This letter summarizes or observations and test results. The services were performed in accordance with our agreement for construction observation and testing services to Elk Springs, LLC, dated May 4, 2011. Between May 6 and June 16, 2011 we performed part-time observation and compaction testing of the utility trenches, roadway subgrade, and sub -base and base course placement for the roadway extension. The trench backfill and roadway soils were tested and/or observed to meet the minimum specified 95% standard Proctor density. The roadway subgrade was stiff clay and stable under truck traffic and did not need a geo-grid material to stabilize. Our field and laboratory test results are being provided under separate cover. We will forward these reports when they become available. If you have any questions or need further assistance, please call our office. Sincerely, HEPWORTH-1 A AKe"� '.� ICAL, INC. st- David A.

On the KingBird extension, after it was flagged we stripped and grubbed all topsoil which was 18" to 24" in some places. All soils were stockpiled to the north of Kingbird Lane and new 3" minus was brought in to accommodate the loss of soils. New utilities were extended to the two new Tots, bedded and backfilled with %" road base(except gas, bedding sand was used on ail gas as per Source Gas request), and re -compacted to 95% standard proctor density or better. Some blasting was used in the process to acquire suggested depths for all utilities. All trenches were brought back up in 8 "to 12" lifts, and all was tested by a representative of H -P Geo -tech (all testing information was supplied to Gary McElwee directly from H -P Geo -tech). The three inch minus material was then brought up in lifts of 6" to 8", compacted with large equipment and tested on every lift by H -P Geo-tec h to 95% or better standard proctor density. Upon completion it was then chip and sealed by an independent contractor. An water connections were sanitized, tested and monitored by a representative of Red Canyon Water and Sanitation. The Sewer line extension was completed in accordance with the plans and specifications supplied by Schmueser, Gordon & Meyer. The tie-in with the existing sewer was a hand poured base using 3500 psi concrete supplied by Casey Concrete with pre -pour cast risers to bring it up to grade. Pipe was flow - filled on the outside of risers and then attached to new sewer line.

The subgrade had been reportedly wheel rolled with a dump truck prior to our visit and significant rutting was not visible anywhere on the roadway. During our visit a 10 wheel dump truck rolled across the roadway without significant deflection. The subgrade appeared suitable for placement of the roadway section materials. The contractor was informed of our observations. The contractor stated that he planned to place approximately 10" of Class 2 base course on the subgrade and compact prior to placing aggregate base course and asphalt chip seal pavement. We recommended observing a proof roll of the pit run after compaction and prior to placement of the aggregate base course and compaction testing of the aggregate base course. We also recommended testing the utility trench backfill for compaction. The contractor stated he would contact us to schedule a proof roll observation and compaction testing when ready. distribution: Schmueser Gordon Meyer — Dave Kotz (DnveK(a?sem-inc.com ) Iksw James Parker, PG, EIT David A.

Mc Elwee/ Manager December 12, 2011 Garfield County Planning and Zoning Re -vegetation of Filings 9, 6A To Whom it May Concern: In my capacity as Manager for the Los Amigos Ranch LLC./Elk Springs LLC., I directed my ranch foreman and supervised the re -vegetation of Filing 9 and Filing 6A. This re -vegetation consisted of applying Mountain Brome grass seed to the perimeter of the new cul -d - sac at the top of Kingbird Lane to accommodate two (2) additional lots. In Filing 6A, two (2) trenches at different locations were dug to provide utilities to the lot. Trench one (1) involved the re -vegetation of approximately 1.5 acres of disturbed pasture soil with a seeding of Mountain Brome grass raked into the loose soil. Trench two (2) running parallel to CR 114 and across the entrance to Elk Springs has four (4) erosion waddles installed to control runoff along with a seeding of Low Grow Mountain Mix grass seed. Six (6) existing pinion trees that were removed for the excavation were re -planted along with addition of three (3) more pinions. A layer of bark chips was placed to protect and help with the germination of the seeds. I have enclosed the invoices from Rivendell Sod Farm (seed) and Mr. Russ Craig (trees) showing expenses for this project. If you need any additional information please contact me at 945-6399.

On the KingBird extension, after it was flagged we stripped and grubbed all topsoil which was 18" to 24" in some places. All soils were stockpiled to the north of Kingbird Lane and new 3" minus was brought in to accommodate the foss of soils. New utilities were extended to the two new lots, bedded and backfilled with 3" road base(except gas, bedding sand was used on all gas as per Source Gas request), and re -compacted to 95% standard proctor density or better. Some blasting was used in the process to acquire suggested depths for all utilities. Alf trenches were brought back up in 8 "to 12" lifts, and all was tested by a representative of H -P Geo -tech (all testing information was supplied to Gary McElwee directly from H -P Geo -tech). The three inch minus material was then brought up in lifts of 6" to 8", compacted with large equipment and tested on every lift by H -P Geo-tec h to 95% or better standard proctor density. Upon completion it was then chip and sealed by an independent contractor. All water connections were sanitized, tested and monitored by a representative of Red Canyon Water and Sanitation. The Sewer line extension was completed in accordance with the plans and specifications supplied by Schmueser, Gordon & Meyer. The tie-in with the existing sewer was a hand poured base using 3500 psi concrete supplied by Casey Concrete with pre -pour cast risers to bring it up to grade. Pipe was flow - filled on the outside of risers and then attached to new sewer line. Sewer line was run to grade elevations supplied by Schmueser, Gordon & Meyer. Al I pipe was bedded and backfilled with %" road base and brought up in 1' lifts and compacted to 95% standard proctor density. Entry way road crossing were brought up in 8" to 12" lifts (all %" roadbase) and tested by a representative of H -P Geo -tech (ail results supplied to Gary McElwee directly). Erosion logs and natives were placed on finished grades. The water line extension was done much in the same way as the sewer line. Specifications for size of pipe and fittings were supplied by Schmueser, Gordon & Meyer (Dean Gordon). T's and fittings were all mege-lugged to industry standards and was inspected the entire way by a representative of Red Canyon Water and Sanitation(Scott or Alan Leslie). All pipe was installed level and was bedded and backfilled to industry standards. All pipe and fittings were sanitized and monitored by a representative of Red Canyon Water and San. All roaded areas of disturbance were compacted and brought back up in 12" lifts with %" roadbase and compacted to 95% or better standard proctor density ( all testing done by H -P Geo -tech). Telephone and electric were run at a depth of four feet with telephone placed one foot above the electric. All were marked and bedded with 1" roadbase and compacted to grade(also inspected by a representative of Holy Cross Energy ). Gas was run in its own trench at a depth of 3' and was backfilled with bedding sand (installed and inspected by Source Gas). In conclusion, every effort and every step followed was with quality assurance to perform and provide a safe and quality product. Pictures were also taken in various stages of each project and can be supplied upon request.

This re -vegetation consisted of applying Mountain Brome grass seed to the perimeter of the new cul -d - sac at the top of Kingbird Lane to accommodate two (2) additional lots. In Filing 6A, two (2) trenches at different locations were dug to provide utilities to the lot. Trench one (1) involved the re -vegetation of approximately 1.5 acres of disturbed pasture soil with a seeding of Mountain Brome grass raked into the loose soil. Trench two (2) running parallel to CR 114 and across the entrance to Elk Springs has four (4) erosion waddles installed to control runoff along with a seeding of Low Grow Mountain Mix grass seed. Six (6) existing pinion trees that were removed for the excavation were re -planted along with addition of three (3) more pinions. A layer of bark chips was placed to protect and help with the germination of the seeds. I have enclosed the invoices from Rivendell Sod Farm (seed) and Mr. Russ Craig (trees) showing expenses for this project.
