Item 8.01 Other Events.

In response to the U.S. Coast Guard recently making statements to certain media outlets that it has not given the Company clearance to ship wastewater by barge along the Ohio River, the Company states that on October 2, 2014, the Company received a letter from Mr. R.V. Timme, Captain in the U.S. Coast Guard, providing specifically that for any cargo that contains Oil Field Waste, the cargo must be transported in accordance with Navigation and Inspection Circular (NVIC) 7-87. One of the definitions of Oil Field Waste contained in NVIC 7-87 is “Salt water (produced brine or produced water). May contain oil”.

Any and all cargo to be transported by the Company on the Ohio River will be cargo classified as “Oil Field Waste” as defined by NVIC 7-87 and other applicable regulations and not as “Shale Gas Extraction Wastewater”. “Oil Field Waste” is what the Company handles on a daily basis in regards to transportation and disposal at its various SWD facilities.
