I. GENERAL PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The Applicant is requesting Limited Impact Review approvals for the existing Hunter
Ridge Energy Services J-25 Centralized Distribution Point — Material Handling Facility.
The facility is currently in operation as part of the Liberty Pipeline system. Gas is
transported to the site by pipeline where natural gas, condensate, and water are then
separated and measured. The separated material can be utilized in area operations
and/or recombined for transportation via pipeline to the Middle Fork Compressor
Station and the Middle Fork Water Storage Recycling Facility. The Applicant's intent is
to permit the facility including minor future expansions in accordance with the Garfield
County Unified Land Use Resolution (ULUR).

The facility includes the following equipment:
1. Two Water Pump Buildings with the potential for one additional pump building in
the future based on increased volumes.
2. Three Generators
3. 1 LACT (Lease Acquisition Custody Transfer) Unit with the potential for one
additional unit with larger capacity.
4. Three Slug catchers and two 3 -Phase Separators
2
5. Two Launchers and Two Receivers
6. One gas meter building
The Applicant's site plan shows the existing facilities and includes proposed future
installations as shaded. The site is fully developed with existing storm water best
management practices including berms and a sediment pond constructed and in place.
The site is an integral part of existing pipeline operations and provides for required
monitoring and measurement mandated by oil and gas regulations including Federal
requirements.

Site Plan
The site includes existing gravel and compacted dirt roadways for access, circulation
and parking areas. The primary access roadway to the site is 20 ft. — 30 ft. in width
with a compacted dirt and gravel surface. The access road is subject to dust mitigation
3
including application of dust inhibitors and is serviced and maintained pursuant to joint
use and cost sharing agreements. The access road serves an extensive area of oil
and gas facilities including gas pads, tanks storage areas, telecommunication facilities
and pipelines.
II. LOCATION - SITE DESCRIPTION
The site is located in a remote area characterized by natural vegetation, open space,
and oil and gas operations. Existing vegetation surrounding the site is consistent with
sagebrush communities, mountain shrub and aspen woodlands and development of
the site is consistent with the Resource Lands Plateau zoning. The site is located
along a ridge with steeper slopes found both north and south of the facility. Disturbed
areas outside of the operations pad have been stabilized and re -vegetated.

IV. STAFF COMMENTS AND ANALYSIS
In accordance with the ULUR Limited Impact Review, the Applicant has provided
detailed responses to Section 4-203, Submittal Requirements, applicable sections of
Article VII, Divisions 1, 2, and 3, and Section 7-1101 Industrial Use Standards. The
Application materials include an Impact Analysis and related consultant reports,
technical studies, and plans. Key topics for the review are summarized in the following
sections.
Access - Traffic
The Application documents the legal access to the site along with a general description
of the roadway as currently in use. A traffic analysis is provided which notes minimal
impacts from the development. Construction traffic associated with potential future
expansions will be limited to delivery and installation of self contained modular
buildings/units. The installation is anticipated to be a one day operation.
The existing roadway system appears to adequately accommodate industrial traffic
accessing the site. A statement and finding of adequacy including safety of the
existing access road should be required from a qualified professional or representative
of Hunter Ridge Energy.
Re -vegetation, Weed Control and Reclamation
The site is included in long term reclamation plans for the Encana North Parachute
Ranch. Confirmation that the site is covered by existing reclamation bonds should be
provided. The Applicant's Erosion and Sediment Control Plan indicates that disturbed
areas outside of the pad have been stabilized, drainage improvements are in place,
and no additional disturbance is anticipated. The Application includes a weed
management plan including chemical, mechanical, biological and cultural weed
management practices.
Spill Prevention and Safety
The Applicant has provided an excerpt from the existing Spill Prevention Control and
Countermeasures Plan (SPCC) for the site. The Applicant should maintain and update
the SPCC plan as warranted. Operations plans including emergency notification
information were included in the submittals and need to be maintained and kept
current.
Noise
The Application addresses noise issues in the Impact Analysis Section and in the
responses to Section 7-1101 Industrial Use Standards. While noise studies are not
specficially required by the ULUR compliance with noise standards including COGCC
regulations are required. Noise studies are typically provided when proximity to other
land uses warrant it and when noise issues are anticipated by either the County or the
Applicant.
In this case the Applicant has not provided a noise study but addresses the issue with
additional information on noise issues including locational factors that deminish the
likelihood of any noise impacts. The remote location and topography are key factors
noted by the Applicant and addressed in the following excerpts from the submittals .
"Noise at the existing J25 CDP facility will not exceed COGCC noise
standards. The nearest property boundary (Exxon) is approximately 1.5
miles away with no line of sight, providing significant geographic relief.
8
Approximately 100 vertical feet of elevated terrain above the facility
separate the line of sight between the facility and the nearest property
boundary...."
No major noise generating equipment such as compressor units are proposed
for this measuring and monitoring facility.
Storm Water & Grading
An erosion and sediment control plan and Storm Water Management plan and CDPHE
permit are provided with the Application. Storm water management improvements are
in place.
Article VII Standards including Section 7-1101 Industrial Use Standards
The Applicant has adequately addressed the applicable provisions of Article VII subject
to compliance with conditions of approval, with a general summary provided below:
• There is no potable water demand or sanitation requirements associated with
the facility which is not manned on a regular basis. A waiver has been
requested from the water supply plan requirement.
• A portable toilet is located on the site and needs remain in place during
installation/construction periods or when operations or maintenance employees
are on site for longer periods.
• No new roads are proposed and existing roads provide legal access to the site.
In order to address technical compliance issues a waiver from Roadway
Standards should be approved.
• No geologic, slope or soils hazards have been identified for the site.
• No impacts on agricultural uses or adjoining properties are anticipated based on
the remote location and surrounding oil and gas activities. The site is fenced.
• A wildlife study was provided with general findings of no additional impacts from
the proposed uses. Some indirect impacts are anticipated from the presence of
personnel and noise on the site.
• The Greater Sage Grouse was addressed by the wildlife study including the
following conclusion: "Because the J25 CDP is a previously developed site, no
additional disturbance to sagebrush habitat within the NDIS mapped sage -
grouse production area would be removed by development of the project. An
increase in vehicle traffic could result in mortality due to collisions (road kill).
Certain features of the J25 CDP could provide hunting perches for raptors that
could contribute to an increase in sage -grouse mortality."
• Potential impacts on wetlands, water bodies are not anticipated. Erosion and
Sediment Control Plans address this concern along with Storm Water
Management Plans, and Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasure Plans
(SPCC)
• Air Quality Permits if any will be required in accordance with CDPHE
requirements.
9
• Additional documentation of dust mitigation plans for the roadways and site
need to be provided.
• Review of building code compliance as applicable for existing structures shall be
required.
• A Class I Cultural Resources Study was conducted by Flattops Archaeological
Consultants with a finding of "no historic properties affected".
• A Traffic Study reflecting minimal traffic and related impacts was provided.
• A reclamation plan is provided in the submittals.
• No other nuisance impacts including vibration have been identified or are
anticipated by the facility.
• Wild Fire protection issues are addressed in the Standards Section of the
Application.
V. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN

RE: J-25 CDP for Hunter Ridge Energy Services, LLC: LIPA-7520
Dear Glenn:
This office has performed a review of the documents provided for the Limited Impact
Application the J-25 CDP for Hunter Ridge Energy Services, LLC. The submittal was found to
be thorough and well organized. The following comments were generated:
1. The application materials state that employees are not onsite on a regular basis" so no sewer
or water services are planned on being provided. However the existing site plan has a note
that water is provided for "personal sanitary purposes" but then also states that no wast water
system exists. The Applicant should clarify the length and number of employees that are
typically on site and if some provisions are or should be made for sewer and/or water
services.
2. The Applicant has requested a waiver from providing a water supply plan. The above should
be determined prior to determining if a waiver should be granted.
3. The SPCC tab of the application materials included a site exhibit but that exhibit does not
show the proposed buildings that are on the Site Plam
4. The SPCC did not include the entire SPCC plan but rather just the site exhibit. The
Applicant should verify that the proposed uses do not require any revisions to the SPCC plan.
Feel free to call if you have any questions or comments.
Sincerely,
Mount.. Cross Engineering, Inc.

Hi Glenn,
I have reviewed the application materials for the Hunter Ridge Energy Services J25 Centralized Distribution Point, and
have the following questions/comments:
Have all of the buildings and facilities in this application already been constructed? In the Pre -application
Conference Summary, it was expressed that all of the facilities had already been constructed and that a permit
was requested for the existing facilities. The site map/plan in this document appears to reference Building #1,
Building #2, and Building #3 that already exist; however, in the Site Plan and Project Description there are two
additional "Future Buildings". One appears to be another water pump building and the other a LACT unit. Is the
applicant seeking approval for only the existing facilities, or for the future buildings as well?
As with my comments on the 003 Story Booster Compressor Station, I would like more clarification in regards
to the Nuisance Conditions section.
o Because Future Building #4 and #5 will be installed on existing disturbance, I am not concerned with
dust mitigation measures. However, it would be beneficial to know if the pad that was constructed for
the CDP resulted in new disturbance or if the site had originally been used for something else. If there
was new disturbance, I would like to see a note stating that proper dust control was used during the
process.
o Despite the fact that there are no occupied structures within 1,500' of the site, there does seem to be
the potential for some of the facilities on the site to produce air emissions that should be considered.
Please specify that the 3 generators on the site either received a APEN from the Air Pollution Control
Division or that it is believed one is currently not necessary (if they are diesel powered rather than
electric).
It appears that both SWMP and SPCC are adequate. I will defer to CDPHE and COGCC on this matter.
Hopefully the site visit should be able to answer most of these questions, but that's what I have for now.
Thanks,
Morgan 'nee

RE: Hunter Ridge Energy Services J25 Centralized Distribution Point
Dear Mr. Hartmann:
Colorad
Parks and Wildlife (CPW) would like to thank you for the opportunity to work with
Garfield County in the review of the Hunter Ridge Energy Services J25 Centralized Distribution
Point Facility. This facility is located approximately 18 miles north-northeast of Parachute,
Colorado on EnCana's North Parachute Ranch property in Section 25, T4S, R95W of the 6th
Principle Meridian. It is our understanding that this facility lies within the footprint of a
previously developed/disturbed site. In September 2009, CPW entered into an agreement with
EnCana Oil & Gas (USA) for a Wildlife Mitigation Plan for the North Parachute Ranch property
which includes the subject property proposed for this facility. CPW has consulted with EnCana
on this project and it is our understanding that the best management practices identified in the
North Parachute Ranch/CPW Wildlife Mitigation Plan will be incorporated into the development
of this project.
This site is located in a greater sage -grouse production area and black bear habitat. The best
management practices identified in the North Parachute Ranch/CPW Wildlife Mitigation Plan
are anticipated to address wildlife concerns.
Colorado Parks and Wildlife appreciates the opportunity to work with Garfield County on this
and other projects for the benefit of wildlife. If you have any questions please contact Scott
Hoyer, District Wildlife Manager, at 970-250-0873.
Sincerely,
JT Romatzke

On this date, I reviewed the Hunter Ridge Energy Services LLC, J-25 CDP plans. The
Fire District has no objections to move forward with permitting of the existing Central Delivery
Point with the additions of two more future structures. It is noted that if anything was to happen
at this complex that emergency services will be delayed due to the remote location.
Even with the Fire Districts review of the plans and or business it is the responsibility of
the owner to make sure the building complies with the International Fire Code 2009 Edition and
all possible code requirements. If you should have any further questions please feel free to
contact me.
