GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
GENERAL: This form is designed for submitting a complete and accurate geothermal well completion report, and must be accompanied
by a detailed chronological history of well operations as well as the final copies of the results of any logs, surveys or tests performed on
the well that have not previously been submitted. The report must be submitted within 30 days after the date of completion of continuous
well activities as determined by the BLM. The completion date usually is the day that the well became producible; generally the date of
initial production test. The BLM may postpone the required report submittal date if adequate justification is presented by the lessee.

SPECIFIC INSTRUCTIONS
Item 18: Show the surface location coordinates from the nearest section corner or tract line. Show production zone and total depth
coordinates from the surface location if the well is directionally drilled.
Item 34: If the well is immediately placed into operation without testing, this section should reflect the first month's production data.
Items 35 & 36: Indicate the depth(s) of subsurface pressure, temperature measurement, and include the reference datum.

NOTICES

The Privacy Act of 1974 and 43 CFR 2.48(d) require that you be furnished the following information:
AUTHORITY: 30 U.S.C. 1001-1028; 43 CFR Part 3200.
PRINCIPAL PURPOSE: The BLM uses this information to evaluate the technical, safety, and environmental factors involved with

transferred to appropriate Federal, State, local or foreign agencies, when relevant to civil, criminal or regulatory investigations or

EFFECT OF NOT PROVIDING INFORMATION: Disclosure of the information is required to seek approval of geothermal drilling
operations. If all the information is not provided, geothermal drilling operations might not be approved.
The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 requires us to inform you that:
The BLM collects this information to evaluate the technical, safety, and environmental factors involved with geothermal resources on
Federal geothermal leases.

the time for reviewing instructions, gathering and maintaining data and completing and reviewing the form. Direct comments regarding
the burden estimate or any other aspect of this form to U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management (1004-0132),
