Plan
Reclamation Plan Oxy has proposed a re-alignment of a roadway, Puckett Re-Route. Revegetation activities are anticipated to take no longer than forty (40) days. Upon completion of the
construction of the roadway, the disturbed area will be re-contoured at slopes no greater than 1.5:1 to catch the existing terrain and topsoil will be replaced on the disturbed areas.
The entire disturbed area outside of the roadway will be reseeded by drilling the following seed mixtures: Mixed Mountain Shrubland, Including Oakbrush PLS Common Name Scientific Names
Form lbs/acre* Thickspike Wheatgrass Elymus lanceolatus ssp. lanceolatus, Sod-Agropyron dasystachyum forming Bluebunch Wheatgrass Pseudoroegneria spicata, Agropyron Bunch spicatum Bottlebrush

if broadcast or hydroseeded. Top Soil Managment 3.4 3.7 2.7 3.3 0.6 0.6 1.7 1.7 1.9 0.1 Topsoil will be stockpiled so that it will not interfere with construction activities or cause
potential environmental problems. Should the construction phase of this project exceed forty (40) days, appropriate measures will be taken to protect all topsoil stockpiles (covering,
seeding, windbreaks, etc.). Following final contouring, all disturbed areas outside of the roadway will be covered evenly with the stockpiled topsoil. The topsoil will be heavily pocked
using the excavator bucket to form an uneven soil surface complex which will aid in revegetation. Soil amendments or import of new 1
topsoil is not anticipated. Review of the vegetation establishment will be required to determine whether soil amendments are required at a later date. (Attachment A). Seeding Procedures
and Schedules As recommended grass mixture reseeding will be done in late autumn in order to take advantage of natural precipitation for the region. The reseeding rate should be doubled
for broadcast application. Oxy's contractor will utilize a no-till-drill without any soil preparation other than simple grading to slope and waterbars, where applicable. It is anticipated
that the disturbed areas will be returned to match the original vegetative state. Seeding will be conducted by means of drilling the prescribed seed mix according to the recommended
rate. The seed will be drilled with a common range drill at a depth of 0.25 -0.5 inch beneath the soil surface. The reseeding will be monitored and reseeded as appropriate until the
reclamation standards are acceptable to Garfield County Vegetation Management. Disturbance area The project has an anticipated total disturbance of approximately 2.3 acre. Engineer's
Opinion of Probable Cost Below is a table that outlines the estimated costs associated with the revegetation of the project. The estimate is an opinion of probable cost and may vary
based upon site conditions encountered or market conditions related to the unit cost. 0\oLSSON ASSOCIAT E S Olsson Associates 826 21 1/2 Road Grand Junction, CO 81505 REVEGETATION COST

Drainage and Erosion Control Plan The primary disturbance anticipated with the construction of this project is re-grading. Topsoil will be stockpiled so that it will not Interfere with
construction activities or cause potential environmental problems. Should the construction phase of this project exceed forty (40) days, appropriate measures will be taken to protect
all topsoil stockpiles (covering, seeding, windbreaks, etc.). The construction of the project is anticipated to re-route the roadway andregrade the side slopes to catch existing ground
no steeper than 1.5:1. The construction plans prepared by D.R. Griffin and Associates, Inc illustrate the anticipated grades. Drainage Nolte Associates prepared the Regional Drainage
Analysis. The proposed roadway realignment associated with this project is located within the TRIB03 drainage basin as described within the Regional Drainage Analysis. This project Is
not anticipated to significantly alter the drainage patterns or flow rates described within the Regional Drainage Analysis. Additional analysis may be warranted due to the nature of
construction activity associated with this project. However, it is expected that existing drainage measures will be maintained. Deviation from the Regional Drainage Analysis is not expected,
however, if site conditions dictate a deviation then a Colorado Registered Professional Engineer shall be consulted. The Regional Drainage Analysis prepared by Nolte Associates demonstrating
drainage patterns for the project area is included as Attachment B. Erosion Control Measures Olsson Associates prepared a Stormwater Management Plan for Cascade Creek Development. It
is anticipated that the project will be in conformance with the Stormwater Management Plan (permit no. COR038414). The Stormwater Management Plan will be revised accordingly. An exhibit
demonstrating approximate locations of anticipated erosion control measures is included as Attachment C. associated with the Reclamation Plan and review of the Drainage and prepared

1. Background NOXIOUS WEED MANAGEMENT PLAN OXY USA WTP LP and OXY USA INC Mesa and Garfield County Operations The Colorado Noxious Weed Act (C.R.S. Title 35, Article 5.5) requires that
"noxious weeds" be managed on private and public lands. The Act further declares that control of noxious weeds should use methods that are least damaging to the environment but also
practicable and economically reasonable. The state requires management of noxious weeds included on one of three lists (see Appendix A): List A-designated for statewide eradication;
List 8 -managed to prevent further spread and, for selected species, designated for eradication in large areas; and List C -of more localized concern, but for which the State will provide
education, research, and biological control assistance to jurisdictions that choose to manage the species. OXY USA WTP LP and OXY USA Inc. (individually and collectively referred to
herein as "Oxy"), are affiliated companies that separately own and operate certain mineral properties in the State of Colorado. This plan is intended for all Oxy operations in order
to comply with all state and federal requirements including the Colorado Noxious Weed Act, Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Act, Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and Forest Service (FS)
National Invasive Weed Strategies, Mesa County and Garfield County weed standards. 2. Compliance Statements Oxy will manage all noxious weeds, as defined by the Mesa County, Garfield
County or State Law (CRS 35-5.5), in all newly disturbed project areas using recommendations identified in this plan or those provided by biological consultant at the time of project
specific inventories. The term, "disturbed area" includes all access roads, easements, pipelines, special purpose pits, berms, soil stockpiles, well pads, electrical and compressor stations
and other structures, and other areas disturbed by project activities. Oxy will immediately report all State List A and List 8 populations to be eradicated and any other species slated
by Mesa and Garfield Counties for eradication upon discovery to the appropriate County designee. 3. Contacts Regulatory Lead: Sean Norris OXY USA WTP LP 760 Horizon Drive, Suite 101

Regulatory Advisor: 4. Locations Daniel Padilla OXY USA WTP LP 760 Horizon Drive, Suite 101 Grand Junction, Colorado 81506 Phone: (970) 263-3637 Oxy has active and inactive leases for
gas exploration in the following areas of Mesa and Garfield Counties: • Cascade Creek (Garfield County, Colorado) • Collbran Area (Mesa County, Colorado) Oxy operates on split estate,
wholly federal (both BLM and USFS), and wholly private land and lease holdings. 5. Land Use Objectives Oxy conducts natural gas exploration on lease holdings in Colorado. Land uses and
types of facilities to be developed include access roads, pipelines, well pads, compressor stations, staging/storage areas for equipment and supplies, and other associated natural gas
development activities. Some of the developments are shortterm temporary disturbances, such as staging areas and pipelines, while the roads and well pads will be in place for an estimated
20-30 years. 6. Weed Management Objectives and Implementation Strategies The following are the overall objectives of Oxy's weed management plan. Specific actions to be taken to meet
these objectives are detailed in Section 6. 1) Inventory and monitor existing noxious weed infestations using GPS or other mapping techniques and consistent field documentation; 2) Prevent
new infestations of noxious weeds; 3) Implement Integrated Weed Management (IWM) to control or manage noxious weed populations; 4) Maintain weed inventory, herbicide application and
mapping records; 5) Restore disturbed areas to their proper ecological function to protect native plant ecosystems and watersheds from degradation by noxious weeds. 6.1 Inventory and
Monitoring Before a new site is developed, Oxy will inventory the site and adjacent areas for noxious weeds, including access roads and other probable weed ingress routes.
Noxious weed locations (List A and List B species) will be collected with a GPS unit. Any noxious weed infestations found will be treated before site disturbance, if timing is appropriate.
If the season is not appropriate for weed treatment, activities may proceed and the weeds will be monitored and treated during the appropriate season. Weeds on adjacent properties may
be treated as appropriate with permission of the landowner. Populations of Colorado or County List A and List B species (see Appendix A) will be reported immediately to the County Weed
Manager. On Federal property or for federal projects, a Noxious Weed Inventory record will be completed each time a List A or B weed infestation is inventoried (with the exception of
redstem filaree and quackgrass), and the populations will be reported. Monitoring will be conducted at least once a year, early in the growing season, by Oxy staff or contractors, and
in coordination with BLM or FS staff on federal lands. For most of Oxy's operation areas, monitoring will occur between May and July. All previously treated noxious weed sites will be
monitored for regrowth and scheduled for re-treatment as necessary. All disturbed areas under Oxy management will also be monitored to ensure there are no new weed infestations. 6.2
Prevention The purpose of prevention measures is to preclude the introduction of new or existing noxious weeds from the project area to un-infested areas or from adjacent land into the
project area. 6.2.1 Construction Prevention Measures Construction equipment entering project areas (backhoes, trackhoes, dozers, blades, rollers, lowboys, equipment trailers, etc.) will
be power washed or otherwise cleaned. "Equipment" is defined as any earth moving and any other machinery, trucks or vehicles, trailers and tools. On Federal property, equipment may be
inspected by USFS or BLM personnel. Pickup trucks, SUVs, vans, water trucks, and pipe trucks should also be clean but do not require inspection prior to entering federal lands. Track
pads, gravel beds or rumble strips will be installed at ingress/egress points to the site to limit weed propagules from entering or leaving the site. Soils from infested areas of the
project site will not be moved off site, but will be stockpiled and treated for weeds as necessary. If infested soils are moved off site, they will be kept on Oxy-managed property, monitored,
and treated as necessary. Stockpiled soils will be monitored and treated to control noxious weeds. All purchased products used in development and reclamation of a site will be inspected
or certified as weed-free whenever possible, including soils, rock and gravel, seeds, mulch and erosion control products. 6.2.2 Revegetation The goal of reclamation and revegetation
of a site after disturbance is timely establishment of a desirable plant community and prevention of noxious weed
infestation. "Timely" is defined as "by the end of the second year of project completion" (BLM 2007). Elements of successful revegetation include the use of topsoil that was set aside
during construction and kept weed-free; reseeding with appropriate species to establish plant cover, and stabilization of the soil surface with the appropriate mulches, tackifiers, and
erosion control products as needed. Plans for revegetation and reclamation of disturbed areas are site-specific, and will include a plant list, method of seeding, how seeding success
will be determined and how the revegetated area will be monitored. Most private landowners request re-seeding with common pasture grasses, including timothy, (Phleum pretense), brome
grasses (Bromus or Bromopsis), orchardgrass (Dactylis glomerate), and oats, tricale, rye, or wheat as an annual covercrop. USFS and BLM seed mixes are compiled on a site-specific basis,
according to elevation and existing vegetation community on the site. Non-native, non-persistent sterile grasses may be used to provide ground cover for soil stabilization and weed suppression
during temporary reclamation on both private and federal land. See Appendix C for a sample Oxy Revegetation and Reclamation Plan. Certified weed seed free straw, hay, mulch, seed or
other materials will be used for soil stabilization and/or revegetation purposes (Colorado Department of Agriculture certified inspector to State standards). Seed tags will be available
for inspection upon request of the Inspector. Topsoil that is stock piled for more than one year will be seeded according to above standards at the earliest practical time to reduce
the possibility of noxious weed establishment. Revegetation efforts will be monitored annually until successful establishment of desirable or intentionally planted seed or plants is
confirmed. Noxious weeds found in revegetation will be documented, and managed per guidelines in this Weed Management Plan. 6.3 Control and Management A comprehensive multi-strategy
approach utilizing IWM will be employed to detect, map, treat and control noxious weeds. Treatments will include herbicide, cultural, mechanical, revegetation, and biological control
alone or in combination as necessary for efficient weed control. On Federal lands, control and management methods (including herbicide use) will be verified and approved with the appropriate
land management agency representatives. Activities on BLM lands in Colorado requires submittal of a "Pesticide Use Proposal Form" (BLM 2007). The accompanying treatment tables describe
the management methods, rates, and timing of control measures for specific targeted weeds (see Table 1 and Table 2). Treatment application records will be retained by Oxy and available
for inspection by contacting personnel listed in Section 3 ..

Appendix 8 Excel Spreadsheet Components and Example Tables for Pesticide Reporting The Excel spreadsheet table will contain the data fields listed below. This information should have
been recorded on Noxious Weed Inventory and Pesticide Application records completed during the field season. The Excel spreadsheet will contain a new entry for each weed inventory and/or
pesticide application. Infestation Number (IN #): Needed when List A or List B species (with the exception of redstem filaree and quackgrass) are inventoried and treated. This is the
unique number or code associated with each weed infestation. Date: Date of the weed inventory and/or treatment Observer/Applicator (Obs/Appl): Person conducting the inventory and/or
applying the herbicide. Weed Name or Bare Ground: Common name of the weed. If it was a bare ground treatment state as such. UTM Easting (UTM E), Northing (UTM N) and Zone (Z) (should
always be in NAD 83) or use Lat and Long if preferred. Be consistent with which one is used. Infested Acres (lnf Acres): List how many acres are covered with the weed. Density (Dens)
i.e. Cover: L= Low (less than 5% total canopy cover) M = Moderate (5% -25% canopy cover) H = High (more than 25% canopy cover) Surface ownership (Own): BLM, FS or private Herbicide Trade
Name (Tr Name) or Treatment Method -if a manual or biological treatment state as such. Chemical Names (Chern Name)-Only needed when using an herbicide with multiple active ingredients
or when using a mixture of chemicals. For example, if using Sahara DG which has two active ingredients, imazapyr and diuron, enter the first two letters of each active ingredient. e.g.
im + di. See Excel spreadsheet example. Application Rate (Pounds Active Ingredient (A.I.)/Acre or Pounds Acid Equivalent (A.E.)/Acre): For those herbicides with multiple active ingredients,
multiple columns for the application rates are provided. Application rates should be entered in the same order chemical names are entered. For example, for Sahara DG, the A. I./acre
of imazapyr would be entered in the first Application Rate (AR #1) column. The A. I./acre of diuron would be entered in the second Application Rate (AR #2) column. If an additional chemical
was used in the mix it would be entered in the third Application Rate (AR #3) column.
Total Pounds Active Ingredient (A. I.) or Acid Equivalent (A.E.) Applied: For those herbicides with multiple chemicals, multiple columns for the pounds of A.I./A.E. are provided. Pounds
of A.I./A.E. should be entered in the same order chemical names are entered. For example, for Sahara DG, the pounds of A. I. of imazapyr would be entered in the first Total Pounds A.I./A.E.
(AI AE #1) column. The pounds of A. I. of diuron would be entered in the second Total Pounds A.I./A.E. (AI AE #2) column. If an additional chemical was used in the mix it would be entered
in the third Total Pounds A.I./A.E. (AI AE #3) column. Acres Treated: This should equal the Total Pounds A.I.IA.E. divided by the Application Rate in Pounds A.I.IA.E. Example of a Table

AppendixC Sample Revegetation and Reclamation Plan The proposed facility will be in operation for an anticipated period of approximately _____ during development and production of OXY's
natural gas production operations. Upon termination of the development and production activities, the facility will be reclaimed, as outlined below: o All equipment and structures will
be removed. o OXY will remove all safety and storm water BMPs, and other surface objects from the premises. o OXY will restore the site to pre-facility conditions by re-contouring and
revegetating the site. Top soil will be redistributed across the site and will be reseeded with an approved seed mix (see attached seed mix recommendation). o OXY will monitor the site
to ensure that 70 percent of the pre-existing vegetation is achieved, per the requirements of the area wide CDPHE Stormwater Permit for Cascade Creek and Collbran Developments. Seedbed
Preparation and Slope Reconstruction: Cut and fill slopes will be backfilled andre-contoured to a slope of 3:1-2.5:1 or less in instances where necessary to match the existing natural
contours. Following final contouring, all backfilled or ripped surfaces will be covered evenly with topsoil. Recontouring should form a complex slope with heavy pocking. In areas with
slope greater than 3 percent, imprinting of the seed bed is recommended. Final seedbed prep will consist of scarifying/imprinting the topsoil prior to seeding. Imprinting can be in the
form of dozer tracks or furrows perpendicular to the direction of slope. When hydro-seeding or 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 will 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. All compacted areas will be ripped to depth of 18" with max furrow spacing of 2'. Where practicable, ripping will be conducted in two passes at perpendicular direction. Topsoil:
Following final contouring, all backfilled or ripped surfaces will be covered evenly with topsoil. The topsoil in the cut slope on the back of the pad will be heavily pocked using the
excavator bucket to form an uneven soil surface complex which will aid in revegetation and help with slope stabilization. The fill slope, and remaining disturbed, and reclaimed areas
will be track walked to aid in revegetation and slope stabilization. In areas that may not have been disturbed during the reclamation process or areas of
suspected compaction that will be reseeded, measures will be taken to loosen and spread the topsoil. These measures may include scarifying the soil by racking or harrowing the soil.
Seed Mix: Seed mix used for reclamation will be taken from the attached seed mixtures. Seeding Procedures: For best results and success, the recommended grass mixture reseeding should
be done in late autumn in order to take advantage of natural precipitation for the region. The reseeding rate should be doubled for broadcast application. Preferred seeding method is
multiple seed bin rangeland drill with no soil preparation other than simple grading to slope and imprinting and waterbars, where applicable. Alternative seeding methods include, but
are not limited to: • No-till-drill (no soil preparation required); • harrow with just enough soil moisture to create a rough surface, broadcast seed and reharrow, preferably at a 90
degree angle to the first harrow; • hydro-seeding (most economical in terms of seed cost); and • hand raking and broadcast followed by re-raking at a 90 degree angle to the first raking.
• These are not the only means of replanting the site. However, these methods have been observed to be effective in similar landscapes. The prepared soils will be seeded (weather permitting)
no more than 24 hours following completion of final seedbed preparation. The seeding will be conducted by means of drilling the prescribed seed at prescribed seeding rate. The seed will
be drilled with a common range drill at a depth of 0.25-0.5" beneath the soil surface. The seed will be drilled horizontally across the pad faces and perpendicular to the track walking
when possible. When slope gradient less than 2.5:1 exists and drilling is not possible from a mechanical and safety standpoint the soils will be broadcast seeded at twice the prescribed
amount. The reseeding will be monitored and reseeded as appropriate until the reclamation standards detailed above are met.
