The project involves the rework of well 88N-33S (API #0403017794) in the Elk Hills Oil Field, Kern County, California, by California Resources Elk Hills, LLC, to enhance well performance through targeted intervention techniques. Activities include running logs, selective squeezing, adding new perforations, acidizing, installing a plug below the perforation interval, and running a liner, all conducted in full compliance with California Department of Conservation, Geologic Energy Management Division (CalGEM) regulations. No new surface disturbance or permanent facilities will be created, and temporary equipment such as a workover rig, pumps, return bins, and transport vehicles will be used solely for the duration of operations. All waste materials generated will be handled and disposed of in accordance with applicable environmental laws. The project is exempt from full review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to categorical exemptions 14 CCR §§ 15301, 15302, and 15304, which classify the work as maintenance, replacement, or minor land alteration to an existing facility. Acceptance and inspection occur at the well site, with CalGEM serving as the oversight authority to ensure compliance with operational and environmental standards. Though the work is permitted under existing UIC project identifiers, no pricing, contract value, payment terms, accounting codes, invoicing instructions, or FAR-based clauses are included in the documentation, indicating this is a regulatory permit and environmental exemption notice rather than a traditional federal procurement contract. There are no specified performance periods, delivery schedules, FOB terms, key personnel requirements, security clearances, or subcontracting provisions, and no formal solicitation, contract number, or award mechanism is established, reinforcing the nature of the action as a state-regulated operational approval rather than a competitive or financially defined procurement.
