("Encana")no longer proposes to use our Wattenberg facility on the above described lands for the operation of a land farm, a compressor station, or the rebuilding of the original processing plant, all of which were part of the application for the 4th Amendment to USR 589. Therefore Encana wishes to withdraw the application for the 4"'Amendment to USR 589. The 3rd Amended USR 589 will continue to apply to the property. At this time we plan to continue our current usage on this property, which includes occupying and using the office from time to time, outside storage of oil field equipment, a staging area for various projects, use of the warehouse for inside storage, and our field measurement testing and calibrations building, all of which are permitted under the existing 3rd Amended USR 589.

The purpose of the inspection was to assess the facility's compliance with 4th Amended Use by Special Review Permit#589(41h AmUSR-589)and the Weld County Code. There was no soil treatment taking place at the facility and as discussed, Encana may submit a request to change environmental monitoring frequency to perform environmental monitoring semi-annually(both soil and groundwater monitoring). The Department would also allow the cessation of soil sampling beneath the treatment area during periods of inactivity, provided that after a•period of inactivity and resumption of soil treatment, soil samples are collected for two sampling periods, prior to again ceasing soil sampling due to inactivity. The Department's approval of a change in groundwater monitoring frequency' from quarterly to semi-annual would also be dependent upon Colorado Oil &Gas Conservation Commission concurrence. i The plat for 4th AmUSR-589 has not been recorded. Health Department related prior to recording the plat condition numbe I. J. still needs to be satisfied. Per our discussions,Encana may record the plat or vacate the use. Provide attachment referenc�ied under the Storm Water Containment Structure & Capacity section of your Design & Operations Plan for the facility that was to consist of plans stamped and signed by a Colorado Licensed Professional Engineer that demonstrate stormwater run-on and irun- off controls for the treatment area have been designed per COGCC Rule 908 b. (5) E. The Department would also accept a signed and stamped document from the CO PE stating the same. In addition, the Department of Planning Services requires the submittal of an updated accurate plat map and screening plan. Please contact Chris Gathman of the Weld County Department of Planning Services at(970)353-6100,ext. 3537 for information regarding recording or vacating 4thAmUSR-589 and see the attached letter,dated October 17, 2011. i If you have any questions regarding this matter, please contact me at(970) 304-6415,ext. 2219. ii Sincerely, i Troy E.

I also re-forwarded a message to Dale Hayhurst with Encana re: preparing the partial vacation plat for 2"d AMUSR-589. In my last conversation with— Dale—he indicated that Encana would not be proceeding with their USR (4'h AMUSR-589) and would be withdrawing this application. I have not received anything in writing from Encana stating that this would be the course of action that they will take. Have you heard anything? If Encana does in fact withdraw their USR, then they will not have to address the items in my message below, they will only have to address the partial vacation plat outlined in my"Partial Vacation of Encana correspondence" attachment.

I have been trying to catch up on everything after I got back. I have reviewed the plat and have the following changes: 1) Remove any accesses not located within the boundaries of the USR on the plat. 2) Modify the legal description to match the description of the Special Use Permit: "Lot B of RE-1595 and Part of Lot A RE-641; located in Part of the SE4 of Section 28,T1N, R67W of the 6"' PM, Weld County,Colorado" 3) Our building fee notes have changed since this USR was approved—Please replace notes 27 and 28 with the following notes: Effective April 25, 2011, Building Permits issued on the proposed lots will be required to adhere to the fee structure of the Weld County Road Impact Program. (Ordinance 2011-2) Effective April 25, 2011, Building Permits issued on the proposed lots, will be required to adhere to the fee structure of the County Facility Fee and Drainage Impact Fee. (Ordinance 2011-2) 4) Please put a space between note 13 and the following paragraph, label the following paragraph as note#14 and renumber subsequent notes. 5) A screening plan will need to be submitted and approved if any onsite material storage is existing/proposed—the screening plan shall be reviewed by staff and placed on the plat. 6) The buildings and layout of the site seem to show existing conditions.The plat should at a minimum match what was shown on the original plat map that was submitted with the application. If not,then what is shown on the plat is less than what was approved and there is no reason to record the USR plat and stick with the previous USR plat that was recorded (2' AMUSR-589).

I was out of the office last week and am now catching up: Here are two items of correspondence I sent in February and May of this year. The February correspondence outlines remaining conditions of approval if Encana decides to proceed and wrap up 4th AMUSR-589/ in addition to submitting an amended corrected plat that is outlined in the February e-mail. (My last conversations indicated that Encana was headed in this direction). The May correspondence applies only if Encana officially withdraws the 4th AMUSR-589 application. I have received a draft 4th AMUSR-589 plat from Drexell Burrell and will be reviewing it this week. Once these USR items are taken care of then we can proceed with finalizing and recorded AMRE-1595 and AMRE-641. The only corrections to these plats were to change the signature blocks— Now that High Sierra owns one of the parcels and there was a minor distance correction on the plat (I have already spoken to Drexel-Barrell about this).

Submit a letter to the Department of Planning Services requesting the partial vacation. b. Submit a revised map to the Department of Planning Services illustrating the vacated portion of the property and the existing permit. 4. Upon determination of compliance with the original Use by Special Review permit and all applicable applications, this Chapter and Chapter 29 of this Code, by the Department of Planning Services, the applicant shall be granted a partial vacation of the Use by Special Review permit. 5. Once approved, the applicant must submit a plat conforming to Subsection 23-2-260.D of this Code. This plat shall illustrate the vacated portions of the property/operation. The plat shall contain two (2) vicinity maps. The first shall illustrate the use boundary prior to the partial vacation. The second shall illustrate the use boundary after the partial vacation. 3) The plat will contain all of the information that was on the original 2n°AMUSR-589 plat (the development standards, signature blocks...). The only difference will be that the before and after vicinity map shall be added and the revised USR boundary shall be indicated. Once we receive this information we can schedule this before the Board of County Commissioners for approval. Let me know if you have any questions.

I have been trying to catch up on everything after I got back. I have reviewed the plat and have the following changes: 1) Remove any accesses not located within the boundaries of the USR on the plat. 2) Modify the legal description to match the description of the Special Use Permit: "Lot B of RE-1595 and Part of Lot A RE-641; located in Part of the SE4 of Section 28,T1N, R67W of the 6th PM,Weld County, Colorado" 3) Our building fee notes have changed since this USR was approved —Please replace notes 27 and 28 with the following notes: Effective April 25, 2011, Building Permits issued on the proposed lots will be required to adhere to the fee structure of the Weld County Road Impact Program. (Ordinance 2011-2) Effective April 25, 2011, Building Permits issued on the proposed lots, will be required to adhere to the fee structure of the County Facility Fee and Drainage Impact Fee. (Ordinance 2011-2) 4) Please put a space between note 13 and the following paragraph, label the following paragraph as note#14 and renumber subsequent notes. 5) A screening plan will need to be submitted and approved if any onsite material storage is existing/proposed —the screening plan shall be reviewed by staff and placed on the plat. 6) The buildings and layout of the site seem to show existing conditions.The plat should at a minimum match what was shown on the original plat map that was submitted with the application. If not, then what is shown on the plat is less than what was approved and there is no reason to record the USR plat and stick with the previous USR plat that was recorded (2"d AMUSR-589). I have attached copies of both the draft plat that was submitted with this application and the current plat that is of record on this site. Let me know if you have any questions.

The only item needed on these are signatures from Encana. In regards to 4th AMUSR 589: I have attached the 4th AMUSR 589 resolution (see attachment 1) . I spoke to Troy Swain with weld County Environmental Health re: their pending conditions and he indicated the one outstanding condition was condition J - (He needs a stamped & sealed plan from a Colorado Registered Engineer indicating the site meets the berming and containment standards per Co orado Oil and Gas Commission Rule 907) . Conditions C,D,E,F,G and I have been addressed. ondition B is still outstanding (see the 2nd attachment) . If any existing buildings have had a change in use the proper permits need to be applied for (we have no record of any permits being applied for since Board approval in 2/2008) . We either need evidence that the proper building permits have been applied for any existing buildings that have changed in use or written evidence/statement that no uses have changed or will change in existing buildings and therefore no building permits will be necessary. Condition K is still outstanding Condition L is still outstanding (see the 3rd attachment) . In addition the plat still needs to be finalized (see Condition 1.A in the attached resolution) . Let me know if you have any questions or need anything else.
