection wells associated with any oil shale
extraction project must be evaluated within the context of
the project and its overall impacts as a whole.
5. Class VX - Wells Used for Experimental Technologies
(Howard type 15 - see Table 1)
Two additional wells designed for nahcolite (sodium
bicarbonate) extraction and classified as experimental
technology wells were inventoried in the Piceance Basin
(Appendix F). One nahcolite recovery well was drilled to
1,843 feet and the other to 1,849 feet in depth. Six-inch
casing extends to the 1,802- and 1,800-foot depths, respec-
tively, with the remaining lengths of hole uncased for hot
water injection. Hot water is injected through these wells
into a saline zone where nahcolite is dissolved by the
water. The nahcolite-bearing pregnant solution is then
pumped back to the surface. Since injected fluid is subse-
quently pumped out and the injection zone is relatively
impermeable and underlies the lowest USDW, no significant
30

-------
environmental impact is presumed to have occurred from the
operation of these now abandoned wells.
Another experimental technology well that appears in
c-
the initial inventory is the VTR in Longmont. This
operation was removed from the inventory under instruction
from the EPA because it is a sealed system that does not
inject into the subsurface.
6. Class VD - Wells Used for Surface Drainage (Howard
type 4 - see Table 1)
One facility with two of these wells was inventoried in
Colorado. Both wells are 2 0 feet deep, 3 6 inches in
diameter, and inject under gravitational pressure. These
surface flow drain wells can have significant environmental
impacts related to the introduction of surface-derived
contaminants into ground water. The inventoried wells,
however, are used for disposing of roof runoff at an
elementary school. These wells seem to have very little
potential for adverse environmental impact, since harmful
material is unlikely to be concentrated in snowmelt from a
school roof.
31

-------
MAINTAINING AN UPDATED CLASS V INVENTORY
This inventory is presently complete except for the San Luis
Valley and can be maintained with periodic updating. To
facilitate the updating process, the permit application form
(Colorado Form WRJ-5, Rev. 76, illustrated in Figure 5) for well
installation could be revised to include a classification of the
well by use as injection or extraction. If this change were
made, updating of the inventory could be accomplished simply by
reviewing well permit applications and inventorying the
injection wells. The Colorado Division of Water Resources
(Contact: Mary Gearhart) is presently (3/85) revising its
ground-water regulations. EPA involvement in this process could
perhaps ensure that the new regulations would classify and list
injection wells in one state file. This file could then be
monitored by the EPA and an updated inventory maintained
accurately.
With respect to the San Luis Valley and High Plains, this
inventory could be established and maintained by cooperation
from the State and federal agencies (e.g., Colorado Deprttment
of Health, USGS) who are investigating the chemigation-related
pollution problem in these areas. Identifying and inventorying
aquifer recharge wells and chronically injecting center-pivot
systems could become part of the focus of broader scale studies
in this region. The most effective, if not time efficient,
means of carrying out this task would be to conduct a

farm-by-farm inventory of irrigation practices. In addition,
irrigation supply houses could be checked to help to identify
chronically malfunctioning systems. The EPA should work closely
with the State so that an effective inventory of injection wells
in these regions can be developed. Such an inventory could be
carried out by extensive field work to evaluate irrigation
practices and systems in the potential problem areas. Because
chemigation in Colorado is a present concern of the State
Department of Health (Appendix E), the EPA should work directly
with this agency during their investigation of the problem.
After the state's investigation is finished, the EPA can conduct
an evaluation to determine its completeness. A decision can
then be made as to whether further work is needed with respect
to providing the basis for a well inventory. From a complete
evaluation of chemigation in Colorado, an inventory of Class V
injection wells related to this problem could be compiled. In
addition, a plan could be developed to relieve the adverse
environmental impact of these injection wells.
34

-------
CONCLUSIONS OF INVENTORY AND POTENTIAL ENVIRONMENTAL
IMPACT STUDY
One hundred and fifteen Class V injection wells have been
verified in the State of Colorado. Of these, 81 are on the
grounds of the Rocky Mountain Arsenal as part of their
ground-water clean-up operations, and 25 are in the Piceance
Creek Basin involved with oil shale and nahcolite extraction
installations (Figure 3). These two fairly limited geographic
regions contain more than 90 percent of all verified Class V
wells in Colorado. The San Luis Valley and High Plains have the
potential for many Class V wells, although none could be
verified there during this effort.
These four areas with real or suggested concentrations of
wells present special problems regarding environmental impact.
Overall, however, only the San Luis Valley and High Plains have
significant potential for environmental impact of injection
wells. In the other two areas, the potential impact of the
injection wells is overshadowed by the large-scale projects of
which they are part.
Outside of the four well concentrations, there are
relatively few injection wells. The potential environmental
impact of these wells is limited and localized in part because
of the sparse distribution of the wells throughout the state.

APPENDIX C
Data Sheets from Initial Howard Inventory
of Class V Injection Wells
These sheets are reproductions of the computer data sheets
which comprise the initial Howard inventory. There is one sheet
for each inventoried well in the original inventory. In this
appendix, the Rocky Mountain Arsenal wells are represented by a
single sheet. In the original inventory, there were 111 such
sheets. These inventory sheets represented here have been
superseded by the inventory forms in Appendix B.

CHEMIGATION: Issues and Options
DRAFT
SUMMARY
In the last 12-18 months, considerable attention has been focused on
our ground water resource and how various activities do or can impact
those resources. In Colorado, there is a growing question among
ground water users in agricultural areas about contamination (existing
or potential) of the ground water due to agricultural practices.
The question was initially raised in regard to nitrates, which are
found in commercial fertilizers. With the increase In the number of
other chemicals used for pest control and weed control, the scope of
the issue appears to have expanded. Nitrate is an inorganic chemical
for which a maximum contaminant level (MCL) in drinking water has been
established at 10.0 mg/1 as nitrogen (parts per million).
Historically, an elevated nitrate level In ground water in and around
agricultural areas has been due to non-point source percolation of the
fertilizer down into the aquifer. However, a relatively new chemical
application method has provided a direct connection betweeen the
ground water and agrichemlcals, which includes commercial
fertilizers. The method is called "chemlgation" and it utilizes a
standard center pivot irrigation system to apply agrichemlcals to the
crops. The center pivot systems are connected to water wells and,
because the systems were initially designed to move water only, there
are no safety precautions required to keep the agrichemlcals from
being discharged into the ground water through the well head.
Most of the pesticides used for agricultural purposes are not limited
in the drinking water regulations. There are on-going studies by EPA
to determine the potential health hazards due to those chemicals.
Because of the chance for direct contamination of the ground water,
the agricultural community has approached the High Plains Technical
Coordinating Committee to research the Impacts to ground water of
chemlgation and to provide technical, regulatory and educational
options for minimizing the risk of contamination from this practice.
This document will summarize the issues associated with chemlgation
and the options for dealing with the Issues.
E-2

-------
OVERVIEW OF CHEMIGATION
Geographic
Figure 1 (attached) Is a schematic diagram of the mechanical
modifications which make a center pivot system useable for
chemlgatlon. The valves and piping shown on this diagram are
not required but are suggested by some Injection unit
manufacturers as safety devices. Figure 2 (attached);ls a
schematic diagram of a chemical Injection unit.
In Colorado, chemlgatlon is practiced quite extensively in
the north and central eastern plains (referred to as the High
Plains area of the Ogallala aquifer), in the San Luis Valley,
and it will also be used in the San Juan Basin. In 1983, six
northeastern Colorado counties irrigated approximately
500,000 acres of cropland through some mechanical means. Of
this amount, 48,000 acres were treated with three
agrlchemlcals which were labelled for chemlgatlon. It is
projected that in 1984 the amount of acreage in those six
countleB which will be treated via chemlgatlon will Increase
by five hundred percent to about 250,000 acres. (Reference:
CSU Extension Service, Akron, CO.)
Based on 1983 Information from the State Engineer's Office,
there were about 4600 wells permitted for irrigation in those
same six counties. Because each well could be mechanically
modified for chemlgatlon, each well 1b a potential
contamination source. It Is Important to note here that if
one gallon of fertilizer were spilled into an aquifer, it
could Increase the nitrate level to 10 mg/1 (the Drinking
Water Standard) in 100,000 gallons of water. The compound
effect of all the irrigation wells could be very
significant. The trend 1b towards increased use of
chemlgatlon In Colorado.
The people who use ground water for Irrigation and drinking
water do so because it Is the only water available at a
reasonable cost. (Most of the private wells for household
use in agricultural areas are drilled Into the same water
source as the irrigation wells.) It is essential to be aware
of the potential for contamination and to be responsive to
the needs of the agricultural community by improving
chemlgatlon and reducing the risk to the environment and to
public health.
E-3

-------
Why Chemigation Is Used
Many states have conducted research concerning chemigation and have
found that there are two basic reasons for using chemigation. The
first is a practical cme. It allows the farmer to apply the chemicals
to the crops at the sane time as Irrigation Is accomplished, thereby
reducing the time required to do both. The second reason Is
economics. In today's market a farmer could save about $4.50 per acre
per year using the center pivot system for chemical application
instead of other traditional methods. One reason for the cost savings
is that the chemicals are applied uniformly to the crops and
misapplication to some areas is avoided. Chemigation is a viable,
practical method for agricultural use. If certain precautions were
taken to prevent direct ground water contamination the benefits to the
farmer could far outweigh the risks
Some of the potential difficulties associated with chemigation are
related to environmental concerns. One, of course, is the direct link
to ground water through the well head. Other problems are associated
vlth the misapplication of agrichemlcals because of peculiarities in
the sprinkler Bysteo equipment. The specific studies which provide
the background for this paper are listed in the attached bibliography.
STATUTORY AND REGULATORY CONSIDERATIONS
The method of chemigation is not specifically regulated by the
federal government. However, several federal laws regulate the
use of the chemicals. These laws are primarly environmental laws
and are discussed below. The enforcement of all or part of these
laws has been delegated to the State and the discussion describes
the delegations.
A. FIFRA [Federal Insecticide, Fungicide & Rodenticide Act, 1947
(amended by the Federal Pesticide Act in 1978)]
1. FIFRA regulates pesticides, Including those used for
agriculture. All pesticides must be registered with
EPA. EPA also has the authority to classify a pesticide
or certain uses of it as restricted and/or ban a
pesticide and certain uses of it. Under FIFRA,
directions for use are required to be on a pesticide
label. These directions include: 1) the sites of
application and associated target pests, 2) the dosage
rate associated vlth each site and pest, and 3) the
method of application, including instructions for
dilution.
The 1978 Federal Pesticide Act amended the FIFRA so that
a method of application may be used unless It Is
specifically prohibited on the label. This had the
effect of allowing many more peBtlclde6 to be applied
through center pivot irrigation systems than those which
were labelled for this use.
E-4

-------
Prior to passage of the 1978 amendment, there were only
six herbicides registered for use In c.p. systems and
one insecticide.
Since 1978, six additional pesticides have been
registered for chemigation use. Many chemical companies
are actively marketing pesticides for use in chemigation
because that use has not been specifically prohibited or
restricted.
FIFRA does not provide authority to inspect application
equipment but It does have provisions regarding misuse.
2. Colorado currently licenses only for hire applicators of
agrlchemlcals. The state has no authority to regulate
private applicators. The program Is boused in the
Colorado Department of Agriculture, Pesticide Section.
The authority is through the Colorado Pesticide
Applicator's Act.
B. CERCLA [The Comprehensive Environmental Response,
Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 (Superfund)]
1.	CERCLA Is designed to deal vlth emergency chemical
releases. CERCLA states that:
No person (including the United States or any state) may
recover under authority of this section for any response
costs or damages resulting from application of a
pesticide product registered under the Federal
Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodentlclde Act.
Under this act, the release of hazardous substances in a
reportable amount (one pound or the amount identified in
section 311(b)(4) of the Federal Water Pollution Control
Act) oust be reported to the National Response Center.
This Beans that one pound of certain agrlchemlcals
should be reported when spilled. Splll6 Include
backflov Into water wells.
2.	Colorado has not assumed the Superfund program as yet.
E-5

-------
C.	FWPCA [Federal Water Pollution Control Act]
1.	The FWPCA lists a number of chemicals as hazardous.
Some of these are registered pesticides. Under FWPCA,
the person responsible for contaminating the vater with
one or any of those chemicals is liable for all cleanup
costs. Although CERCLA has replaced the FWPCA as the
enforcement tool for any environmental damage, FWPCA can
be specifically applied to the Injection of fertilizers
into surface vater.
2.	Colorado has assumed the functions of the Federal Water
Pollution Control Act. The Colorado Department of
Health administers the program through the Water Quality
Control Division (WQCD) under the authority of the
Colorado Water Quality Control Act (WQCA). Although the
WQCA was designed to protect ground water (in addition
to surface waters) from pollution, no specific
regulations are in place for accomplishing that
function. A co-ordinated ground water protection plan
Is expected to be endorsed by the Water Quality Control
Commission in 1984. The program will be
prevention—based and will be designed to protect
beneficial uses.
D.	RCRA [Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976]
1.	This law deals with hazardous waste disposal. This law
has generally been used to address ground water
contamination due to hazardous waste disposal and Is not
easily extrapolated to chemlgation.
2.	Colorado is expected to have full delegation of the RCRA
program during 1984 but 1b not expected to address
chemlgation specifically. The program will be housed
with the Waste Management Division of the Colorado
Department of Health.
E.	SDWA [Safe Drinking Water Act of 1974]
1. Under SDWA, public water supplies are required to
monitor the water at the tap. A public water supply is
one having at least 15 service connections or regularly
serving at least 25 individuals.
SDWA also authorizes underground injection control
programs (UIC). Since the State of Colorado has not
been authorized to assume the U1C program for four of
the five classes of wells, the Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) has promulgated a federally-administered
program for those four classes. One of the U1C
classifications for injection well6 is Class'IV,
"Hazardous and Radioactive Wastes Injected Into or Above
Fresh Water," which EPA has proposed to ban.
E-6

-------
2. The Drinking Water Section in the Colorado Department of
Health administers the Safe Drinking Water Act under the
general public health statutes. Although the Safe
Drinking Water Act regulates water purveyors, Article 11
of the Colorado Primary Drinking Water Regulations
prohibits hazardous cross-connections In public-water
systems. The section provides for annual inspection of
¦echanical devices that protect systems from
cross-connections.
OPTIONS
The most important aspect of the issues regarding chemigation is that
the proper equipment changes the risk of contamination from a
potential problem to a preventable problem. Recommendations for
equipment used in chemigation are listed below.
The letters in parentheses refer to Figure 1.
A. Irrigation system equipment standards
l.(F&B) The irrigation system should be equipped with an
anti-back syphon (check valve) and vacuum relief
breaker. This valve will prevent back flow from
entering the well. The valve should be located
between the well and the injection point on the
naln pipe. It should be constructed or coated with
corrosion relstant material. The seal should be as
chemically resistant as possible and it should be
replaceable. The entire valve should be installed
so that frequent inspection and parts replacement
can be done with minimal effort. The valve should
be either diaphragm-activated by hydraulic line
pressure, spring loaded or weight loaded to provide
drip tight closure. The spring or weight loading
should be sufficient to hold at least one pound per
square inch in the direction of flow. Also a drain
valve should be located at the lowest point ahead
of the check valve.
2.00 The irrigation pumping plant and the chemical
injection pump should be Interlocked so that if the
irrigation pumping plant stops the chemical
injection pump also stops. This will prevent the
filling the entire irrigation pipeline with the
chemical mixture from the supply tank. The
sprinkler should be operated on the automatic
setting.
E—7

-------
3.(M) A check valve in the chemical injection line is
needed to 8top flow of water from the irrigation
system into the chemical supply tank. If this
check valve were omitted or malfunctioned and the
injection pump stopped, irrigation water could flow
back through the chemical line into the chemical
supply tank, overflowing the tank and causing a
spill around the irrigation well.
B. Chemical injection equipment standards
The letters in parentheses refer to Figure 2.
1.(7)	The pump's accuracy is critical. It should be able
to pump with less than 1Z error in rate. It should
show a great deal of resistance to chemical
breakdown and allow precision and dependable flow
rate adjustment. It should allow adjustment
without disassembly of equipment which could result
In spills.
2.(Q,X,S)	The chemical nurse tank should be completely
dralnable for cleaning, etc. It should be a closed
system - air vented but sealed to prevent outside
contamination. The tank should have as much
resistance to chemicals and structural damage
(puncture and collision) as possible.
3.(0,U,W)	Fittings, hoses, filters, and seals should
demonstrate a high degree of chemical and
structural damage resistance. Explanation: Teflon
and nylon are both rated as the most chemical
resistant material while P.V.C. (polyvinylchloride)
shows less resistance. They should allow maximum
pressure of system with a built in safety factor
for transient high pressure. They should have a
size and capacity rating to facilitate the
equipment and application volume.
4.(T)	On-off valves should be accurate and reliable (no
leakage). They should be able to withstand the
maximum pressures of the system. Again they Bhould
be chemical and structural damage resistant.
5.(P)	The calibration devise should allow precision
measuring accuracy.
E-8

-------
The protection of Irrigation water supplies requires
several separate pieces of safety equipment. It is not
adequate to choose only one or tvo from the list
previously discussed. Rather, the proper protection of
an Irrigation water supply requires the use of all of
the pieces of safety equipment. Chemlgatlon safety Is
dependent on the right equipment regularly maintained.
C. Conclusions
Chemlgatlon can be a safe, economical method for application
of chemicals. There are questions, however, that can best be
answered by the agricultural community so that the best
available protection is afforded. Those questions are:
*	How can the state best serve the needs of all three
groups?
*	Should a concentrated effort be made to develop
equipment standards?
*	Are the suggestions made for equipment improvements
acceptable and will they prevent environmental
hazards?

RE: Underground Injection Control (UIC) permit requirements.
Dear Mr. Bel 1:
Industrial Resources Inc. (IRI) is proposing to develop a single well bulk
sanpling test to solution mine nahcolite in the NE 1/4 of Section 27, T1S,
R98W in Rio Blanco County, Colorado. From discussions with you (14 March
1983) through our environmental consultant, Canp Dresser and McKee (CDM), it
is my understanding that the U1C program is not currently in place but that
your agency requests an Informational letter describing our process in
relation to U1C reouirements. This letter, therefore, serves to delineate
critical components of the proposed injection program in terns of specific
regulatory requirements. Information provided herein is designed to meet
the requirements of 40 CFR 122 and 40 CFR 146, as amended. The proposed
program is presented below in terms of the plan of operation, the existing
hydrogeologic environment, and proposed monitoring plans.
Plan of Operation
The proposed mining plan involves a Class 111 well for the solution mining
of salts. It consists of a single well test to (1) demonstrate the
feasibility of solution mining techniques for the extraction of nahcolite,
(2) optimize the mining process, and (3) evaluate product characteristics.
The single well test will be conducted over approximately a six-month period
during the surmer and fall of 19B3, with a total production of approximately
250 tons of nahcolite.
Drilling of the production well is scheduled to commence in mid-May 19B3.
The well will be drilled to an initial depth of approximately 1,795 feet.
(Geologic and geophysical logging will be accomplished following drilling
activities.) This section will be fully cased with a nominal 6-inch
diameter steel casing. Surface casing of approximately a 10-inch diameter
will also be installed. The annular space between the well bore and casing
will be sealed to adeouately isolate the injection zone from the lower
aquifer, and the lower aquifer from the upper aquifer, (reference geoloqic
description below) with a cement or grout/bentonite slurry. Additionally,
150 feet of steel surface casing will be sealed in place to preclude
Introduction of surface runoff. Once the annular seal has been established

end verified by bond logging, an open hole Injection zone will be drilled to
a depth of 1,8?6 feet. Total surficlal disturbance associated;with
production drilling activities will consist of an area approximately 50 feet
by 75 feet in size.
Nahcolite will be extracted using solution mining techniques. Hot water
will be injected into the saline zone (1,795 to 1,826 feet below qround) and
the dissolved nahcolite will be pumped to the surface. The pregnant
solution will be pumped from the injection well through pipes to a surface
bulk sampling plant. Processing Includes dewatering, drying, and
crystallizi ng.
Additional ancillary surface facilities will include a portable power
generator, topsoil stockpile, a pit (plastic-lined) to hold water for
drilling purposes, and access road(s). Details of the surface facilities
and associated activities are provided in the Limited Impact Permit, on file
with the Colorado Mined Land Reclamation Division (CMLRD).
Existing Hydroqeologic Environment
The site is situated near the center of the Piceance Basin, an asymetrical
trough filled with thick seauences of Eocene age deposits (see attached
Figures 1 and 2). The dominant geologic units are the Uinta and Green River
Formations. The younger Uinta Formation comprises the exposed surficial
strata, largely silty sandstone and siltstone, with interbedded marlstone.
The unit is approximately 1,000 feet thick on this site. The Green River
Formation underlies the Unita Formation, and has a total thickness of
greater than 3,000 feet. The Green River Formation is divided into three
principal sub-units. In descending order, these are the Parachute Creek,
Garden Gulch, and Douglas Creek members. The latter two members are
characterized by largely Impermeable shales and clayey siltstone, and
generally comprise the lower confining zone for the ore body.
The Parachute Creek member is typically divided into upper and lower zones,
with the kerogen-rich Mahogany Zone comprising a semi-permeable to
impermeable intervening layer. Similarly, the occurrence of ground water
within the Pa/achute Creek member is divided into upper and lower aquifers.
The upper aquifer includes fractured marlstones of the upper Parachute Creek
member as well as fractured sandstones of the overlyinq Uinta Formation.
The lower aquifer consists of marlstones which have been extensively
leached, where nahcolite has been dissolved from the formation. This is
consequently referred to as the leach zone. These aquifers are the only
potential Underground Sources of Drinking Water (USDW) beneath the site.
The zone of injection, regionally referred to as the saline zone, underlies
the lower aquifer. The saline zone itself is uniformally a nahcolite-
bearing marlstone and is relatively impermeable. It is not, and cannot be,
considered a USDW. This mineralized zone occurs at a depth of approximately
1,79? feet, and is separated from the lower aquifer by nearly 30 feet of
relatively competent, unleached marlstones. Within these marlstones are

three highly plastic kerogen zones referred to as the "rubber beds" whereas
Garden Gulch and Douglas Creek strata form an Impermeable lowei* boundary to
the saline zone. The rubber beds provide hydraulic Isolation above the
saline zone to the lower aquifer.
1R1 Is utilizing a 1/4-mile radius to encompass the area of review.
However, data available from both inside and outside this area have been
utilized for the characterization of the existing environment. A ground
water use Inventory indicates that no ground water wells have been installed
within a one-mile radius of the proposed injection site. Additionally,
ground water use from the lower aquifer 1s sparse, owing largely to high
levels of Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) in the aquifer. TDS concentrations
are uniformly in excess of 1000 mg/1, and often range as high as 40,000
mg/1 as reported in the Final Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement
for the Prototype Oil Shale Leasing Proqram (Bureau of Land Management
1983.)
Proposed Monitoring Plans
1RI proposes a monitoring plan that encompasses three components:
(1)	Well construction that ensures no migration of injection fluid
through the well bore,
(2)	Calculation of a fluid balance during injection and recovery, and
(3)	Installation and sampling of a monitoring well.
The production well will be fully cased through the lower aquifer and
through the intervening impermeable kerogen beds. Therefore, no loss of
fluid is anticipated through the well itself. Furthermore, the annulus will
be sealed to prevent upward migration from the injection zone into the lower
aquifer in the well bore.
Any potential excursion of injection water or saline-pregnant recovery fluid
will be detected from deficits 1n the water balance. As noted previously,
no migration is anticipated due to the impermeable character of the
Injection zone and overlying strata.
1R1 will install a monitor well to provide an extra measure of security.
Data from existing wells in the area have been utilized to calculate the
flow direction (N 34° E) and approximate natural flow velocity (0.01 ft/day)
of the lower aquifer. These data allow selection of an optimal location
(down-gradient) for installation of the monitoring well.
The monitor well will be initially drilled to a depth of 1,300 feet at the
top of the lower aquifer. This section will be cased for the full length
with 4-inch diameter steel casing, and the annular space sealed across the
Mahogany Zone as with the production well. An open hole completion interval

will then be drilled to a total depth of 1,765 feet below oround surface.
The monitor well will be situated approximately 50 feet from the production
well and will disturb an area of approximately BO feet by 75 feet.
Water samples will be collected three times from the monitor well. These
are prior at operation, during operation, and approximately one month after
operation. Samples will be analyzed for the following consltuents:
These parameters were selected to provide both an adequate representation of
existing conditions and an Indication 1f any fluid Bigration is occurring.
Well Abandonment
Subsequent to completion of the monitoring progran, each well will be
equipped with a locking steel surface cap. The cap will Insure that foreign
material (including surface runoff) will not be introduced into the cased or
completion interval. No plugging or sealing of the wells 1s currently
planned so that the wells can be used for future monitoring purposes if
necessary.
I trust that the information provided in this letter will serve the needs of
your agency. IRI will be happy to work with the Water Quality Control
Division on this test program as with any future Injection programs.
