Northeastern's deep well facility has been issued an Underground Injection Permit (UIC) from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and a Mineral Well Permit from the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality (MDEQ). Routine inspections and testing are performed by both the MDEQ and EPA to ensure safety and environmental protection. Northeastern has made a commitment to maintain the deep well and surface facility to the highest standards and to meet all regulatory requirements.
For commercial disposal at Northeastern Exploration, Inc., liquid wastes must be documented by a certified laboratory as non-hazardous for both Federal and Michigan State standards of ignitability, corrosivity, reactivity and toxicity. The waste may not be listed on the F, K, P or U register of hazardous sources. Properly licensed non-hazardous waste hauling vehicles including vacuum trucks, tankers, and transports will be accepted for off-loading. No individual barrels or small bulk liquid containers are accepted at the facility. There is a minimum disposal charge for loads with 1,000 gallons or less. Typically, waste water cannot have more than 2.5% total suspended solids (TSS) or 200,000 ppm total dissolved solids (TDS). Waste water must be filterable through a 100 micron filter. If the waste can be certified as non-hazardous, only traces of oil are allowed. Every generator and waste water source must be pre-approved before Northeastern will accept a transport at the facility. A Waste Manifest Form and Generator Certification Form (located under Waste Disposal) must be completed prior to shipping liquid waste to our facility.
