27. WELD COUNTY'S RIGHT TO FARM: Weld County is one of the most productive agricultural
counties in the United States, typically ranking in the top ten counties in the country in total
Usr11-0009, Francisco Barron, c/o Chet Thompson , Page 8
market value of agricultural products sold. The rural areas of Weld County may be open and
• spacious, but they are intensively used for agriculture. Persons moving into a rural area must
recognize and accept there are drawbacks, including conflicts with long-standing agricultural
practices and a lower level of services than in town. Along with the drawbacks come the
incentives which attract urban dwellers to relocate to rural areas: open views, spaciousness,
wildlife, lack of city noise and congestion, and the rural atmosphere and way of life. Without
neighboring farms, those features which attract urban dwellers to rural Weld County would quickly
be gone forever.
Agricultural users of the land should not be expected to change their long-established agricultural
practices to accommodate the intrusions of urban users into a rural area. Well-run agricultural
activities will generate off-site impacts, including noise from tractors and equipment; slow-moving
farm vehicles on rural roads; dust from animal pens, field work, harvest and gravel roads; odor
from animal confinement, silage and manure; smoke from ditch burning; flies and mosquitoes;
hunting and trapping activities; shooting sports, legal hazing of nuisance wildlife; and the use of
pesticides and fertilizers in the fields, including the use of aerial spraying. It is common practice
for agricultural producers to utilize an accumulation of agricultural machinery and supplies to
assist in their agricultural operations. A concentration of miscellaneous agricultural materials
often produces a visual disparity between rural and urban areas of the County. Section 35-3.5-
102, C.R.S., provides that an agricultural operation shall not be found to be a public or private
nuisance if the agricultural operation alleged to be a nuisance employs methods or practices that
are commonly or reasonably associated with agricultural production.
Water has been, and continues to be, the lifeline for the agricultural community. It is unrealistic to
assume that ditches and reservoirs may simply be moved "out of the way" of residential
development. When moving to the County, property owners and residents must realize they
cannot take water from irrigation ditches, lakes, or other structures, unless they have an
adjudicated right to the water.
• Weld County covers a land area of approximately four thousand (4,000) square miles in size
(twice the size of the State of Delaware) with more than three thousand seven hundred (3,700)
miles of state and county roads outside of municipalities. The sheer magnitude of the area to be
served stretches available resources. Law enforcement is based on responses to complaints
more than on patrols of the County, and the distances which must be traveled may delay all
emergency responses, including law enforcement, ambulance, and fire. Fire protection is usually
provided by volunteers who must leave their jobs and families to respond to emergencies.
County gravel roads, no matter how often they are bladed, will not provide the same kind of
surface expected from a paved road. Snow removal priorities mean that roads from subdivisions
to arterials may not be cleared for several days after a major snowstorm. Services in rural areas,
in many cases, will not be equivalent to municipal services. Rural dwellers must, by necessity, be
more self-sufficient than urban dwellers.
People are exposed to different hazards in the County than in an urban or suburban setting.
Farm equipment and oil field equipment, ponds and irrigation ditches, electrical power for pumps
and center pivot operations, high speed traffic, sand bars, puncture vines, territorial farm dogs
and livestock, and open burning present real threats. Controlling children's activities is important,
not only for their safety, but also for the protection of the farmer's livelihood.

Dear Mr. Barron:
The following completeness review notes are provided as a courtesy to the applicant.
While we strive to identify significant issues, the following notes may not identify
all issues, even major ones that may be raised during the formal review of your
application. The information contained herein has been placed on file with the
Department of Planning Services.
REVIEW:
The Departments of Public Health and Environment, Public Works and Planning are in
receipt of the seven (7) day packets received June 3, 2011. Departmental staff has
completed their review and offer the following comments.
Environmental Health
• Wash waste impoundment.
• An Engineered Design & Operations Plan (EDOP) is required (facility must meet
Section 9 of waste regs or Section 17 for E&P wastes). A CD is required unless
the wastes are generated on-site by the facility itself. They cannot use Conquest's
Class II injection well for disposal of impoundment wastes unless it is E&P waste
• only. Really need more detail on what they are proposing to determine the correct
path. But in any case an EDOP for the impoundment is required and they should
contact CDPHE Solid Waste Unit also. Typically, we include CDPHE on a case
like this during the pre-application if we're able to identify it as being a concern.
upfront.
• Copy of well permit.
• Need a Waste Handling Plan.
• Need a Dust Abatement Plan.

1. Find i (areas don't need to be exact just estimate)-this is the imperviousness of your site which tells us how much
water soaks into the ground and how much runs off
Grass/Undeveloped = 2%
Gravel =40%
Pavement= 100%

2. Find WQCV from above highlighted#2 equation using a=1.0 and your i from step 1
3. Find required storage from highlighted#3 equation on page SQ-24 using your WQCV from step 2 and the Total Site Area
4. Show the area for the water quality depression on your site plan downstream of any parking, building or operations areas
and label it as"Water Quality Feature, No Build Area". The depression should be 1'-2'deep and have enough volume for
the required storage amount you calculated above. An exiting sump or depression can also he used if it meets the
volume.

DRAINAGE CRITERIA MANUAL (V. 3) STORMWATER QUALITY MANAGEMENT
•
basins can provide less holding time for the predominant number of smaller storms. Larger basins can
result in less net reduction of pollutants than is obtained when using the recommended 80th percentile
capture volume that can be obtained from Figure SQ-2. Storms larger than the 80th percentile events still
receive some treatment when their capacity is exceeded by larger storms, but at a somewhat lower
efficiency. Thus,the law of diminishing returns for cost-effective pollutant removal takes effect, not only
because of the large number of small storms found in the total population of storms, but because the first
flush of runoff for larger storm is also captured and that pollutant removal continues to occur for in-line
capture basins when the runoff exceeds their design capacity.
4.4 Determining the Water Quality Capture Volume
4.4.1 Use of Directly Connected Impervious Area
The procedures described in the RAINFALL and in the RUNOFF chapters of Volume 1 of the Manual are
intended for the design of drainages and flood facilities that prevent damage to property and help protect
human life. These procedures show that the depth of rainfall produced from a design storm varies
somewhat throughout the Denver region and that runoff is a function of total imperviousness. Water
quality enhancement focuses more on the smaller events that deliver frequent flow pulses and pollutant
loads to the receiving waters. The runoff volume for smaller events is especially sensitive to the
impervious area that is hydraulically connected to the stormwater runoff system.
•
The impervious portion of a watershed determines the runoff volume that needs to be used for the design
of water quality facilities, and the percentage of impervious surface therefore becomes important in the
design of structural BMPs. The RUNOFF chapter of the Manual, Volume 1, includes the methodology for
calculating basin imperviousness. This procedure needs to be modified, however,when using the
practice of minimizing directly connected impervious areas in combination with extended detention
basins, retention ponds, wetlands, and other practices depended on a design water quality capture
volume. Whenever applicable, the needed modifications are described in the appropriate chapters of this
volume of the Manual.
4.4.2 Water Quality Capture Volume(WQCVI
All structural BMPs recommended in this volume of Manual are based on the 80th percentile event.
Specific guidance for finding the needed WQCV is provided in each BMP types' design section. This
WQCV varies with the type of BMP used and is based on the time it takes to fully drain the brim-full
WQCV. Figure SQ-2 summarizes the WQCV requirements as a function of the tributary catchments total
imperviousness as a ratio of the total area of the catchment for 6-, 12-, 24-, and 40-hour drain times of
the WQCV.

STORMWATER QUALITY MANAGEMENT DRAINAGE CRITERIA MANUAL (V. 3)
•
Figure SQ-2 is appropriate for use in Colorado's high plains near the foothills. For other portions of
Colorado or of United States, the WQCV obtained from this figure can be adjusted using the following
relationships:
WQCV
WQCV0 =db
0.43
in which,
WQCV = Water quality capture volume taken from Figure SQ-2
WQCVo = Water quality capture volume outside the Denver region
db = Depth of average runoff producing storm from Figure SQ-3 (watershed inches)
Once the WQCV in watershed inches is found from Figure SQ-2, then determine the required storage
volume in acre-feet as follows:
3.
Required storage = WV
2 (Area)
1
in which,
• Required storage = Required storage volume in acre-feet
Area = The tributary catchment's area upstream in acres
The independent variable in Figure SQ-2 is the total imperviousness ratio (i.e., i=I„/100)of the tributary
watershed (catchment). The chapter on RUNOFF in Volume 1 of the Manual contains guidance for how
to find the total imperviousness of a watershed and its use is recommended. Figures SQ-4,SQ-5 and
SQ-6 are duplicated in this chapter to help the reader estimate the imperviousness of single family
residential areas. Note that these figures require the knowledge of the average housing densities,
types of housing, and average human occupied total square footage of the houses in the area to find
the imperviousness of these areas.

fern MEMORANDUM
WpPC TO: PA11-002; Case File, pre-application
COLORADO DATE: January 6, 2011
FROM: Kris Ranslem, Planning Technician
SUBJECT: Pre-Application Meeting prior to submitting
USR for oil and gas support facility
Attendees:
Chester Thompson, Applicant
Heidi Hansen, Public Works
Tom Parko, Planning
Kris Ranslem, Planning
On Thursday, January 6, 2011 an informal discussion took place at the Greeley Administrative
Offices Conference Room regarding a proposed oil and gas support facility. (The legal
description is Lot A RE-3962; Part W2SW4 of Section 24, T3N, R65W of the 6th P.M)
• Background Information:
The applicant has operated High Country Sales for the past 20 years. They refurbish used oil and
gas production equipment. He currently rents three other properties in which he works out of. He
would like to purchase the subject property as rent has increased dramatically. The applicant
intends to move the material from his location adjacent to Tire Mountain. Material may be brought
over from Brighton and Ft. Lupton as well.
The applicant would install a containment pit which would be used to wash out the proposed units.
In addition he intends to place fencing around the perimeter of the property.
There are two full-time employees. The applicant indicated that there wouldn't be much traffic to the
site as they deliver the refurbished units on trailers to job sites.
Building Department
The applicant indicated that in the future he would like to have a shop building onsite(approximately
1200 s.f). The shop would be utilized for welding the equipment. Staff stated that building permits
would be required.
Health Department
The applicant indicated that there is a water well on the property. Staff encouraged him to visit with
the Division of Water Resources regarding the use of the well and permitting requirements.
