Comments
Disposal well approvals for non-H 2 S gas
injection issued in advance of Directive 051
requirements being met will contain a clause
requiring that the Directive 051 information
be submitted within three months of the
approval’s issue date. If three months is
not sufficient time to meet the Directive 051
requirements, you must request an extension.
If the Directive 051 requirements are not
submitted within the three months or other
approved time frame, ERCB staff will
rescind the approval or portion pertaining to

submission requirements and the disposal
approval process, see General Bulletin (GB)
