Annotation: This report briefly summarizes the reports of various consultants and agencies related to the 2004 West Divide Creek seep and the East Mamm Creek gasfield. The seep generated a decade-long series of studies related to the cause of the seep, impacts to water resources and how the State of Colorado could improve the drilling and completion practices for gas wells in the Mamm Creek field area. The aim of this report is to summarize the data and results from those studies and integrate the results to focus on what knowledge we have gained about the interactions of petroleum activities and groundwater quality.
