Background The site is located in a portion of the SW 1/4 of Section 29 and a portion of the NW 'A of Section 32, Township 6 North, Range 63 West of the 6th P.M., Weld County, Colorado. The purpose of the proposed development is to permit an existing use on the site for a roustabout and trucking operations. There is an existing office and shop building on the site along with equipment storage and laydown areas and a fuel station. The subject parcel is lot A of the RE Plat which has been submitted concurrently with the USR application. Lot is 22.60 acres. There are no drainage ways on or adjacent to the site. There are irrigation facilities on adjacent properties. This area has not been mapped by FEMA. Refer to the Use by Special Review Plans for more information. Off-Site Drainage There is an off-site basin (Basin O) located to the southeast that drains into the site. Basin O is approximately 82.6 acres. Flows within this basin are generally in a sheetflow condition to the northwest over moderately sloping agricultural land. Sub-basin O1 was delineated in order to quantify runoff to the drainage swale located at the northwest corner of the site. Sub-basin O1 is approximately 3 .3 acres. Flows from Basins O and O1 will be contained within the on-site water quality depression. On-Site Stormwater The overall site has been designated as basin A and is 22.6 acres. Approximately half of this basin is north of an existing private gravel road and the other half is south of the private road. Flows in this basin are generally in a sheet flow condition to the northwest and west. There is a Corporate Headquarters High Plains Rocky Mountains Downtown Golden Downtown Greeley Ski Village 700 12th Street, Suite 220 710 11th Avenue, Suite 105 1815 Central Park Drive, #370 Golden, Colorado 80401 Greeley, Colorado 80631 Steamboat Springs, Colorado 80487 Ph 303.940.9966 Ph 970.353.7600 Ph 970.879.1825 Fax 303.940.9959 Fax 970.353.7601 Fax 866.242.9106 Pagel 15155Drainage Letter.doc low point in the existing private gravel road at the west end of the parcel where flows from the southern portion of the lot cross and continue to the existing storm water quality depression. Sub-basin Al is 3.3 acres and was analyzed for the purpose of sizing a drainage swale located in the northwest corner of the site. The swale will direct stormwater during the minor storm event into the existing water quality depression. The swale will be a v-ditch with 3 : 1 side slopes and one foot deep. The existing water quality depression is located at the northwest corner of the site. The water quality depression has been sized to accommodate flows from Basin A and Basins O and O1 . The required storage volume is 26,242 cf or 0.602 acre-feet. The maximum water quality depth will be approximately 2 feet. Calculations are attached for all proposed drainage features. Refer to the Use by Special Review Plans for more information. Conclusion The proposed development should not have any adverse impacts on existing drainage patterns or adversely affect downstream properties or structures.

CaII before you dig. °tlitt,•, 'S N •wawa DI - r ex¢r i v I to,y — DI TRAFFIC MEMO To: Weld County CC: Baseline Project File — 15155, Wells Ranch USR From: Rick Behning, PE Date: April 26, 2012 Re: Wells Ranch LLC — Roustabout and Trucking Trip Generation OVERVIEW This traffic memo is prepared to accompany the USR permit application for the Roustabout and Trucking uses proposed by various entities on Wells Ranch. This memo provides an overview of the long term traffic associated with this site. BACKGROUND The site is located approximately 1.5 miles east of the intersection of WCR 64 and WCR 61. WCR 64 and WCR 61 are controlled by a stop sign on WCR 64. Both WCR 61 and WCR 64 are gravel roads with 60' ROW. WCR 64 ROW has been vacated about one mile east of WCR 61, therefore the access to the site is on a private gravel road after the ROW ends. The use on the site consists of office, storage, parking, and mechanical support of several trucking and roustabout oilfield service operations. There is a future building contemplated on site, but no additional traffic will be generated once the building is constructed. This memo assesses current and anticipated future traffic generation associated with the site operations. Trip distribution out to WCR 64 and WCR 61 is primarily based on the oil and gas activities on the interior of the ranch. It is estimated that 80% of the operational trips will be into the ranch and will not utilize public roads. The other 20% is anticipated to leave the ranch via WCR 64 and WCR 61 to head to other work locations in Weld County. TRIP GENERATION Operational Traffic The long term operation of the site will include several entities utilizing the office and yards. The following vehicle summaries have been used to determine the anticipated traffic generation numbers: • Overall Employees — 105 • Office/Mechanic staff — 6 • Work Vehicles — 65 • Average Daily Deliveries - 2 The following table depicts the expected long term trip generation for the operation : Table 1. Operational Traffic Trip Generation Summary Table Phase Maximum Daily Vehicle Trips Employees/Visitors/Trucks Average Daily Operation Employee Trips 105 employees/day 210 vehicle trips/day* Operational Trips 65 mobilizations/day 195 vehicle trips/day** Delivery Truck Trips 2 trucks/day 4 vehicle trips/day * Total Daily Trips 409 vehicle trips/day *One inbound and one outbound trip per day. **Average of 3 trips/day multiplier. TRIP DISTRIBUTION Approximately 40% of operational vehicles exiting the site during an average day will exit towards WCR 61 on WCR 64. All employees will utilize this same route to access the site on a daily basis. Similarly, deliveries will also access the site from WVR 61 and WCR 64. Table 2 provides a summary of operational trips utilizing the public ROW. Table 2. WCR 64 Trip Generation Summary Table Phase Maximum Daily Vehicle Trips Employees/Visitors/Trucks Average Daily Operation Employee Trips 190 employees/day 380 vehicle trips/day* Operational Trips 39 mobilizations/day 117 vehicle trips/day** Delivery Truck Trips 2 trucks/day 4 vehicle trips/day * Total Daily Trips 501 vehicle trips/day *One inbound and one outbound trip per day. **Average of 3 trips/day multiplier. 2 CONCLUSION The ongoing use of the site and associated traffic is consistent with the existing uses on surrounding properties and existing traffic on WCR 64 and WCR61. The intersection of WCR 64 and WCR 61 has a stop control on WCR 64 and adequate line of site for proposed traffic volumes. The access and use of the site as an office and trucking yard should not create any adverse impacts on the surrounding road network. 3 Hello
