Entire site is fenced with wire. Well house fenced in with cattle panel. No gauges present. Well needs working pressure gauges on both tubing and casing in accordance with ARSD 74:12:02:16. Well is audibly leaking; small hissing sound inside well house, sounds like it's right near the wellhead. DENR staff contacted March Kimmel (Spyglass) and informed him that Spyglass needed to repair the well. We informed the Gilberts (landowners) that the well was leaking and that Spyglass was arranging to have the well repaired. Update (07/05/2016): Mr. Kimmel reports that the well has been repaired.

Dear Ms. Dahl-

Per our previous conversations, the other associated parties on our call/ communication chain are aware; there are still conflicted legal positions with Spyglass Cedar Creek, LP and New Frontier Energy/ Samyak Verra/ Tristan Farel et-al, and whose operational responsibility it is to provide remedies to all of the well/ field issues that have been identified in your December 14, 2015 inspection report. In spite of the legal questions, it is as discussed Spyglass' goal to bring the 40 wells into compliance, rehabilitate the field and bring the project back on-line as soon as is feasible. Understanding that we feel there are legal question regarding New Frontier; In order to try and move forward we intend to try and do the following in response to your assessment of issues:

remove pit liner at surface, correct erosion issues.

Understanding that this is the beginning of the wet season and not looking to cause further road or surface site damage; it is our intention to have the majority of this completed by early June.

Additionally, Spyglass Cedar Creek is currently in discussion with a well-financed, experienced operator to potentially bring in as a partner to get the project rehabilitated, bring the wells into compliance and get the field back on-line. They are in the due-diligence portion of the potential partnership and once the partnership is formed, they/we will move quickly to start rebuilding the project and start to again develop and produce the minerals. Concurrently, we will continue to try and clear up the legal issues with New Frontier Exploration, who has caused so many legal and financial issues for us, the land owners and the State.

We expect this partnership to be made in the next 30 days or so and then our work will begin. As soon as we memorialize our agreements I would like to schedule a meeting to see how we can work together to get this project back on track.

Although mostly created by groups/ people not under our control I do sincerely regret that this situation has caused so much trouble for everyone. I look forward to trying to rebuild this project and having a long-lasting, good relationship with you, and the State of South Dakota.

production, or plugging and abandoning the well in accordance with Administrative Rules of

South Dakota requirements.

2: Valves and gauges must be installed and maintained in good working order to permit pressure

readings to be obtained on both casing and tubing.

Dear Mr. Kimmel:

It has come to our attention that Spyglass Cedar Creek, LP (Spyglass) is addressing Bureau of

Land Management compliance issues concerning eight wells in Harding County, South Dakota,

that produce federal minerals. We want to remind you that Spyglass is the operator of record of

32 additional gas wells in South Dakota in addition to those eight that produce federal minerals.

As such, Spyglass is responsible for maintaining all 40 wells and ensuring they are in compliance

with South Dakota requirements. As we have advised you, or attempted to, on numerous

occasions over the past three years, all 40 wells are out of compliance and have been for quite

some time (see attached table).

We have been more than patient waiting for Spyglass to come to some kind of resolution on

these issues. However, our patience is worn thin and we now need to see some action on your

part. Failure to bring all 40 of Spyglass Cedar Creek’s Harding County wells into compliance

will force us to seriously consider enforcement. Possible enforcement actions include, but are not

necessarily limited to: requiring Spyglass Cedar Creek to permanently plug and abandon all

wells; revoking drilling/operating permits pursuant to SDCL 45-9-73; requiring additional bonds

sufficient to plug and reclaim each well site (which could amount to one million dollars or

more); levying monetary penalties up to $500 per day per violation (potentially tens of millions

of dollars); filing a lien against Spyglass Cedar Creek for costs associated with well plugging,

removal of equipment, and surface restoration; shutting down and sealing property by the

Secretary pursuant to 45-9-70; and requesting the Board of Minerals and Environment to act on

Spyglass’ bonds. To avoid enforcement we are requesting that you respond by January 31, 2016

with a plan outlining how and when you intend to bring wells into compliance.

If you have any questions or concerns you would like to discuss, please feel free to contact me at

605.773.4201.

Sincerely,

Lucy Dahl

March Kimmel

Spyglass Cedar Creek, LP

1919 NW Loop 410, Suite 200

San Antonio, TX 78213

Dear Mr. Kimmel:

Spyglass Cedar Creek, LP is the operator of record of forty (40) wells in South Dakota and as such, is responsible

for the maintenance of the wells and ensuring they are in compliance with the Administrative Rules of South Dakota

(ARSD 74:12). All forty wells are out of compliance. We have made several unsuccessful attempts to contact you in

regard to these issues over the past two years and were forced to recover your surface restoration bond from the

Texas unclaimed properties department.

On February 16 and August 23, 2012, I sent you letters warning Spyglass Cedar Creek to bring certain of its Harding

County wells into compliance by temporarily abandoning the wells. On June 6, 2012, I sent you a letter outlining

well site problems documented during routine inspections. In September, 2013, department inspectors documented

weed control and equipment cleanup problems at 14 Spyglass well sites.

The 40 wells listed in the table below have not produced since July, 2012. Therefore, Spyglass must either

temporarily abandon (TA) the wells, return the wells to production, or permanently plug and abandon the wells.

ARSD 74:12:03:03 requires operators to obtain written approval from the secretary for the temporary abandonment

of a well. A successful mechanical integrity test (MIT) must be conducted before temporary abandonment status will

be approved for any Spyglass well. Notify us in advance of any MIT’s so we can have an inspector on site to verify

results. If you intend to temporarily abandon these wells, you must file a sundry notice including a request for such

status and information on the current condition of each well. If you intend to plug any of these wells, a plugging plan

must be submitted for approval.

On March 13, 2014 a follow up inspection was performed on the 5-26 Gilbert, to confirm a leak from this well had

been properly fixed. Pursuant to ARSD 74:12:04:11 a written follow-up report is required and must include any

procedures used to remedy the situation. A very small leak still exists on this well and should be monitored.

The well site problems identified in 2012-2014 are listed in the table below. See South Dakota’s Oil and Gas Map-

Based Data Source at http://www.sdgs.usd.edu/sdoil/oilgas_app.html to access inspection reports for details

regarding how these well sites fail to comply with the interim reclamation requirements of ARSD 74:12:03:07.

Failure to bring all 40 of Spyglass Cedar Creek’s Harding County wells into compliance by requesting temporary

abandonment (TA) of the wells and addressing well site reclamation problems may result in enforcement action.

Possible enforcement actions the DENR may pursue include requiring Spyglass Cedar Creek to permanently plug

and abandon all wells, permit revocation pursuant to SDCL 45-9-73, monetary penalties up to $500 per day per

violation, and/or filing a claim against Spyglass Cedar Creek for costs associated with plugging, removal of

equipment, and surface restoration. You must respond by April 21, 2014 with a plan outlining how and when you

intend to bring wells into compliance with ARSD 74:12 in order to avoid possible enforcement action.

It has also come to our attention that Max Main is no longer your attorney or resident agent. Spyglass must designate

a new resident agent through the South Dakota Secretary of State’s office.

If you have any questions or concerns you would like to discuss, please feel free to contact me at 605.773.4201.

Thank you for your attention to these issues.

August 23, 2012 March Kimmel Spyglass Cedar Creek, LP 110 Broadway, Ste. 215 San Antonio, TX 78205 Dear Mr. Kimmel: On February 16, 2012, I sent you a letter concerning the status of wells operated by Spyglass Cedar Creek, LP. that are located in Harding County, South Dakota. The wells listed in the table below have not produced for six months or more and must have their status addressed. There is no file documentation indicating that temporary abandonment was requested or approved. By ARSD 74:12:03:03, wells cannot be temporarily abandoned without approval. Assuming there are no mechanical integrity issues with the well, temporary abandonment will be approved for a period of one year unless a successful mechanical integrity test (MIT) is completed. Upon completion of a successful MIT, temporary abandonment will be granted for five years. If you intend to temporarily abandon these wells, please file a sundry notice including a request for such status and information on the current condition of each well. The alternatives are to return a well to production or plug and abandon the well. If you intend to plug any of these wells, a plugging plan should be submitted for approval.
