There are two types of Allegheny Pennsylvania Oil and Gas Producing Properties Environmental Assessment Checklists: 1. Pre-operational Checklist: This checklist is completed before the commencement of any oil and gas operations in the Allegheny region. It focuses on evaluating potential environmental risks and impacts associated with proposed projects. The checklist covers factors such as site selection, water usage, waste management, air emissions, and community engagement. By conducting this assessment prior to the project initiation, any necessary mitigation measures can be identified and implemented to minimize environmental harm. 2. Post-Operation Checklist: This checklist is performed after the completion of oil and gas operations. It assesses the actual environmental impact of the project, providing an evaluation of the effectiveness of mitigation measures that were implemented during the operation phase. The post-operation checklist addresses aspects such as land reclamation, restoration of affected ecosystems, waste disposal practices, and adherence to regulatory requirements. It ensures that the oil and gas operations have met the necessary environmental standards and have effectively mitigated potential negative impacts.
