fire protection measures for the proposed shop will be evaluated at the time of building
permit through the Fire District Notification process.
21. Explain how this proposal is consistent with the Weld County Comprehensive Plan per
Chapter 22 of the Weld County Code.
The approval of this request is consistent with Section 22-2-10 B. of the Weld County
Code, which states "One of the basic principles upon which the United States was
founded is the right of citizens to own and utilize property so long as that use complies
with local regulations and does not interfere with or infringe upon the rights of others."
Page 5 of 8
The proposed use will not inhibit agricultural production or operations and is harmonious
with the surrounding land uses.
22. Explain how this proposal is consistent with the intent of the zone district in which it is
located.(Intent statements can be found at the beginning of each zone district section in
Article III of Chapter 23 of the Weld County Code.)
The A(Agricultural)Zone District is intended to provide areas for the conduct of
agricultural activities and activities related to agriculture and agricultural production, and
for areas for natural resource extraction and energy development, without the interference
of other incompatible land uses. The proposed use supports the natural resource
extraction and energy development occurring in Weld County. In addition, Article III of
Chapter 23 of the Weld County Code lists oil and gas support and service businesses as a
use allowed by special review outside of subdivisions and historic townsites.
23. Explain how this proposal will be compatible with future development of the surrounding
area or adopted master plans of affected municipalities.
The subject property is not within any coordinated planning areas or growth management
areas of any municipalities. The site is within the Weld County Comprehensive Plan
Opportunity Zone that overlays WCR 49. Zone changes to commercial and industrial
districts are anticipated within the Opportunity Zone.
24. Explain how this proposal impacts the protection of the health,safety and welfare of the
inhabitants of the neighborhood and the County.
The proposed use is expected to have minimal impact on the health, safety, and welfare
of the inhabitants of the neighborhood and the County. Business-related traffic will be
minimal, and operations will occur primarily in the shop buildings or off-site at specific
job locations. A Nuisance and Waste Management Plan has been developed and is
included with this request.
25. Describe any irrigation features. If the proposed use is to be located in the A(Agricultural)
Zone District,explain your efforts to conserve prime agricultural land in the locational
decision for the proposed use.
The Neres Canal runs north-south along the western edge of the property. There is an
existing recorded easement and the operation does not impede on the continued
maintenance of the canal. The operations area will be located on non-irrigated dryland.
The proposed use will not inhibit agricultural production or operations.
26. Explain how this proposal complies with Article V and Article XI of Chapter 23 if the
proposal is located within any Overlay Zoning District(Airport,Geologic Hazard,or
Historic Townsites Overlay Districts)or a Special Flood Hazard Area identified by maps
officially adopted by the County.
The site is not located within any Floodplain, Geologic Hazard, or Historic Townsites
Overlay Districts.

1.0 Introduction
1.1 Location
The proposed site is Lot B of RE-2551, located in part of the Southwest Quarter of
Section 6, Township 3 North, Range 64 West of the 6th P.M. This site is located on
County Road 36, approximately 750 feet east of County Road 49 (Weld County
Highway) and approximately 9 miles east of Gilcrest, CO. The site is surrounded by
agricultural zoned property. A vicinity map is shown in Appendix A.
1.2 Description of Property
The applicant is proposing the development of 28.73 acres the 89.86-acre parcel. 52.2
acres were studied in the scope of this report, which includes offsite flows onto the
developed area. The subject property is an existing residential and agricultural property.
There is one dwelling, three sheds/equipment buildings, and several agricultural buildings
used primarily as livestock shelters. The dwelling and accessory buildings are existing
and not included within the developed area or watersheds draining to the developed area
and are therefore not included in this report.
A 60-foot by 40-foot office is proposed to be constructed along WCR 36 in addition to
two approximately 60-foot by152-foot shop buildings. The remaining area will be used
for equipment storage and vehicle parking. Gravel will be used for site roads and vehicle
parking areas. The site will be fenced for security purposes. No other improvements are
proposed at this time.
There are two types of soil: Vona loamy sand (0 to 3 percent slopes) and Valent sand (3
to 9 percent slopes). The majority of the soil is well drained, hydrologic soil group A (see
USDA-NRCS Custom Soil Resource Report in Appendix A)
There is a major open channel within or adjacent to the proposed property. The Neres
Canal borders the property to the west.

2.0 Drainage Basin and Sub-Basins
2.1 Major Basin Description
The proposed site is non-urbanizing and is located in rural Weld County. A Master
Drainage Plan for the site area is not currently available. The proposed site was
considered as one major drainage basin with one retention pond.
The site has a relatively flat topography with slopes ranging from approximately three to
nine percent predominately towards the east. Water historically flows east to the existing
wetlands located to the east of the site. A topographic map was downloaded from the
United States Geological Survey (USGS) website and is shown in Appendix A.
Historically; there have been no previous drainage issues with the property.
A Federal Emergency Management Administration (FEMA) map of the project area is
included in Appendix A. The property is located on panel 08123C1775E and is not
currently located within a 100-year floodplain.
Offsite flows from the north flow onto the developed area. This area is labeled OS-1 on
the Drainage Plan. The additional flow from OS-1 has been accounted for in the design of
the retention pond. Offsite flows from the west flow east to the property boundary and are
diverted to the north by an existing swale. Offsite flows from the south flow southeast
away from the site. Flows from the north half of County Road 36 are intercepted by the
adjacent roadside swale. Offsite flows from the east flow east away from the site.
2.2 Sub-Basin Description
The site was evaluated with the one major drainage basin. The major drainage basin has
one onsite sub-basins (Sub-Basin A) and one offsite sub-basin (Sub-Basin OS-I). Sub-
Basin A is the southern area of the major drainage basin and sheet flows to the proposed
retention basin. Stormwater runoff from Sub-Basin OS-1 sheet flows through Sub-Basin
A or directly to the retention pond.

3.0 Drainage Design Criteria
3.1 Development Criteria
The proposed site runoff was evaluated using the criteria set forth in the Urban Drainage
and Flood Control District(UDFCD) Criteria Manual Volumes 1, 2 and 3 and the Weld
County Engineering and Construction Criteria Guidelines (WCECG) manual.
3.2 Hydrological Criteria
From NOAA Atlas 14 Fort Lupton, CO precipitation station,the estimated rainfall from
the 100-year, 1-hour precipitation is 2.69 inches (see NOAA Atlas 14 Precipitation Data
in Appendix A.5). This value was used for runoff calculations.
Percentage of imperviousness was determined by using the recommended values from
UDFCD Table 6-3. The overall percentage of imperviousness for the proposed site was
determined to be approximately 7 percent (see Percentage of Imperviousness Calculation
in Appendix A.6).
Using the percentage of imperviousness, the design storms and the UDFCD Peak Runoff
Prediction by the Rational Method spreadsheet, the historic and proposed peak runoff
flowrates were estimated for the overall basin (see UDFCD Runoff Calculations in
Appendix A.7).
Table 1: Peak Runoff Flowrates
Peak Runoff 10 Year Peak 100 Year Peak
Flowrate(cfs) Flowrate(cfs)
Historic-Total 3.53 21.22
Proposed-Total 5.81 25.21
cfs=cubic feet per second
3.3 Hydraulic Criteria
For the retention pond, the Modified FAA Method on the UDFCD Detention Basin
Volume Estimating Workbook, version 2.34, was used. The discharge out of the pond
was set to 0 and the time was adjusted to 1,440 minutes (24 hours). The time of
concentration was calculated to 102 minutes from the UD-Rational version 1.02
spreadsheet. The 100-year, 24-hour volume was multiplied by 1.5 to get a design
retention volume of 9.92 acre-ft (see UDFCD Retention Volume calculations in
Appendix B.1). The stage storage curve is provided with the UDFCD Retention volume
Calculations in Appendix B.2.

100-Year/Spillway Crest 4814.2 9.92 10.02
Top of Pond 4815.2 1 - 13.18
The WQCV is included within the retention volume for the 100-year storm and the
required volume is 0.157 acre-feet (see Calculation in Appendix B.2).
The proposed retention pond is designed to have a large bottom area to allow for greater
infiltration. For the soil type at the pond area, the material is classified as silty sands and
sand-silt mixtures. The soil is classified as well-drained, and the hydraulic conductivity is
estimated to be 1.98 inches/hour to 6.00 inches/hour(see USDA-NRCS Custom Soil
Resource Report in Appendix A). For the preliminary pond bottom area, an infiltration
rate from 16 minutes per inch to 25 minutes per inch was used in the calculations (see
Infiltration Calculation in Appendix B.5). Therefore, stormwater runoff should infiltrate
through the pond bottom in less than 72 hours.
A spillway is proposed for the retention pond for Basin A and OS-1. The emergency
spillway was designed to release the 100-year storm event at a flow depth of six inches.
The 100-year storm event includes Basin A and OS-1. The spillway crest is at the invert
of the freeboard elevation (see MI-IFD Spillway in Appendix B.4). The spillway was
calculated to be approximately 23 feet long and will flow the 100-year storm 1 foot above
the crest elevation (see UDFCD Spillway in Appendix B.4).
Sub-Basin A and OS-1 sheet flows to the retention pond, no culverts or grass lined swales
are proposed for this area.
4.0 Drainage Facility Design
4.1 General Concept
A retention pond is proposed in the northeastern corner of the developed area. Runoff
should generally sheet flow towards the pond. A portion of Basin A will be directed to
the pond buy a swale of low area along the eastern edge of the developed area. The pond
is designed to detain 1.5 times the 100-year 24-hour storm event. The site should not
significantly alter the historic drainage pattern. A general drainage plan, drainage and
erosion control plan and drainage and erosion control details are shown in Appendix C.

Damariz S.Medrano Ramirez
4.2 Specific Details
Maintenance access is provided on the southeastern corner of the pond.
A. Scheduled Maintenance of Proposed Facilities
Scheduled maintenance will occur during daylight, weekday hours. Routine maintenance
will include but should not be limited to the following:
• Mowing of the bank slopes and area around the pond on a monthly basis during
the growing season and as needed during the cooler months.
• All areas shall be inspected monthly for debris which could inhibit the proper
flow of discharge. Any debris shall be removed immediately and disposed of or
placed in a location to prevent future maintenance and to not cause impact up or
downstream of the structure.
• Trash shall be removed from around the pond to prevent entering the pond.
Generally, the site should be kept free of loose trash which could be carried off
site by wind or rain.
B. Periodic or Non-Scheduled Maintenance of Proposed Facility
Periodic or non-scheduled maintenance includes routine inspection of the pond area and
discharge/outfall structures to identify needed repairs and non-routine maintenance.
These items may include but should not be limited to the following:
• Pond area should be inspected after significant storm events.
• Re-growth of trees on or around the pond bank. These should be cut and removed
from the pond area.
• Sediment from the site may accumulate in the pond bottom and reduce the pond
to below design volume requirements. The pond should be excavated if the pond
bottom elevation reaches a level that allows excessive aquatic growth or reduces
the pond efficiency such that the sediments are passing the discharge structure and
release off site.
• Stabilization or re-grading of side slopes may be required periodically or after
excessive rain events. Any disturbance of slopes should be reseeded or may
require installation of erosion control materials until seeding can reestablish
adequate grasses to prevent future erosion.
• Any other maintenance or repairs which would minimize other maintenance to the
pond.
If the pond is significantly impaired such that the pond is incapable of properly
functioning to meet the Weld County stormwater discharge requirements, the owner
should assess the corrective action needed and have the pond restored by properly trained
personnel.

Damariz S.Medrano Ramirez
5.0 Conclusions
5.1 Compliance with Weld County Code
The drainage design of the Damariz S. Medrano Ramirez USR is consistent with the
Weld County Engineering and Construction Guidelines and the Weld County Code. A
retention pond is proposed along the northeastern corner of the developed area.
5.2 Drainage Concept
Historical flow patterns and run-off amounts should be maintained in such a manner that
should reasonably preserve the natural character of the area and prevent property damage
of the type generally attributed to run-off rate and velocity increases, diversions,
concentration and/or unplanned ponding of storm run-off for the 100-year storm event.
The drainage design included in this report should be effective in controlling damage
from the design storm runoff by retaining 1.5 times the 100-year, 24-hour storm event
and infiltration within 72 hours. No irrigation companies or property owners should be
affected by the proposed development.

Preface
Soil surveys contain information that affects land use planning in survey areas.
They highlight soil limitations that affect various land uses and provide information
about the properties of the soils in the survey areas. Soil surveys are designed for
many different users, including farmers, ranchers, foresters, agronomists, urban
planners, community officials, engineers, developers, builders, and home buyers.
Also, conservationists, teachers, students, and specialists in recreation, waste
disposal, and pollution control can use the surveys to help them understand,
protect, or enhance the environment.
Various land use regulations of Federal, State, and local governments may impose
special restrictions on land use or land treatment. Soil surveys identify soil
properties that are used in making various land use or land treatment decisions.
The information is intended to help the land users identify and reduce the effects of
soil limitations on various land uses. The landowner or user is responsible for
identifying and complying with existing laws and regulations.
Although soil survey information can be used for general farm, local, and wider area
planning, onsite investigation is needed to supplement this information in some
cases. Examples include soil quality assessments (http://www.nres.usda.gov/wps/
portal/nrcs/main/soils/health/) and certain conservation and engineering
applications. For more detailed information, contact your local USDA Service Center
(https://offices.sc.egov.usda.gov/locator/app?agency=nres) or your NRCS State Soil
Scientist (http://www.nres.usda.gov/wps/portal/nres/detail/soils/contactus/?
cid=nrcs142p2_053951).
Great differences in soil properties can occur within short distances. Some soils are
seasonally wet or subject to flooding. Some are too unstable to be used as a
foundation for buildings or roads. Clayey or wet soils are poorly suited to use as
septic tank absorption fields. A high water table makes a soil poorly suited to
basements or underground installations.
The National Cooperative Soil Survey is a joint effort of the United States
Department of Agriculture and other Federal agencies, State agencies including the
Agricultural Experiment Stations, and local agencies. The Natural Resources
Conservation Service (NRCS) has leadership for the Federal part of the National
Cooperative Soil Survey.
Information about soils is updated periodically. Updated information is available
through the NRCS Web Soil Survey, the site for official soil survey information.

How Soil Surveys Are Made
Soil surveys are made to provide information about the soils and miscellaneous
areas in a specific area. They include a description of the soils and miscellaneous
areas and their location on the landscape and tables that show soil properties and
limitations affecting various uses. Soil scientists observed the steepness, length,
and shape of the slopes; the general pattern of drainage; the kinds of crops and
native plants; and the kinds of bedrock. They observed and described many soil
profiles. A soil profile is the sequence of natural layers, or horizons, in a soil. The
profile extends from the surface down into the unconsolidated material in which the
soil formed or from the surface down to bedrock. The unconsolidated material is
devoid of roots and other living organisms and has not been changed by other
biological activity.
Currently, soils are mapped according to the boundaries of major land resource
areas (MLRAs). MLRAs are geographically associated land resource units that
share common characteristics related to physiography, geology, climate, water
resources, soils, biological resources, and land uses (USDA, 2006). Soil survey
areas typically consist of parts of one or more MLRA.
The soils and miscellaneous areas in a survey area occur in an orderly pattern that
is related to the geology, landforms, relief, climate, and natural vegetation of the
area. Each kind of soil and miscellaneous area is associated with a particular kind
of landform or with a segment of the landform. By observing the soils and
miscellaneous areas in the survey area and relating their position to specific
segments of the landform, a soil scientist develops a concept, or model, of how they
were formed. Thus, during mapping, this model enables the soil scientist to predict
with a considerable degree of accuracy the kind of soil or miscellaneous area at a
specific location on the landscape.
Commonly, individual soils on the landscape merge into one another as their
characteristics gradually change. To construct an accurate soil map, however, soil
scientists must determine the boundaries between the soils. They can observe only
a limited number of soil profiles. Nevertheless, these observations, supplemented
by an understanding of the soil-vegetation-landscape relationship, are sufficient to
verify predictions of the kinds of soil in an area and to determine the boundaries.
Soil scientists recorded the characteristics of the soil profiles that they studied. They
noted soil color, texture, size and shape of soil aggregates, kind and amount of rock
fragments, distribution of plant roots, reaction, and other features that enable them
to identify soils. After describing the soils in the survey area and determining their
properties, the soil scientists assigned the soils to taxonomic classes (units).
Taxonomic classes are concepts. Each taxonomic class has a set of soil
characteristics with precisely defined limits. The classes are used as a basis for
comparison to classify soils systematically. Soil taxonomy, the system of taxonomic
classification used in the United States, is based mainly on the kind and character
of soil properties and the arrangement of horizons within the profile. After the soil
5
Custom Soil Resource Report
scientists classified and named the soils in the survey area, they compared the
individual soils with similar soils in the same taxonomic class in other areas so that
they could confirm data and assemble additional data based on experience and
research.
The objective of soil mapping is not to delineate pure map unit components; the
objective is to separate the landscape into Iandforms or Iandform segments that
have similar use and management requirements. Each map unit is defined by a
unique combination of soil components and/or miscellaneous areas in predictable
proportions. Some components may be highly contrasting to the other components
of the map unit. The presence of minor components in a map unit in no way
diminishes the usefulness or accuracy of the data. The delineation of such
Iandforms and landform segments on the map provides sufficient information for the
development of resource plans. If intensive use of small areas is planned, onsite
investigation is needed to define and locate the soils and miscellaneous areas.
Soil scientists make many field observations in the process of producing a soil map.
The frequency of observation is dependent upon several factors, including scale of
mapping, intensity of mapping, design of map units, complexity of the landscape,
and experience of the soil scientist. Observations are made to test and refine the
soil-landscape model and predictions and to verify the classification of the soils at
specific locations. Once the soil-landscape model is refined, a significantly smaller
number of measurements of individual soil properties are made and recorded.
These measurements may include field measurements, such as those for color,
depth to bedrock, and texture, and laboratory measurements, such as those for
content of sand, silt, clay, salt, and other components. Properties of each soil
typically vary from one point to another across the landscape.
Observations for map unit components are aggregated to develop ranges of
characteristics for the components. The aggregated values are presented. Direct
measurements do not exist for every property presented for every map unit
component. Values for some properties are estimated from combinations of other
properties.
While a soil survey is in progress, samples of some of the soils in the area generally
are collected for laboratory analyses and for engineering tests. Soil scientists
interpret the data from these analyses and tests as well as the field-observed
characteristics and the soil properties to determine the expected behavior of the
soils under different uses. Interpretations for all of the soils are field tested through
observation of the soils in different uses and under different levels of management.
Some interpretations are modified to fit local conditions, and some new
interpretations are developed to meet local needs. Data are assembled from other
sources, such as research information, production records, and field experience of
specialists. For example, data on crop yields under defined levels of management
are assembled from farm records and from field or plot experiments on the same
kinds of soil.
Predictions about soil behavior are based not only on soil properties but also on
such variables as climate and biological activity. Soil conditions are predictable over
long periods of time, but they are not predictable from year to year. For example,
soil scientists can predict with a fairly high degree of accuracy that a given soil will
have a high water table within certain depths in most years, but they cannot predict
that a high water table will always be at a specific level in the soil on a specific date.
After soil scientists located and identified the significant natural bodies of soil in the
survey area, they drew the boundaries of these bodies on aerial photographs and
6

identified each as a specific map unit. Aerial photographs show trees, buildings,
fields, roads, and rivers, all of which help in locating boundaries accurately.

Map Unit Descriptions
The map units delineated on the detailed soil maps in a soil survey represent the
soils or miscellaneous areas in the survey area. The map unit descriptions, along
with the maps, can be used to determine the composition and properties of a unit.
A map unit delineation on a soil map represents an area dominated by one or more
major kinds of soil or miscellaneous areas. A map unit is identified and named
according to the taxonomic classification of the dominant soils. Within a taxonomic
class there are precisely defined limits for the properties of the soils. On the
landscape, however, the soils are natural phenomena, and they have the
characteristic variability of all natural phenomena. Thus, the range of some
observed properties may extend beyond the limits defined for a taxonomic class.
Areas of soils of a single taxonomic class rarely, if ever, can be mapped without
including areas of other taxonomic classes. Consequently, every map unit is made
up of the soils or miscellaneous areas for which it is named and some minor
components that belong to taxonomic classes other than those of the major soils.
Most minor soils have properties similar to those of the dominant soil or soils in the
map unit, and thus they do not affect use and management. These are called
noncontrasting, or similar, components. They may or may not be mentioned in a
particular map unit description. Other minor components, however, have properties
and behavioral characteristics divergent enough to affect use or to require different
management. These are called contrasting, or dissimilar, components. They
generally are in small areas and could not be mapped separately because of the
scale used. Some small areas of strongly contrasting soils or miscellaneous areas
are identified by a special symbol on the maps. If included in the database for a
given area, the contrasting minor components are identified in the map unit
descriptions along with some characteristics of each. A few areas of minor
components may not have been observed, and consequently they are not
mentioned in the descriptions, especially where the pattern was so complex that it
was impractical to make enough observations to identify all the soils and
miscellaneous areas on the landscape.
11
Custom Soil Resource Report
The presence of minor components in a map unit in no way diminishes the
usefulness or accuracy of the data. The objective of mapping is not to delineate
pure taxonomic classes but rather to separate the landscape into landforms or
landform segments that have similar use and management requirements. The
delineation of such segments on the map provides sufficient information for the
development of resource plans. If intensive use of small areas is planned, however,
onsite investigation is needed to define and locate the soils and miscellaneous
areas.
An identifying symbol precedes the map unit name in the map unit descriptions.
Each description includes general facts about the unit and gives important soil
properties and qualities.
Soils that have profiles that are almost alike make up a soil series. Except for
differences in texture of the surface layer, all the soils of a series have major
horizons that are similar in composition, thickness, and arrangement.
Soils of one series can differ in texture of the surface layer, slope, stoniness,
salinity, degree of erosion, and other characteristics that affect their use. On the
basis of such differences, a soil series is divided into soil phases. Most of the areas
shown on the detailed soil maps are phases of soil series. The name of a soil phase
commonly indicates a feature that affects use or management. For example, Alpha
silt loam, 0 to 2 percent slopes, is a phase of the Alpha series.
Some map units are made up of two or more major soils or miscellaneous areas.
These map units are complexes, associations, or undifferentiated groups.
A complex consists of two or more soils or miscellaneous areas in such an intricate
pattern or in such small areas that they cannot be shown separately on the maps.
The pattern and proportion of the soils or miscellaneous areas are somewhat similar
in all areas.Alpha-Beta complex, 0 to 6 percent slopes, is an example.
An association is made up of two or more geographically associated soils or
miscellaneous areas that are shown as one unit on the maps. Because of present
or anticipated uses of the map units in the survey area, it was not considered
practical or necessary to map the soils or miscellaneous areas separately. The
pattern and relative proportion of the soils or miscellaneous areas are somewhat
similar. Alpha-Beta association, 0 to 2 percent slopes, is an example.
An undifferentiated group is made up of two or more soils or miscellaneous areas
that could be mapped individually but are mapped as one unit because similar
interpretations can be made for use and management. The pattern and proportion
of the soils or miscellaneous areas in a mapped area are not uniform. An area can
be made up of only one of the major soils or miscellaneous areas, or it can be made
up of all of them. Alpha and Beta soils, 0 to 2 percent slopes, is an example.
Some surveys include miscellaneous areas. Such areas have little or no soil
material and support little or no vegetation. Rock outcrop is an example.

Soil Information for All Uses
Soil Properties and Qualities
The Soil Properties and Qualities section includes various soil properties and
qualities displayed as thematic maps with a summary table for the soil map units in
the selected area of interest. A single value or rating for each map unit is generated
by aggregating the interpretive ratings of individual map unit components. This
aggregation process is defined for each property or quality.
Soil Qualities and Features
Soil qualities are behavior and performance attributes that are not directly
measured, but are inferred from observations of dynamic conditions and from soil
properties. Example soil qualities include natural drainage, and frost action. Soil
features are attributes that are not directly part of the soil. Example soil features
include slope and depth to restrictive layer. These features can greatly impact the
use and management of the soil.
Unified Soil Classification (Surface)
The Unified soil classification system classifies mineral and organic mineral soils for
engineering purposes on the basis of particle-size characteristics, liquid limit, and
plasticity index. It identifies three major soil divisions: (i) coarse-grained soils having
less than 50 percent, by weight, particles smaller than 0.074 mm in diameter; (ii)
fine-grained soils having 50 percent or more, by weight, particles smaller than 0.074
mm in diameter; and (iii) highly organic soils that demonstrate certain organic
characteristics. These divisions are further subdivided into a total of 15 basic soil
groups. The major soil divisions and basic soil groups are determined on the basis
of estimated or measured values for grain-size distribution and Atterberg limits.
ASTM D 2487 shows the criteria chart used for classifying soil in the Unified system
and the 15 basic soil groups of the system and the plasticity chart for the Unified
system.
The various groupings of this classification correlate in a general way with the
engineering behavior of soils. This correlation provides a useful first step in any field
or laboratory investigation for engineering purposes. It can serve to make some
general interpretations relating to probable performance of the soil for engineering
uses.

Traffic Narrative
Prepared for Damariz Medrano
Introduction
This Traffic Narrative is prepared for Damariz Medrano's Use by Special Review request for an
oil and gas support and services business in the Agricultural Zone District, more specifically a
laydown yard which will include commercial vehicle parking and temporary storage of
equipment and materials used principally in the oil and gas industry. The 86.82 acre property is
located in part of the Southwest Quarter of Section 6,Township 3 North, Range 64 West of the
6th P.M. being lot B of RE-2551. The property is located on Weld County Road(WCR) 36
approximately 700-feet east of WCR 49.
The purpose of this narrative is to document projected traffic generation relative to the existing
street system. An engineered turn-lane analysis which details potential off-site roadway warrants
and existing traffic counts was completed and is included as a separate attachment with this
memorandum.
Existing Conditions and Roadway Network
The property is accessed on the southern boundary of the parcel from the existing gravel drive
located on WCR 36 approximately 2,275-feet east of WCR 49. A separate commercial access is
proposed for the business and is expected to be approximately 1,800-feet east of WCR 49.
WCR 36 is a gravel two-lane east-west street and is classified as a local roadway. WCR 49 is a
paved north-south 4-lane county highway. All routes to and from the site will be on WCR 36.

Proposed Development
The site is an existing residential property. The majority of the property is undeveloped dryland.
The residence and existing shop and agricultural buildings will remain and are not associated
with the proposed development.
The on-site operation will primarily be the temporary storage of vehicles, equipment, and
materials used primarily in the oil and gas industry. The two proposed commercial shops will
Page 3 of 4
primarily be used for storage. Vehicles that may be parked on-site include semi-trucks and
employee passenger vehicles.
Trip Generation
Parking and equipment storage will occur 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. The expected hours
for outgoing and incoming vehicles and equipment will be Monday through Sunday, 4:00 A.M.
to 6:00 P.M. The highest traffic volumes will be generated during the morning hours of 4:00
A.M. to 6:00 A.M. with the Peak Hour being 4:00 A.M. to 5:00 A.M., and in the evening
between 4:00 P.M. to 6:00 P.M. with the Peak Hour being 4:00 P.M. to 5:00 P.M. The following
numbers are anticipated for the proposed operations:

Travel Routes
The most direct travel routes to/from the subject property are via WCR 36 west to WCR 49 or
east to WCR 53 north. It is assumed that 65%of traffic exiting the site will go west on WCR 36
and that 35%of traffic exiting the site will head east on WCR 36. At the intersection of WCR 36
and WCR 49, 60%of traffic generated from the site is expected to travel north on WCR 49, 40%
is expected to travel south on WCR 49. At the intersection of WCR 36 and WCR 53, 100 %of
traffic generated is expected to travel north on WCR 53. Figure 1 shows expected travel routes.

Conclusion
Site traffic volumes are not expected to differ much from current volumes. As the peak hour left
turning volume is less than 10 vehicles and the peak hour right turning volume is less than 25
vehicles, no roadway improvements are anticipated for the proposed uses.

RE: Turn Lane Analysis—Weld County Road 36 and Weld County Road 49
Kellar Engineering LLC (KE) is submitting this analysis in response to AGPROfessionals request to
provide a Turn Lane Analysis for the oil and gas support business located at 24421 County Road 36. Per
the client's request, the scope of this Turn Lane Analysis is to review the peak hour turning movement
traffic counts at the intersection of Weld County Road 49 (WCR 49) and Weld County Road 36 (WCR
36) to determine if an auxiliary turn lane is required. WCR 49 is an existing north/south roadway with
a posted speed of 65 mph at the WCR 49/WCR 36 intersection. WCR 49 is classified as a 4-Lane
Controlled-Access County Highway on the Weld County Functional Classification Map. WCR 36 is an
existing east/west roadway. WCR 36 is classified as local roadway on the Weld County Functional
Classification Map. A southbound left-turn deceleration lane currently exists at the WCR 49/WCR 36
intersection. The WCR 49/WCR 36 intersection has stop-control with one stop sign facing the
westbound approach of the intersection.
The auxiliary lane analysis for the intersection of WCR 49 and WCR 36 was conducted using COOT
State Highway Access Code (SHAC). Based upon the SHAC, a left-turn deceleration lane is required
at an intersection with a projected peak hour ingress turning volume greater than 10 vph. Additionally,
a right-turn deceleration lane is required at an intersection with a projected peak hour ingress turning
volume greater than 25 vph, and a right-turn acceleration lane is required at an intersection with a
projected peak egress turning volume greater than 50 vph. Based upon the SHAC. additional auxiliary
turn lanes are not required at the WCR 49 and WCR 36 intersection for the following scenarios: Recent
Traffic, 2026 Background Traffic, and 2046 Background Traffic. This analysis was based upon the
traffic counts conducted on January 9, 2025. See appendices for traffic counts and figures. The addition
of traffic contributing from future proposed development(s) may cause the study intersection's traffic to
increase above the turn lane thresholds.

Nuisance and Waste Management Plan
Prepared for Damariz S Medrano Ramirez
Introduction
The Damariz S Medrano Ramirez(Medrano) facility will be developed for an oil and gas support
and services business. The site will be a laydown yard and will include commercial vehicle
parking and temporary storage of equipment and materials used principally in the oil and gas
industry. The subject property is currently being used for residential purposes. The remaining
area is unirrigated and undeveloped land.
It is expected that the operation will have 35-38 full-time employees. The expected work hours
will vary.
Off-Site Employees:
There will be two shifts per day. Starting hours are expected to be staggered between
4:00 a.m. to 6:00 a.m. and ending between 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. Up to 25 off-site
employees are expected; they will pick up their work trucks and equipment, then leave
for off-site operations.
Yard and Office Employees:
There will be 2 shifts per day. Starting hours are expected to be staggered between 4:00
a.m. to 6:00 a.m. and ending between 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. Approximately 8 people will
work the am shift and 2-3 employees will work the pm shift on site.
Parking and equipment storage will occur 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. The on-site
operations will be split between 2 shifts.
Other uses in the surrounding area include oil and gas support services facilities, mineral
resource development facilities, Ag service establishment, and confined animal feeding
operations.
Medrano will use the methods described below to minimize potential nuisances and waste
produced as a result of the proposed uses.
Noise
The property owner or operator will attempt to minimize noise generated during operation and
maintain compliance with Weld County Noise Requirements. The facility will adhere to the
maximum permissible noise levels allowed in the Agricultural Zone District.
Light
No outdoor lighting is existing or proposed for the commercial operation. Should lighting be
installed in the future, the lights will be shielded so that light rays will not shine directly onto

adjacent properties where such would cause a nuisance or interfere with the use on the adjacent
properties. Neither the direct, nor reflected light from any light source will create a traffic hazard
to operators of motor vehicles on public or private streets. No colored light will be used which
may be confused with, or construed as, traffic control devices.
Waste Management
The property owner or operator will be responsible for controlling noxious weeds on the site.
Trash will be collected in a covered, confined trash dumpster and removed as needed by a trash
removal company.
There is no sanitary sewer service to, or within four hundred feet of,the subject property. There
is an existing septic system,permit no. SP-0200424,that provides sewage disposal on the
property. A new septic system is proposed for the office that will serve the on-site employees.
Three 500-gallon dielsel fuel tanks are proposed to be located on-site for business needs. It will
include both primary and secondary containment.
Dust Abatement
The operation is not expected to generate disproportionate amounts of fugitive dust. Lot surfaces
are primarily rangeland grass and improved gravel surfaces in roadways, parking, and operations
areas.
Parking is internal to the site. The subject property is accessed along the south of the parcel from
Weld County Road (WCR) 36 approximately 2,370 ft. east of WCR 49 that serves the residence.
A separate commercial access is proposed, approximately 380 ft. east of the easternmost ditch
road and 550 ft. west of the existing residential access.
Watering of surfaces will occur as necessary to suppress dust.
