Title: |
Water Contaminants Removal in Multi-Well Pits |
Text: |
"2. Operator's Pit Practices within the County. d. Multi-Well Pits: ... Fluids stored in multi-well pits will be circulated through a four-phase separator or an API-approved settling tank or similar equipment prior to such fluids entering the pit, specifically designed to remove solids and reduce hydrocarbon content and emissions. Retention time in a settling tank and the volume of the tank must be sufficient to separate out any floating, dissolved, or emulsified hydrocarbon phases." |
