Proposed Project: CalNRG proposes to rework State PRC 1121 (04-111-22117) located in the Montalvo West Oil Field in Ventura County, California. This well was drilled and completed as a producer in 1956 and is currently active. The well is located within an established oilfield boundary, on a well-maintained existing well pad, and a well-maintained access road. Proposed project execution will require no new disturbance. No changes to the existing infrastructure will take place. The job will require approximately 10 to 15 days to complete. Produced water will be utilized for all well work by way of existing lines from the facilities to the well and fresh water will be transported in for cement blending. No new facilities are needed. Environmental Setting: Established oil field. Environmentally sensitive as they meet the definition of being within the Coastal Zone, or less than 1000 yards from the ocean. The surrounding land use around the proposed project consists of a developed oil field. Potential Environmental Impacts: Operation of the wells has been subject to all provisions of Senate Bill 1137 for existing wells located within designated health protection zones since June 2024 and would continue to operate in accordance with these regulations. Therefore, no unusual circumstances exist that would present a reasonable possibility of significant environmental effects. No vegetation will be disturbed by this project. There will be no increase in either the number or the capacity of flowlines. The proposed project consists of the California Department of Conservation, Geologic Energy Management Division (CalGEM) approving 1 permit for CalNRG Operating, LLC to rework the well(s) listed below, in the West Montalvo Oil Field. API # 0411122117 Well Name State PRC 1121 Exempt Status: As the Lead Agency, CalGEM has determined that the proposed project is exempt from full environmental review requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), pursuant to the specified exemptions marked in the section below. CalGEM further finds that the proposed project would not result in a significant adverse impact to the environment, or that any of the exceptions to the application of the exemptions apply (14 CCR § 15300.2).
