The expansion will include a new gas plant, three (3) to four(4) compressor stations and interconnecting pipelines. This Use by Special Review (USR) permit application addresses only the Godfrey Bottoms compressor station. Additional USR permit applications will be submitted for the remaining compressor stations, the gas plant, and pipelines. The Godfrey Bottoms compressor station site is located southwest of Greeley, CO, in central Weld County. DCP intends to construct the compressor station between early 2012 and 2013. The total site will be approximately 150 acres; however, only 10 acres are expected to be disturbed by construction or operation activities. After construction, a 3-strand barbed wire fence will be installed along the property boundary per CDPHE's requirements under the NOX regulations. The compressor site will be fully fenced with a 6-foot chain link fence with a security gate. The area inside the fence will be graveled. The area outside the fence will be re-vegetated with native grasses. After construction, the site will be un-manned. Because the site will not be regularly occupied, • permanent sewage and water utilities will not be provided. However, bottled water and a portable sewage unit will be provided by DCP. DCP met with representatives of the La Salle Fire Protection District on June 28, 2011 to discuss fire protection for the Godfrey Bottoms compressor station. In the event of a fire, it is anticipated that water or chemical retardants will be transported to the site. A lock box on the entry gate will provide access to the site. Weld County code stipulates noise levels for industrial or construction sites be below 80 dB(A) from 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. and below 75 dB(A) from 9:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m. DCP does not foresee exceeding these limitations during the construction or operation of the compressor station. Weld County code stipulates light rays will not shine directly onto adjacent properties where such would cause a nuisance or interfere with the use on the adjacent property. Also stipulated in the code is: "Neither direct nor reflected light from any light source may create a traffic hazard to operators of motor vehicles on public or private streets and colored lights that may be confused with or construed as traffic control devices shall not be used." DCP does not intend to use excessive lighting and does not foresee exceeding limitations regarding lighting on the Godfrey Bottoms compressor station. • • Table of Contents Use by Special Review Application Exhibit A Plat Map 24x36 Exhibit B Plat Map 8.5x11 Exhibit C Plat Map Digital Copy no exhibit Use by Special Review Questionnaire Exhibit D Weld County Road Access Information Sheet Exhibit E Evidence of Adequate Water Supply Exhibit F Evidence of Adequate Sewage Disposal Exhibit G Deed and/or Ownership Information Exhibit H Certificate of Conveyance Exhibit I Soils Report Exhibit J • Affidavit and Certified List of Surface/Mineral Owners Exhibit K Emergency Information Sheet Exhibit L Notice of Inquiry/IGA Boundary Exhibit M Application Fee no exhibit Investigation Fee no exhibit Use by Special Review Plat Recording Fee no exhibit Drainage Report Exhibit N Traffic Statement Exhibit 0 Flood Hazards Exhibit P Geological Hazards Exhibit Q Dust Abatement Plan Exhibit R Waste Management Plan Exhibit S • • Exhibit A USR Application • • • Exhibit B Plat Map 24" x 36" See map, next page. • • Exhibit D USR Questionnaire 1.

Also, a storm water management plan will be followed to mitigate soil erosion and sediment transport during the construction phase. After construction is complete, the site will be stabilized using native vegetation outside the fenced area. Areas within the fenced boundary will be graveled, as will the access drive. If necessary, a water truck will be used to control dust after construction. A tracking pad consisting of double cattle guards will be installed across the site entrance. • • Exhibit S Waste Management Plan Waste generation at the Godfrey Bottoms compressor station will be negligible. Chemicals anticipated on site include: • 100 bbl produced water tanks—2 • 30,000 gal pressurized condensate tanks—2 • 200 gal lube oil tank-1 • 1,000 gal methanol tank-1 • 80 bbl slop oil tank— 1 DCP containerizes all wastes and contracts for its disposal with a government permitted facility(ies). A spill prevention, control, and counter measures (SPCC) plan will be developed to outline appropriate actions in the event of a spill. The plan will be specifically developed for the Godfrey Bottoms compressor station prior to initiation of start-up activities. It will cover secondary containment requirements, response actions, and waste disposition and disposal in the event of a spill or release. DCP has detailed policies and procedures in place that will be • applied to the specifics of any spill or release resulting from its operations. DCP's SPCC plan will be written in accordance with requirements set forth by the Environmental Protection Agency.
