<p>If a seismic event of 0.5ML, or greater, on the ‘Richter Local Scale’ is detected
and causally linked to the operations, hydraulic fracturing is suspended for a minimum
of 18 hours. An event report must be submitted to and independently reviewed by each
of the regulatory bodies who will only allow operations to recommence once they have
fully assessed the information and are satisfied the event conforms to the pre-agreed
Hydraulic Fracture Plan.</p><p> </p><p>Within 30 days of completion of all hydraulic
fracturing operations at a well, a Hydraulic Fracturing Operations Report must be
submitted to the Oil and Gas Authority (OGA) by the operator. The OGA will publish
these reports six months after receipt.</p>
