PROPOSED WELL PAD REMOVAL, RELOCATION OF PROPOSED LEACHING PLANT AND AN ADDITIONAL ACCESS ROAD TO DRILL AND OPERATE NEW BRINE FACILITIES AT THE GRAND BAYOU SALT DOME FACILITY IN ASSUMPTION PARISH

NAME OF APPLICANT: EnLink Processing Services, LLC, c/o GEOSYNTEC Consultants, Attn: Mr. Spencer Varnado, 5420 Corporate Blvd., Suite 202, Baton Rouge, Louisiana 70808.

LOCATION OF WORK: In Assumption Parish, North 30.015097, West -91.136514, approximately 0.1 mile south of the intersection of Louisiana Highway 69 & 70, near Grand Bayou, Louisiana, in hydrologic unit (HUC 08090302, West Central Louisiana Coastal), as shown on the attached drawings.

CHARACTER OF WORK: The applicant has requested a Department of the Army authorization to conduct modifications on a previously authorized brine facility. The modifications will entail the removal of Well #4 from the project, relocation of the proposed leaching plant, add a new permanent access road to connect to Louisiana Highway 70, add a new saltwater disposal well (SWD), and construct an approximately 0.25-mile pipeline to connect to the SWD well. The work will also include the deposition of approximately 41,000 cubic yards of sand material and approximately 8,220 cubic yards of crushed stone.

A preliminary analysis of these proposed modifications will result in a decrease in permanent impacts from the previously authorized 6.18 acres to a new permanent impact of approximately 5.76 acres.

MITIGATION: The applicant states that the proposed project has been designed to avoid and minimize direct and secondary adverse impacts to the maximum extent practicable. Any further reduction in the project footprint would limit usage of the property and, therefore function deeming the project impracticable. The permit modification has reduced the onsite permanent impacts by 0.42 of an acre, from what was originally mitigated for, therefore, no additional mitigation will be required for the proposed work.
