• Groundwater Monitoring Plan Heartland Renewable Energy, LLC SE '/ of Section 25 T4N R65W Operated by Colorado Green, LLC A subsidiary of Heartland Renewable Energy, LLC • Prepared by AG PRO 4350 Highway 66 Longmont, CO 80504 970-535-9318 • February 2010 2010-1537 • Table of Contents Table of Contents I Introduction 2 Hydrogeological and Physical Characteristics of Subsurface 2 Proximity to Floodplain 3 Public Water Supply 3 Identification of all Surface Waters 3 Types &Regional Thickness of Unconsolidated Bedrock 4 Monitoring Well Information 4 Ground Water Sampling Plan 4 Groundwater Reporting 5 Monitoring Data Evaluation Using Statistical Methods 5 Appendices 7 • • 1 • Introduction This groundwater monitoring plan has been developed to fulfill requirements of Section 2.2 and Appendix B of the Solid Waste Regulations Pertaining to Solid Waste Sites and Facilities set forth by the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE). This requirement states that facilities must submit a monitoring plan to the Department for review if a specific waiver from groundwater monitoring has not been received from the Department and the local governing authority. Heartland Renewable Energy is a new renewables-based gas production plant planned for construction in south central Weld County Colorado. This proposed facility will import digestible feed stocks such as cattle manure, food wastes and agricultural wastes and process them in anaerobic digesters to produce commercial quantities of natural gas. The proposed facility will be located primarily in Parts of the SE '/o of Section 25, T4N, R65W, 6`h PM. This facility is located approximately 1/4 mile northwest of Weld County Road 49 and 40 intersection and approximately 7 miles southeast of the town of LaSalle, CO. The site that the plant will be constructed on is an approximate 80 acre parcel located on the sand hills between the west bank of the Box Elder Creek located approximately 4 miles east and the east bank of Beebe Draw located approximately 1.25 miles west. • The site is currently native grass and is used for livestock grazing and has oil and gas production equipment on the site. This site is situated at a relatively higher elevation in relation to the local terrain and does not have any major hydrologic features such as natural drainages or irrigation canals located within or adjacent to the proposed facility. The site is predominantly the same as it has historically been with the exception of the oil and gas footprints, the construction of WCR 49 and the construction of the downstream Gilmore ditch. Investigations indicate that groundwater is present under parts of the site at depths of approximately 30ft. These investigations indicate that a shallow water table will likely not be a major concern for construction or operations. Hydrogeological and Physical Characteristics of Subsurface The United States Department of Agriculture's Natural Resources Conservation Service Soil Report for Weld County, Colorado, Southern Part indicates that the type of soil present at the site is Valent sand with 3-9% slopes and Vona loamy sand with 0-3% slopes. Heartland Renewable Energy has had preliminary geotechnical subsurface exploration performed at the site by Soilogic, Inc. to evaluate subsurface site conditions. Six • boreholes were drilled to a depth of 25 feet at various locations on the site. The subsurface materials encountered in the completed test borings consisted of a thin layer 2 • of topsoil and vegetation underlain by a layered system of light brown to brown silty sand and sandy lean clay. The silty sand and sandy lean clay were generally medium dense to dense and medium stiff to stiff respectively and showed low swell potential at current moisture and density conditions. Occasional zones of loose sand were encountered in the completed site borings. The sility sand/lean clay extended to the bottom of five of the six holes to a depth of 25 feet below present site grades. The remaining bore had the silty sand/sandy lean clay extend to a depth of 19 '/2 feet below ground surface and was underlain by weathered brown/grey/rust claystone with interbedded sandstone bedrock to a depth of 25 feet. Groundwater was not encountered in any of the completed site borings at the time of drilling. A copy of the geotechnical report, maps of borehole locations, and drilling logs is included in the D&O Appendix. There are no current groundwater production wells located on this property, however there are existing permitted wells located in both the up gradient and down gradient quarter sections. The recorded groundwater levels of the existing production wells are 175ft up gradient and 120ft down gradient. Soilogic's preliminary subsurface exploration continued to a depth of approximately 30ft at various locations throughout the site, and did not encounter any indications of seasonably high groundwater. Three groundwater monitoring wells have been installed on and adjacent to the proposed site. Additional information regarding the monitoring wells is located in the Monitoring Well Information section of this document. • Proximity to Floodplain The site is not located in any floodplain as evidenced by a review of the Flood Insurance Rate Map. A copy of this map is attached to this document and is located in the D&O Appendix. Public Water Supply No public water supply wells, springs, or surface water intakes exist within one mile of the site. Identification of all Surface Waters This site is generally a west facing slope, however much of the site never historically drained offsite due to the sand hill nature of the site. Any storm water that does drain from the site, generally flows in a west-northwest direction toward the Gilmore ditch located approximately 1/2 mile from the North West corner of the site. Depending on the storm event, runoff may have overtopped the ditch and flowed to Beebe Draw, and then north into Lower Latham Reservoir. No mapped 100-year floodplain affects this property. The USGS topographic maps indicate that a minor area up gradient of the site historically flowed through the site. A site survey of the area indicates that much of this water will flow to natural low depressions in the sand hill topography. • 3 • Types & Regional Thickness of Unconsolidated Bedrock Based on boring log data from the installation of groundwater monitoring wells, MW01 encountered weathered bedrock (sandstone) at a depth of 15 feet below the surface with claystone below at 24 feet to a total well depth of 30 feet. Similarly in MW02, weathered sandstone was encountered as a layer at 44-50 feet below the surface followed by claystone to a total depth of 54 feet. MW03 also had weathered sandstone from 19-23 feet below the surface with claystone to a depth of 30 feet. These results indicate that below the surface of sandy material exists a 4-10 foot thick subsurface layer of weathered sandstone over the site all above a layer of claystone material. Monitoring Well Information Three groundwater monitoring wells have been drilled on and adjacent to the proposed site. Two of the three groundwater monitoring wells intercepted water. MW02 located on the western edge of the proposed site intersected groundwater and the water level on the day of drilling has been determined to be approximately 44ft. MW01 and MW03 did not exhibit static water on the day of drilling. Subsequent readings of the monitoring wells have indicated consistent readings of the static water elevations in MW01 and MW02. Both show a depth to groundwater of approximately 30ft and a static elevation of 4772.8ft in MW01, and 4777.9 in MW02. These monitoring wells will continue to be monitored and two more monitoring wells are being proposed. These new monitoring wells would be drilled to existing groundwater levels and thus allow for additional . monitoring to take place and verification of the groundwater gradient. Boring logs of the installed groundwater monitoring wells are available in the Appendix. Ground Water Sampling Plan Groundwater monitoring wells will be sampled every other month from September 2009 to September 2010 to establish background data for the site and sampled quarterly thereafter. The following constituents listed in Table 1 will be analyzed. Table 1. List of constituents to be analyzed Cations Magnesium Potassium Calcium Sodium Nitrite Nitrate Anions Carbonate Bicarbonate Chloride Sulfate Field pH Specific Temperature Parameters Conductivity Inorganic Arsenic Barium Beryllium Cadmium Antimony Constituents Chromium Cobalt Copper Lead Nickel Selenium Silver Thallium Vanadium Zinc Total Iron Total • Section 9 Dissolved Organic Solids Carbon 4 S Recommendations for industry standards will be followed regarding sample collection, preservation methods, sample holding times, and sample containers for the collected groundwater samples. As a guideline for these standards, the CDPHE's Water Quality Control Division's publication of"Suggested Sampling Protocol for Ground Water Monitoring Wells"will be used. A copy of this document is available in the Appendix. All samples will be labeled with the following information: • Sample number and location • Facility name • Analysis to be conducted • Date and time of sampling Groundwater Reporting Analytical results will be interpreted and summarized in annual reports submitted to Colorado State and Weld County Departments of Public Health and Environment. Groundwater sampling reports will include the following information: • Site map with monitor well locations • • Groundwater elevation and gradient analysis • Statistical analyses • Chain of custody, analytical reports, and laboratory QA/QC data • Analytical data in electronic format Monitoring Data Evaluation Using Statistical Methods The statistical analysis method selected utilizes a combined Shewhart-cumulative sum (CUSUM) control charts for constituent monitoring. This selection is based on the Environmental Protection Agency's Office of Solid Waste's guide for Statistical Analysis of Groundwater Monitoring Data at RCRA Facilities from April of 1989. This method will provide a visual tool of detecting both trends and abrupt changes in the concentration levels of the constituents in the existing groundwater monitoring wells. Control charts are applicable in this situation and will provide a good historical comparison of data. From the population distribution of concentrations of a specific constituent, samples are taken at intervals over time. Statistics are computed and plotted together with upper and/or lower predetermined limits on a chart where the x-axis represents time. If a result falls outside these boundaries, then the process is declared to be"out of control"; otherwise, the process is declared to be"in control." The widespread use of control charts is due to the fact that they can provide a quick visual evaluation of a situation, and remedial action can be taken, if necessary. • 5 • Control charts will be established with available background data from the existing monitoring wells. Recommendations will be followed regarding adjustments to sample means and standard deviations after suggested sampling period intervals. Review of the established control charts will allow for monitoring of the inherent statistical variation of the data collected within a single well, and to flag anomalous results. Further investigation of data points lying outside the established boundaries will be necessary before any direct action is taken. In the event that an increase concentration is detected outside of the set boundaries and deemed to be "out of control", further in depth statistical analysis will be performed to determine the level of remediation action required. The upper Shewhart control limit will be set at SCL=4.5, in units of standard deviation. According to Starks publication in 1988 of"Evaluation of Control Chart Methodologies for RCRA Waste Sites," this combination of k= 1, h= 5, and SCL= 4.5 was found most appropriate for the application of combined Shewhart-CUSUM charts for groundwater monitoring. Contingency Plan • If the quality or quantity of seepage escaping from the impoundments or other on site sources exceeds the approved design limits, as detected by the groundwater monitoring wells, the operator shall notify the CDPHE and Weld County in writing within fifteen (15) working days of the detection of exceedance. Within forty five (45) days a detailed written report assessing the impact and the proposed remedial action shall be submitted. The remedial action shall follow the guidelines set forth in 40 CFR 258.56-8, assessment of corrective measures, selection of remedy and implementation of corrective measures. • 6 • Appendices - Existing and proposed groundwater monitoring well location map - Suggested sampling protocol for groundwater monitoring wells - Groundwater monitoring spreadsheet • • 7 ]Mate - nenavma Rent owe Frerav1 DI.- rwynallann.aaJzIplse I r\ALLTPC9D\ RFAAILPND UFO.P_,1s1u9_QjJDJ TEl bay Nth I N 1.41\\ `GATED,Access _ __ - \ 1 \ I\\ \ o �v n I v� SOIL AMENDMENT STORAGE \ � K RR F� I1 -Ef₹tl e . �t 0 SET36CK �- V A / I u 150 \ \ /2Q0 bUFF RI J �� � • EMERGENCY SPILLWAY � � �� �� V_ GATED DIL/GAS\ACCESS 3 k r/- SECURItt FENCE � ,` ,AROUND WASTE TO ENERGY / - �. \ FACILITY _ — - - 1 -t \ 00 v L / / •11 W$ GAS WEL / I / D W`JS C ` ��\1 K..

COLORADO DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC HEALTH AND ENVIRONMENT WATER QUALITY CONTROL DIVISION Suggested Sampling Protocol for Ground Water Monitoring Wells This guidance document provides suggested practices for conducting groundwater monitoring to demonstrate compliance with Colorado discharge permits. The document is not all inclusive and should be used only as a guide in meeting the Division's compliance expectations. The following sections provide a suggested protocol for monitoring static water level and other groundwater parameters. This protocol includes three methods for groundwater sample collection (Methods A, B, and C), along with information on sampling bottles, holding times, sample quantity, and field sample collection. I. Measurement of Static Water Level I.A. The facility will obtain static water level measurements at each well with either: • I.A.1. an electronic water level indicator, such as that manufactured by Slope Indicator, Solinst, M- scope, Geotechnical Instruments, etc. with a description of the instrument and its specifications as Attachment Ito this protocol; or I.A.2. another acceptable methods of determining the static water level such as a "popper"or a steel tape with a weight. The well shall not be pumped during measurement of static water level. Water level measurements shall be determined from a surveyed measuring point at the top of the protective casing, thereby eliminating the need to compensate for the"casing stick-up". The water levels will be measured with an accuracy of 0.01 feet. The measuring point is to be re-surveyed once per year to ensure accuracy of water elevation. I.B. Instrument Decontamination Procedures. The water level indicator cable and probe ("popper" or steel tape w/weight) shall require decontamination before each use. Procedures to decontaminate the instrument shall be as follows: 1.B.1. Wear new and clean disposable gloves. 1.B.2. Saturate a clean, lint free paper towel in halves with an Alconox-potable water mix on one half and distilled water on the other half. 1.B.3. Wipe the cable as the probe("popper" or steel tape w/weight) is rewound onto the spool with the paper towel allowing the alconox saturated half to come in contact with the cable first. I.B.4. Place the paper towel under the probe ("popper"or steel tape w/weight) to catch rinse fluids. I.B.5. Rinse probe("popper"or steel tape w/weight)with alconox-water mix, followed by a final rinse • with distilled water. 1.B.6. Properly dispose of all used gloves and paper towels. Page 1 of 7 Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment Water Quality Control Division • I.C. Collecting Water Level Data The method by which the water level data will be acquired is as follows: I.C.1. New and clean disposable gloves will be worn. I.C.2. Water levels will be measured from the measuring point at each well. The measuring point is located on the top of the steel protective casing (surface casing). The elevation, relative to mean sea level, of the measuring point shall have been determined by utilizing local benchmarks and survey instruments. I.C.3. The "casing stick-up"will be measured on a quarterly basis. Any change in height of the steel casing above ground surface (stick-up)shall be noted in the operator's logbook. If the distance changes more than 0.04 feet requires that the permittee have the measuring point re- surveyed to verify accuracy of static water elevations. I.C.4. The sampler's name, the date and the time of measurement shall be recorded in a logbook or monitoring form. I.C.5. The depth to water to the nearest 0.01 foot shall be measured by lowering the water level probe ("popper"or steel tape w/weight) into the well. I.C.6. The total depth of the well shall be recorded for each well in the operator's logbook on a quarterly basis. • II. GROUND-WATER SAMPLE COLLECTION II.A. Ground-water sampling shall consist of ground-water sampling equipment decontamination, sample collection, sampling equipment decontamination and documentation of sample collection. II.B. General II.B.1. Prior to initiating ground-water sampling activities, the monitoring person or personnel shall have calibrated all field test equipment and decontaminated all equipment used to obtain a ground-water sample. For a well with a dedicated pump, no decontamination of the pump is necessary. In those circumstances where a non-dedicated pump (and generator) are utilized, the pump and the tubing need to be thoroughly cleaned with a laboratory detergent, like Alconox, or equivalent, followed by several rinses with deionized water. If the sampling equipment has been badly contaminated, the equipment needs to be cleaned with a soft brush and hot-water detergent wash prior to the deionized water rinses. This same procedure is applicable for a bailer and its cable/rope. ll.B.2. Purging of each well is to be accomplished by a dedicated pump, by a bailer, or by a non- dedicated pump. During the purging process, temperature, pH, conductivity and dissolved oxygen are to be determined. Most permits do not require dissolved oxygen at this time. However, in time, all permits shall require dissolved oxygen be determined during the purging, process and prior to sample collection. The measured temperature, pH and conductivity are to be entered onto a log or sampling form. After approximately three casing volumes, a ground- water sample will be collected once there is stabilization (within 10%) between the most recent sample and the previous two readings. If the meter readings for pH, temperature and conductivity do no stabilize, field personnel need only remove five casing volumes before taking a ground-water sample. • 11.6.3. Pursuant to the monitoring requirements in the ground-water discharge permit, ground water collected from the monitoring wells shall, typically, be analyzed for chloride, sulfate, nitrate and total coliform bacteria. In accordance with the "The Basic Standards for Ground Water", the field personnel shall filter the samples for nitrate, chloride and sulfate prior to preservation. [Refer to Regulation No. 41, "The Basic Standards for Ground Water", to determine which Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment Water Quality Control Division • parameters are required to be filtered prior to preservation.] The filter is a 45-micron filter. Some samples require preservative and some do not. The field personnel should obtain the required bottles from the laboratory that is performing the analyses. All samples are to be iced in a cooler until they are handed to the laboratory personnel. 11.8.4. Water in the well is to be withdrawn by sampling pumps, such as Waterra inertia pumps or by using a bailer(it is preferred that the bailer be a double check valve bailer). The sampling pumps may be dedicated to the upgradient and downgradient wells. Dedicated sampling pumps eliminate the potential for cross-contamination between wells and thus need for sampling equipment decontamination. In purging and sampling wells with inertia pumps, a flow rate of approximately one gallon per minute (gpm) is recommended rate to minimize loss of any volatile compounds (This is only a concern for a volatile listed as a permit limit.)from the water to be sampled and analyzed. Provide a description and specifications of the pump(s) or bailer to be utilized. II.C. Method A for Groundwater Sample Collection This method is to be utilized for those wells that produce a sufficient volume of water and have a rapid recovery rate. II.C.1. Prior to purging/sampling, calibrate all test equipment used in the field according to manufacture's specifications. Enter all equipment calibration data into a field logbook. Clean all field test equipment and ground-water sampling equipment. II.C.2. Purge the well water into a collection container to be able to measure and record temperature, • pH, conductivity[and dissolved oxygen]. Continue purging until the stagnant water in the casing has been replaced by formation water. This is best determined by logging the readings for temperature, pH, conductivity[and dissolved oxygen, where applicable] readings. After approximately three casing volumes have been removed from the well and once the most recent reading is within 10% of the previous two readings for each individual field parameter, a ground-water sample will be taken. If the field parameters do not stabilize, a minimum of five casing volumes shall be removed from the well prior to taking a ground-water sample. II.C.3. If a bailer is used to purge the well and to take the ground-water sample, the bailer is to be lowered into the well to what hereinafter is referred to as the "sample depth". "Sample depth" is determined by lowering the bailer to the bottom of the well. Once the bailer is gently resting on the bottom, the field person is to mark this location on the cable. The mark is to be placed directly across from the measuring point while the cable is held taut. Raise the bailer one-foot above the bottom of the well. Mark the cable or place adhesive tape on the cable to indicate the sample depth for future reference. Taking a sample at this elevation should avoid undue amounts of sediments in the sample and prevent sediment interfering with closure of the bailer valve. The well should be purged by bailing from the bottom of the well, until the water level is drawn down to the lowest possible level. Take a "throw-away" sample to determine temperature, pH and conductivity. Record the values and the volume bailed. Allow the water level to recharge to at least four feet in the bottom of the well, or to whatever depth the water recovers in well (less than four feet). Take another"throw away" sample. Continue this procedure until approximately three volumes have been removed and the parameters are within 10% of the previous two readings for each parameter. At this time, the field person will take a sample. If the field parameters do not stabilize, a minimum of five casing volumes shall be removed from the well prior to taking a ground-water sample. II.C.4. Prevent sampling equipment from coming into contact with the ground or a potentially contaminated surface. • II.C.5. For those sample personnel using a bailer, they are to lower the bailer slowly through water column until the bottom of the bailer reaches the sample depth. The sample depth is indicated by a mark or adhesive tape on the cable. The bailer should be raised to the surface and the sample transferred to sample containers with minimal agitation and contact with the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment Water Quality Control Division • atmosphere. The sample should be allowed to flow down the side of the receiving container and not allowed to cascade onto the bottom of the container. II.C.6. For TOC samples, the ground-water sample is to be poured into sample vials without introducing bubbles. The TOC sample vial is to be inverted and gently tapped on a gloved hand to check for air bubbles. If a headspace is detected in the sample vial, discard the sample and then refill. II.C.7. Store samples under ice in an ice chest pending delivery to the laboratory. II.D. Method B for Groundwater Sample Collection II.D.1. This method describes procedures to be performed when the monitoring well(s) are low yielding. A low yielding well is one that is capable of recharging within three hours. This sampling procedure is applicable for both pumps and bailers and includes the following: II.D.2. Prior to purging/sampling, calibrate all test equipment used in the field according to manufacture's specifications. Enter all equipment calibration data into a field logbook. Clean all field test equipment and ground-water sampling equipment. II.D.3. Purge the contents of the well into a container to determine the pH, temperature and conductivity of the water that has seeped into the well. II.D.4. Purge the well until it is dry. • II.D.5. Because recharge takes three hours or less, take another throw away sample to determine temperature, pH and conductivity. Record these values. Once the well has recharged, collect samples in the order indicated in the permit in the paragraph for the compliance schedule addressing the sampling protocol{typically, Part IA.6. (d)(F)or I.A.7. (c)(F)}. II.D.6. After the last ground-water sample is taken, again take a throwaway sample to determine the pH, temperature and conductivity. Record these values and compare to the other two sets of values. II.E. Method C for Groundwater Sample Collection This method describes procedures to be performed when the monitoring well(s) are very low yielding. A"very low yielding"well is one whose time of recharge for sampling is greater than three hours and less than 24 hours. This sampling procedure is applicable for both pumps and bailers and includes the following: II.E.1. Prior to purging/sampling, calibrate all test equipment used in the field according to manufacture's specifications. Enter all equipment calibration data into a field logbook. Clean all field test equipment and ground-water sampling equipment. HERE II.E.2. Pump/bail the water into sample containers. From one of the sample containers determine the temperature, pH and conductivity. As the well has recharges, collect samples in the order indicated in the permit in the paragraph for the compliance schedule addressing the sampling protocol {typically, Part I.A.6. (d)(F)}. III. SAMPLE COLLECTION BOTTLES, HOLDING TIMES AND QUANTITY OF SAMPLE III.A.1. The Water Quality Control Division has recommended procedures for sampling and delivery to • a certified laboratory. The table below lists the proper sampling procedures, sample volumes, type of sample container, preservation and holding time foe a valid sample. FIELD I CONTAINER VOL. REQ.

Plastic bottles are to be made out of polyethylene. Both the plastic bottles and the glass bottles need to have screw caps. All bottles are to be thoroughly cleaned before the sample is placed in them. Those sample bottles for parameters for acidification is needed may already have the acid in them. Do not throw the acid out of the bottles. III.A.3. For the benefit of some permittees who are new to discharge permits, the Division has added this paragraph of discussion of BOD5 sampling. The sample for BOD5 at the influent to the treatment facility is a composite sample. A "composite sample" is defined as a minimum of four(4) grab samples collected at equally spaced two (2) hour intervals and proportioned according to flow. III.A.4. Sample bottles are to be labeled. The label is to affixed to each sample with the following information: III.A.4.a. Location or identification of the sample site, i.e., 3001 or 050A, 050B,etc III.A.4.b. Date and time of collection; III.A.4.c. Name of sampler; III.A.4.d. Type of analysis to be performed on the sample; III.A.4.e. Indicate whether sample was filtered and/or whether acid was added. III.A.5. The permittee is requested to maintain a logbook or a log form to record the sampling procedure. The logbook/form should allow space to log readings for the field parameters of • temperature, pH and conductivity. In addition the field testing procedure should include the time the sample was taken, the volume of water pumped or the number of bails since the last sample plus the cumulative number of bails (or volume). Allow space for a physical description of the sample, whether the sample was clear/turbid, what color(if any)was noted Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment Water Quality Control Division • in the sample(s). In addition to the above information, the logbook/form is to allow space for the following information: III.A.5.a. Location/Identification of sample site (050A, 3001, etc); III.A.5.b. Date and time of sample collection; III.A.5.c. Name of sampler; III.A.5.d. Size of bailer used or the gpm of the pump used for sampling; III.A.5.e. Depth to static water level measured from the"measuring point"; III.A.5.f. Total measured depth of the well; III.A.5.g. Unusual characteristics of the sample or the purging process, such as sediment in the water, or an odor was noted in the sample; III.A.5.h. Time for the well to recover to allow for purging and/or sampling. IV. FIELD SAMPLE COLLECTION AND TESTING Prior to obtaining a ground-water sample for analysis, the ground water is to be sampled for temperature, pH and conductivity. This is typically done with probes and field testing equipment. As a consequence of using this equipment, the manufacturer's instructions for use and calibration must be • followed. IV.A.1. pH Measurement. The sample is not required to be filtered. The pH in ground water is controlled by the carbonate system including gaseous and dissolved carbon dioxide, bicarbonate and carbonate ions. Other dissolved gases, such as hydrogen sulfide and ammonia, can also affect the pH of the ground water. A high sodium concentration will give an anomalous pH reading,which must be corrected according to the recommendation of the manufacturer of the pH electrode. This correction is usually necessary only of pH is greater than 11 and sodium concentration is more than 10 moles per liter. Measurement of pH is temperature is temperature sensitive, so the standard buffers should be within +/- 10C of the sample solution for precise determinations. Calibrate the equipment in strict accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. If the sampling continues from one day to the next, the pH field-testing equipment is to be calibrated each day of its use. The correct buffer solution is to be determined based upon knowledge of the ground water in the area. Typically, the ground water is going to be around 7.0 s.u. The buffer solutions of 7.00 and 10.0 are to be used to calibrate the pH equipment. The pH is to be recorded to the nearest hundredth. Ensure that the buffer solutions are stored properly and approximately at the temperature of the ground water. If the temperature of the ground water were not known, then a temperature near 45 OF would suffice. It is suggested that two probes be available for use. The probe in use should be kept wet in deionized water or according to the manufacturer's instructions. IV.A.2. Specific Conductance. Specific conductance is to be measured for each monitoring well during the purging process. The meter is to be calibrated in strict adherence to the manufacturer's instructions. The meter is to be calibrated on each day that sampling is to occur. Calibration is made by using the 0.00702 N standard solution at the ambient temperature. The temperature control is set at 250C, and the ambient temperature of the standard KCI solution is recorded. A value of specific conductance is obtained and compared with values given in a graph of Specific conductance at 250C and specific conductance of a • 0.00702 N KCI solution at various temperatures. The meter is to be within five (5) percent of the graph. Specific conductance meters used in the field should be battery operated, equipped with temperature compensator and read directly in micromhos/cm at 25 0C. The direct reading meter is recommended to save time in converting resistance values to specific conductance and to insure that the value is read in the field. Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment Water Quality Control Division • IV.A.3. Temperature. Measurement of ground-water temperature is most accurate when the ambient temperature is within 200C of the ground-water temperature. New or little-used wells may develop new producing zones during pumping, thereby varying the proportion of water entering the well from different depths and causing either an instantaneous change or continual drift in the temperature measurements. Drawdown may cause dewatering of certain beds and may cause a change in temperature. Pumping time insufficient to allow equilibration of water temperature in the casing and pump column will also cause drift of the temperature. Samples should be collected as close to the wellhead as possible. If a container is used to hold the sample, the first sample should sit in the container for one to two minutes in order to allow container to equilibrate. The sample is to be thrown out after the one to two minutes and a second sample is to be collected into the container and the temperature should be recorded immediately. • • ' III `aI 1 Ir ; I Y I 1 I t I Y J I'I III II Lill L__ fl E E 21. 3 I Y , All £ 1 I E I I Ix 1 i .

Hazardous Waste Per Section 2.1.2 (C)(1), it is the responsibility of the waste generator to determine if their waste is a hazardous waste pursuant to the Colorado Hazardous Waste Regulations. 2. Screening/Documentation Each generator of atypical feedstocks (e.g FOG, slaughter waste) shall provide a generator waste characterization form prior to initial receipt of the waste, identifying any hazardous wastes. Annually the generator shall provide a statement that their waste processes and/or feedstocks have not changed and every three years resubmit a waste profile. Any new potential feedstocks shall submit a generator waste characterization form,handling methods, and analysis/MSDS for approval from the Department and Weld County prior to acceptance. All raw materials received will be from known contracted sources. No random, unsolicited or general public"drop-off'materials will be accepted at the site. Feedstocks and bulking agents will arrive at the facility by truck or other means of transportation. After an initial visual screening of the material, receipt of the feedstocks and bulking agents will be documented. Documentation will include generator and • transporter information, classification of the material, and volume information. If required, samples of the materials may be taken at this time. After documentation is completed, the materials will be delivered to the designated composting/recycling operation and offloaded at designated areas for blending or mixing or placement in windrows. 3. Specific Waste Stream Handlings Foodwaste/FOG/Slaughter Waste Procedure: Upon receipt, all feedstocks shall be unloaded in its appropriate area and directly processed into the digestion process. 4.Contingency The shipping/receiving procedures described are intended to discourage the presence of any CDPHE "unapproved wastes". Deliveries to the site will be from known sources and routine suppliers. Unexpected deliveries from unknown sources are not planned or expected. Should an unapproved waste be inadvertently brought to the site, the deliverer will not be allowed to unload and will be required to leave the premises. Should an unapproved waste be delivered and unloaded, it shall be managed in accordance with all applicable laws, regulations and ordinances. • • Waste Characterization Form Heartland Renewable Energy Generator/Transporter Information Generator Transporter Name Name Address Address Generator Transporter Contact Contact Telephone Telephone Waste Stream Information General Material Description: Process Generating Waste: • Shipping Frequency: Shipping Volume: o Once o Weekly o Monthly o Yearly o Tons o Yards o Gallons oOther: Shipping Container: o Dump end o Roll out o Drums o Other: Physical Properties Physical State at 70°F: Odor: Color: o Solid o None Texture: o Liquid o Mild Density: o Semisolid o Strong Free liquids o Yes o No Percent solids (if known): Is this a Hazardous Waste as defined by Colorado Hazardous Waste 6CCR 1007-3 o Yes o No Does this waste contain (check all that apply): o PCBs o Friable Asbestos o Yard/Landscaping Waste o Construction Debri o CFCs or HCFCs o Raw Sewage o Oil/Gas Products/Soil o Organic Chemicals o Medical Waste o Whole Tires o Low Level Radioactive Waste o Other: o Universal Waste o Used Oil o Non Friable Asbestos o None of the Above Attached Information: o Analytical o Material Safety Data Sheet o Other: • Non-Hazardous Certification • I hereby certify that I am the Generator, or I am authorized by the Generator to provide the information submitted in this form including any attached documents and to enter into this agreement on the generator's behalf.

The site is a `controlled access site' for Heartland's processing use only. The site is not a public access facility. Activity on the site will occur primarily during daylight hours, entrance gates will be secured, and access will be restricted at all times. Any unapproved waste discovered at the site will be managed in accordance with all applicable laws, rules and ordinances. 2. Deliveries to the site will be from known sources and contracted suppliers. Deliveries are scheduled in advance. Unexpected deliveries from unknown sources will not be accepted. Should an unapproved waste be inadvertently brought to the site, the provider will not be allowed to unload and will be required to leave the premises. • 3. All above ground tanks shall have secondary containment. A low permeability compacted clay pad will be placed under each tank. An earthen berm designed for 110% containment of the largest tank shall be constructed. The tanks and containment area will be visually inspected for leaks on a monthly basis. If there is a tank failure they will seal up in short order and the spilled contents will be removed promptly Each wet well used for feedstocks will have secondary containment similar to the digesters. A containment membrane will be installed, with a geotextile fabric overlayed, and then an aggregate base (sand or gravel) will be placed over these layers. The floor will be sloped to drain to a sump at the end. This will be visually inspected for leaks monthly. 4. Digester leak detection will be provided by a sump installed at the downstream end of each digester. This sump will be located in a dry well at the discharge end of each digester and will be visually inspected once per month. Documentation of these inspections will be placed in the facility's operations records. If liquid is found in the sumps, it will be sampled for evidence of material from within the digesters. The facility operator shall provide written notification to the Division within seven days of discovering liquid in the leak detection system. If this sampled liquid is found to contain any material from within the digesters,a report summarizing the management of the liquid from the leak detection system • including volume of liquid removed, analytical test results, and liquid disposition. The report will also include repairs performed on the leaking vessel. The report • shall be provided in writing to the Division within thirty days of receiving analytical results or completion of the repairs. 5. The protection of any surface water or ground water will be accomplished by maintenance of the compost work areas with slopes maintained to enhance surface water runoff to the storm water retention areas. Corrective and/or remedial procedures will be taken in the event that contamination of groundwater or surface water from the facility is discovered and substantiated. 6. Nuisance Conditions including odor and/or flies will be minimized by applying best management practices in the soil amendment area and to the soil amendment windrows, if necessary, as described in the nuisance management sections of this document. • • • Fire Protection Plan 14.3.3(H) Fire protection shall be provided by the LaSalle Volunteer Fire Department. Additionally the site shall have fire extinguishers in each facility building at distance intervals to meet existing fire codes and OSHA regulations. A water source and pump will be located on- site and fire monitoring and suppression systems will be designed and installed to meet all applicable fire codes. The following fire plan was developed to include: a) Access to the site will be clearly marked by signage posted at the main entrance. The signage will identify emergency 911 phone number as well as the emergency phone number to contact and notify the emergency personnel. b) The site service road will provide access to all areas of the site being used for the waste to energy and composting process and allow for equipment access and tumarounds within the site. c) The best method for extinguishing a compost fire is to smother the fire with soil. Soil will be obtained from areas within the site. Equipment necessary for • moving large quantities of soil and capable of smothering the typical compost pile will be maintained on-site at all times. This equipment will typically consist of a rubber-tire loader. Procedures for fire suppression are: 1. Segregate burning material to reduce the threat of fire spreading to other areas 2. Excavate soil from the site with a loader or multiple loaders as necessary 3. Completely cover the burning compost pile with soil sufficient to smother the fire and eliminate oxygen to the fire 4. When smoke stops, spread the pile and re-cover or mix with soil to eliminate potential hot-spots. • • Odor Management Plan 14.3.3(l) Odors result from natural decomposition processes and continue as long as any usable material remains as food for microorganisms. Odor strength depends on the kind of feedstock, and the conditions under which it decomposes. The odors from the expected feedstocks at the Heartland site are not dangerous to human health, while the odor will be comparable to typical composting operations. Odor will be greatly reduced in comparison to an animal feeding operation. All incoming waste streams will be stored temporarily in enclosed/covered storage areas that will employ a bio-filter for the reduction of any offensive odors. In the event odor conditions do arise, remedial action shall be taken to mitigate the offensive odor On-Site: Odors associated with the composting process will be minimized by frequently turning the windrows as needed in order to introduce oxygen into the waste mass and accelerate the bio-degradation of the soil amendment which in turn will minimize odors. Off-Site: In the event off-site odors are detected above acceptable levels, Heartland will evaluate the materials stored onsite and the materials in process and will: 1. Accelerate the incorporation of raw manures into the composting process 2. Limit new material to the site until odor conditions are abated 3. Remove offending material from the site if necessary Key practices of Heartland Renewable Energy for the control of odor are: 1. Establish good surface drainage Dry manure is less odorous than moist manure. Manure will be processed within 72 hours of arrival on site. Material will be processed with 24 hours when nuisance conditions arise. Maintaining good site drainage can be achieved by regular grading of the soil amendment storage areas. The facility will conduct routine grading to reduce standing water that can produce odor. 2. Reduce standing water Standing water can increase microbial digestion and odor producing by-products. Proper surface maintenance and surface grading will be conducted to reduce standing water. The wastewater ponds will be dewatered within 30 days after a 25-year,24-hour storm event. 3. Composting Proper composting turns manure into a nearly odorless, pathogen-free product that is valuable for soil conditioning. Heartland Renewable Energy will maximize compost processing on the land area available for that purpose. 4. Dewatering and Processing timing Typically air rises in the morning and sinks in the evening. Heartland Renewable Energy will consider weather conditions and prevailing wind direction to • minimize odors from soil amendment turning activities. Typically, odorous activities will be timed for early mornings. IP N • Heartland Renewable Energy, LLC Facility Sampling/Analysis Procedure I. Overview: The primary source of animal manure waste will be generated by local feedlots and dairies. Each load of raw material received at the compost site will be logged into a traffic journal maintained at the compost site. The manure received will be stockpiled for up to 72 hours before entering the anaerobic digestion process. II. Initial Sampling/Analysis: a. Sampling Procedure: Each newly accepted feedstock shall have an analysis provided by the generator prior to receipt and shall be updated annually or as needed. Routine on-site sampling and analysis of all feed stocks will be conducted with the on-site laboratory. Based on the analysis provided, along with the recipes, the raw materials shall be blended accordingly. III. Final Sampling/Analysis a. Sampling Frequency In compliance with 14.5.2 of the CDPHE regulations "Finished compost will be sampled and tested once every 10,000 cubic yards of compost produced, or annually, whichever is more frequent; and finished compost which has been sampled and tested but to which additional feed stocks are added prior to or during distribution, shall be re-sampled and re-tested prior to commencing or continuing distribution. b. Sampling Procedure: In compliance with 14.5.4 of the CDPHE regulations, the following sampling procedure will be implemented to "---assure valid and representative analytical results" Once the compost operations supervisor determines that an individual windrow of processed digester waste appears to have completed the bio-degradation cycle, random grab samples of the processed material will be collected at the designated N 1 Heartland Renewable Energy, LLC Facility Sampling/Analysis Procedure linear intervals within the storage piles. Each grab sample should consist of+/- %z pound of sample material and should be placed in one or more clean plastic 5 gallon pails. The grab samples will then be thoroughly blended in a large plastic tub. Once the sample mass has been successfully homogenized, a 1 pound composite sample will be collected and placed in a 1 gallon ziplock bag; placed in a cooler or refrigerated container, and delivered within 8 hours to a designated laboratory with a"chain of custody" document completed for each sample submitted (several samples may be entered on a single document form.) c. Analysis Procedure In compliance with 14.5 Table 1 of the CDPHE regulations, the following analysis shall be conducted for finished compost to be sold or distributed for off- site use.
