Checks, including the appropriate Base Fee set forth below, must be submitted with each land use application, and made payable to the Garfield County Treasurer. Applications will not be accepted without the required application fee. Base Fees are non-refundable in full, unless a written request for withdraw from the applicant is submitted prior the initial review of the application materials. Applications must include an Agreement for Payment Form ("Agreement") set forth below. The Agreement establishes the applicant as being responsible for payment of all costs associated with processing the application. The Agreement must be signed by the party responsible for payment and submitted with the application in order for it to be accepted. The complete fee schedule for subdivision and land use applications is attached.

Development Corporation (PDC) is submitting this impact statement for a laydown yard on remote lands on the Roan Plateau about 10 miles northwest of Parachute, Colorado (figure 1). The laydown yard would be located on two lots owned by Puckett Land Company in the NWSE quarter quarter of Section 36, Township 6S, Range 97W in Parachute, Garfield County, Colorado. PDC plans to construct the facility to store nonhazardous material associated with drilling operations on multiple drill pads in the area. PDC has selected a location for the laydown yard adjacent to one of their existing well pads (Puckett 31-36), as well as a temporary housing unit they are permitting under a special use permit application. PDC is submitting this impact statement to meet requirements for a conditional use permit application they are submitting for the laydown yard. PDC is filing the application with all supporting information, plans, letters of approval from responsible agencies or other permit applications to satisfy the requirements listed for conditional uses. 1.1 Property location and ownership The laydown yard is located on lots 2 and 3 of Section 36, Township 6 South, and Range 97 West, as shown on the vicinity map included as figure 1. This location is zoned Resource Lands by Garfield County. In this location, the Puckett Land Company owns the property and mineral rights. The deed showing Puckett's purchase of the property is included in appendix A. Appendix B contains a letter from Puckett authorizing PDC to apply for this permit as well as to establish temporary housing. Puckett Land Company owns more than 5,000 acres of property around the location of the laydown yard. This property is used as rangeland by Puckett and natural gas extraction by PDC. Well pads within the vicinity of the site are illustrated on figure 1. No other structures or buildings exist within 200 feet of the proposed site. The property owners within 200 feet of Puckett's 5,000-acre parcel are given in Table 1. These property owners are identified on the assessor's maps in appendix C.

Although being permitted separately, the laydown yard is included within the property leased by PDC from the Puckett Land Company. For this reason, the laydown yard is planned for grading along with the temporary employee housing. For grading, PDC plans to fill the area with topsoil and soil from the steeper portions of the site followed by the gravel that underlies the topsoil at the steeper areas of the site (figure 3). The laydown yard will be graded with a 2.5 percent slope for stormwater management. The grading permit application is included in appendix D. The laydown yard will be used to store the follow drilling materials: • Drill pipe and casing, which will be hauled in and stored on trailers; • Drill bits and rig parts; • Drilling mud supplies (no used or pre-mixed muds will be stored in the yard); and • . A forklift. In compliance with industrial performance standards outlined in section 5.03.08(5) of Garfeld County's Zoning Resolutions, • Flammable and explosive solids or gases will not be stored at the laydown yard. • The laydown yard will be concealed from adjacent property using a fence . ........ ~ '°'lh EJ<SR lo 0001 --¥>-f~ETi:C M:\PDC\Conditional Use Permit Applicalion\Condllional Use Permit Application.doc 1-2 August 2007 ENSR • No materials or wastes will be deposited on the laydown yard in a form or manner that they may be transferred off the property by any reasonably foreseeable natural causes or forces. · • Heavy equipment wil_I not be stored, repaired, maintained, or loaded at the laydown yard. • The laydown yard would be associated with natural resource extraction, but it would not exceed 10 acres. • The laydown yard will not be lighted. 1.3 Hours of operation The laydown yard will be open for trucks to retrieve pipe and deposit drilling mud supplies 24 hours per day, as the drilling crew will work at drill pads in the vicinity of the site 24 hours per day. No employees will work at the laydown yard on a full-time basis. Only existing personnel, such as roustabouts and maintenance operators, and vendors will access the laydown yard long enough to deliver, pick up, or inventory drilling supplies. 1.4 Number and types of vehicles accessing the site The types of vehicles accessing the laydown yard will include semi-trailers, trucks hauling drilling mud supplies, and standard pickup trucks. Very few vehicles will be accessing the laydown yard on a daily basis: some days no vehicles will access the yard; on other days, three to four vehicles will access the yard. In a typical week, approximately one semi-trailer, one to two trucks larger than pickups, and five to seven pickups will access the laydown yard. W~~ •Hh EH"""' 1007 ""' [! i:~p' ~,,.h~~,.:.t 1;;. M:\PDC\Conditional Use Permit Applicalion\Condllional Use Permit Application.doc 1-3 August 2007 ENSR 2.0 Specific criteria from section 5.03 of the Zoning Regulations This special use will conform to requirements for utilities, street improvements, and impacts to the neighborhood character stated in section 5.03 of the Zoning Regulations. • Utilities. The laydown yard will not require utilities for electricity, water, or waste management. If workers working at the laydown yard need water or restroom facilities, they can use the utilities to be constructed for the adjacent temporary employee housing unit (figure 2). Employees delivering, picking up, and inventorying drilling supplies at the laydown yard were included in the totals and design for the temporary employee housing unit 1 . Employees will not be employed solely for the laydown yard. • Street improvements. In 2007, PDC constructed a new road on the plateau with adequate design for the degree of traffic the laydown yard will generate. New improvements to the streets are not required to support this conditional use. • Impact minimization. Because the site will be located in a remote area, it will have minimal impacts to adjacent property. Puckett Land Company owns the property on which the site is located, as well as the surrounding 5,000 acres (appendix C). Puckett Land Company has given PDC a letter of approval to apply for this permit (appendix B). A fence will be installed around the laydown yard as well as the temporary employee housing and the entrance to the site will be guarded. These two measures will prevent wildlife and domestic animals, as well as unauthorized personnel, from accessing the site. 1 Refer to section 3.2.1 of the Special Use Permit Application for Temporary Employee Housing, Parachute, Garfield County, Colorado, published by ENSR in August 2007.

This impact analysis complies with the industrial performance standards contained in Zoning Resolution section 5.03.0B. 4.1 Potential impacts The following summarize potential impacts by topic: • Noise and vibration. The only noise and vibration generated at the laydown yard will be from trucks delivering or retrieving pipe, drill bits, and drilling mud supplies. Noise and vibration will be less than the drilling operations already occurring on the plateau. Impacts to adjacent land are not anticipated. • Emission of heat, glare, radiation, and fumes. The only heat, glare, radiation, and fumes that would be potentially emitted from the laydown yard would be from trucking. Trucking would not interfere with existing use of the adjacent property or constitute a nuisance or hazard. • Emissions of smoke and vapor. Only trucks would impact air quality at the laydown yard; the trucks' emissions are in compliance with state and federal laws. • Dust. The laydown yard will be covered with 6 inches of gravel, which will mitigate generation of dust. • Established neighborhood character (section 5.03(3). PDC will enclose the laydown yard with a fence to minimize impacts. The laydown yard will not be lighted at night. 4.2 Mitigation measures Adjacent land use will not be impacted from the operation of the laydown yard. No mitigation measures are needed.

The overall volume of traffic would not increase, but the direction would increase to and from this specific location. This would decrease potential wildlife crossings at County Road 215, but would not affect the overall impacts on the plateau. 6.2 Mitigation measures Traffic will not be significantly impacted from the operation of the laydown yard. No mitigation measures are needed.

This section describes how PDC will accomplish reclamation and revegetation. 7.1 Area of disturbance An area of approximately 2.75 acres will be graded to construct the laydown yard. The site will be established on sloping rangeland located within the Parachute-Rhone-lrigul soil series, which is defined as deep to shallow, well-drained, moderately sloping to steep soils on mountains and ranges. The shallow geology on the Roan Plateau is characterized by thin soil layers overlying shallow shale bedrock. To design the individual sewage disposal system (ISDS) for the adjacent temporary housing, a deep observation hole was excavated using a backhoe to a depth of 96 inches. The distinct soil horizons found within the excavation are described below. Depth (inches) Description 0-24 Topsoil, dark brown silty loam, loam, friable, moist, slightly plastic, fine to medium roots 24-48 Orange brown sandy loam, 60% fine and medium channery material, gray siltstone with some orange sandstone fragments 48-66 Dark brown silty loam, 60% fine and medium channery material, gray siltstone fragments 66-96 80% channery material, gray siltstone fragments, dark brown silty loam To grade the site, PDC will first cut the topsoil at the locations of the temporary housing and ISDS and place as fill on the \aydown yard as well as the adjacent driveway. After cutting and placing the topsoil, PDC will cut and place the underlying channery. By filling in these soil horizons, PDC can use the underlying channery material as gravel and can then reclaim in those layers as well; that is, push the channery back into the grading cuts and then top them off with the topsoil. By using this method, topsoil will not need to be stockpiled for reclamation and revegetation. 7.2 Reclamation To reclaim the site, all materials will be removed from the laydown yard and the area regarded to original contours. The area will be ripped to 1 B inches and recontoured as nearly as possible to the original grade. To regrade the site, segregated soil horizons will be replaced as nearly as possible to their original relative positions; that is, grading cuts at the temporary housing site will be filled with the channery, which was used as gravel at the site. The underlying topsoil at the laydown yard will then be removed and used as topsoil at previous cut areas. The site will also be recontoured to control dust, weeds, and minimize erosion. During reclamation, all disturbed areas will be kept free of Garfield County and State of Colorado List A and B noxious weeds. l.lot9•~ with ENSR In 20D7 M:\PDC\Conditlonal Use Permit Application\Condit\onal Use Permit Application.doc 7-1 August 2007 Before revegetating the site, the reclaimed area will be stabilized and contain none of the following characteristics: • Large rills or gullies, • Perceptible soil movement or head cutting in drainages, and • Slope instability on or adjacent to the site. To prevent erosion during reclamation and revegetation, ENSR • The surface soil will be stable and have adequate roughness to reduce run-off, capture rainfall and snow melt, and allow for revegetation. • Soil conservation measures will be used including reducing the slope angle, revegetation, and water management techniques. • Hay bails will be placed along the downgradient boundaries of the reclaimed area. 7 .3 Revegetation plan The revegetation plan will comply with the Garfield County Revegetation Requirements, as described in the following subsections. 7 .3.1 Seedbed preparation After the site is recontoured, the top 4 inches of soil will be tilled to prepare the site for reseeding. The soil will be tilled using a disk, a chisel plow, or harrow. Seedbed preparation will also include removing rock fragments that exceed 30 to 45 percent of the soil surface as well as rock 8 inches in diameter that exceed 10 percent of the soil surface. 7.3.2 Seeding methods and times The site will be seeded before May 15 if seeding takes place during the spring and before August 30 (and the deep freeze) if seeding takes place in the fall. The site will be drill seeded with a rangeland drill to one-half or one-quarter inch on slopes 3:1 or flatter. Slopes steeper than 3: 1 or areas inaccessible by drill seeding equipment will be broadcast seeded followed by harrowing or hand raking to lightly cover the seed with soil. All areas will be mulched within 24 hours after seeding. Mulch will be certified weed-free straw or grass hay. Grass hay will be applied at 1 Y, tons per acre; straw mulch will be applied at 2 tons per acre. Mulch material will be crimped into the soil surface with a commercial mulch crimper, a straight disk, or bulldozer tracks if otherwise too steep to other crimp the mulch in place. The seed mixture will contain a diverse range of species specific to the site and approximating the surrounding undisturbed area. The seed mixture will also support the post-disturbance land use-livestock grazing. The seed mixture to be used is listed in table 7-1.

Based on this inventory and mapping, methods, materials, and timing of weed control measures will be specified. 7 .3.4 Criteria for successful reclamation Revegetation and reclamation of the site will be considered successful when the total cover of live perennial vegetation, excluding noxious weeds, provides sufficient soil erosion control as determined by the Director through a site inspection. Revegetation will be considered successful when evidence of vegetation reproduction is found either spreading by rhizomatous species or seed reproduction and the site is stable and sustainable.

Project Description The RETEC Group, Inc. -Merged with ENSR in 2007 1726 Cole Blvd., Suite 150 Golden, Colorado 80401 303-271-2111 Petroleum Development Corporation (PDC) desires to operate a temporary employee housing (TEH) facility to provide year-round housing for 50 employees. A Special Use Permit Application for this TEH facility will be submitted to Garfield County. The TEH facility would be located about 6.5 miles west-northwest of Parachute Colorado on an eight acre, privately owned site on the Roan Plateau. The facility will provide lodging, food, and laundry services for the employees. The elevation of the site is about 8190 feet MSL. The TEH facility is located in a remote area where public sewer service, electric power, and drinking water supply are not available. PDC is proposing to provide manufactured housing for the employees at the facility. Potable water from a nearby public water system will be delivered to the facility and stored in portable water storage tanks. Domestic wastewater generated from the facility will be trucked from the site and disposed of at a nearby domestic wastewater treatment system until the construction of an Individual Sewage Disposal System (ISDS) is complete. The ISDS treatment train recommended for the TEH facility will include a septic tank, subsurface flow constructed wetland, and a dripline soil absorption system. Electrical power to the facility will be supplied using natural gas engine generators unless overhead electrical power lines are brought into the area. Soil Report PDC Ten1porary Eniployee Hou~ .:Jroject & Laydo1-v11 Yard Gmfzeld County The manufactured housing shall be installed on a shallow foundation. The portable water tanks, natural gas engine generators, septic tank, vaults, and sumps shall be installed on compacted granular bedding. The embankment required for the lined subsurface flow constructed wetland shall be sufficient to achieve a depth of 45 inches within the impoundment. The projected life of the TEH facility is seven years, which is the anticipated period necessary to complete scheduled drilling activities in the area. After completion of these drilling activities, the facility will be demolished and the site reclaimed. Soil Testing The site consists of uncultivated native soil with slopes ranging between 5%-20%, draining to the northeast. A deep observation hole was excavated in the center of the proposed absorption area. The deep observation hole was terminated at a depth of 96 inches and was dug using a backhoe. The location of the deep observation hole is shown on Figure I. Visual observations of the deep hole indicated that t11ere was no evidence of seasonal high groundwater table or any saturated soil within the excavation. The distinct soil horizons found within the excavation are described below. Depth (inches) 0-24 24-48 48-66 66-96 Description Topsoil, dark brown silty loam, loam, friable, moist, slightly plastic, fine to medium roots Orange brown sandy loam, 60% fine and medium channery material, gray siltstone with some orange sandstone fragments Dark brown silty loam, 60% fine and medium cha1mery material, gray siltstone fragments 80% channery material, gray siltstone fragments, dark brown silty loam h1 addition, soil percolation tests were perfonned in thilieen shallow test holes that were unifonnly spaced over the proposed absorption area. The locations of tlie percolation test holes are also shown on Figure 1. The development of allowable hydraulic loading rates for the absmption area will be presented in the Engineering Repo1i for the ISDS. Erosion Control Measures The Stonnwater Management Plan for the site shall be prepared in accordance with CDPHE Water Quality Control Division regulations.
