Va•rion P. r 4 2 Bill Barrett Corporation Jenkins Telecommunication Facility Jenkins Telecommunication Facility Bill Barrett Corporation Limited Impact Review Narrative Bill Barrett Corporation (BBC) is pursuing a Limited Impact Review (LIR) in Garfield County for the development of a telecommunication facility, the Jenkins Telecommunication Facility (JTF). The proposed site will be located on private property south of Silt, Colorado. The site will be defined as a telecommunication facility. The facility's main function will be to monitor BBC's operations remotely. The JTF will increase data efficiency and safety, while reducing the number of vehicles on county roads. 1.1 Description The purpose of the proposed JTF site is to (1)establish communications for monitoring wells, compressor stations, and other facilities operated by BBC and (2) remotely access and operate facilities. The proposed JTF will monitor BBC's Piceance field, including approximately 850 wells, 2 compressor stations, and 5 water management facilities, and provide access for BBC's Silt and Denver offices. As the BBC Piceance field grows in the number of wells, a need for access and other applications beyond the current system's capabilities is necessary. The proposed telecommunication tower considers cost, reliability and the need to support multiple simultaneous communication sessions (greater bandwidth). The proposed telecommunication tower is part of a new SCADA network design. SCADA (supervisory control and data acquisition) are centralized systems which monitor and control entire sites, or complexes of systems spread out over large areas. The current method of data delivery is twofold, the backhaul from the office to the Mamm Creek Compressor Station (Leased T1) and the endpoint system (Freewave 900 MHz). The endpoint system is responsible for both Ethernet delivery to the RTU (remote terminal unit, which connects to the physical unit, converts signal sensors to digital data) and long haul Ethernet communications across the field. Two bottle -neck areas of communication exist with the T1 (1.5 Mbps) and a single master Freewave radio (single entry point into the field). At each bottleneck point, data is lost and communications are decelerated. The proposed JTF, in coordination with the proposed Mamm Creek Compressor Station Telecommunications Facility and the proposed Jolley 4 Telecommunication Facility, will relay data to the BBC Silt and Denver offices. A Garfield County Limited Impact Review application will be submitted for the proposed Mamm Creek Compressor Station and the proposed Jolley 4 Telecommunication Facility separately. The proposed network will deliver a maximum of 50 Mbps with a 1 mSec of roundtrip time latency. The backbone will extend the high speed networking ability of the office throughout the field, the proposed Silt network figure is located in the Maps and Plans tab. A final advantage to the solution will be leveraging the existing T1 as an alternate route for SCADA polling in the event of an outage or maintenance period. This will further increase the overall reliability as both the leased T1 and private high capacity radio links will create a ring topology. The backbone will run directly from the Silt office to a master node (service point - 900 MHz, WiFi Hot Spot etc) at Jolley 4, then from Jolley 4 to a second master node called Jenkins Tower. From Jenkins tower, a final path will be installed to connect the Mamm Creek Compressor Station. A fourth high capacity radio link (not within the ring) will be installed from Mamm Creek to Bailey Compressor. Application Narrative Garfield County Limited Impact Review, 2012 Page 1 of 5 Bill Barrett Corporation Jenkins Telecommunication Facility The advantages of the proposed system are multiple points of field entry (3 Master 900 MHz radio systems), reduction of repeaters (majority of RTUs one -hop from the high speed network), and reduction of field network contention. The proposed site will require the installation of a 50 foot telecommunications tower with a 5 foot antenna. The tower will be supported by a foundation (6 ft x 6 ft). The engineered foundation will created on-site cement. The proposed telecommunication tower height is permissible as listed in Table 3-201, Zone Districts Dimensions, which states in the Rural Zone District "Telecommunication Facilities may exceed height provided they are approved by a Limited Impact Review." A solar array will provide power to the JFT. A communication radio equipment cabinet with environmental control and door lock will be installed. The cabinet will house battery and radio equipment for the tower. The cabinet figure is located in the Maps and Plans tab. The solar array and the cabinet will be installed on the 30 ft by 30 ft concrete pad. The JTF will not require an employee on-site and daily operations of the towers can be conducted remotely. Personnel will only access the proposed site if the tower requires physical maintenance. A copy of the Emergency Response Plan is provided in the Impact Analysis tab. Certifications of training can be provided upon request. The JTF will not require a permit from or registration with the Federal Aviation Agency (FAA) based on the FAA aeronautical study and the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) TOWAIR report. The FAA aeronautical report determined the tower will cause no hazard to air navigation. The proposed site location is not within 5 miles of an airport. The FAA aeronautical report and the TOWAIR report are provided in the Standards tab. Construction traffic is estimated to be less than 10 days. During the construction phase there will be four types of vehicles used to complete the installation of the communications tower. Half to one ton trucks with a potential of an equipment trailer, backhoe, cement truck and crane. The period of installation will consist of two phases, foundation construction and tower erection. Initially, cement truck will access the site to create the foundation. The foundation construction will take at the most 3 days with truck, backhoe and cement truck traffic to and from the location with an estimated trip count of 3 trips per day (the cement truck will only require one trip to location). Once the foundation is set, the foundation will need to cure for approximately one week. This cure period will require no access so no traffic is estimated. Weather permitting; the erection of the tower will take no more than two days. The type of traffic will consist of up to three pickups with a potential equipment trailer and a crane (estimated a 100 Ft crane will be used). During the installation of the structure, there may be multiple trips to and from the location during this period, with the crane only making one trip. Installation of the radio system equipment and alignment on the tower structure will follow completion of the communications tower installation. Traffic for this period will typically consist of a two day period with pickup traffic only (one or two vehicles). It is estimated that each vehicle will require at least two trips to and from the location per day. Technical issues will be addressed and the tower is estimated to be in operation by the end of the 3 week construction schedule. Once construction is completed, vehicles will not be scheduled to access the telecommunications facility tower daily. Throughout the year, traffic will be minimal considering site visits to perform maintenance (twice per year estimated) and site operation visits of one or two trips to the location per month. Traffic will consist of half to one ton truck vehicles. The traffic level report is located in the Impact Analysis tab. Application Narrative Garfield County Limited Impact Review, 2012 Page 2 of 5 Bill Barrett Corporation Jenkins Telecommunication Facility 1.2 Purpose and Need As the BBC Piceance field grows in the number of wells, a need for access and other applications will be necessary. The proposed telecommunication facility will result in improved communication and higher reliability. Reliability and the ability to have direct control over the network are keys to ensuring a communication system that meets the operation of BBC's field. Currently, BBC operations require personnel to physically visit and monitor sites. Increased vehicle traffic and decreased efficiency are associated with daily operations. The operations of the JTF will decrease the number of vehicles accessing the site and traveling on County Road 312 (Divide Creek Road). Personnel will not have to access the site daily to preform operations and maintenance. Information and data will be gathered and maintained remotely at manned Silt and Denver offices. The proposed communications tower and additional facilities will be monitored at all times; allowing BBC to control daily functions and respond to emergency situations. The telecommunication towers will increase safety by alerting personnel of conditions and allow BBC to take immediate action. Capabilities of remote access will allow BBC to remotely control flow, shut -down equipment, and maintain a safe production environment. BBC plans to increase natural gas production in the Piceance Basin over the next several years. The JTF is needed to create the capabilities of transferring increased amounts of data to allow BBC to manage planned gas volume increases effectively. The JTF outlined above will give BBC future streamlined communication capabilities for the projected increase in production. 1.3 Facilities and Equipment Summary The following section summarizes the structures and equipment that are proposed for the JTF.

The grading permit for the road access was obtained prior to LIR approval to allow vehicles and equipment to access the site in order to perform a geotechnical study for the proposed use. All associated financial securities will be Application Narrative Garfield County Limited Impact Review, 2012 Page 4 of 5 Bill Barrett Corporation Jenkins Telecommunication Facility processed with the JFC Land Use application. The approved grading permit and grading permit application are provided in the Erosion and Sediment tab. Application Narrative Garfield County Limited Impact Review, 2012 Page 5 of 5 Bill Barrett Corporation Jenkins Telecommunication Facility Jenkins Telecommunication Facility Bill Barrett Corporation Limited Impact Review Narrative Bill Barrett Corporation (BBC) is pursuing a Limited Impact Review (LIR) in Garfield County for the development of a telecommunication facility, the Jenkins Telecommunication Facility (JTF). The proposed site will be located on private property south of Silt, Colorado. The site will be defined as a telecommunication facility. The facility's main function will be to monitor BBC's operations remotely. The JTF will increase data efficiency and safety, while reducing the number of vehicles on county roads. 1.1 Description The purpose of the proposed JTF site is to (1)establish communications for monitoring wells, compressor stations, and other facilities operated by BBC and (2) remotely access and operate facilities. The proposed JTF will monitor BBC's Piceance field, including approximately 850 wells, 2 compressor stations, and 5 water management facilities, and provide access for BBC's Silt and Denver offices. As the BBC Piceance field grows in the number of wells, a need for access and other applications beyond the current system's capabilities is necessary. The proposed telecommunication tower considers cost, reliability and the need to support multiple simultaneous communication sessions (greater bandwidth). The proposed telecommunication tower is part of a new SCADA network design. SCADA (supervisory control and data acquisition) are centralized systems which monitor and control entire sites, or complexes of systems spread out over large areas. The current method of data delivery is twofold, the backhaul from the office to the Mamm Creek Compressor Station (Leased T1) and the endpoint system (Freewave 900 MHz). The endpoint system is responsible for both Ethernet delivery to the RTU (remote terminal unit, which connects to the physical unit, converts signal sensors to digital data) and long haul Ethernet communications across the field. Two bottle -neck areas of communication exist with the T1 (1.5 Mbps) and a single master Freewave radio (single entry point into the field). At each bottleneck point, data is lost and communications are decelerated. The proposed JTF, in coordination with the proposed Mamm Creek Compressor Station Telecommunications Facility and the proposed Jolley 4 Telecommunication Facility, will relay data to the BBC Silt and Denver offices. A Garfield County Limited Impact Review application will be submitted for the proposed Mamm Creek Compressor Station and the proposed Jolley 4 Telecommunication Facility separately. The proposed network will deliver a maximum of 50 Mbps with a 1 mSec of roundtrip time latency. The backbone will extend the high speed networking ability of the office throughout the field, the proposed Silt network figure is located in the Maps and Plans tab. A final advantage to the solution will be leveraging the existing T1 as an alternate route for SCADA polling in the event of an outage or maintenance period. This will further increase the overall reliability as both the leased T1 and private high capacity radio links will create a ring topology. The backbone will run directly from the Silt office to a master node (service point - 900 MHz, WiFi Hot Spot etc) at Jolley 4, then from Jolley 4 to a second master node called Jenkins Tower. From Jenkins tower, a final path will be installed to connect the Mamm Creek Compressor Station. A fourth high capacity radio link (not within the ring) will be installed from Mamm Creek to Bailey Compressor. Application Narrative Garfield County Limited Impact Review, 2012 Page 1 of 5 Bill Barrett Corporation Jenkins Telecommunication Facility The advantages of the proposed system are multiple points of field entry (3 Master 900 MHz radio systems), reduction of repeaters (majority of RTUs one -hop from the high speed network), and reduction of field network contention. The proposed site will require the installation of a 50 foot telecommunications tower with a 5 foot antenna. The tower will be supported by a foundation (6 ft x 6 ft). The engineered foundation will created on-site cement. The proposed communication tower height is permissible as listed in Table 3-201, Zone Districts Dimensions, which states in the Rural Zone District "Telecommunication Facilities may exceed height provided they are approved by a Limited Impact Review" A solar array will provide power to the JFT. A communication radio equipment cabinet with environmental control and door lock will be installed. The cabinet will house battery and radio equipment for the tower. The cabinet figure is located in the Maps and Plans tab. The solar array and the cabinet will be installed on the 30 ft by 30 ft concrete pad. The JTF will not require an employee on-site and daily operations of the towers can be conducted remotely. Personnel will only access the proposed site if the tower requires physical maintenance. A copy of the Emergency Response Plan is provided in the Impact Analysis tab. Certifications of training can be provided upon request. The JTF will not require a permit from or registration with the Federal Aviation Agency (FAA) based on the FAA aeronautical study and the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) TOWAIR report. The FAA aeronautical report determined the tower will cause no hazard to air navigation. The proposed site location is not within 5 miles of an airport. The FAA aeronautical report and the TOWAIR report are provided in the Telecommunications Facilities Standards tab. Construction traffic is estimated to be less than 10 days. During the construction phase there will be four types of vehicles used to complete the installation of the communications tower. Half to one ton trucks with a potential of an equipment trailer, backhoe, cement truck and crane. The period of installation will consist of two phases, foundation construction and tower erection. Initially, cement truck will access the site to create the foundation. The foundation construction will take at the most 3 days with truck, backhoe and cement truck traffic to and from the location with an estimated trip count of 3 trips per day (the cement truck will only require one trip to location). Once the foundation is set, the foundation will need to cure for approximately one week. This cure period will require no access so no traffic is estimated. Weather permitting; the erection of the tower will take no more than two days. The type of traffic will consist of up to three pickups with a potential equipment trailer and a crane (estimated a 100 Ft crane will be used). During the installation of the structure, there may be multiple trips to and from the location during this period, with the crane only making one trip. Installation of the radio system equipment and alignment on the tower structure will follow completion of the communications tower installation. Traffic for this period will typically consist of a two day period with pickup traffic only (one or two vehicles). It is estimated that each vehicle will require at least two trips to and from the location per day. Technical issues will be addressed and the tower is estimated to be in operation by the end of the 3 week construction schedule. Once construction is completed, vehicles will not be scheduled to access the telecommunications facility tower daily. Throughout the year, traffic will be minimal considering site visits to perform maintenance (twice per year estimated) and site operation visits of one or two trips to the location Application Narrative Garfield County Limited Impact Review, 2012 Page 2 of 5 Bill Barrett Corporation Jenkins Telecommunication Facility per month. Traffic will consist of half to one ton truck vehicles. The traffic level report is located in the Impact Analysis tab. 1.2 Purpose and Need As the BBC Piceance field grows in the number of wells, a need for access and other applications will be necessary. The proposed telecommunication facility will result in improved communication and higher reliability. Reliability and the ability to have direct control over the network are keys to ensuring a communication system that meets the operation of BBC's field. Currently, BBC operations require personnel to physically visit and monitor sites. Increased vehicle traffic and decreased efficiency are associated with daily operations. The operations of the JTF will decrease the number of vehicles accessing the site and traveling on County Road 312 (Divide Creek Road). Personnel will not have to access the site daily to preform operations and maintenance. Information and data will be gathered and maintained remotely at manned Silt and Denver offices. The proposed communications tower and additional facilities will be monitored at all times; allowing BBC to control daily functions and respond to emergency situations. The telecommunication towers will increase safety by alerting personnel of conditions and allow BBC to take immediate action. Capabilities of remote access will allow BBC to remotely control flow, shut -down equipment, and maintain a safe production environment. BBC plans to increase natural gas production in the Piceance Basin over the next several years. The JTF is needed to create the capabilities of transferring increased amounts of data to allow BBC to manage planned gas volume increases effectively. The JTF outlined above will give BBC future streamlined communication capabilities for the projected increase in production. 1.3 Facilities and Equipment Summary The following section summarizes the structures and equipment that are proposed for the JTF.

A site map showing locations of any existing structures, Waterbodies or hydrologic features on the site, including intermittent water features, Wetlands, and the 100 year Floodplain boundaries. The site map is located in the Maps and Plans Tab. Floodplain and hydrologic features figures are located in the Erosion and Sediment tab. 2.1 Drainage Structures. a. Locations of existing and proposed drainage structures or natural drainage features affecting site drainage on the parcel and within 10 feet adjacent to the site boundary, including street gutters, storm sewers, drainage channels, and other water conveyance structures; and Wetlands or other Waterbodies receiving storm runoff from the site. b. Preliminary engineering design and construction features for drainage structures to be constructed. Erosion and Sediment Narrative Garfield County Limited Impact Review, 2012 Page 1 of 4 Bill Barrett Corporation Jenkins Telecommunication Facility The grading plan is located in the Erosion and Sediment Tab. Engineering drawings are located in the Maps and Plans tab. 2.2 Topography. Existing topography at reasonable contour intervals to provide necessary detail of the site. The map should extend a minimum of 10 feet beyond the property line and show the location of the property line. The site plan is located in the Maps and Plans Tab. The grading plans are located in the Erosion and Sediment tab. 2.3 Grading Plan. A grading plan showing the proposed topography at reasonable contour intervals that provides necessary detail of the site. The plan shall show elevations, dimensions, location, extent and Slope of all proposed clearing, and Grading including building site and driveway grades. The grading plan for the proposed site and access road is located in the Erosion and Sediment Tab. 2.4 Soil Stockpile and Snow Storage Areas. Probable locations of soil stockpiles and snow storage areas. Based on the grading plan the amount of soil removed will be minimal. Any excavated earth will be either used to backfill around foundations or spread evenly around the exterior of the pad. Little to no erosion is anticipated. Snow storage will not be required since the proposed use will not require personnel to visit the site. 2.5 Drainage Plan. Proposed drainage plan. A drainage plan is not required for the proposed site based on the minimal size of the site, the lack of surface water features within a 1000 ft radius of the site, and the less than 1 acre size exempts the site from the CDPHE stormwater requirements. The proposed use will not require the use or storage of water on-site. 2.6 Equipment Storage Areas. Location of storage areas designated for equipment, fuel, lubricants, chemical, and waste storage with an explanation of spill containment structures. No liquids or semi-solid materials will be transported or stored on the proposed telecommunication facility. 2.7 Temporary Roads. Location of temporary roads designed for use during the construction period. A temporary road will not be required for the construction duration. The grading permit for the access road is located in the Supporting Documents tab. 2.8 Areas of Steep Slope. Areas with Slope of20% or greater shall be identified by location and percentage of Slope, both for the existing site conditions and within the developed area. No slopes of 20% or greater exist on the site prior or after development. The slope hazard figure is located in the Erosion and Sediment tab. Erosion and Sediment Narrative Garfield County Limited Impact Review, 2012 Page 2 of 4 Bill Barrett Corporation Jenkins Telecommunication Facility 2.9. Construction Schedule. Construction schedule indicating the anticipated starting and completion time periods of the site grading and/or construction sequence, including the installation and removal of erosion and sediment control measures, and the estimated duration of exposure of each area prior to the completion of temporary erosion and sediment control measures. Clearing & grubbing, grading, and excavation (for concrete pads) will be complete in one day. The installation of the BMP's will be completed in half of a day. Construction is estimated to be less than 10 days. The period of installation will consist of two phases, foundation construction and tower erection. The foundation construction will take at the most 3 days. Once the foundation is set, the foundation will need to cure for approximately one week. Weather permitting; the erection of the tower will take no more than two days. 2.10 Permanent Stabilization. A brief description of how the site will be stabilized after construction is completed. The disturbance areas around the pad are minimal. Areas of disturbance around the site and access road will be revegetated (in accordance with the Jenkins Weed Management Plan and Reclamation Plan located in the Impact Analysis tab) for final stabilization. The engineering plans are located in the Maps and Plans tab and erosion controls and BMPs are located in the Erosion and Sediment plan. 2.11 Erosion Control Measures. Plan view drawings of all erosion and sediment control measures showing approximate locations and site drainage patterns for construction phases and final design elements. Text may be necessary to accompany and explain the drawings. Typical erosion control measures should be depicted using standard map symbols. The erosion control plan is located in the Erosion and Sediment tab. 2.12 Estimated Cost. Estimated total Cost, including installation and maintenance. The cost of the tower including grading, foundation, installation, and maintenance is estimated at $37, 190. The estimated costs include labor and crane costs. 2.13 Calculations. Any calculations made for determining rainfall, runoff sizing any sediment basins, diversions, conveyance, or detention/retention facilities. The area is located on a plateau with an annual precipitation of 11.58 inches. There are no surface water features within 1000 ft of the site. The tower foot print will be less than 108 square feet of surface area. 2.14 Neighboring Areas. A description of neighboring areas with regard to land use and existing pertinent features such as lakes, streams, structures, roads, etc. Agricultural is the surrounding land use. County Road 311 exists to the east of the site. There are no surface water features within 1000 ft of the site. The hydrologic features figure is located in the Erosion and Sediment tab. 2.15 Stormwater Management. A description of the stormwater management planning concept for the site, including both structural and nonstructural best management practices. Erosion and Sediment Narrative Garfield County Limited Impact Review, 2012 Page 3 of 4 Bill Barrett Corporation Jenkins Telecommunication Facility The proposed site will be less than 1 acre in size and will not require a CDPHE stormwater permit. 2.16 Stormwater Management Plan. Copy of the stormwater management plan application to CDPHE with date of submittal. The proposed site will be less than 1 acre in size and will not require a CDPHE stormwater permit. 2.17 Hydraulic Calculations. Hydrologic, hydraulic, and all other calculations used to size and design drainage facilities and/or structural BMPs. Hydraulic calculations will not be required for the proposed site. 2.18 Maintenance Requirements. Maintenance requirements for all proposed BMPs should be discussed including access, schedules, costs, and designation of a responsible party. Maintenance is an important part of a stormwater management. Maintenance includes inspection and the physical maintenance of the BMP's. Inspections shall occur, at a minimum, every 2 weeks or after a precipitation event causing erosion. Maintenance cleaning, repair and/or replacement shall be based off of the findings of these inspections. Straw wattles will be installed at the proposed site. Straw wattles shall be trenched into the existing grade per the details. Sediment shall be removed from behind the wattle no later than when the sediment has built up half way up the wattle. Wattles shall be repaired or replaced upon the deterioration of the straw or netting to the point where the wattle function has been compromised. Wattles shall be removed after final stabilization has been achieved.

Owner further agrees that in the event any third -parties request that Owner grant the right to install subsequent telecommunication facility(ies) on lands owned by Owner, Owner will require such party to conduct coordination studies to insure that interference does not occur with Operator's telecommunication facilities, and that any subsequent tower site located on Owner's lands must first be approved by Operator . 6.

This section includes exhibits and descriptions of how Bill Barrett Corporation (BBC) will ensure that impacts will be mitigated and standards will be satisfied. 2.1 Adjacent Property Landowners An address list of real property adjacent to the Jenkins Telecommunications Facility (JTF) parcel, the mailing address for each of the property owners and the appropriate portion of a Garfield County Assessor's Map showing the project site location and all public and private landowners adjacent to the JTF parcel are provided in the Impact Analysis Tab. Also, in accordance with Garfield County's §24-65.5-101, a copy of the names of all mineral interest owners of the subject property is located in the Impact Analysis Tab. 2.2 Adjacent Land Use Existing use of adjacent property and neighboring properties are agricultural and all adjacent parcels are zoned rural. No additional impact would occur to the abutting property owners from the construction and/or operation of the JTF. Impact Analysis Narrative Garfield County Limited Impact Land Use Application, 2012 Page 1 of 3 Bill Barrett Corporation Jenkins Telecommunication Facility 2.3 Site Features There are no streams, areas subject to flooding, high ground water areas, and lakes within the project area. No streams or other surface water features exist within 1000 ft of the proposed site location. There are no anticipated impacts or ground water containments associated with the proposed site. A Hydrologic Features Figure is provided in the Impact Analysis Tab. The area consists of pinyon -juniper woodland. Climate of the area is arid with an average annual precipitation of 11.58 inches according to the Western Regional Climate Center. Site photos are provided in the Impact Analysis Documents Tab. 2.4 Soil Characteristics The JCF is underlain by soils of the Torriorthents- Camborthids -Rock outcrop complex, steep. The soils are shallow to deep unweathered bedrock. The soil is well drained with very low water capacity. 2.5 Geology and Hazard There are no landslides in the vicinity of the site and the hazard to landslides and rockfalls are low. The site is located outside the area of slope hazards as depicted in the Slope Hazards Map located under the Impact Analysis tab. 2.6 Groundwater and Aquifer Recharge Areas Floodplain and flood fringe delineations are depicted in the 100 -year Floodplain Area Map located under the Impact Analysis tab. The 100 -year floodplain boundaries are well outside the immediate vicinity of the Jenkins Telecommunications Facility as shown on Garfield County maps. Bill Barrett has prepared and utilizes the state approved Mamm Creek Stormwater Management Plan (SWMP). Implementation of the SWMP ensures that activities comply with stormwater management as required by Garfield County, the State of Colorado, and the EPA. Implementation of the plan also mitigates the potential for Bill Barrett to pollute surface runoff, stream flow, or groundwater. The proposed site will be less than one (1) acre. CDPHE does not required a stormwater construction permit for sites less than one (1) acre. Hydrologic Features Figure is provided in the Erosion and Sediment tab. 2.7 Environmental Effects Determination of the existing environmental conditions on the parcel to be developed and the effects of development on those conditions, including: a. Determination of the long-term and short-term effect on flora and fauna; c. Determination of the effect on designated environmental resources, including critical Wildlife Habitat; d. Impacts on Wildlife and domestic animals through creation of hazardous attractions, alteration of existing native vegetation, blockade of migration routes, use patterns, or other disruptions; BBC contracted WestWater Engineering Inc. (WWE) to prepare an Environmental Impact Assessment for the JTF. The assessment determined the location of the tower will not negatively impact flora or fauna. The Environmental Impact Assessment, prepared by WWE, can be located in the Impact Analysis tab. Descriptions of existing flora and fauna habitat, wetlands and migration routes present in the vicinity of the project site can be found in the report. Impact Analysis Narrative Garfield County Limited Impact Land Use Application, 2012 Page 2 of 3 Bill Barrett Corporation Jenkins Telecommunication Facility b. Determination of the effect on significant archaeological, cultural, paleontological, and historic resources BBC contracted Grand River Institute (GRI) Inc. to conduct a Class I cultural resource inventory for the proposed JTF. The Class 1 Research report is located in the Impact Analysis Tab. The purpose of the cultural resources investigation was to identify previously recorded resources within or near the project area that may be adversely affected by the proposed action. As a result of the files search, seventeen cultural resource projects have been identified as conducted in the general vicinity. GRI determined findings were located well outside of the proposed area of disturbance. Recommendations were that no further work is needed for the proposed project. Details on research findings, paleoclimate, and assessment of cultural resources can be found in the report. e. Evaluation of any potential radiation hazard that may have been identified by the State or County Health Departments; and No potential radiation hazard has been identified by the state or County Health Department. f Spill prevention control and counter measures plan, if applicable. No liquids or semi-solid materials will be transported or stored on the proposed telecommunication facility. A Spill prevention control and counter measures plan (SPCC) is not required for this site. 2.8 Nuisance Personnel will not be required to access the site daily, thus eliminating traffic and associated noise with personnel vehicles. Two trips per a year are estimated to perform maintenance and site operation visits of one or two trips to the location per month. Traffic will consist of half to one ton truck vehicles. For the duration of construction, the noise level will consist of crane operation noise, portable generator for operation of air tools and movement of large amounts of steel members for the tower structure. Noise will be minimal from hand tool use and engine noise of the vehicles. During normal operation of the tower, no noise levels will be produced as the site is powered by solar with radio equipment housed within an enclosure. Lighting will not be installed at the JTF. The site was designed to minimize impact and adhere to the telecommunication standards described in the Standards tab.

Prepared for: Bill Barrett Corporation Silt, Colorado Prepared by: WestWater Engineering 2516 Foresight Circle #1 Grand Junction, CO 81505 August 2012 INTRODUCTION At the request of Bill Barrett Corporation (Bill Barrett), WestWater Engineering (WestWater) has prepared a Garfield County Impact Analysis for a proposed communications facility (Figure 1). The proposed project consists of an access road approximately 1,620 ft in length, and a tower approximately 60 ft in overall height placed on a 36 ft2 concrete pad, as well as a 24 ft2 radio equipment cabinet pad area, and a small solar power system approximately 37.7 ft2. The area was analyzed for environmental impacts on August 9, 2012. Permission to access private lands for biological surveys in a portion of the subject area was denied by the landowner (Figure 1). This document reports the results and analysis of the findings that are pertinent to Garfield County Land Use regulations (2008) that apply to this project. The site is located on private lands south of Silt, CO in Section 30, Township 6 South, Range 91 West, 6th Principal Meridian. Access to the project area is available via Garfield County Road 311. The current primary land uses of the area include livestock grazing, wildlife habitat, and natural resource extraction including natural gas development. Survey Methods The project area was surveyed for threatened, endangered, or sensitive plants and wildlife, raptors, noxious weeds, and potential Army Corps of Engineers jurisdictional Waters of the U.S. by WestWater biologists on August 9, 2012. Surveys for special status plants and noxious weeds were conducted within 30 meters of the proposed tower site and access road. Observations of reference populations made within one week of the survey determined that the species with potential to occur in the project area would be identifiable at the time of the survey. Pedestrian raptor surveys were conducted at approximately 50 meter intervals during or near the active nesting period for most raptor species in the project area. Surveys were designed to find all existing nest sites, both occupied and unoccupied, that might occur. Survey efforts focused on the mature pinyon - juniper woodlands within 0.25 miles of the project, visually inspecting trees for nests. Data locations were recorded using handheld Global Positioning System (GPS) units (Datum: NAD83, Zone 13) and photographs were taken of the habitat, terrain, and biological features found during the survey. Sensitive wildlife species surveys were conducted throughout the survey area with an emphasis on detecting areas of potentially suitable habitat. SECTION 4-502 E. - ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS EXISTING ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS WATERS OF THE U.S. — Army Corps of Engineers (ACOE) WestWater biologists determined that no wetlands or drainages showing characteristics of Waters of the U.S. (WOUS) would be affected by construction of the communications facility. VEGETATION The existing vegetation immediately surrounding the project site consists of stunted pinyon juniper woodlands. Common plant species observed in the area are shown in Table 1. Table 1. Plant species observed and known to occur in the nroiect area.

Harrington's beardtongue was not detected near the project during surveys. No suitable habitat for the species was identified in the project area; this area is below the normal elevation range for the species and the vegetation communities in the project area are not consistent with those where the penstemon is typically observed. Noxious Weeds Cheatgrass (State "C" List) is scattered in the area, and was the only noxious weed species listed by the State of Colorado (2005) detected in the project area. WILDLIFE Threatened, Endangered, Sensitive Wildlife No threatened, endangered, or sensitive wildlife species would be expected to occur in the project area (BLM 2009, FWS 2009). Storm water from the project area drains to the Colorado River upstream of designated critical habitat for four species of fish (Colorado pikeminnow — Ptychocheilus lucius, razorback sucker — Xyrauchen texanus, bonytail — Gila elegans, and humpback chub — Gila cypha). Three BLM sensitive fish species (bluehead sucker — Catostomus discobolus, flannelmouth sucker — Catostomus latipinnis, and roundtail chub — Gila robusta) also occupy the Colorado River downstream of the project. Raptors Nesting season for raptor species in this area takes place from early -April to mid-August. At least ten raptor species may nest in suitable habitats near the project area (Table 2). The most common raptor species observed in the area include American Kestrel, Cooper's Hawk, Great Horned Owl, and Red- tailed Hawk. Table 2. Raptor species that may nest near the proiect area.

Approximately 24.31 acres of potential raptor nesting habitat was surveyed. A significant amount of potential raptor nesting habitat within 0.25 miles of the project site was not surveyed because access to private land was not granted by the landowner. One unoccupied raptor nest is known to exist within 0.25 miles of the proposed project (COHA — Figure 2). This nest showed no signs of recent occupancy by raptors. The pinyon juniper woodlands and cliffs surrounding the project provide potential raptor nesting habitat (Figure 2). The habitat that would be affected by the project is of poor- to marginal quality for nesting raptors due to a short average tree size (10-12 feet) and canopy structure. Birds of Conservation Concern, Migratory, and Non -migratory Birds (other than raptors) WestWater biologists evaluated the project area for the potential for bird species that could be affected by the project (Table 3). Birds of Conservation Concern (BCC) are species listed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) that are priorities for conservation action (FWS 2008). The goal is to prevent or remove the need for additional endangered species act (ESA) bird listings by implementing proactive management and conservation actions. BCC species with potential to occur in the project area are provided in Table 3 (Andrews & Righter 1992, Kingery 1998, Poole 2012, Righter et al 2004). Table 3.

Possibly nests in pinyon juniper woodlands in the project area. *BCC = Birds of Conservation Concern (FWS 2008); BLMS = BLM Sensitive Species (BLM 2009) WestWater Engineering Page 3 of 10 August 2012 The woodlands in the surrounding area provide nesting and foraging habitat for various migratory and non -migratory bird species, depending on the season of the year. Black -billed Magpie, Common Raven, Mountain Bluebird, Mourning Dove, and Western Meadowlark were observed during surveys. American Elk and Mule Deer In addition to a small resident population of mule deer that use the area year-round, migratory elk and mule deer utilize the area extensively during the winter months. The project area is located within elk and mule deer winter range. The project is within mule deer critical winter range and adjacent to elk winter concentration areas as mapped by Colorado Parks and Wildlife's (CPW) Natural Diversity Information Source (NDIS 2012) (Figures 3 & 4). During surveys, WestWater biologists recorded significant winter use by big game in the project area. Black Bear and Mountain Lion CPW-NDIS mapping shows the site to be within overall ranges for black bear and mountain lion (NDIS 2012). Small Mammals Common small mammal species in the project area include coyote (Canis latrans), cottontail (Sylvilagus spp.), and a multitude of rodent species. Northern pocket gopher (State species of concern - Thamomys talpoides macrotis) is known to occur in the geographical vicinity but was not observed near the project site. Reptiles Several species of reptiles likely occur within and near the project area, including the western terrestrial garter snake (Thamnophis elegans) and gopher (bull) snake (Pituophis catenifer sayi) (Hammerson 1999). Midget faded rattlesnake (BLM sensitive — Crotalus viridis concolor) exists in Garfield County, but is unlikely to occur near the project site. Aquatic Species No perennial water sources that would support aquatic life exist near the project. Implementation of typical stormwater best management practices along the access road would be sufficient to minimize impacts to aquatic species downstream. SECTION 4-502 (8) (a) Determination of Long and Short-term Effects on Flora and Fauna FLORA Native vegetation consisting mostly of late seral stage pinyon juniper woodlands would be removed for development of this project. Vegetation surrounding the project area but outside the project footprint will not be affected on a long or short-term basis and will likely remain in its present condition. FAUNA Raptors The pinyon juniper woodlands affected by the project provide poor to marginal quality nesting habitat for raptors; one unoccupied nest site was identified within 0.25 miles of the site. The nest is located approximately 395 meters from the proposed tower site and approximately 316 meters from the nearest portion of the proposed access road. The nest is not in danger of being removed by construction and indirect effects are unlikely as there is no direct line -of -sight from the nest to the project due to intervening vegetation and topographical features. The possibility for negative effects is related to the potential for raptor species to have collisions with the tower structure. The chances for collisions are likely to be short term as raptors that inhabit the general WestWater Engineering Page 4 of 10 August 2012 area become aware of the presence of the new structure. The tower should have no long-term effects on raptor populations. American Elk and Mule Deer The late seral stage pinyon juniper woodlands affected by the project do not provide a valuable food source for deer or elk and the primary habitat values provided would be thermal and escape cover. This habitat type is neither limited nor unique in the project area and negative affects related to construction of the project are likely to be minimal. The project would, however, contribute to the cumulative effects of habitat modification and fragmentation due to development in big game winter range. Deer and elk populations in the area have become somewhat habituated to human activity in the area given the scale of development in the region, and any additional indirect impacts from construction of this project would be unlikely. No migration corridors will be affected. Vehicle speeds and traffic volumes along access roads are likely to be low and vehicle related mortality is unlikely. Black Bear and Mountain Lion No vegetation will be lost that would affect black bear or mountain lion. Indirect effects from construction disturbance should not impact either species. Potential encounters of black bear with construction personnel could potentially occur if garbage or food is available to resident bears. Incidences with human -black bear interactions sometimes result in the euthanasia of offending bears by the CPW and would be the most conceivable potential impact on either species. Birds, Small Mammals, and Reptiles A small amount of nesting habitat for several migratory bird species, including BCC species, would be directly affected by the project. Affects of habitat loss to these species are expected to be minor due to the large amount of similar habitat available in the surrounding area. Indirect disturbance to nesting migratory birds within 100 feet of the project could occur during construction. Vehicle speeds and volumes along access roads are likely to be similar to present trends and additional vehicle related mortality is unlikely. SECTION 4-502 (8) (c) (1) Determination of the effect on significant environmental resources -- critical wildlife habitat The development of the project is not expected to significantly affect any critical wildlife habitat for any wildlife species. Potential issues are outlined below. • Removal of native vegetation: A small amount of late seral stage pinyon juniper woodland would be removed for construction of the access road and communication facility within mule deer critical winter range, elk winter concentration area, and nesting habitat for migratory birds. This habitat type is neither limited nor unique in the area, although the project would contribute to cumulative effects of habitat modification and fragmentation in the region. • Creation of hazardous obstructions: The potential exists that bird mortality may result from collisions with the tower structure. Due to the high visibility of the structure, it is unlikely to result in significant bird mortality. The physical attributes of the structure are not likely to attract wildlife such that mortality will occur. No portions of the project site (tower structure or support facilities) will introduce features that would likely entrap or harm terrestrial wildlife that occur in the area. • Indirect Construction Effects: The project will contribute to short term cumulative effects of increased human presence during the construction period. The presence of additional personnel and increased noise levels has potential to affect wildlife in a negative manner depending on the timing and duration of project construction.

The proposed project consists of an access road approximately 1,620 ft in length, and a tower approximately 60 ft in overall height placed on a 36 ft2 concrete pad, as well as a 24 ft2 radio equipment cabinet pad area, and a small solar power system approximately 37.7 ft2. The site is located on private lands south of Silt, CO in Section 30, Township 6 South, Range 91 West, 6th Principal Meridian (Figure 1). Access to the project area is available via Garfield County Road 311. The current primary land uses of the area include pastureland, wildlife habitat, and natural resource extraction including natural gas development. 1.2 General Survey Information Mapped soil types, as published by the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), were reviewed to determine the soil types and expected natural vegetation characteristics at the project site (NRCS 2012). Vegetation types have been determined through field identification of plants, aerial photography, and on - the -ground assessments. Identification of plant species was aided by using pertinent published field guides (Whitson et al. 2001, CWMA 2007, Kershaw et al. 1998, Weber and Wittmann 2001). Photographs were taken of the general project location, vegetation, terrain, and specific weed findings. Locations of weeds and other features included in this report were recorded with the aid of a handheld global positioning system (GPS) receiver using NAD83 map datum, with all coordinate locations based on the Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) coordinate system in UTM Zone 13. 2.0 LANDSCAPE SETTING 2.1 Vegetation and Climate The undisturbed native vegetation surrounding the project site is composed of sagebrush shrublands and pinyon juniper woodlands (Table 1). Common plant species observed in the area are shown in Table 1. Table 1. Plant species observed and known to occur in the nroiect area.

The elevation at the project site is approximately 6,100 feet. 3.0 NOXIOUS WEEDS 3.1 Introduction to Noxious Weeds Noxious weeds are plants that are aggressive competitors with native plants when non-native to an area. Most have come from Europe or Asia, either accidentally or as ornamentals that have escaped. Once established in a new environment, they tend to spread quickly because the insects, diseases, and animals that normally control them are absent. Noxious weeds are spread by man, animals, water, and wind. Prime locations for the establishment of noxious weeds include roadsides, construction sites, areas that are overused by animals or humans, wetlands, and riparian corridors. Subsequent to soil disturbances, vegetation communities can be susceptible to infestations of invasive or exotic weed species. Vegetation removal and soil disturbance during construction can create optimal conditions for the establishment of invasive, non-native species. Construction equipment traveling from weed -infested areas into weed -free areas could disperse noxious or invasive weed seeds and propagates, resulting in the establishment of these weeds in previously weed -free areas. The Colorado Noxious Weed Act (State of Colorado 2005) requires local governing bodies to develop noxious weed management plans. Both the State of Colorado and Garfield County maintain a list of plants that are considered to be noxious weeds. The State of Colorado noxious weed list includes three categories. List A species must be eradicated whenever detected. List B species include weeds whose WestWater Engineering Page 2 of 8 August 2012 spread should be halted. List C species are widespread, but the State will assist local jurisdictions which choose to manage those weeds. The Garfield County Weed Advisory Board has compiled a list of 21 plants from the State list considered to be noxious weeds within the county (see Appendix A). The Garfield County Weed Advisory Board has duties to: 1. Develop a noxious weed list, 2. Develop a weed management plan for designated noxious weeds, and 3. Recommend to the Board of County Commissioners that identified landowners submit an integrated weed management plan for their properties. 3.2 Noxious Weed Occurrences Cheatgrass was the only listed noxious weed present within 100 feet of the site, and is found as scattered to dense infestations in the general area. Weed control efforts are an ongoing part of natural gas and agricultural operations in the area and because the proposed tower site is in close proximity to existing projects, the site is not heavily infested by noxious weeds. In areas where soil disturbances have created growing conditions that favor non-native vegetation, several nuisance weed species are present. These plants can negate revegetation efforts and cause losses due to decreased seeding success and associated costs. The presence of these plants creates increased competition for resources and can negatively affect desirable native plant species. Plants in this category observed in the project area include horehound (Marrubium vulgare), curly -cup gumweed (Grindelia squarrosa), kochia (Bassia scoparia), lambsquarters (Chenopodium album), prickly lettuce (Lactuca serriola), Russian thistle (Salsola spp.), tumble mustard (Sisymbrium altissimum), and yellow sweet clover (Melilotus officinalis). These nuisance weeds often occur on disturbed soils such as those found near the project area. 3.3 Integrated Weed Management Control of invasive species is a difficult task and requires intensive on-going control measures. Care must be taken to prevent damage to desirable plant species during treatments to prevent further infestations by other pioneer invaders. Weed management is best achieved through a variety of methods over a long period of time including inventory (surveys), direct treatments, prevention through best management practices, monitoring of treatment efficacy, and subsequent detection efforts. Weed management is often reserved to "control" of existing species and prevention of further infestations (existing and new species) rather than eradication. After successful and effective management, decreases in infestation size and density can be expected, and after several years of successful management practices, eradication is sometimes possible. 3.4 Prevention and Assessment of Noxious Weed Infestations Weed management is costly and heavy infestations may exceed the economic threshold for practical treatment. Prevention is especially valuable in the case of noxious weed management. Several simple practices should be employed to prevent most weed infestations. The following practices should be adopted for any activity to reduce the costs of noxious weed control through prevention. The practices include: • Prior to delivery to the site, equipment should be thoroughly cleaned of soils remaining from previous construction sites which may be contaminated with noxious weeds. • If working in sites with weed -seed contaminated soil, equipment should be cleaned of potentially seed -bearing soils and vegetative debris at the infested area prior to moving to uncontaminated terrain. • All maintenance vehicles should be regularly cleaned of soil. WestWater Engineering Page 3 of 8 August 2012 • Avoid driving vehicles through areas where weed infestations exist. Assessment of the existence and extent of noxious weeds for an area is essential for the development of an integrated weed management plan. This report provides an initial assessment of the occurrence of noxious weeds for the project area. In order to continue effective management of noxious weeds, further inventory and analysis is necessary to 1) determine the effectiveness of the past treatment strategies; 2) modify the treatment plan, if necessary; and 3) detect new infestations early, which would result in more economical treatments. 3.5 Treatment and Control of Noxious Weed Infestations Control methods for common listed noxious weed species found in the project area are described in Table 3. Table 3. Control methods for noxious weeds observed in project area Common Name Scientific name USDA Symbol Type Control Methods Cheatgrass Anisantha tectorum BRTE Annual Herbicide treatment including pre- and post -emergent treatments, tillage, and reseeding with native cool -season grasses. 3.6 General Recommended Treatment Strategies The following treatment strategies are presented for reference. It is important to know whether the target is an annual, biennial, or perennial to select strategies that effectively control and eliminate the target. Treatment strategies vary depending on plant type, which are summarized in Tables 4 and 5. Herbicides should not always be the first treatment of choice when other methods can be effectively employed. Table 4. Treatment Strategies for Annual and Biennial Noxious Weeds Target: Prevent Seed Production 1. Hand grub (pull), hoe, till, cultivate in rosette stage and before flowering or seed maturity. If seeds develop, cut and bag seed heads. 2. Cut roots with a spade just below soil level. 3. Treat with herbicide in rosette or bolting stage, before flowering. 4. Mow biennials after bolting stage, before seed set. Mowing annuals will not prevent flowering, but can reduce total seed production. (Sirota 2004) Table 5. Treatment Strategies for Perennials Target: Deplete nutrient reserves in root system, prevent seed production 1. Allow plants to expend as much energy from root system as possible, do not treat when first emerging in spring, but allow growth to bud/bloom stage. If seeds develop, cut and bag if possible. 2. Herbicide treatment at bud to bloom stage or in the fall (recommended after August 15 when natural precipitation is present). In the fall, plants draw nutrients into the roots for winter storage. Herbicides will be drawn down to the roots more efficiently at this time due to translocation of nutrients to roots rather than leaves. If the weed patch has been present for a long period of time, another season of seed production is not as important as getting the herbicide into the root system. Spraying in fall (after middle August) will kill the following year's shoots, which are being formed on the roots at this time. WestWater Engineering Page 4 of 8 August 2012 Table 5. Treatment Strategies for Perennials Target: Deplete nutrient reserves in root system, prevent seed production 3. Mowing usually is not recommended because the plants will flower anyway; seed production should be reduced. Many studies have shown that mowing perennials and spraying the re -growth is not as effective as spraying without mowing. Effect of mowing is species dependent; therefore, it is imperative to know the species and its basic biology. Timing of application must be done when biologically appropriate, which is not necessarily convenient. 4. Tillage may or may not be effective. Most perennial roots can sprout from pieces only 1/2 in. — 1 in. long. Clean machinery thoroughly before leaving the weed patch. 5. Hand pulling is generally not recommended for perennial species unless you know the plants are seedlings and not established plants. Hand pulling can be effective on small patches but is very labor intensive because it must be done repeatedly. (Sirota 2004) Some weeds, particularly annuals and biennials, can develop resistance to herbicides. The ability to quickly develop immunity to herbicides, especially when they are used incorrectly, makes it imperative to use the proper chemicals at the correct time in the specified concentration according to the product label. Most misuse is centered on excessive application, either in frequency or concentration. This results in mostly top kill and resistant phenotypes. 3.7 Best Management Practices — Noxious Weeds Construction: The following practices should be adopted for any construction project to reduce the costs of noxious weed control and aid in prevention efforts. The practices include: • Top soil, where present, should be segregated from deeper soils and replaced as top soil on the final grade, a process known as live topsoil handling; • Wetland vegetation, if encountered, should be live handled like sod, temporarily watered if necessary, and placed over excavated sub -soil relative to the position from which the wetland sod was removed; • Cut-off collars should be placed on all wetland and stream crossings to prevent back washing or draining of important aquatic resources; • In all cases, temporary disturbance should be kept to an absolute minimum; • Equipment and materials handling should be done on established sites to reduce area and extent of soil compaction; • Disturbances should be immediately reseeded with the recommended mix in the re -vegetation section; • Topsoil stockpiles should be seeded with non-invasive sterile hybrid grasses, if stored longer than one growing season; • Prior to delivery to the site, equipment should be cleaned of soils remaining from previous construction sites which may be contaminated with noxious weeds; and • If working in sites with weed -seed contaminated soil, equipment should be cleaned of potentially seed -bearing soils and vegetative debris prior to moving to uncontaminated terrain. In areas with slope greater than three percent, imprinting of the seed bed is recommended. Imprinting can be in the form of dozer tracks or furrows perpendicular to the direction of slope. When utilizing hydro- WestWater Engineering Page 5 of 8 August 2012 seeding followed by mulching, imprinting should be done prior to seeding unless the mulch is to be crimped into the soil surface. If broadcast seeding and harrowing, imprinting should be done as part of the harrowing. Furrowing can be done by several methods, the most simple of which is to drill seed perpendicular to the direction of slope in a prepared bed. Other simple imprinting methods include deep hand raking and harrowing, always perpendicular to the direction of slope. Herbicides: Many of the listed noxious weed species in Colorado are susceptible to commercially available herbicides. Annual and biennial weeds are best controlled at the pre -bud stage after germination or in the spring of the second year. Selective herbicides are recommended to minimize damage to desirable grass species. Professionals or landowners using herbicides must use the concentration specified on the label of the container in hand. Herbicides generally do not work better at higher concentrations. Most herbicide failures observed by WWE are related to incomplete control caused by high concentrations killing top growth before the active ingredient can be transported to the roots through the nutrient translocation process. Most herbicide applications should use a surfactant, if directed on the herbicide label, or other adjuvant as called for on the herbicide label. Grazing: In the event grazing is allowed in the project area, it should be deferred in reclaimed areas until the desired plant species that have been seeded are established. Alternative Methods: An alternative method, particularly where there is poor or destroyed topsoil, is the application of vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, typically referred to as AMF. These fungi, mostly of the genus Glomus, are symbiotic with about 80 percent of all vegetation. Endo-mycorrhizal fungi are associated mostly with grasses and forbs and could be helpful when reclaiming this project. In symbiosis, the fungi increase water and nutrient transfer capacity of the host root system by as much as several orders of magnitude (Barrow and McCaslin 1995). Over-the-counter commercial products, which are better adapted to coating seeds when re -seeding and treating roots of live seedling trees and shrubs at time of planting, come in powder form and are available from many different sources. Some also come in granular form to be spread with seed from a broadcast spreader. The best AMF products should contain more than one fungi species. All Colorado State Forest Salida District tree and shrub plantings include the application of AMF (Tischler 2006). Most, if not all, Colorado Depaitiuent of Transportation re-vegetation/reseeding projects now require use of AMF and BioSol, a certified by-product of the penicillin manufacturing process composed primarily of mycelium. Compacted soils respond well to fossilized humic substances and by- products called humates. These humates, including humic and fulvic acids and humin were formed from pre -historic plant and animal deposits and work especially well on compacted soils when applied as directed. 3.8 Commercial Applicator Recommendations A certified commercial applicator is a good choice for herbicide control efforts. Restricted herbicides require a Colorado licensed applicator. An applicator has the full range of knowledge, skills, equipment, and experience desired when dealing with tough noxious weeds. Reclamation farming services using multiple seed bin range drills and specialized related equipment is available and should be used for reclamation seeding projects. Monitoring: Areas where noxious weed infestations are identified and treated should be inspected over time to ensure that control methods are working to reduce and suppress the identified infestation. The sites should be monitored until the infestations are eliminated or reduced to acceptable levels. These inspections can then be used to prioritize future weed control efforts. WestWater Engineering Page 6 of 8 August 2012 4.0 REVEGETATION – RECLAMATION Site-specific reclamation plans should be developed with a qualified reclamation contractor. Successful reclamation of the project area is dependent upon soil type and texture, slope gradient and aspect, proper weed control, available water, and revegetation with suitable plant species. Appendix B provides the recommended seed mix for Pinyon -Juniper Woodland and/or Mountain/Wyoming Big Sagebrush Shrubland for the proposed area (BLM 2007). 5.0 REFERENCES Barrow, J. R., and Bobby D.

August 2012 FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY: DISCLOSURE OF SITE LOCATIONS IS PROHIBITED (43 CFR 7.18) REPORT ON THE CLASS I CULTURAL (HISTORICAL AND ARCHAEOLOGICAL) AND PALEONTOLOGICAL RESOURCES LIMITED IMPACT REVIEW FOR THE PROPOSED JENKINS COMMUNICATION TOWER ON PRIVATE LANDS IN GARFIELD COUNTY, COLORADO, FOR BILL BARRETT CORPORATION Declaration of Negative Findings GRI Project No.2012-87 8 August 2012 Prepared by Carl E. Conner, Principal Investigator Grand River Institute P.O. Box 3543 Grand Junction, Colorado 81502 BLM Antiquities Permit No. C-52775 Submitted to Board of County Commissioners Garfield County, Colorado Abstract At the request of Bill Barrett Corporation, Grand River Institute (GRI) conducted a Class I cultural resource inventory for the proposed Jenkins Communication Tower. The project area is located on private land in Garfield County, Colorado. This work was undertaken to ensure the project's compliance with county regulations governing the identification and protection of cultural resources on privately owned lands that will be affected by a government action. This work was performed under State of Colorado Antiquities Permit No. 2012-85. The purpose of the cultural resources investigation was to identify previously recorded resources within or near the project area that may be adversely affected by the proposed action. The Class I files search and report preparation were performed between the 5th and 8th of August 2012. As a result of the files search, seventeen cultural resource projects have been identified as conducted in the general vicinity, but no sites or paleontological localities have been previously recorded within the proposed project area. Thirty-three historic and prehistoric sites (5 historic sites, 6 prehistoric sites, and 22 isolated finds) were identified within about a mile of the project area. These are located well outside of the proposed area of disturbance. Accordingly, no further work is recommended for the proposed project. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction 1 Location of the Project Area. 1 Environment. 1 Paleoclimate 3 Files Search Results 3 Discussion/Archaeological Assessment of Cultural Resources. 8 Summary and Recommendations. 8 References. 9 LIST OF FIGURES AND TABLES Figure 1.

The project area is located on private land in Garfield County, Colorado. The Class I files search and report preparation were performed under State of Colorado Antiquities Permit No. 2012-85 between the 5th and 8th of August 2012 by Carl Conner and Hannah Mills. This work was undertaken to ensure the project's compliance with county regulations governing the identification and protection of cultural resources on privately owned lands that will be affected by a government action. The purpose of this cultural and paleontological resources investigation was to identify previously recorded resources within or near the project area that may be adversely affected by the proposed action. Such resources tend to be localized and highly sensitive to disturbance. All work was performed according to guidelines set forth by the Office of Archaeology and Historic Preservation (OAHP) of the Colorado Historical Society. Location of the Project Area The study area is located about 4.4 miles southeast of the town of Silt, in Garfield County, CO. The 20 -acre study block occurs in T. 6 S., R. 91 W., Section 30; 6th P.M. (Figure 1). Environment The project area is located at the south margin of a large northwest -southeast trending structural downwarp known as the Piceance Basin. Subsidence of the Basin probably began some 70 million years ago, with the onset of the Laramide Orogeny during Late Cretaceous times, and continued until the Late Eocene (Young and Young 1977:46). During this period of roughly 25 million years, the Basin received as much as 9000 feet of Tertiary stream and lake deposits, all of which gently dip toward the center of the downwarp. Subsequent uplift and erosion along the Basin's margins have carved from the Basin sediments such topographic "highs" as the Roan Plateau, Grand Mesa, and Battlement Mesa (ibid.). The project area lies south of the Colorado River on a low mesa west of Divide Creek. The region has a cool desert climate. Precipitation ranges between 10 and 14 inches, although the surrounding mountain areas may receive up to 20 inches. Temperatures range from about 95 degrees F in the summer to -5 degrees F during January. A frost -free period of about 150 days is the maximum (USDA SCS 1978b:403). Paleo-environmental data for the area are scant, but it is agreed that gross climatic conditions have remained fairly constant over the last 12,000 years. Still, changes in effective moisture and cooling/ warming trends probably affected the prehistoric occupation of the area. 1 Coraposit Quadrangle: Silt (1962,1987) Gibson Mulch (1963/1987) and New Castle (1962/1987) Garfield amty, Colorado . re ap GIS DRO from TSS 7.5 minute aeries (topographic Scale; 1;24,0 00 Contzur Interval: 40 feet T. 6 S., 1L 91 W, 6th P.M.

The arca reviewed for cultural resources is indicated. [GRI 2012-27, 8/812012] 2 Elevations of the project area average 6000 feet, which fall within the Upper Sonoran zone. Natural vegetation within the proposed project area consists primarily of pinyon/juniper forest. Ground visibility in the project area averages 60%. Present land uses in the vicinity are open range, agricultural fields and energy development. Wildlife inhabitants including mule deer, elk, coyote, and black bear are common in the surrounding area, as are cottontail rabbits and various rodents. Mountain lion, bobcat, fox, skunk, badger, and weasel are also likely inhabitants. Bird species observed in the area include the jay, raven, red -shafted flicker, long-eared owl, golden and bald eagles and various other raptors. Paleoclimate Relatively small changes in past climatic conditions altered the exploitative potential of an area and put stress upon aboriginal cultures by requiring adjustments in their subsistence patterns. Therefore, reconstruction of paleoenvironmental conditions is essential to the understanding of population movement and cultural change in prehistoric times (Euler et al. 1979). To interpret whatever changes are seen in the archaeological record, an account of fluctuations in past climatic conditions must be available or inferences must be made from studies done in surrounding area. Generally, only gross climatic trends have been established for western North America prior to 2000 BP (Antevs 1955; Berry and Berry 1986; Mehringer 1967; Madsen 1982; Wendlund and Bryson 1974; Peterson 1981). Scientific data derived from investigations of prehistoric cultures and geoclimatic and bioclimatic conditions on the southern Colorado Plateau over the past two millennia have achieved a much greater degree of resolution (Dean et al. 1985). Files Search Results Cultural resource investigations in the region have yielded surface diagnostic artifacts and excavated cultural materials consistent with the regional cultural history. Evidence provided by chronometric diagnostic artifacts and radiocarbon analyses indicate regional occupation during the Paleoindian Era, Archaic Era, Formative Era, and Protohistoric Era. Historic records suggest occupation or use of the region by EuroAmerican trappers, settlers, miners, and ranchers as well. Overviews of the prehistory and history of the region are provided in the Colorado Council of Professional Archaeologists' publications entitled "Colorado Prehistory: A Context for the Northern Colorado River Basin" (Reed and Metcalf 1999), and "Colorado History: A Context for Historical Archaeology" (Church et al. 2007). Files searches for known cultural resources within the project area were made through the Colorado Historical Society's Office of Archaeology and Historic Preservation. As a result of the files search, seventeen cultural resource projects have been identified as 3 conducted in the general vicinity (Table 1), Thirty-three historic and prehistoric sites (5 historic sites, 6 prehistoric sites, and 22 isolated finds) were identified within about a mile of the project area, but no sites or paleontological localities have been previously recorded within the proposed project area (Table 2).

In that study, eight variables were found to be the most useful in the prediction of open air sites. These include site slope, aspect, horizontal distance to water (permanent and nearest), vertical distance to water (permanent and nearest), view angle (horizontal), distance to vantage overlook, nearby relief (100 m. and 150 m. radius), and shelter from wind (O'Neil 1993:207-208). Most importantly, the findings reflect the relatively high occurrence of sites along the main drainages on the northeast apron of Grand Mesa. There is a concentration of sites generally within about 0.25 mile of those drainages and most occur within the present day pinyon juniper, big sagebrush, desert shrub or saltbush communities. However, the key factor appears to be proximity to the water source. Most likely sites in the general vicinity were utilized during periods of migration between the mountainous regions of the Grand and Battlement Mesas and the White River Plateau, or migration between the higher elevations of the Mesas and the lower elevations along the Colorado River. Summary and Recommendations As a result of the files search, seventeen cultural resource projects have been identified as conducted in the general vicinity, but no sites or paleontological localities have been previously recorded within the proposed project area. Thirty-three historic and prehistoric sites (5 historic sites, 6 prehistoric sites, and 22 isolated finds) were identified within about a mile of the project area. These are located well outside of the proposed area of disturbance. Accordingly, no further work is recommended for the proposed project. 8 References Antevs, E. 1955 Geologic -climate dating in the west. American Antiquity 20:317-355.

For best results and success, the recommended grass mixture reseeding (see table below) will be done in late autumn immediately following completion of construction. Preferred seeding method will consist of hand raking and broadcast seeding followed by hand raking at a 90 degree angle to the first raking. Because of the relative flatness of the slopes, mulching is not anticipated. If necessary, a second seeding will take place in the fall of each year following construction.

The following statement will give an estimated level of noise and traffic that will be produced during and after the construction process. The duration of the traffic is also determined by weather conditions. If weather is inclement, additional trips to location may be necessary beyond levels stated below. Twin Eagle Consulting LLC will schedule at the best of their ability work during optimal weather conditions. Construction Phase (50 to 60 Foot Self -Support Communications Tower) During the construction phase there will be four types of vehicles used to complete the installation of the communications tower. Half to one ton trucks with a potential of an equipment trailer, backhoe, cement truck and crane. The period of installation will consist of two phases, foundation construction and tower erection. The foundation construction will take at the most 3 days with truck, backhoe and cement truck traffic to and from the location with an estimated trip count of 3 trips per day (the cement truck will only require one trip to location). Once the foundation is set, the foundation will need to cure for approximately one week. This cure period will require no access so no traffic is estimated. To address the noise levels during the foundation construction, the crew will utilize a small generator to provide AC provide power for air ratchet and other hand tools. Beyond this, the only other noise level of significance will be the cement truck and backhoe operation noise. Weather permitting; the erection of the tower will take no more than two days. The type of traffic will consist of up to three pickups with a potential equipment trailer and a crane (estimated a 100 Ft crane will be used). During the installation of the structure, there may be multiple trips to and from the location during this period, with the crane only making one trip. The noise level will consist of crane operation noise, portable generator for operation of air tools and movement of large amounts of steel members for the tower structure. Post Construction Phase (50 to 60 Foot Self -Support Communications Tower) After the construction process is over, radio system installation and alignment on the tower structure will be necessary. Traffic for this period will typically consist of a two day period with pickup traffic only (one or two vehicles). It is estimated that each vehicle will require at least two trips to and from the location per day. Noise will be minimal from hand tool use and engine noise of the vehicles. During normal operation of the tower, no noise levels will be produced as the site is powered by solar with radio equipment housed within an enclosure. Throughout the year, traffic will be minimal considering site visits to perform maintenance (twice per year estimated) and site operation visits of one or two trips to the location per month. Traffic will consist of half to one ton truck vehicles. Bill Barrett Corporation EMERGENCY RESPONSE - MANAGEMENT PLAN 1099 18th Street, Suite 2300 Denver, CO 80202 December 2009 Table of Contents I. Introduction Support II. Injury / Illness Alert Procedure III. Spill Procedure IV. Other Incidents V. Emergency Levels VI. Communication / Evidence VII. HAZWOPER VIII. H2S Contingency Plan (if applicable) IX. General Telephone Numbers, Including Area Specific Telephone Numbers -Including Hospital and Emergency Responders I. Introduction Serious incident situations, unless properly controlled, can result in loss of life and damage to public or private property. Situations resulting from spills can generate complex technical, legal and public relations problems. It cannot be overemphasized that the best way to handle emergency situations is to prevent their occurrence. This Plan is designed to help Bill Barrett Corporation (BBC) respond quickly and effectively to the problems presented by serious incidents when they do occur. The Plan's primary goal is to help the company prevent, as far as practical, any loss of life or damage to property, wildlife, or the ecology. Within this Response Plan you will find descriptions of the duties that must be accomplished when a serious incident occurs. It provides personnel with procedures for handling such incidents effectively. The Plan is prepared: 1. To serve as the basis for an organized action plan in dealing with emergencies and spills of all magnitudes. 2. To spell out responsibility, priority and importance in countering an emergency situation or major spill. 3. To provide information on the means of handling serious incidents and identify the organizations that are involved. 4. To tabulate the personnel and agencies that must be notified. Prompt action is mandatory. For this reason, the content of this Plan must be understood by the persons who may have need of it. All involved employees should be informed to take quick action to protect life and property and to immediately report the incident. The plan will require modification from time to time, as personnel change, as technologies advance, and as experience indicates improvements. The plan is to be reviewed annually by the EH&S staff to assure that it is up to date. This plan is not intended to replace existing Spill Prevention Control & Countermeasures (SPCC) Plans or other required Plans, but rather its purpose is to be a supplement providing general guidelines for emergency situations.

Communication / Evidence It is important when an emergency is identified that notification to an employee's supervisor is made as soon as possible. It is mandatory that notices be given internally as soon as practical. Notification will follow the reporting hierarchy for BBC. The first person to identify the emergency will report it to his/her supervisor. If a person's supervisor cannot be immediately reached with the known contact (i.e. telephone numbers of home, office, portable phone, or pager) then the next person on the list must be notified. At each notification, instructions may be received to be implemented. Each person receiving notification then is responsible for contacting up the chain of command. Notification to regulatory authorities should be made only after discussion the situation with the Senior onsite BBC Supervisor. Communication Techniques 1. Communication must be through a two-way confirmed means. Use of messages on a voice recorder or answering machine does not constitute notification. A message may be left, but the next person up the chain of command must be contacted. 2. If a line is busy, advise the operator that you have an emergency and get the operator to interrupt the line. 3. Make sure the person you are communicating with understands you. This can be done by asking them to repeat key parts of your discussion. 4. If you are calling someone you do not frequently talk to, make sure you identify yourself and where you can be reached. 5. If working with a radio communication, call out the person you want to talk to followed by your name (E.G. "Kurt, this is Greg, do you read me?") Wait long enough for a response. The person may be away from the radio and may need some time to get back, 6. If calling by telephone, let the phone ring at least six times before hanging up. 7. Do not hesitate to call above your supervisor if your supervisor is unreachable. 8. Have relevant information available before starting notification. This does not mean a complete report of everything, but as a minimum the following: A. Location or facility and call back phone number B. Type of emergency. C. Time and date first noticed. D. Magnitude of emergency (e.g. size of fire or spill, number of people involved, injuries, if other properties or companies are involved). E. What you have done prior to making your notification. F. What your plans are in responding to the emergency. G. What are the weather conditions? H. What, if any, outside notifications have been made. I. What assistance you need. J. When you will call back with a subsequent report. Communication Equipment The primary means of communications will be by telephone and radio. Field operations that are Company operated will utilize two-way radio(s) communications and/or mobile telephones. Communications are designed to allow supervisors to be in contact with the Region office. Drillings rigs are usually equipped with either radio systems that communicate with the drilling contractor or mobile telephones. All drilling locations will have some means of two-way communications either onsite or within a 15 -minute drive (all types of weather). Community/Public Affairs Communication and public affairs are best handled by persons trained in dealing with the media. All media inquiries should be directed to the Regulatory/Public Relations and/or Legal Department unless specific direction is given by these groups to individual personnel. Estimates or speculations as to cause or size of the problem must never be made. Assume any camera or recorder in the area is ON at all times (it just may be). Encourage the media to speak with Public Relations or Legal Department personnel in the Denver office for any detailed information. Preserving the Evidence In the aftermath of a serious incident, it becomes necessary to investigate the incident in order to determine cause and corrective actions. Perhaps the most important aspect of this investigation is determining the facts, and as such, the preservation of the evidence is of great importance. With the assistance of personnel involved at the incident scene, the evidence can be preserved and a more beneficial investigation performed. The following are basic guidelines which should be followed: 1. Secure the Area Rope off or other control access into the incident site. Access by non - company personnel (including contractor personnel even if involved in the incident) is NOT allowed unless specific management approval has been obtained. The only exception being necessary access by emergency medical rescuers and fire fighters. 2. Preserve the Evidence As much as possible, don't disturb objects relating to the incident. If unavoidable, stake or mark its location and record what was there. Never allow evidence to leave the scene without approval. 3. Document the Evidence The Incident Leader is responsible for preserving all documentation until the investigator(s) arrive at the scene. 4. Identify Witnesses If persons who witnessed the incident cannot remain on the scene to be interviewed during the investigation, get their names and pertinent information so that they can be located later. VII. HAZWOPER INDEX • Introduction • HAZWOPER Plan Narrative A. Pre -Emergency Planning B. Personnel Roles and Line of Authority C. Evacuation, Safe Distances, and Places of Refuge D. Employee Safety During a Hazwoper Response E. Response Evaluation & Follow -Up HAZWOPER Introduction HAZWOPER stands for "Hazardous Waste Operations and Emergency Response". HAZWOPER is a regulation designed to establish a management plan for emergencies involving hazardous materials. It is applicable to oil field operations primarily through the regulations addressing emergency responses to hazardous substance releases. HAZWOPER defines an emergency response, or responding to emergencies, as a response effort by employees from outside the immediate release area or by other designated responders (e.g., local fire departments, mutual -aid groups, designated HAZMAT Team, etc.) to an occurrence which results or potentially results in an uncontrolled release of a hazardous substance. For the purposes of this plan, the term "immediate release area" has been defined as encompassing the Superintendent's/Area Foreman's geographical area; therefore, if an emergency situation can be mitigated by Company personnel, it is not a HAZWOPER Emergency. In the event that an uncontrolled release requires the response of specially trained emergency teams to stop or control the release (e.g. Fire Department, Department of Health Services, etc.), it is a HAZWOPER response and the procedures in this section of the "Response Manual" must be followed. The EH&S and Legal Departments must be immediately notified in this instance. HAZWOPER Plan Narrative A. Preplanning Response Actions Preplanning is the key to a successful emergency management plan. Planning is handled through the training of company employees, formulation of emergency response activities, and pre -planned coordination with outside emergency responders. The following items constitute BBC's preplanning actions. All field employees will be trained in Hazard Communication and Emergency Response. This includes hazardous material container labeling, access to, and understanding Material Safety Data sheets, and responding to emergencies involving hazardous materials. Specific emergency scenarios and appropriate responses will be discussed in these training sessions. In the event of a HAZWOPER emergency, response activities will be coordinated with contract companies trained to respond to HAZWOPER. The names of these companies and their emergency numbers can be found in Sections 111 and IV of this Plan. B. Personnel Roles and Lines of Authority If an incident is classified as a HAZWOPER response, the Superintendent/ Area Foreman responsible for the facility requiring the response shall supervise BBC personnel in emergency response activities and perform all reporting requirements pursuant to this Emergency Response Plan. He/she will continue to perform these duties until such time as the responding Emergency Response Team arrives. Upon the arrival of the trained Emergency Response (ER) Team, the ranking official of said team will coordinate with the BBC Incident Leader. After that point, all emergency response activities will be conducted under the direction of the ER and Incident Leader. C. Evacuation, Safe Distances, and Places of Refuge Evacuation - The open air nature of oil and gas operations generally permits numerous safe evacuation routes. In areas where this is not the case, employees are directed to attempt escape along a route that takes them upwind of an incident. Crosswind escape is suggested only until upwind escape is appropriate. Wind direction indicators are installed on all properties where H2S gas has been identified. Safe Distances - Prior to the arrival of the Incident Leader mentioned in Section B, the Superintendent/Area Foreman or designee shall be responsible for establishing the distance from the hazardous scene. After the Incident Leader arrives on the scene, safe distances will be established at his/her discretion. Places of Refuge should be established as appropriate for BBC operations. D. Employee Safety During a HAZWOPER Response All field employees will be trained to insure that they can operate certain equipment on the property during an emergency in order to bring the emergency condition under control. In the course of these operations the employee may be exposed to a hazardous environment, become injured, or have his/her clothing become contaminated with a hazardous material. The following items will address these issues. Personal Protection Equipment Specific (PPE) is available to every employee. The type of equipment available to the employee will vary depending on the hazards inherent in the subject work area. Selection, safe use, limitations, maintenance, care and storage will be covered in employee training. The Company's policies and procedures pertaining to PPE are found in the EH&S Manual located in each area office. Employees should only respond to an incident if the hazards are obvious and that employee is trained to respond to the specific hazards involved and the proper PPE is available. Emergency Medical Services will be provided by local hospitals, urgent care centers, and fire departments. Services have been identified in Section IX of this Plan and are listed by BBC operating area name. Decontamination of clothing equipment will be coordinated with BBC EH&S staff. The MSDS will be consulted for proper disposal of contaminated items. E. Response Evaluation & Follow -Up After a HAZWOPER response has occurred, the Emergency Response Review committee will submit a report to management discussing the emergency response as requested. A copy of this report will be kept in the files. The Emergency Response Review Committee: • Operations/Area Manager • Environmental, Health & Safety Manager • Superintendent/Area Foreman The report will identify: • Nature and Cause of emergency • Statistics pertaining to emergency (i.e. damage, injuries, etc.) • Effectiveness of Company Emergency Response Personnel • Corrective Measures taken to prevent recurrence of similar emergency at this location (considering applicability to other locations) VIII. H2S CONTINGENCY PLAN SCOPE The purpose of this Section is to provide an organized plan of action to protect the general public and employees in the event of an accidental release of a potentially hazardous volume of hydrogen sulfide (H2S), or other toxic/hazardous gas.

Shared use/co-location is not applicable. No other structures exist within areas as needed for adequate coverage to meet BBC's operational communication needs. Existing structures are always considered first to minimize cost and unnecessary construction. In this case no existing structures are available within this field that meets the BBC area coverage requirements. Additional Standards Applicable to Telecommunications Facilities Narrative Garfield County Limited Impact Review, 2012 Page 1 of 5 Bill Barrett Corporation Jenkins Telecommunication Facility 2.1 New Towers and Facilities. No new transmission tower or facility shall be permitted unless the applicant demonstrates to the satisfaction of the County that no existing tower, structure or utility facility can be used by the applicant. To gain approval to construct a new transmission tower or facility, the applicant must demonstrate that: 1. No existing transmission tower, facility or utility structure is located within a distance which meets the applicant's engineering requirements; or 2. No existing transmission tower, facility or utility structure is located within a distance which meets the applicant's engineering requirements and which has sufficient structural strength or space available to support the applicant's telecommunication facility and related equipment; or 3. The applicant's proposed telecommunication facility will not cause unreasonable electromagnetic or other interference with the antennas on existing towers, structures or utility structures or the antennas of existing transmission towers, facilities or utility structures or that such existing facilities would interfere with the applicant's uses such that co -location is not possible; or 4. No owner of existing towers, structures or utility structures, within a distance that meets the applicant's engineering requirements, will allow the applicant to place its telecommunication facility thereon. Twin Eagle Consulting (TEC) preformed Field Survey and Radio Frequency Propagation Analysis first to establish the areas of needed coverage to meet BBC SCADA Communication's coverage. Additional studies BBC had performed from other agencies and all area structures and locations were also reviewed. The proposed structure points are the minimum requirement to establish adequate coverage considering the most optimal radio spectrum (Unlicensed 900 MHz FHSS ISM) and the power restrictions as dictated by the FCC Part 15. No other structures exist within areas as needed for adequate coverage to meet BBC's operational communication needs. Existing structures are always considered first to minimize cost and unnecessary construction. In this case, as stated earlier, no existing structures are available within this field that meets the BBC area coverage requirements. 2.2 Structural and Engineering Standards. The applicant shall submit evidence concerning structural and engineering standards prepared by a qualified professional engineer licensed by the State of Colorado. The safety of the property and the neighborhood shall be protected. All towers deployed by TEC are designed and installed according to the EIA/TIA-222F/G Standard, which considers structural strength, wind and ice loading and area implications such as weather and soil conditions. The standards are reflected in the Engineering diagrams, located in the Maps and Plans tab. The process is to first design to the customer's application and determine the antenna types and heights required. Once information is gathered, an elevation document is sent to the installation company and structure manufacturer. The tower was designed according to the EIA/TIA 222-G standard and reviewed by a Professional Engineer as indicated by the submitted "stamped" diagrams. TEC recommends that proper annual maintenance be performed on structures installed, according to manufacturer recommendations, to ensure the ongoing integrity of the structure. 2.3 Interference. Every transmission tower and telecommunication facility shall meet the regulations of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) regarding physical and electromagnetic interference. Additional Standards Applicable to Telecommunications Facilities Narrative Garfield County Limited Impact Review, 2012 Page 2 of 5 Bill Barrett Corporation Jenkins Telecommunication Facility All communication systems designed and deployed by TEC adhere to FCC regulations and restrictions. All equipment deployed is approved by the FCC. Regarding the ISM 900 MHz system, effective isotropic radiated power (EIRP) will not exceed 36 dBm nor will the transmitting equipment exceed 30 dBm from the antenna port. 2.4 Health Standards Transmission towers and telecommunication facilities shall meet applicable health and safety standards for electromagnetic field (EMF) emissions as established by the FCC and/or any other federal or state agency having jurisdiction. All systems deployed by TEC will meet standards in EMF restriction to ensure health and safety, per the transmitting power restrictions of the FCC Part 15, located in the Telecommunication Standards tab. All systems deployed within the BBC project are unlicensed and transmit less than 4 Watts from the antenna, which falls well below even power density recommendations as set forth by the FCC. 2.5 Public Utility Structures Transmission towers or telecommunication facilities mounted on existing structures of public utilities that have a franchise or other written permission from the County and use concealed transmission towers and telecommunication facilities are permitted in all non-residential zoning districts, unless otherwise specified by this Code. The County may approve the placement, extension or replacement of a transmission tower or telecommunication facility on an existing public utility structure up to fifty (50) feet above the highest point on the same; the County may waive public notice and other submittal requirement if the Director believes that the public interest will not be harmed by such a waiver. The proposed Communication Facilities will be installed on private property, not public pre- existing structures. 2.6 Design, Materials and Color Transmission towers and telecommunication facilities shall be designed and maintained to minimize visual impact; carry gravity and wind loads required by law; and concealment or stealth methods, such as camouflaging transmission Towers to look like light poles or trees are encouraged. At a minimum, the transmission towers and facilities shall meet the following design standards: 1. Architecturally integrated with existing buildings, structures and landscaping, including height, color, style, massing, placement, design and shape. 2. Located on existing vertical infrastructure such as utility poles and public building or utility structures. 3. Roof mounted antennas shall be located as far away as feasible from the edge of the building. Antennas attached to the building should be painted or otherwise treated to match the exterior of the building. 4. Equipment shelters and antennas shall not extend more than ten (10) feet from the top of the building unless expressly approved by the County. 5. Located in areas where the existing topography, vegetation, buildings or other structures provide screening. The proposed tower will have a lattice structure and height less than 100 ft which will minimize visual impact. The color of the tower will blend in with the natural background environment. The tower will be located in a remote area on a 19.94 area parcel with native pinyon and juniper vegetation surrounding the site. Additional Standards Applicable to Telecommunications Facilities Narrative Garfield County Limited Impact Review, 2012 Page 3 of 5 Bill Barrett Corporation Jenkins Telecommunication Facility 2.7 Landscaping and Screening The property on which a telecommunication facility or tower is located shall be landscaped and screened, in accordance with the following standards: 1. A free-standing transmission tower or telecommunication facility shall include landscaping planted and maintained according to a landscaping plan approved by the County. BBC requests a waiver in accordance with Waiver of Standards, Section 4-117 of the Garfield County Unified Land Use Resolution of 2008, for landscaping requirements stated in Section 7-1203 (H) 1. The location of the site is not in a high visibility area and native vegetation of pinyon and juniper surrounds the site. The site will be located on a 19.94 acre parcel. The site location is remote and rural and the site will not be visible to the public. The land surrounding the site is currently used for agriculture activities. Site photos are located in the Supporting Documents Tab. 2. A freestanding transmission tower or telecommunication facility shall be surrounded by a six (6) foot high wall or fence or other suitable buffer yard. Chain link with slats shall not constitute acceptable fencing nor shall it satisfy the screening requirement. BBC requests a waiver in accordance with Waiver of Standards, Section 4-117 of the Garfield County Unified Land Use Resolution of 2008, for screening requirements stated in Section 7-1203 (H) 2. The location of the site is not in a high visibility area and native vegetation of pinyon and juniper surround the site. The site will be located on a 19.94 acre parcel. The site location is remote and rural and the site will not be visible to the public. The land surrounding the site is currently used for agriculture activities. An 8 -ft chain-link fenced will be installed for security purposes. Site photos are located in the Supporting Documents Tab. 2.8 Lighting and Signage. Only lighting required by a federal agency is allowed. Only signage that is required by state or federal law is allowed. No advertising shall be permitted. Based on the 7460-1? form aeronautical report released by the FAA, the tower will not require marking and lighting to maintain aviation safety. No lighting will be installed on the Jenkins tower. No advertising or signs other than that required by state or federal law shall be installed. 2.9 Facility Equipment Building(s) or Cabinet(s). Exterior tower or telecommunication facility equipment building(s) or cabinet(s) shall not contain more than four hundred (400) square feet of gross floor area, shall not be more than twelve (12) feet in height, and shall maintain the minimum setback, landscaping and screening requirements of the zone in which it is located. The communication tower cabinet and solar array will be approximately 61 square feet of ground space. The proposed site will meet the minimum setback required for the rural zone district as stated in Table 3-201 of the Garfield County Unified Land Use Resolution of 2008.

BBC will comply with the modification or demolition standards for the proposed Communication Facility. 2.11 Maintenance Every owner of a transmission tower or telecommunications facility shall take special care to operate, repair and maintain all such facilities so as to prevent failures and accidents which cause damage, injuries or nuisances to the neighborhood and public. All wires, cables, fixtures and other equipment shall be installed in compliance with the requirements of the National Electric Safety Code and all FCC, FM, state and local regulations, and in such a manner that will not interfere with radio communications, electronic transmissions or all other electromagnetic communications or otherwise cause a safety hazard. The proposed CF will be maintained by BBC and qualified contractors. The communication tower will meet or exceed compliance standards and will not interfere with other communications. 2.12 Abandonment The wireless telecommunication facility owner shall remove all wireless telecommunications facilities which are not in use for any six (6) -month period, within three (3) months of the end of such six (6) month abandonment. As a part of such removal, the owner shall re -vegetate the site so that it is compatible with the neighborhood. The Board of County Commissioners shall only determine abandonment after the owner has had notice and an opportunity to be heard. In the event of abandonment, BBC will comply with removal requirements. 2.13 Federal Aviation Agency ("FAA") Form The applicant shall submit FAA Form 7460-1, Notice of Proposed Construction or Alteration. A form 7460-1 was submitted to the FFA for the Jenkins proposed communication tower. The FAA aeronautical report determined the tower will cause no hazard to air navigation. The report also stated marking and lighting were not required for aviation safety. The FAA aeronautical report is provided in the Telecommunications Standards Tab. 2.14 Telecommunications Acts All telecommunications facilities shall comply with the standards of this Code, all applicable standards of the Federal Telecommunications Act of 1996, and all applicable requirements of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).

This determination expires on 01/20/2014 unless: (a) the construction is started (not necessarily completed) and FAA Form 7460-2, Notice of Actual Construction or Alteration, is received by this office. (b) extended, revised, or terminated by the issuing office. (c) the construction is subject to the licensing authority of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and an application for a construction permit has been filed, as required by the FCC, within 6 months of the date of this determination. In such case, the determination expires on the date prescribed by the FCC for completion of construction, or the date the FCC denies the application. Page 1 of 3 NOTE: REQUEST FOR EXTENSION OF THE EFFECTIVE PERIOD OF THIS DETERMINATION MUST BE E -FILED AT LEAST 15 DAYS PRIOR TO THE EXPIRATION DATE. AFTER RE-EVALUATION OF CURRENT OPERATIONS IN THE AREA OF THE STRUCTURE TO DETERMINE THAT NO SIGNIFICANT AERONAUTICAL CHANGES HAVE OCCURRED, YOUR DETERMINATION MAY BE ELIGIBLE FOR ONE EXTENSION OF THE EFFECTIVE PERIOD. This determination is based, in part, on the foregoing description which includes specific coordinates , heights, frequency(ies) and power . Any changes in coordinates , heights, and frequencies or use of greater power will void this determination. Any future construction or alteration , including increase to heights, power, or the addition of other transmitters, requires separate notice to the FAA. This determination does include temporary construction equipment such as cranes, derricks, etc., which may be used during actual construction of the structure. However, this equipment shall not exceed the overall heights as indicated above. Equipment which has a height greater than the studied structure requires separate notice to the FAA. This determination concerns the effect of this structure on the safe and efficient use of navigable airspace by aircraft and does not relieve the sponsor of compliance responsibilities relating to any law, ordinance, or regulation of any Federal, State, or local government body. Any failure or malfunction that lasts more than thirty (30) minutes and affects a top light or flashing obstruction light, regardless of its position, should be reported immediately to (877) 487-6867 so a Notice to Airmen (NOTAM) can be issued. As soon as the normal operation is restored, notify the same number. A copy of this determination will be forwarded to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) because the structure is subject to their licensing authority.

Because suitable nesting habitat exists, the site should be re -inventoried by qualified biologists if project construction is not completed prior to the next nesting season. The main area of concern would be the pinyon juniper woodlands surrounding the project. If any raptors are found behaving in a manner consistent with nesting, every effort should be made to apply timing and buffer distance limitations (Table 1) to reduce potential affects. These recommendations are based on Colorado Division of Wildlife (CDOW) recommendations (Craig 2002 and Klute 2008) and literature review of nesting season timing for raptors in the region (Andrews and Righter 1992, Kingery 1998, Poole 2012, Righter et. al. 2004).

Mitigation of potential impacts to birds due to collisions with the tower Collisions with a tower structure are a potential source of bird mortality. Collision rates increase during spring and fall migrations and particularly when there is low cloud cover, fog or inclement weather. All towers and similar structures have the potential to kill birds, although the structures that cause the most problems are tall (especially those exceeding 305m [1,000 ft]). Other factors that seem to increase bird mortality through collisions include illumination at night with solid or pulsating incandescent red lights, guy wire supports, close proximity to wetlands, if the tower is located within major songbird WestWater Engineering Page 1 of 3 July 2012 migration pathways or corridors, or if the area has a history of inclement weather during spring and fall migrations (Manville 2001). Light appears to be a key attractant for night -migrating songbirds, especially on nights with poor visibility, low cloud ceilings, heavy fog, or various forms of precipitation associated with either passing or stationary cold fronts (Tordoff and Mengel 1956, Ball et al. 1995). The low -height and high visibility of the proposed tower reduces the chances for bird mortality. The tower would not require nighttime illumination, no major wetlands exist nearby, and the area is not known to be a major migration route for migratory birds. It is not expected that bird mortality will be a significant issue with the proposed project. American Elk and Mule Deer Construction of the project would remove a small amount of pinyon juniper woodland vegetation that provides thermal and escape cover for wintering deer and elk. If construction can take place during daylight hours and outside of the winter months, indirect affects would be minimized Fencing should be constructed consistent with published standards that reduce impacts to big game (Hanophy 2009). Implementation of integrated vegetation and noxious weed management and reclamation plans for disturbed areas along the proposed access road would improve the existing condition of the area surrounding the proposed development. Black Bear Construction personnel at the tower site may be unfamiliar with wildlife in the area and should be informed of the potential for bear interactions. Personnel should not feed bears at any time. Bears should not be approached if encountered in the project area. All garbage and any food items should be removed from the site on a daily basis. Mitigation of Habitat Loss to Birds Brush and tree clearing should be conducted outside of the nesting season, which is generally considered to occur between May 1 and July 31 for most species in this area. May 15 to July 15 is the peak period when most incubation and brood rearing takes place. Most affected birds will relocate to alternate sites if trees and brush can be cleared prior to the nesting season. After mid-to-late July, most fledging has occurred and brush/tree clearing impacts would be minimized Small Mammals, Amphibians, and Reptiles There are no seasonal restrictions or special requirements for development related to these species. PRESERVATION OF NATIVE VEGETATION Implementation of integrated vegetation and noxious weed management and reclamation plans in areas of disturbance that are not necessary for operation or maintenance of the facilities would provide the basis for appropriate mitigation. The most preferable method to mitigate the loss of native vegetation is to rehabilitate the site with desirable native plant species. REFERENCES Andrews, R., and R. Righter. 1992.

Page 10 of 14 Article 7 Standards- Division 3 1.0 INTRODUCTION The following section addresses the requirements for the Site Planning and Development Standards under Article 7, Division 3 of the Garfield County Unified Land Use Resolution of 2008, as amended. 2.0 SECTION 7-301. COMPATIBLE DESIGN. The design of Development associated with the Land Use Change shall be compatible with and enhance the existing character of adjacent uses. A. Site Organization. The site shall be organized in a way that considers the relationship to streets and lots, solar access, parking, pedestrian access, and access to common areas. The proposed site is located in an unpopulated area on a 19.94 acre parcel and not adjacent to public streets, parking, pedestrian access, and common areas. The site will not impede solar access to adjacent parcels. The site plan is located in the Maps and Plans tab. The vicinity map is located in the Impact Analysis tab. B. Operational Characteristics. The operations of activities on the site shall be managed to avoid nuisances to adjacent uses relating to hours of operations, parking, service delivery, and location of service areas and docks. 1. Objectionable Emissions. Dust, odors, gas, fumes, and glare shall not be emitted at levels that are objectionable to adjacent property.

In this case, the use shall be subject to COGCC Rule 802, Noise Abatement. For the duration of construction, the noise level will consist of crane operation noise, portable generator for operation of air tools and movement of large amounts of steel members for the tower structure. Noise will be minimal from hand tool use and engine noise of the vehicles. During normal operation of the tower, no noise levels will be produced as the site is powered by solar with radio equipment housed within an enclosure. Personnel will not be required to access the site daily, thus eliminating traffic and associated noise from vehicles. 3. Hours of Operation. Hours of operation shall be established to minimize impacts to adjacent land uses. During operations, the site will not be manned on a continuous basis with personnel only being present when maintenance or repairs are required. Personnel will not be required to access the site daily, thus eliminating traffic and associated noise from vehicles. Page 11 of 14 4. Roadway System Impacts. Impacts to the County roadway system associated with hauling, truck traffic, and equipment use shall be mitigated through roadway improvements or impact fees, or both. Personnel will not be required to access the site daily, thus eliminating traffic and associated noise from vehicles. Two trips per a year are estimated to perform maintenance, and site operation visits are estimated to consist of one or two trips to the location per month. Traffic will consist of half to one ton truck vehicles. The construction of the proposed telecommunication facility will decrease the number of vehicles on county roads by allowing Bill Barrett Corporation to monitor operation activities remotely. C. Lighting. Exterior lighting shall be designed in compliance with the requirements of Section 7-306, Lighting Standards. Lighting will not be installed at the JTF. D. Buffering. Buffering shall be installed to mitigate visual, noise, or similar impacts to adjacent property whenever adjacent uses are in a different zoning district. The subject parcel and adjacent parcels are all zoned rural. The site will be located on a 19.94 acre parcel and not within close proximity to other residents or businesses. E. Materials. Exterior facades shall be constructed with materials that do not detract from adjacent buildings or uses. The proposed tower will be constructed of steel and lattice structure design and height less than 100 feet which will minimize visual impact. The color of the tower will blend in with the natural background environment. F. Building Scale. The scale of buildings on the site shall relate to the scale of structures on adjacent properties and the nature of the proposed use. The proposed site will require the installation of a 50 -foot telecommunications tower with a 5 foot antenna. The proposed communication tower height is permissible as listed in Table 3-201, Zone Districts Dimensions, which states in the Rural Zone District "Telecommunication Facilities may exceed height provided they are approved by a Limited Impact Review." 2.1 SECTION 7-302.

An 8 -foot chain-link fence will be installed for security purposes. At the site entrance, the site will be identified with posted signs. B. Solar Orientation. To the extent possible, buildings shall be oriented to take advantage of solar energy. A solar array will provide power to the JFT and will be installed to achieve optimal solar energy. 2.2 SECTION 7-303. DESIGN AND SCALE OF DEVELOPMENT. A. Excessive Site Disturbance. The design and scale of the Development shall minimize unnecessary or excessive site disturbance. The tower foot print will be less than 108 square feet of surface area. B. Minimize Adverse Influences by Airport Operations. Residential Lots should be located to minimize adverse influences due to airports and airport operations. The JTF will be permitted as a telecommunication facility and not a residential lot. C. Efficiency in Provision of Services and Access to Facilities.

The proposed site is located in an unpopulated area on a 19.94 acre parcel and not adjacent to public streets, parking, pedestrian access, and common areas. The site will not impede solar access to adjacent parcels. The site plan is located in the Maps and Plans tab. The vicinity map is located in the Impact Analysis tab. B. Operational Characteristics. The operations of activities on the site shall be managed to avoid nuisances to adjacent uses relating to hours of operations, parking, service delivery, and location of service areas and docks. 1. Objectionable Emissions. Dust, odors, gas, fumes, and glare shall not be emitted at levels that are objectionable to adjacent property. The site will not produce nuisances that are objectionable to adjacent property. Lighting will not be installed at the JTF. Odors, gas, and fumes are not anticipated at the proposed site. 2. Noise. Noise shall not exceed state noise standards pursuant to C.R.S., Article 12 of Title 25, as amended, unless the use is regulated by the COGCC. In this case, the use shall be subject to COGCC Rule 802, Noise Abatement. For the duration of construction, the noise level will consist of crane operation noise, portable generator for operation of air tools and movement of large amounts of steel members for the tower structure. Noise will be minimal from hand tool use and engine noise of the vehicles. During normal operation of the tower, no noise levels will be produced as the site is powered by solar with radio equipment housed within an enclosure. Personnel will not be required to access the site daily, thus eliminating traffic and associated noise from vehicles. 3. Hours of Operation. Hours of operation shall be established to minimize impacts to adjacent land uses During operations, the site will not be manned on a continuous basis with personnel only being present when maintenance or repairs are required. Personnel will not be required to access the site daily, thus eliminating traffic and associated noise from vehicles. Page 11 of 14 4. Roadway System Impacts. Impacts to the County roadway system associated with hauling, truck traffic, and equipment use shall be mitigated through roadway improvements or impact fees, or both. Personnel will not be required to access the site daily, thus eliminating traffic and associated noise from vehicles. Two trips per a year are estimated to perform maintenance, and site operation visits are estimated to consist of one or two trips to the location per month. Traffic will consist of half to one ton truck vehicles. The construction of the proposed telecommunication facility will decrease the number of vehicles on county roads by allowing Bill Barrett Corporation to monitor operation activities remotely. C. Lighting. Exterior lighting shall be designed in compliance with the requirements of Section 7-306, Lighting Standards. Lighting will not be installed at the JTF. D. Buffering. Buffering shall be installed to mitigate visual, noise, or similar impacts to adjacent property whenever adjacent uses are in a different zoning district. The subject parcel and adjacent parcels are all zoned rural. The site will be located on a 19.94 acre parcel and not within close proximity to other residents or businesses. E. Materials. Exterior facades shall be constructed with materials that do not detract from adjacent buildings or uses. The proposed tower will be constructed of steel and lattice structure design and height less than 100 feet which will minimize visual impact. The color of the tower will blend in with the natural background environment. F. Building Scale. The scale of buildings on the site shall relate to the scale of structures on adjacent properties and the nature of the proposed use. The proposed site will require the installation of a 50 -foot telecommunications tower with a 5 foot antenna.
