• On August 31, the ERCB notified Lionhead Engineering that the downhole operations have been reviewed. The ERCB has indicated the well has been satisfactorily abandoned.
• On September 8, the well was tested for the presence of gas. No gas was detected in the well. Tests were also conducted to determine if any gas was seeping through the ground near the well head. No gas was detected. The tests were witnessed by representatives from the ERCB.

• The well has been cleaned out to the planned casing set depth. Casing will be installed August 18 and cemented to surface.
• A caliper log indicated multiple sections of old casing are in the well. This resulted in the difficulty of cleaning out the well.
