RE: Rifle Compressor Station Recommissioning Project, Gas Chromatograph Building Permit
Application
Public Service Company of Colorado (PSCo), dba Xcel Energy, is proposing to construct, operate, and
maintain the Rifle Compressor Station Recommissioning Project (Project) in unincorporated Garfield
County, Colorado. This Project will update and return-to-service PSCo's existing natural gas compression
facility in the same footprint. Community Development approved the Project's Amended Special Use
Permit - Minor Modification in July 2022. The Project also has an approved Grading Permit.
Enclosed is the Building Permit application for the Gas Chromatograph Building associated with the
Project. The Building Permit application includes the application form as wellas architectural, structural,
and civil drawings. We will be submitting a separate building permit application for the fence at a later
date.
PSCo understands that Garfield County processes Building Permit applications in the order received.
Given the relatively simple design and construction of this prefabricated building, PSCo respectfully
requests that the enclosed Building Permit application be reviewed as quickly as possible to meet the
construction schedule, which allows for in-servicing of the project prior to year end and enables receipt of
this new source of gas in the area to support the upcoming winter heating season.
We look forward to your review of the application submittal. lf you have any questions regarding the
structural design, please contact the structural engineer, Ernesto Costa, at ecosta@enenqineerinq.com
and 630-473-3619. For other questions, please contact our environmental consultant, Stephanie Phippen
with Tetra Tech, lnc., at (303) 980-3515 or stephanie.phippen@tetratech.com.
Sincerely,
@ XcelEnergy'
