Rule 37 Case No. 0267504, Barnes Assembly A Well 3H, API # 113-30193

TO THE HONORABLE RAILROAD COMMISSION OF TEXAS: We now proceed to address Items I- V in the Reply to the Motion for Rehearing from Chesapeake Operating, Inc. (dated November 22, 2011) I: Introduction: The Reply to the Motion for Rehearing is without merit and so with this response we now enter our response to Chesapeake Operating, Inc.s Reply to the Motion for Rehearing in the above-referenced case. Kristi (Chance) Bradleys representatives (certain named and unnamed members of the North Central Texas Communities Alliance) were clearly delineated as representing her as indicated on the Notice of Intent to Appear dated January 31, 2011. (See Exhibit A, Page 2 ~ above Print Name.) Louis McBee, or Gary Hogan, or Esther McElfish or the North Central Texas Communities Alliance Westchester-Grand Prairie Community Alliance members (Susan Read, Rosemary Reed and Clayton Newsome) are unnamed as (or) and are dues-paying, active members of the North Central Texas Communities Alliance.

Rule 37 Case No. 0267504, Barnes Assembly A Well 3H, API # 113-30193

II. Certain Grand Prairie, TX members of the North Central Texas Communities Alliance (Susan Read, Rosemary Reed and Clayton Newsome) were handdelivering Kristi (Chance) Bradleys Notice of Intent to Appear on the day of the Tuesday, February 1, 2011 Hearing in the above-referenced case. The blizzard conditions (as noted in the December 13, 2011 Motion for Rehearing) were beyond any that North Texans have experienced before on Texas roads. The ensuing wreck could have been catastrophic. The Acura driven by Mr. Newsome was totaled. (Please see the Transcript of the Proceedings, Page 12). (Exhibit B) The opportunity for additional members of the North Central Texas Communities Alliance to stand in for Mrs. Bradley (A Registered Nurse unable to attend because of her work requirements) was not possible because of the wreck. Examiner Enquist does not mention Mrs. Bradley as being represented by Mr. McBee during the hearing. (See Exhibit B, Page 12). The Notice of Intent to Appear Form was not Faxed in on February 1, 2011 due to: a) the Closure of Businesses (for 3 days in many cases); b) No Access to a Fax Machine; and c) No Access to Travel. The Notice of Intent to Appear was faxed in to the Railroad Commission on Saturday, February 5, 2011 (See Exhibit A, Page 1~ date stamped, top left of the page from Ship n Mail) . The Notice of Intent to Appear was not uploaded to the Railroad Commissions Web site until February 7, 2011 (See the Railroad Commission Web site for the uploaded documents in this case ~ API #113-30193.)

Rule 37 Case No. 0267504, Barnes Assembly A Well 3H, API # 113-30193 III. Postponement of the Hearing. A Motion for Continuance was not offered as an Option during the proceedings (See the Transcript). (As noted in the Motion for Rehearing dated December 13, 2011, we are not attorneys and as such, required some guidance from the Commission on this issue.) The parties involved in the wreck, representing the North Central Texas Communities Alliance and the Westchester-Grand Prairie Community Alliance, were going to stand in for Kristi (Chance) Bradley and were hand-delivering Ms. Bradleys Notice of Intent to Appear. Had others from our community been caught in the storm, the ruling would have gone in Chesapeakes favor. It appears that Chesapeake was not expecting anyone to attend since they had to request a transcriber and that was one reason given by the Examiner as to a delay to the start time. As noted in the February 1, 2011 Transcript, (Exhibit C, Pages 9-10). IV. I, Kristi (Chance) Bradley seek an opportunity to present my own argument to the Commission: Kristi (Chance) Bradley was not represented during the February 1, 2011 Hearing in Austin, Texas. Kristi (Chance) Bradley was not included in the correspondence leading up to the PFD on November 22, 2011. Mr. McBee did not represent Mrs. Bradley on February 1, 2011. Irregularities in the drilling, perforation and fraccing of Barnes Assembly A Well 3H, API # 113-30193 have been discovered. In fact, as Exhibit D shows, completion paperwork (Certificate of Compliance and a Poorly Drawn Plat) for this well was filed with the Railroad Commission on October 27, 2011. This well was completed and producing as of May 22, 2011 according to Exhibit D as well. This Completion and Production of a wellbore under Legal Examination is of serious concern to the Community including Kristi (Chance) Bradley and Billie S. Harris. In fact, this wellbore (apparently at a shorter lateral location we are told) was in production as of May, 2011 ~ again, prior to a PFD from the Railroad Commissioners. Continuation of work (including completion and production) on a well undergoing a Legal Examination and/or a Rule 37 Spacing Exception Ruling is very Irregular and needs serious clarification from the Texas Railroad Commission. As such, a Rehearing is requested. Page 3 (Continue to Page 4, Please.)

V. Conclusion: I, Kristi (Chance) Bradley and I, Billie S. Harris, bring serious allegations of errors in this Case as provided in Items I-IV in the above-referenced case. I, Kristi (Chance) Bradley should have had standing during the February 1, 2011 Hearing but did not because my representatives representing the North Central Texas Communities Alliance along with the Westchester-Grand Prairie Community Alliance, Susan Read, Rosemary Reed and Clayton Newsome were involved in a serious accident enroute to the Hearing that morning. My Notice of Intent to Appear was being Hand-Delivered, to Austin, Texas by these individuals. They are not attorneys but were bringing my arguments in Case No. 0267504 to the Legal Examination for consideration. WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, Kristi (Chance) Bradley and Billie S. Harris, pray that the Railroad Commission of Texas grant the Motion for Rehearing filed December 13, 2011. Respectfully submitted,
