The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Risk Management Center (RMC) developed the RMC Hydraulic Fracturing Initiation Toolbox to support hydraulic fracturing potential analysis required by ER 1110-1-1807 for Drilling and Invasive Program Plans (DIPPs). The toolbox applies to drilling fluids and borehole grout backfill, not water pressure testing and pressure grouting. It does not apply to all possible scenarios. The information from the toolbox (if applicable), along with other pertinent information, informs judgment when developing DIPPs.
