Approximately 3 miles north of the Town of Parachute on County Road 215 in the NW X SE X of Section 34, Township 6 South , Range 96 West, 6th PM, Garfield County Access to the property will be from County Road 215 Approximately 861 acre parcel Resource Lands -Gentle Slopes I Resource Lands I. REQUEST I DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSAL Encana Oil and Gas (USA), Inc. (Applicant) requests a modification to Condition No . 8 of Resolution 2008-49 (see Exhibit G) to allow an approved temporary employee office to continue the use of temporary potable water and wastewater systems for an additional five (5) years . Presently, Condition 8 reads as follows : "The max imum allowable time length of the Special Use Permit for Temporary Employee Office is one (2) years. Should the use ex ceed the two year periQd, the owner shall be required to install more permanent water/wastewater services such as we/ls and /SOS." American Soda, LLP (a subsidiary of Solvay Chemicals, Inc.) is the property owner of the subject parcel and leases the temporary employee office to the Applicant. The site is located approximately three miles north of the Town of Parachute on County Road 215 (CR 215). Resolution 2008-49 approved a 42 ' x 60 ' temporary employee office which is located -in the north parking lot of the American Soda property. This building contains office space, a kitchen, bathrooms, conference room, and storage. This office is used by the Applicant for their employees working in the oil and gas industry in the area. 1 ., In 2008, the Applicant requested a SUP for a temporary employee office for a period not to exceed two years. This application also proposed a vault and haul scenario for water and wastewater. This SUP was approved by the Board of County Commissioners (BOCC) in April 2008. At the time of the application in 2008, the Applicant was investigating the construction of a new office complex. However, with the downturn of the economy this option became no longer viable. The Applicant has indicated that there still is a need for the temporary employee office and that they wish to continue to occupy the temporary modular for another five years in its current state. Encana investigated installing permanent water and wastewater systems such as drilling a well and connecting into the Town of Parachute's water and sewer lines. The Applicant states that these options were not viable since .American Soda will not allow the drilling of a well and that there is "no accessibility to tie into city water and sewer." The Town of Parachute's water and sewer lines terminate at 1058 CR 215, requiring these services to ,be extended approximately two miles north to the employee office. Potable water is hauled to the site by an approved hauler and placed in a potable water storage tank situated to the north of the office building (see Site Plan). Bottled water is also used. As per Resolution No. 2008-49, the facility must have a water storage tank with a minimum total capacity of 4,500 gallons. Wastewater is stored in a tank and hauled by a state certified hauler from the site every three to five days unless needed on a more frequent basis. As per Resolution No. 2008-49, the facility must have a minimum total capacity of 4,500 gallons of sewage and wastewater storage. A permit was issued by Garfield County for a septic vault and haul disposal system (see Exhibit 0). The existing wastewater/sewage tank is located to the south of the office building (see Site Plan). -1 aa _l ~ 4 I L- 1·1 Parachut a LOCATION MAP 2 ---3JL I 31 T"' ~ ' II. SITE DESCRIPTION The property is located approximately three miles north of the Town of Parachute on CR 215 in Section 34, Township 6 South, Range 96 West. The extsting temporary office is located on the north end of the existing paved parking lot and is allowed to house up to 19 occupants (see Exhibit G). The subject parcel is zoned Resource Lands -Gentle Slopes. Presently, a vault and haul water and wastewater system is use and are located north and south of the building, respectively. Water and wastewater tanks are screened and not visible from the parking lot or office building. Access to the office is by the American Soda's main entrance on CR 215.

REVIEW AGENCY AND OTHER COMMENTS Comments have been received from the following agencies I community groups and are integrated throughout this memorandum as applicable. 1. Town of Parachute: No comments received. 2. Garfield County Road and Bridge Department: This department doesn't have ·any objections to this application or concerns with traffic impacts or volumes (see Exhibit H). 3. Grand Valley Fire Protection District: This agency has no objections (see Exhibit I). 3 4. Colorado Department of Transportation: This agency has no comments on this application (see Exhibit K). 5. Garfield County Environmental Health: This department indicated that if managed properly and in accordance with applicable conditions, regulations etc., these systems can be used to effectively provide water and wastewater services to temporary buildings. I don't have enough information to be able to say that these systems have been managed in accordance with the required conditions of Resolution 2008-49. Therefore, I cannot make a recommendation for or against this proposal. More discussion is also needed as to what constitutes a temporary facility (see Exhibit J). IV. DISCUSSION The Applicant, Encana Oil and Gas (USA) Inc., is requesting Garfield County to amend Condition No. 8 of Resolution 2008-49 to allow the approved temporary employee office located on property owned by American Soda, LLP to continue the use of temporary potable water and wastewater systems for another five (5) years. Approval of this Land Use Change Permit requires submittal of a SUP Amendment application and supporting materials. The existing temporary office was approved by the BOCC April 7, 2008 for a two year time. period. Under the, now expired, Land Use Resolution of 1978, as amended, office uses were not contemplated for the remote rural land where resource extraction occurs and only temporary uses were allowed as a Special Use Permit for "Support Facilities of Natural Resources". The Applicant made the original request prior to the expiration of the Special Use Permit for the temporary use. However, this specific land use was recently added to the Table of Uses (Table 3-502) for the Resource Lands zoning districts in July of 2009 (Resolution 2009-53) as "Professional Office for the Conduct of Business or Profession" and requires a Limited Impact Review for this zone district. The temporary employee office resides on the north side of the American Soda parking lot and the Applicant is leasing the building from the property owner, American Soda. Water and wastewater are provided by an independent contractor with a "vault and haul" service (see Exhibits Land M). The Applicant's office building has been functioning without complaints and American Soda is content with Encana to continue to use the existing water and wastewater systems that are presently in place (see Exhibit N). The Applicant proposes to continue the "vault and haul" service as it exists as approved under Resolution No. 2008-49. The question to be resolved in this permit is what is "temporary" what is "permanent". The Applicant proposes an additional five year period in order to continue oil and gas work while seeking future office accommodations. Temporary vs. Permanent The County's policy is that land uses that last one year or less are commonly considered temporary. Additionally, a temporary use is characterized as a use that is served by temporary (non-permanent) services such as portable toilets and hauled/ bottled water service. Permanent uses are intended to last longer than one year and are served by permanent services such as a water well and an Individual Septic Disposal System (ISDS). Within the past year, several land use applications (OXY USA WTP LP Professional Office - LIPA 5951 and Chevron Office Expansion -LIPA 5970) have come before the BOCC regarding 4 "temporary" and "permanent" uses, specifically office buildings for the oil and gas industry. At both public hearings, it was ruled that the temporary use had to become permanent within a one year period or be removed. Temporary uses such as this have conditions of approval that address the temporary provision of water and wastewater complying with state and local laws and regulations, maintaining accurate records regarding water supply and wastewater disposal, and testing for e. coli contamination. An extension of a temporary use would place additional burden on the County to oversee these conditions for a longer period of time of which manpower to oversee is already limited. However, the installation of permanent water and wastewater systems only requires an initial review through the land use code (i.e., well) and a building permit from the County Building Department for the septic. Resolution 2008-49 approved a temporary employee office for a two year period and if the use was to remain for more than this time frame a permanent water and wastewater systems had to be secured. The Applicant has attempted to provide the office building with permanent systems but has been unsuccessful. Therefore, Encana proposes to retain the existing office in its current state using vault and haul water and wastewater systems for another five years while seeking new office accommodations. As per County policy, allowing the office building to function for another five years is not considered a "temporary" use. However, Staff would be in favor to allow the Applicant to remain one more year to continue their operations and secure other office accommodations. At the end of this given year the Applicant will need to vacate the existing office building. VI. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends the BOCC approve the request for a Land Use Change Permit through the Special Use Permit Amendment process to amend Condition 8 of Resolution No. 2008-49 for American Soda, LLP with the following revised condition: 1. Amend the Condition No. 8 of Resolution No. 2008-49 to read as follows: "The Temporary Employee Office shall use the vault and haul system for potable water and wastewater for one (1) more year commencing at the date of the Resolution." VII. . RECOMMENDED FINDINGS 1. Proper posting and public notice was provided as required for the public hearing before the Board of County Commissioners. 2. The public hearing before the Board of County Commissioners was extensive and complete, that all pertinent facts, matters and issues were submitted and that all interested parties were heard at that hearing. 3. The above stated and other reasons, the proposed Land Use Change Permit has been determined to be in the best interest of the health, safety, morals, convenience, order, prosperity and welfare of the citizens of Garfield County. 4. The application has met the requirements of Amendment of a Major Impact or Li.mited Impact Permit Approval (Section 4-501) of the Garfield County Unified Land Use Resolution of 2008, as amended. 5 5. The proposed Land Use Change Permit for a "Professional Office for the Conduct of Business or Profession" is consistent with the applicable provisions of the Garfield County Comprehensive Plan of 2000, as amended. VIII. RECOMMENDED MOTION "I move to approve a Land Use Change Permit through the Amendment of a Major Impact or Limited Impact Permit process to amend Condition No. 8 of Resolution No. 2008-49 to allow an approved Temporary Employee Office to use temporary water and waste water systems for a one (1) year on Parcel Number 2409-022-00-148 for American Soda, LLP, with the recommended revised Condition No. 8." 6 11111 M1r\ N~~',MH ,~'4/f ,!JA/1 ,~irl/l~~MJ'.l~~.li'l1l.~1 w RI 111 EXHIBl'li ' 11 I , ·~ I •">JJ'(;r• .. • • i~' I Receptionn: 746654 04/16/2008 0 4:1 2:11 PM Jean Alberi co t of 4 Re c Fee :$0.00 Doc Feo :©.00 GARF IELD COUN TY CO ... -'Ii :: ..

The original BOCC Re solution 2008 -49 indicates that American Soda, LLP would be installing a "vault and haul" ISDS. Condition 8 of the resolution requires the applicant to in stall more permanent water/wastewater services should the use exceed two years . It is apparent that the BOCC did not consider the vault and haul as a "more permanent" wastewater serv ice . Allowing continued use of the vault and haul ISDS does not appear to meet the intent of condition 8. 2. The applicants letter indicates that an ISDS is present and in use . Is there a county ISDS permit for this system or are they referring the the original vault and haul system? There should have been a permit issued for the vault . Because vaults are covered under the County's ISDS regulations, it could be argued that it is an ISDS. However, based on #1 above I don't think that is what the BOCC had in mind. 3. Are there any records that the applicant has met conditions 5 and 6? Perhaps proof that they have met these requirements might provide some level of support for an extension of th is permit. 4 . The summary of request mentions installation of a 10,000 gallon water system . EnCana's letter makes no mention of a modification to the existing system, only an extension of use of the existing water and wastewater systems . 5. Has the maximum number of users changed? Once the number of us~rs reaches 25 then the potable water system falls under the jurisdiction of CDPHE, WQCD . Your pre-application summary indicates an extension to 2020 and EnCana's letter indicates 2 or 5 years . It appears that the applicant is moving toward a more permanent arrangement for this facility. I believe that the BOCC has already set some precedent with other similar projects requiring them to install permanent ISDS and water system s on what was desired to be temporary facilities . If managed properly and in accordance with applicable conditions, regulations etc., these systems can be used to effectively provide water and wastewater services to temporary buildings. I don't have enough information to be able to say that these systems have been managed in accordance with the required cond itions of Resolution 2008-49. Therefore, I cannot make a recommendation for or against this proposal. More discussion is also needed as to what constitutes a temporary facility. Thanks for the opportunity to review this application .
