The information contained within this application is complete and correct, to the best of my knowledge: // Applicant: Date: 0 Application for Amendment to Special Use Permit And Impact Statement The applicant, George Strong, is the owner of a one half undivided interest in the property whose legal description is Section 15, T5S, R93W. A Quit Claim Deed is attached. The property is located approximately six miles north of Rifle off State Highway 13. The site is approximately twenty acres in size. There is an existing well and septic system. The existing zoning is Agricultural/Rural/Residential. On August 7, 1984, the Garfield County Board of County Commissioners signed a resolution authorizing a processing operation on the property. A copy of the resolution signed by the Garfield County Commission on August 7, 1984 is attached. Specifically, the use authorized was a sawmill for the processing of logs. In the application it is stated that there will be no treating of logs. The application states that "....cut logs will then be shipped to a shaper mill to be turned into tongue and groove house logs. The applicant requests an amendment to the Special Use Permit to allow for not only the sawing of logs, but also peeling, notching, chinking and the stacking of logs. The stacking of logs includes stacking the logs into a house shell, including the trusses, handrails, corbles, window frames and door bucking to ensure the processing of the logs is complete and ready for fabrication on the proposed home site. The house shell which will be stacked will not exceed 100 feet by 100 feet by 20 feet. Both round and square logs will be processed. The original application stated that the logs would be sawed into 6x8 and 8x8 foot sizes. The applicant requests that the Special Use Permit be amended to eliminate any size restrictions. The proposed additional uses will not increase the amount of traffic going to and from the site. Ingress and egress will be the same as that granted in the original special use permit. A copy of the Access Permit signed by the Chief Engineer of the Division of Highways is attached. Also attached is a United States Department Of The Interior Geological Survey of the area and a copy of a Garfield County Assessor's Map showing all public and private landowners adjacent to the property. Mr. Strong's parcel is marked as 065. Attached is a list of the names and addresses of the adjacent property owners. The proposed additional uses will not require the use of water and the water supply is the same as that cited in the original application. The well will only be used in connection with the mobile home on site, which serves as an office. An additional office building will be necessary. The size of the office will be 24 feet by 24 feet. 80 • • An additional well permit is currently being sought. Attached is a map showing the location at which the office will be located and the location at which the additional uses will occur on the site. The business will operate Monday through Saturday from 8:00 A.M. to 7:00 P.M. The operation will not require the use of water and therefore will not pollute surface runoff, stream flow or ground water. The operation will not generate vapor, dust, smoke, glare, vibration or other emanations which would impact adjacent land. There will be no impact on wildlife or domestic animals through the creation of hazardous attractions, alteration of existing native vegetation, blockade of migration routes, use patterns or other disruptions. The average truck traffic will be 2 to 6 units per week onto Highway 13 to and from Interstate 70. Therefore, no noticeable increase in traffic will be generated. There is excellent visibility for access onto Highway 13, with 1/2 mile visiblity to the east and 3/4 mile visibility to the west. Due to low vegetation, there are no visual obstructions to prevent drivers on Highway 13 from seeing exiting trucks. No mitigation measures are necessary as there are no residences or other uses on adjoining property that are close enough to see or hear any of the various operations being performed. A copy of the Garfield County Planning Staff s findings and recommendations for the 1984 hearing entitled Project Information And Staff Comments is attached. spectfully submitted, alvin Lee Attorney for George Strong I, George Strong, submit this application and authorize Calvin Lee to act as my alto l an, r: presentative.

It appears that one valid permit exists that was granted on March 25, 1985 to Raymond R. Lyons Jr. and John M. Lyons for access to State Highway 13 approximately 1500 feet north of milepost 7. The access permit 385010, a copy of which was enclosed in your letter submittal of January 25, 2001, allows the access to be used by 8 passenger cars per day, 2 heavy, single unit trucks per week, and 2 multi -unit trucks per week. This permit also required the closure of the access previously permitted under 384066, enclosed in your submittal, and revoked that permit. As long as the nature of the traffic and traffic volumes using the permitted access are in compliance with access permit 385010, use of the access is considered to be in compliance with the permit. If the nature of traffic has changed or the traffic volumes exceed permitted volumes, then a new access permit shall be applied for. If there are any further concerns or questions, please feel free to contact this office at the above referenced address and number. Sincerely, arles E.

Box 201 Carbondale, CO 81623 Dear Mr. Strong: Enclosed is your approved contract #001213GS(a). Please read the contract carefully' if you have not already done so, but please especially note paragraph 2 concerning availability of water. West Divide obtains its storage water from a number of sources including Ruedi Reservoir and Green Mountain Reservoir which are Bureau of Reclamation projects. Federal policy relating to endangered species, among other environmental concerns, provides that supplies from these reservoirs may be interruptible. Moreover, the forces of nature are always such that no source of water can be guaranteed from year to year. West Divide continues to make good -faith efforts to obtain alternative long-term supplies in an effort to make reliable and predictable the water supply anticipated by your contract with us. This water allotment contract may require you to obtain a well permit from the State Engineer's office. Once your well is drilled you are required to install a measuring device and submit a meter reading to West Divide. You will be provided with a special form for this purpose upon notification that your well has been drilled. Non-compliance with measuring and reporting requirements are grounds for cancellation of your water allotment contract with West Divide. This could result in action by the State Engineer which could prevent your further use of your well.

Inc. is a subsidiary company of Strong Lumber & Specialty Log Products. Together, they make one business. We have been building and sawmilling in the Roaring Fork Valley for over 100 years in coordination with all the beetle kill timber that has been killed in the area from the FlatTops to Red Tables, Four Mile to Meeker to Minturn. We play a vital role in helping the U.S. Forest Service manage forests. Seeing as how we do a small variety of things, it takes two operations to make one business. We use the sawmill to build log shells but also use log shells to minimize log use. By minimizing log use, we minimize impact to the county. There is no difference in a lumber stack versus a peeled and notched log stack. BASIC OPERATIONS: In the process of sawing, the men first need to find the right logs for the orders. We normally try to find enough logs so that when we saw, it is for a three to four hour time period. Then, the beams, logs or lumber need to be sorted and processed. Then, other time is spent loading or unloading trucks or moving logs for the shells, mostly on or off peeling racks. Depending upon what type of log' shell we are building, logs are set up for the notching or stacking process. Once logs are ready for stacking on shells, chain saws may be used or also beam saws. The amount of notching is usually four to five hours per day. This is partly due to each log having to be set. leveled, scribed, then notched. Our process has a tremendous set up and take down period of time. A lot of our work is not even done at this location, but at different job sites. As far as impacts are concerned, the impacts of custom sawing and pre -stacking of log homes and log packages are far less than a full fledged sawmill. Sawmills are based on bringing in wood and taking it out by at least two to three loads of logs per day to one to two semi's leaving per week. Chain saws are being used eight hours per day, five days per week. Sawmills need to be fed constantly with eight hours of sawing, five days per week. Log loaders and front end loaders are used eight hours per day, five days per week. This creates thirty to fifty tons of sawdust per year and 200-500 cords of firewood per year. Lumber storage areas can be one acre to two acres with logs stacked 12' to 15' high, either drying or waiting to be shipped. Customer vehicles consist of fifteen to twenty per week. In contrast, custom sawing log shell and log packages consist of one to two loads per week with maybe one semi load every two weeks. Custom sawing is done by orders. Most orders do not stay in the yard very long. Also, most orders are routinely small (10 pieces to 20 pieces) which do not require semi's to haul them (customers pick them up) or regular sized pickups deliver. Our log shells and log products usually take one to five weeks to process, then are shipped out to their destination, where we continue to work on them, two weeks to three months. Our sawmill usually runs four to five hours per day, three to four days per week. Our bi-products, such as sawdust, are 1 no more than two to ten tons which is normally picked up as we make it. Firewood usually consists of 50-200 cords and is also picked up by people who burn it. Customer vehicles consist of ten to fifteen per week. Water, dust, glare, heat, vibration, visual yard lighting, noise and vapor. Water: There is no water used in either sawmilling or log shell packages. The only water on site is for sanitation and drinking purposes. Dust: There is no problem with dust with the neighbors. All sawdust is stored in a pit, where wind or rain cannot get at it. Dust from machinery is not foreseen as a problem. Glare: There is no glare off of log piles, lumber piles, or machinery. Heat: There is no heat made off of wood products; no method for heat in milling or shells. Vibration: There is no vibration produced by or in our operations. Visual: We are off the road and our lumber, logs or shells are not stacked high enough to be seen. If we do get tall shells, the top or second story is set off on the ground, mainly for safety reasons. Yard Lighting: We have no need or want for night yard lighting. Machinery: Sawmill machinery consists of chain saws, log trucks, log loaders, and yard loaders. Sawmill consists of Scragg mill edger, cut of saw, green chains, sorters, trim saw, blowers. sawdust removal systems, live decks slab recovery systems, debarkers, and planers. Custom sawmilling consists of chain saws, log trucks, log loaders, yard loaders, sawmill, edger, cut off saw, blower, planer and notcher. Noise: Gene Shilling, Carbondale Police Chief, let us borrow a noise meter or decameter on 1/25/01. On this day, we went and tested noise levels on the boundaries of the subject property. We could not get any higher reading than 65 on the scale, in which 60 is the lowest and 135 is the highest. Across the street from the property, the noise level was 0. Vapor: There is no more vapor in the proposed operation than in the sawmill.

It appears that one valid permit exists that was granted on March 25, 1985 to Raymond R. Lyons Jr. and John M. Lyons for access to State Highway 13 approximately 1500 feet north of milepost 7. The access permit 385010, a copy of which was enclosed in your letter submittal of January 25, 2001, allows the access to be used by 8 passenger cars per day, 2 heavy, single unit trucks per week, and 2 multi -unit trucks per week. This permit also required the closure of the access previously permitted under 384066, enclosed in your submittal, and revoked that permit. As long as the nature of the traffic and traffic volumes using the permitted access are in compliance with access permit 385010, use of the access is considered to been compliance with the permit. If the nature of traffic has changed or the traffic volumes exceed permitted volumes, then a new access permit shall be applied for.

Rifle, Colorado in Garfield County. The sawtni►I is presently located at 2414 County Road 100 just south of Carbondale, Colorado. The saw mill will process logs and produce wooden structural components and other items for homes. The timber is hauled to the sawmill by trucks and the finished product is also hauled by truck to the construction site. The Applicant expects a maximum of 4 trips per day (2 in/ 2 out) or approximately 1000 trips per year. The sawmill is approved for 2000 trips per year and that volume is not expected based upon business projections. The operational scenario at the proposed sawmill will be very similar to that of the existing saw mill at Carbondale. The Applicant plans to locate the timber -cutting saw inside of an enclosure, which will reduce the noise of the saw. The site plan shows the location of fixed and mobile equipment and the access road to the sawmill. 2.0 Applicable Laws and Ordinances 2.1 State of Colorado The State of Colorado noise law. CRS 25-12-101 - 108, has been duplicated in its entirety and is included in Appendix A. The applicable portions of the law relative to the Sawmill project are replicated below: 2542-103, Maximum permissible noise levels: 1. Every activity to wflicn this article is applicable shall be conducted in a manner so that any noise produced is not objectionable due to intermittence, beat frequency, or shrillness. Sound levels of noise radiating from a property line at a distance of twenty-five feet or more there from in excess of the de(A) established for the following time periods and zones shall constitute prima facie evidence that such noise is a pudic nuisance: Zone Residential Commercial Light Industrial Industrial 7:00 a.m. to' next 7:00 p.m. 55 dB(A) 50 d8(A) 70 dB(A) 80 dB(A) 7:00 p.m to next 7:00 a.m. 50 dB(A) 55 dB(A) 65 dB(A) 75 dB(A) n supsectiOn (1) Of 2. In the hours lyelween 7:00 a.m. and the next 7:110 p.m., the noise levels permitted . u this section may be increased by ten dB(A) for a period of not to exceed fifteen minutes in any orie•hoar period. 3. Periodic, impulsive. or shrill noises shall be considered a public nuisance when such noises are et a sound level of five dB(A) Tess than those listed in subsection (1) of this section. 4. Construction projects shall be subject to the maximum permissible noise levels specified for industrial zones for the period within which construction is to be completed pursuant to any applicable ooM:uetbn permit issued by proper authority or, if no time limitation is imposed, for a reasonable period of time for completion of project.

This was verified by contacting the Garfield County Planning Department. 3.0 Adjacent Properties The Sawmill property is adjacent to Colorado Highway 13, with private landowners on two sides and BLM land on the remaining sides_ There are three main operational areas on the Sawmill property, the Sawmill, the log storage and sorting area. and the log shell stacking and loading area. These three areas and the operations in these areas will be considered as operational scenarios in Section 4,0. The distances of these three operational areas to the two private landowners are listed in Table 3.1.

Wilson --900' --550' -.500' Hausler -525' --300' -400' 4.0 Noise Emissions Associated with Saw Mill Operations This section addresses the projected noise levels from sawmill operations at the nearest adjacent property lines. The equipment that is currently in use at the Carbondale facility is planed to be in use at Me proposed Rifle facility and is a combination of stationary and non -stationary equipment. Noise emission levels of equipment that is owned by Strong Bunt Log Homes and is in operation at the existing Carbondale facilities was measured and the measurements were performed with the equipment operating under normal conditions Results of these measurements are fisted in Table 4.1.

Noise emission levels of the Sawmill are for the existing Carbondale milt. The proposed operation will place a partial enclosure around the Sawmill. This enclosure will reducethe emission levels listed in Table 4.1 by 5 to 10 d6(A). Noise contours nave been developed using the noise emission data for the various equipment listed above and for the typical equipment operational scenarios. Given the planned production capacity and number of employees at the facility the typical operational scenarios are, 112 June 2001 Page 3 of 3 3925 S.

Scenario 2 - Log shell stacking, loading and unloading area, which will use Case Loader, Crane and Delivery Truck. Scenario 3 - Log ste age and sorting area, which will use the Prentice Log Loader, Case Loader and up to three chain saws. The operational Scenarios are exclusive, in that they do not happen simultaneously. However, for each Scenario it is assumed that ALL equipment in that Scenario is operating simultaneously. The calculated noise levels for each operational Scertafio at the Wilson and Hausier properties (25' onto the iproperties) are listed in Table 4.1. The noise level results in Table 4.1 have been rounded to the nearest d8(A). Table 4.1: Calculated Sawmill Operational Noise Levels, dB(A) Landowner Wilson Hausier Scenario 1 45 51 Operettas Scenario 2 Scenario 3 47 54 49 51 Inspection of the analysis results In Table 4.1 snow that the calculated noise levels from each Sawmill operation are below the State of Colorado Daytime Residential noise limit of 55 d$(A) 2f onto the Wilson and Hausier properties. 5.0 Conclusions eased on these results of Section 4.0, no additional noise mitigation is required, except for the enclosure around the Sawmill, If the enclosure around the Sawmill is not installed noise levels from Scenario 1 25' onto the Hausier property will be above the 55 de(A) limit. Additional comments are as follows, a. Noise levels from existing traffic on Highway 13 25' onto the Hausier properly are higher than the calculated levels from Sawmill operations. b For reference Table 5.1 below lists noise levels of typical events. For the average human an increase of the measured noise level of 10 dB is Subjectively Perceived as being twice as loud or hail as loud for a 10 dB decrease. The decibel change at which the average human wit/ indicate that the noise is just perceptibly louder or perceptibly quieter is 3 de. 12 Jur 2001 Page 4 of 5 3925 S.

County Clerk and ex -officio Clerk REQUEST: APPLICANT: LOCATION: BOCC 7/23/84 PROJECT INFORMATION AND STAFF COMMENTS For a Special Use permit for a sawmill Raymond R. Lyons Section 15, T5S, R93W; located approximately 6 miles north of Rifle off State Highway 13 SITE DATA: The site is approximately 20 acres in size WATER: Existing well SEWER: Existing septic system ACCESS: Off State Highway 13 EXISTING ZONING: A/R/RD ADJACENT ZONING: North O/S South R/L East O/S West A/R/RD I. RELATIONSHIP TO THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN The site sits in District C, Rural Areas with Minor Environmental Constraints. Non-agricultural areas and non-productive cropland found within this district shall be considered best able to absorb growth. Road access and conditions shall be used to evaluate the relative ability of areas within the district to absorb growth. Areas determined to have a high degree of visual quality should use special design and siting to ensure compatiblity with the visual quality. The following is taken from the Industrial/Commercial portion of the Comprehensive Plan: Goal "To maintain and support the existing economic base of the County as well as to provide for a diversified economy to broaden employment opportunities and ensure the stability of the region." Objective "Require heavy industrial development to meet all federal, state and local standards for air and water quality." "Encourage industrial expansion where similar development already exists in appropriate areas, i.e., within or adjacent to platted industrial parks, within designated industrial zones in existing towns, or adjacent to existing similar development." "Encourage industrial development in areas where adequate transportation facilities and public utilities are available." "Require industrial development to use buffers between less intensive land uses." "Industrial development shall occur within designated areas within existing municipalities or adjacent to existing appropriate industrial areas." 1 II. DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPOSAL A. Site Description: The site sits to the Northeast of State Highway 13. It is relatively flat ground covered with native vegetation. One mobile home currently exists on the site. B. Project Description: The applicants propose to operate a sawmill (see site plan, page /2) ). The applicants propose to operate the sawmill from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m., Monday thru Saturday. The application states that they do not plan to operate on Sundays and holidays. 1. The maximum level of truck traffic anticipated is as follows: Number of incoming log trucks is anticipated to be 10 per day, June - August. Number of trucks leaving with processed materials is anticipated to be 2 per week. Number of pickup and farm trucks anticipated to be 20 per day (to purchase firewood and sawdust). Number of employee vehicles is anticipated to be 3 to 7 per day (one way). 2. There is no water used in the proposed sawmill operation. An existing well serves the mobile home on the property. The applicants propose to use the existing mobile home as a residence and office for the sawmill operation. 3. The application states that there will be no treating of the logs cut at the operation. The operation will initially be for the cutting of logs into 6 x 6 and 6 x 8 sizes. These cut logs will then be shipped to a shaper mill to be turned into tongue and groove house logs. 4. The applicants propose to sell the sawdust and firewood by-products from the operation. 5. The operation will employ 5 to 7 full time workers and 2 to 5 part-time workers. The applicants anticipate an average of 7 to 12 employees. 6. The proposed site plan indicates 2 large log storage areas. These areas will consist of rows approximately 33' wide and 12' high. The main storage area will handle 4 to 5 rows of logs 500' long (3 million board feet of logs). 7. The site plan also indicates 3 lumber storage areas with the capacity to handle 3.10 million board feet, 2.2 million board feet, 14.04 million board feet (see site plan, page /2 ). 8. The operation will include a firewood area and sawdust pile containing approximately 500 cords and 30,500 yards respectively. These will also be a maximum of 10,000 gallon of fuel stored on the property. All storage of fuel must meet UBC requirements. 9. The sawmill building is proposed to be located approximately 400 feet southwest of the existing mobile home. 2 t s 10. The application states that the operation will not disrupt wildlife, that there will be no generation of vapor, glare, smoke or vibration, and that noise will be below the levels allowed by the Colorado Department of Health and Garfield County. The applicant also states that there will be no detrimental effects to surface or ground water caused by the operation. 11. Proposed measures for assurance of sawdust control include a stockpile net, a slat enclosure or occasional watering. III.MAJOR ISSUES AND CONCERNS A. Review agency comments: 1. Colorado State Department of Health - Scott Miller of the Air Quality Control Division determined that the operation would not require any air quality permits if the following stipulations are met (see letter, page /3 ) a. No open burning be conducted. b. Electrical suppliersshall furnish power to the mill or diesel powered equipment shall not emit greater than (5) tons per year (approximately 20,000 gallons of diesel). c. Vehicle activity is limited to established roads and maximum truck trips limited to 10 per day and 2,000 per year. (Haul trucks) 2. White River Electrical Association, Inc. - Mr. Norton of White River Electrical Company confirmed that his company could service the proposal with single phase service with some restriction in the amount of capacity that the existing line will provide. (See letter, page /+ ) 3. Division of Water Resources - A letter was received from the Division of Water Resources noting that the existing well permit is for household use only. The only time that the Division of Water Resources recommends that an individual well permit can serve both an office and a house is when the office is a part of the house and no people outside of the home are employed in the office. (See letter, page /,s' ) 4. Rifle Rural Fire Department - Mr. Swallow of the Rifle Rural Fire Department has noted that no water storage will be required on the site for fire protection purposes. The response time from the station to the site is approximately 15 minutes. &be' i6 B. Staff Comments: 1. The applicants propose to use the existing mobile home on the site as a residence and office for the sawmill operation. The mobile home currently has a Mobile Home Special Use Permit (Res.#82-136). If the sawmill and the mobile home are on the same parcel of ground, there would then be two principal uses on one lot. A mobile home as a residence is not allowable for an industrial operation in the A/R/RD zone district. However, a mobile home as an office would be considered an accessory use to the sawmill. 2. There is an existing residential access drive off Highway 13 for the parcel. The proposed use will require an additional or upgraded access permit from the State Highway Department. 3. There are 2 mobile homes used as residences to the north of the proposal. 3 1 • 4. The proposed operation would be highly visible from the State Highway but would not be visible from the existing residences in the area. 5. Any signs used for the operation must be in compliance with the Garfield County Sign Code. IV. SUGGESTED FINDINGS 1. The application submitted for the proposed Special Use permit is in compliance with Section 5.03.07 of the Garfield County Zoning Regulations regarding industrial operations. 2. The proposal is in general compliance with the Garfield County Zoning regulations and the Garfield County Comprehensive Plan. 3. The proposed use is in the best interst of the health, safety, morals, convenience, order, prosperity and welfare of the citizens of Garfield County. V. RECOMMENDATION On July 11, 1984, the Planning Commission recommended approval, with the following conditions: 1. That the use of the tract of land comply with all regulations of Garfield County relating to processing operations in the zone district in which the property is located. 2. All proposals of the applicant shall be considered conditions of approval unless stated otherwise by the Board of County Commissioners. 3. That all conditions must be met within 120 days and that the said Special Use permit shall be taken out within 120 days of the date of issuance of the resolution approving the Special Use permit unless an extension is granted by the Board of County Commissioners. 4. The Special Use permit shall only be valid for a period of 120 days from the date of issuance unless construction or use has commenced thereunder; and if construction or use has not commenced within this specified period the permit shall expire. 5. The existing mobile home may remain on the property as an office. No residential occupancy shall be allowed in the mobile home. 6. The applicant must obtain an access permit from the State Division of Highways for the sawmill operation. A copy shall be submitted to the Department of Development prior to issuance of the Special Use permit. 7. Sawing operations shall be allowed Monday through Saturday from 8 A.M. to 7 P.M. The repair and maintenance of equipment shall not be restricted by these hours of operation. 8. Any signs used for the operation shall be in compliance with the Garfield County Sign Code. 9. There shall be no burning or treating of logs at the operation. 10. A salvage yard is not an allowable use on the site. DEPARTMENT OF HIGHWAYS STATE OF COLORADO DIVISION OF HIGHWAYS DOH Form 101 Rev.
