The Sketch Plan Drainage Report followed the criteria set forth by Urban Storm Drainage Criteria Manuals (USDCM), Volumes 1, 2 and 3, and the Weld County Storm Drainage Criteria Addendum to the Urban Storm Drainage Criteria Manuals, Volumes 1, 2 and 3 dated October 2006. Project Location The Gilcrest Gas Plant is located Lot C, Exemption No. 1057-32-2 RE 4508, located in the Northwest Quarter of Section 32, Township 4 North, Range 66 West of the 6th P.M., County of Weld, State of Colorado. Weld County Road (WCR) 40 bounds the property on the north. Lot D, Exemption No. 1057-32-2 RE 4508 forms the southern and western boundaries of the property, and Lot B, Exemption No. 1057 -32 -1 -RE 1071 forms the eastern boundary of the property. The property is surrounded by land designated as Agricultural Zoning. There are no major lakes, streams, or water resource facilities within the property. A small concrete lined irrigation ditch parallels the eastern and a portion of the southern property boundaries. The Farmers Independent Ditch is approximately 300 feet west of the northwest corner of the property. Property Description The site is approximately 8.53 acres in size, and has historically been agricultural land. An operating gas plant is situated on the eastern, rectangular piece of the property. The existing gas plant is approximately 625 feet (north -south) by 330 feet (east -west) in size and covered by buildings, concrete pads, metal tanks, storage areas and gravel drive areas. There is no natural plant growth in the existing gas plant site. Access to the property is from WCR 40. The western part of the property is triangular shaped and extends 600 -feet westerly from the existing gas plant along WCR 40. The western portion of the property is undeveloped and covered with weeds. A 2 -foot deep concrete lined irrigation ditch is situated on the adjacent properties parallel to part of the southern property boundary and the entire eastern boundary. Water in the concrete lined ditch flows easterly along the southern property boundary and northerly along the easterly property boundary. The water in the ditch is directed under WCR 40 after it reaches the northeast corner of the property. The site slopes downward northwesterly at approximately 0.7%. The soil consists of Julesburg Sandy Loam. The soils are divided between Map Unit 29 and Map Unit 30. Both units are comprised of the Julesburg Sandy Loam, with Unit 29 associated with slopes of 0% to 1% and Unit 30 associated with slopes of 1% to 3%. Both Julesburg Sandy Loam Gilcrest Gas Plant 3 July 15, 2013 Flatirons, Inc. — Surveying & Engineering soils are well drained and assigned to Hydrologic Group 'B' by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) National Resources Conservation Service (MRCS). 2.0 DRAINAGE BASINS AND SUB -BASINS Major Basin Description The property is located in the South Platte River Basin approximately 2 miles southeast of river. The South Platte River flows to the northeast. The land between the river and the site is irrigated agricultural land. The water from the site will be intercepted by the Farmers Independent Ditch and will not flow directly to the river. The Farmers Independent Ditch meanders in a northeasterly direction above the South Platte River delivering irrigation water to farms. The Gilcrest Gas Plant property is located in Zone C, Areas of minimal flooding. According to the FEMA Food Insurance Rate Map; Community Panel No. 080266-0750 C, Dated September 28, 1982. Sub -Basin Description Three sub -basins, Xl, X2, and X3, define the existing drainage basins on site: the western triangular portion, the middle road section, and the eastern portion of the subject property. Historically, runoff during major rainfall events occurs in sheet flows from the southeast to the northwest on the western triangular portion of the property and eventually outfalls into the Independent Farmers Ditch. Rainfall on the middle road section flows to the north via ditches on either side of the road. A concrete irrigation ditch surrounds the eastern portion of the property intercepting all off -site runoff and directing it around the site, while on -site drainage flows to the existing retention basin near access road to the gas plant. Most of the nearby properties also sheet flow across agricultural land and outfall into the Farmers Independent Ditch. Since the subject property is surrounded by a concrete irrigation channel, and is located on a ridge, there is no anticipation of off -site flows from reaching the subject property. Refer to drainage exhibit DR -1 in Appendix A for all locations of existing drainage basins. 3.0 DRAINAGE FACILITY DESIGN General Proposed Concept This drainage report is prepared with criteria set forth in the Weld County Storm Drainage Criteria Addendum to the Urban Storm Drainage Criteria Manual (USDCM). The general proposed drainage concept is to replicate historic drainage patterns to the Farmers Independent Ditch while utilizing two detention ponds for detention and water quality purposes. There is no anticipation of increasing runoff from historic patterns due to the use of the detention ponds. Refer to drainage exhibit DR -2 in Appendix A for more information regarding the proposed drainage concept. Gilcrest Gas Plant 4 July 15, 2013 Flatirons, Inc. — Surveying & Engineering Specific Details The drainage concept will be designed using the 10 -year event for the minor storm and the 100 -year event for the major storm. Using NOAA's Precipitation Frequency Data Server the minor storm precipitation depth is 1.39 inches for the 1 -hour event and 2.00 inches for the 6 -hour event. The major storm precipitation depth is 2.73 inches for the 1 -hour event and 3.92 inches for the 6 -hour event. There are no anticipated drainage problems from the proposed development. Access to the drainage facilities will be from on -site roads. There are no anticipated issues accessing the drainage facilities for maintenance purposes. Variance from Criteria r No variances from design criteria are requested for this project. 4.O CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS The Sketch Plan Drainage Report has been prepared in compliance with the criteria set forth by Urban Storm Drainage Criteria Manuals (USDCM), Volumes 1, 2 and 3, and the Weld County Storm Drainage Criteria Addendum to the Urban Storm Drainage Criteria Manuals, Volumes 1, 2 and 3 dated October 2006. It is intended to be submitted as part of, and in support of a Weld County Use by Special Review Permit application for AKA Energy Group, LLC of Platteville, CO for the Gilcrest Gas Plant. It is anticipated that during the review process, some modifications of the site design, and consequently the drainage design may be necessary. This proposed development will not cause any negative impacts on the upstream or downstream properties.

Factor K is one of six factors used in the Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) and the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) to predict the average annual rate of soil loss by sheet and rill erosion in tons per acre per year. The estimates are based primarily on percentage of silt, sand, and organic matter and on soil structure and saturated hydraulic conductivity (Ksat). Values of K range from 0.02 to 0.69. Other factors being equal, the higher the value, the more susceptible the soil is to sheet and rill erosion by water. "Erosion factor Kf (rock free)" indicates the erodibility of the fine -earth fraction, or the material less than 2 millimeters in size.

Southern Part Map Unit Description The map units delineated on the detailed soil maps in a soil survey represent the soils or miscellaneous areas in the survey area. The map unit descriptions in this report, along with the maps, can be used to determine the composition and properties of a unit. A map unit delineation on a soil map represents an area dominated by one or more major kinds of soil or miscellaneous areas. A map unit is identified and named according to the taxonomic classification of the dominant soils. Within a taxonomic class there are precisely defined limits for the properties of the soils. On the landscape, however, the soils are natural phenomena, and they have the characteristic variability of all natural phenomena. Thus, the range of some observed properties may extend beyond the limits defined for a taxonomic class. Areas of soils of a single taxonomic class rarely, if ever, can be mapped without including areas of other taxonomic classes. Consequently, every map unit is made up of the soils or miscellaneous areas for which it is named and some minor components that belong to taxonomic classes other than those of the major soils. Most minor soils have properties similar to those of the dominant soil or soils in the map unit, and thus they do not affect use and management. These are called noncontrasting, or similar, components. They may or may not be mentioned in a particular map unit description. Other minor components, however, have properties and behavioral characteristics divergent enough to affect use or to require different management. These are called contrasting, or dissimilar, components. They generally are in small areas and could not be mapped separately because of the scale used. Some small areas of strongly contrasting soils or miscellaneous areas are identified by a special symbol on the maps. If included in the database for a given area, the contrasting minor components are identified in the map unit descriptions along with some characteristics of each. A few areas of minor components may not have been observed, and consequently they are not mentioned in the descriptions, especially where the pattern was so complex that it was impractical to make enough observations to identify all the soils and miscellaneous areas on the landscape. The presence of minor components in a map unit in no way diminishes the usefulness or accuracy of the data. The objective of mapping is not to delineate pure taxonomic classes but rather to separate the landscape into landforms or landform segments that have similar use and management requirements. The delineation of such segments on the map provides sufficient information for the development of resource plans. If intensive use of small areas is planned, however, onsite investigation is needed to define and locate the soils and miscellaneous areas. An identifying symbol precedes the map unit name in the map unit descriptions. Each description includes general facts about the unit and gives important soil properties and qualities. t \ Natural Resources Web Soil Survey Conservation Service National Cooperative Soil Survey 7/11/2013 Page 1 of 3 Map Unit Description: Julesburg sandy loam, 0 to 1 percent slopes —Weld County, Colorado. Southern Part Soils that have profiles that are almost alike make up a soil series. All the soils of a series have major horizons that are similar in composition, thickness, and arrangement. Soils of a given series can differ in texture of the surface layer, slope, stoniness, salinity, degree of erosion, and other characteristics that affect their use. On the basis of such differences, a soil series is divided into soil phases. Most of the areas shown on the detailed soil maps are phases of soil series. The name of a soil phase commonly indicates a feature that affects use or management. For example, Alpha silt loam, 0 to 2 percent slopes, is a phase of the Alpha series. Some map units are made up of two or more major soils or miscellaneous areas. These map units are complexes, associations, or undifferentiated groups. A complex consists of two or more soils or miscellaneous areas in such an intricate pattern or in such small areas that they cannot be shown separately on the maps. The pattern and proportion of the soils or miscellaneous areas are somewhat similar in all areas. Alpha -Beta complex, 0 to 6 percent slopes, is an example. An association is made up of two or more geographically associated soils or miscellaneous areas that are shown as one unit on the maps. Because of present or anticipated uses of the map units in the survey area, it was not considered practical or necessary to map the soils or miscellaneous areas separately. The pattern and relative proportion of the soils or miscellaneous areas are somewhat similar. Alpha -Beta association, 0 to 2 percent slopes, is an example. An undifferentiated group is made up of two or more soils or miscellaneous areas that could be mapped individually but are mapped as one unit because similar interpretations can be made for use and management. The pattern and proportion of the soils or miscellaneous areas in a mapped area are not uniform. An area can be made up of only one of the major soils or miscellaneous areas, or it can be made up of all of them. Alpha and Beta soils, 0 to 2 percent slopes, is an example. Some surveys include miscellaneous areas Such areas have little or no soil material and support little or no vegetation. Rock outcrop is an example. Additional information about the map units described in this report is available in other soil reports, which give properties of the soils and the limitations, capabilities, and potentials for many uses. Also, the narratives that accompany the soil reports define some of the properties included in the map unit descriptions.
