As part of a surface use agreement between Antero Resources and Battlement Mesa Partners, a comprehensive dust mitigation strategy was implemented to reduce particulate emissions and environmental disturbance during natural gas development. The agreement outlined the use of Soiltac, a copolymer emulsion manufactured by Soilworks, and other liquid dust suppressants on access roads and well pads. Additional mitigation measures included gravel surfacing, low-impact lighting, and visual buffers such as berms and vegetation. These best management practices were designed to minimize dust, noise, odor, and visual impact across 11 identified development locations within the Planned Unit Development (PUD).
Soiltac’s application on unpaved roads and drill pad surfaces supports community and regulatory concerns by forming a clear, durable surface crust that binds loose soils, reduces vehicle-borne dust, and withstands weather exposure. Its non-toxic and non-leaching chemistry makes it ideal for use in residential-adjacent energy development projects where air quality, public health, and environmental stewardship are priorities. For energy developers, environmental managers, and municipal stakeholders operating in master-planned or community-sensitive zones, Soilworks provides scalable, compliance-ready solutions for dust and erosion control.
