SAN JUAN 30-6 UNIT 85A NO4085

San Juan 30-6 Unit 85A No4085 is a single-well upstream oil and gas production facility (NAICS 211111) operating in the San Juan Basin near Navajo Dam, New Mexico. EPA ECHO records the facility under registry ID 110038525389 with zero formal quarterly noncompliance counts in the trailing 24 months, zero active NPDES or Title V permits on file, and an imputed penalty allocation of $3,760,000 derived from the ECHO exporter's 60-to-24-month proration formula [source: https://echo.epa.gov/files/echodownloads/echo_exporter.zip]. That dollar figure demands a careful read. The derivation note in the ECHO summary specifies the calculation — `penalty_24mo=total_5yr*(24/60)` — meaning the amount reflects a pro-rata share of a five-year penalty total rather than a discrete 24-month adjudicated penalty [source: https://echo.epa.gov/files/echodownloads/echo_exporter.zip]. Forty percent of a longer-window total, in other words, not a standalone settlement.

The operator is privately held. No SEC CIK is associated with the asset, and no 10-K or 10-Q filings were returned in the research bundle. No sustainability report was recovered for the well operator, and no NGO litigation surface or state enforcement docket hits were returned for this specific lease. Basin context comes from two adjacent regulatory records: New Mexico Environment Department (NMED) Ground Water Quality Bureau documentation of the nearby San Juan Generating Station remediation in San Juan County, effective January 31, 2025 [source: https://service.web.env.nm.gov/urls/NURGpWdn], and EPA Title V permit history for the same airshed [source: https://19january2021snapshot.epa.gov/sites/static/files/2015-08/documents/san_juan_response2010.pdf]. Neither record pertains directly to Unit 85A No4085, but both establish the regulatory texture of the county. Peer benchmarking against three same-NAICS upstream assets shows this facility's imputed penalty total sitting materially below the peer leaders [source: https://echo.epa.gov/files/echodownloads/echo_exporter.zip].

The ECHO snapshot dated 2026-05-04 records one facility under FRS ID 110038525389, zero quarters with reported noncompliance across the trailing eight quarters, zero active permits of record, and no pollutant loadings listed in the top_pollutants array [source: https://echo.epa.gov/files/echodownloads/echo_exporter.zip]. The `latest_permit_date` field is empty. For an upstream wellhead in New Mexico, that gap typically signals that air emissions are covered under a statewide general permit administered by the NMED Air Quality Bureau rather than a facility-specific Title V permit, and that produced-water handling falls under Oil Conservation Division rules rather than an individual NPDES permit. No federal RCRA large-quantity generator status, no CWA direct-discharge permit, and no CAA Title V major-source designation appear in the ECHO return for this FRS ID [source: https://echo.epa.gov/files/echodownloads/echo_exporter.zip].

The 24-month chronology anchors to the ECHO exporter run of 2026-05-04 [source: https://echo.epa.gov/files/echodownloads/echo_exporter.zip]. During that window, no quarterly noncompliance events were logged against this facility ID. The $3.76 million figure in `penalty_total_24mo` is an arithmetic allocation of a five-year informal and formal action total; it should not be read as a single adjudicated settlement against this wellpad. ECHO's own derivation note makes the methodology explicit [source: https://echo.epa.gov/files/echodownloads/echo_exporter.zip]. Regional regulatory activity during the same window included continued NMED oversight of the decommissioned San Juan Generating Station under a Public Involvement Plan effective January 31, 2025, which documents ongoing environmental site assessment and remediation plan development in the same county [source: https://service.web.env.nm.gov/urls/NURGpWdn].

No sustainability report was identified for the well operator. Searches returned only unrelated entities sharing the "San Juan" toponym — SANJO Group industrial manufacturing [source: https://sanjogroup.com/sustainability/], the San Juan Cruise Port in Puerto Rico [source: https://sanjuancruiseport.com/social-responsibility/], and Fairmont El San Juan Hotel [source: https://www.fairmont.com/ar/hotels/puerto-rico/fairmont-el-san-juan-hotel/sustainability.html]. No news coverage in the trailing 30 or 365 days mentioned this wellpad by name. NGO litigation surface searches returned zero facility-specific hits. Historical federal CAA enforcement in adjacent jurisdictions includes the 1996 consent decree in United States v. San Juan Cement Company (D.P.R., Civ. Action No. 96-1381 DRD), a separate entity in Puerto Rico cited here only to establish that the "San Juan" name space is noisy for automated document retrieval [source: https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-1996-07-30/html/96-19284.htm]. The petition-to-object record for the San Juan Generating Station Title V permit establishes the CAA framework under which large stationary sources in San Juan County operate but does not pertain to Unit 85A No4085 [source: https://19january2021snapshot.epa.gov/sites/static/files/2015-08/documents/san_juan_response2010.pdf].

No discrete enforcement actions against FRS ID 110038525389 surfaced in the research bundle for the 24 months preceding the 2026-05-04 ECHO pull. ECHO returns `violation_count_24mo: 0` and no entries in its formal or informal action arrays for this facility [source: https://echo.epa.gov/files/echodownloads/echo_exporter.zip]. The `penalty_total_24mo` value of $3,760,000 is a derived pro-rata figure per the exporter methodology `penalty_24mo=total_5yr*(24/60)`, implying an underlying 60-month penalty total of approximately $9,400,000 allocated through ECHO's standard proration. The research bundle does not include the discrete case docket, settlement agreement, or administrative order that generated the five-year total [source: https://echo.epa.gov/files/echodownloads/echo_exporter.zip]. Users building an enforcement file on this asset should retrieve the ECHO Detailed Facility Report for registry ID 110038525389 directly to pull the underlying CASE_NUMBER, STATUTE, and SETTLEMENT_ENTERED_DATE fields before citing the dollar figure as an adjudicated penalty.

No CWA Section 309, CAA Section 113, or RCRA Section 3008 action references were returned. No CourtListener or PACER hits for this specific wellpad surfaced in the Exa neural-search pull. The only federal court record returned in the name space was the 1996 D.P.R. San Juan Cement consent decree, which is unrelated to the Navajo Dam asset [source: https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-1996-07-30/html/96-19284.htm]. No FTC action against the operator was identified; the San Juan IPA FTC matter returned in the neural search is an unrelated medical professional association [source: https://www.ftc.gov/system/files/ftc_gov/pdf/Motion%20for%20Entry%20of%20Judgment%20filed.pdf].

San Juan 30-6 Unit 85A No4085 (FRS 110038525389), Navajo Dam, San Juan County, New Mexico — the sole facility in scope. ECHO reports `facility_count: 1`, `ej_index_avg: 0.0`, `active_permits_count: 0`, and an empty `top_pollutants` array [source: https://echo.epa.gov/files/echodownloads/echo_exporter.zip]. The zero EJ index warrants a methodological note. It is a data-absence signal rather than an affirmative finding of low environmental justice exposure. NAICS 211111 wellpads on federal and allotted lands in the San Juan Basin frequently lack complete EJScreen demographic overlays because the Census block groups are sparsely populated and the facility geometry is a single point — conditions that produce null or zero returns in the exporter regardless of actual community exposure. Adjacent context from the NMED Ground Water Quality Bureau Public Involvement Plan for the San Juan Generating Station, effective January 31, 2025, establishes that San Juan County has ongoing active groundwater remediation oversight associated with other industrial sources in the same airshed and watershed [source: https://service.web.env.nm.gov/urls/NURGpWdn]. No additional facilities are associated with this slug in the ECHO return.

The ECHO exporter returns an empty `top_pollutants` array for FRS 110038525389 [source: https://echo.epa.gov/files/echodownloads/echo_exporter.zip]. That absence reflects reporting-threshold mechanics, not a finding that the wellpad emits nothing. NAICS 211111 crude petroleum and natural gas extraction facilities in the San Juan Basin typically release methane (CH4) and volatile organic compounds — benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylenes — through pneumatic devices, storage tank flashing, and dehydrator vents. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) appears where sour gas is present. Nitrogen oxides (NOx) from compressor engines and flares add to the airshed load. None of these appear in ECHO's Toxic Release Inventory return for this specific wellpad because individual wellpads fall below TRI reporting thresholds and because methane is not a TRI-listed chemical.

Groundwater exposure pathways in San Juan County are documented in the NMED Public Involvement Plan for the San Juan Generating Station, which identifies shallow alluvial aquifer contamination as the primary remediation driver for industrial activity in the area [source: https://service.web.env.nm.gov/urls/NURGpWdn]. CAA Title V permitting context for the county is on record through the EPA Administrator's order responding to the petition to object to the San Juan Generating Station Title V permit [source: https://19january2021snapshot.epa.gov/sites/static/files/2015-08/documents/san_juan_response2010.pdf]. Environmental justice framing for the Albuquerque metropolitan and northwestern New Mexico context is summarized in the SouthWest Organizing Project materials archived by the Albuquerque Historical Society [source: https://albuqhistsoc.org/aes/s5enjus.html].

Within the upstream oil-and-gas NAICS cohort (211111/211120/211130), San Juan 30-6 Unit 85A No4085's imputed 24-month penalty of $3.76M places it well below the top three peers returned by the ECHO cohort query. Greka Bell Compressor Plant carries $26.2M. Red Hills Gas Processing Plant follows at $19.1M, and HP Gas Pad sits at $16.1M [source: https://echo.epa.gov/files/echodownloads/echo_exporter.zip]. The violation-count picture is equally instructive. The subject facility records zero quarters of noncompliance. Red Hills and HP Gas Pad each log eight, while Greka Bell matches the subject at zero [source: https://echo.epa.gov/files/echodownloads/echo_exporter.zip]. All four records show `ej_index_avg: 0.0`, consistent with the thin EJScreen overlay common to single-point upstream assets in sparsely populated basins — a data-coverage artifact rather than a substantive environmental justice finding [source: https://echo.epa.gov/files/echodownloads/echo_exporter.zip].

No SEC Item 1A disclosure is available. The operator is privately held with no CIK on file, and the research bundle contains no 10-K, 10-Q, or S-1 equivalent [source: https://echo.epa.gov/files/echodownloads/echo_exporter.zip]. Forward-looking environmental risk for a single upstream wellpad in the San Juan Basin is shaped by several regulatory vectors. New Mexico's Ozone Attainment Initiative imposes VOC and NOx controls on counties exceeding 95% of the federal ozone standard. BLM methane waste-prevention rulemaking on federal minerals adds a second layer of potential compliance cost. NMED Oil Conservation Division produced-water disposal rules constitute a third. None of these are quantified for this specific asset in the bundle. Regional remediation precedent is on record through the NMED action against the San Juan Generating Station, effective January 31, 2025 [source: https://service.web.env.nm.gov/urls/NURGpWdn].
