Farmington Field Office Scheduled Onsite Inspections

What are Onsite Inspections?

Before approval of an application for permit to drill  (APD), an onsite inspection will be conducted with the operator to further identify site-specific resource protection concerns and requirements.  Prior to, or in conjunction with, the onsite inspection, the surface management agency will advise the operator if any special inventories or studies are required, such as for cultural resources or threatened and endangered species.

The BLM has scheduled an onsite visit for the Canyon Largo Unit (CLU) 2407 Project on May 14, 2025.
 
Hilcorp Energy Company proposes the construction of the CLU 2407 well pad and the drilling of two proposed oil and gas wells and six future wells. The new well pad would be 8.09 acres in size and would overlap the existing County Road 503, eliminating the need for the construction of a new access road. One new buried gas pipeline, 830' in length, is proposed to connect the new wells to an existing Enterprise line. On the proposed pad, the CLU 2408-03F water supply well would be drilled. Hilcorp would place above-ground storage tanks on the pad for water storage. Additionally, Hilcorp has proposed an access route to the well pad from US Hwy 550. 
 
Meeting Location: Attendees should meet at the Sinclair Gas Station on US Hwy 550 (36.242662, -107.703593), also known as the 44 Store, at 9 a.m. We will then proceed to the project location as a group.
