If a question does not pertain to your use, please respond with "not applicable", with an explanation as to why the question is not applicable. 1. Explain, in detail, the proposed use of the property. The property is utilized for natural gas mainline compression and measurement. The addition of the Area Office is for the Area management, pipeline staff and specialized support staff. 2. Explain how this proposal is consistent with the intent of the Weld County Code, Chapter 22 of the Comprehensive Plan. This proposal is for an update of the existing facilities including the addition of an Area Office. The El Paso Corporation operates utilizing a 5 to 10 year plan to be prepared for the future needs of our customers. The land use for this facility continues to be 100% related to the transmission of natural gas. The facility site size has not changed and there is no plan in the foreseeable future that will require additional land acquisition. 3. Explain how this proposal is consistent with the intent of the Weld County Code, Chapter 23 (Zoning) and the zone district in which lt is located. No change in zoning as this proposal is for an update of the existing facilities including the addition of a new Area Office. 4. What type of uses surround the site (explain how the proposed use is consistent and compatible with surrounding land uses). The area has become a natural gas hub with Kinder Morgan, Southern Star, and Excel Energy all having pipelines and/or compression located around the CIG/ElPaso facility. The surrounding land is primarily cattle ranching. The Lazy D Grazing Association borders the facility on all sides. 5. Describe, in detail, the following: a. Number of people who report to this site. The current on site staff is 22 Full Time Employees with one additional employee scheduled to relocate to this area in 2009 for a total of 23. b. Number of employees proposed to be employed at this site Two additional employees were anticipated for 2009 however, due to the current state of the economy, a hiring freeze has been initiated and "0" new employees will be approved for 2009 and very likely this will carry over to 2010 and beyond.. c. Hours of operation. 24/7 operation of the facilities, however the new area office will just be manned 7:00A.M. to 4:00 P.M. Monday through Friday. d. Type and number of structures to be erected (built) on this site. 1 new 6000 sq. ft. office facility. e. Type and number of animals, if any, to be on this site. none f. Kind of vehicles (type, size, weight) that will access this site and how often. The existing facility is accessed routinely by semi trucks and delivery vans that can weigh up to 80,000 lbs. • • • Typical vehicle usage is work pickups. No GVWR in excess of 10,000 lb. g. Who will provide fire protection to the site. Primary fire protection is from the Nunn Volunteer Fire Department. h. Water source on the property (both domestic and irrigation) The site contains 2 water wells for domestic and plant use. I. Sewage disposal system on the property (existing and proposed). The site contains 4 separate leach fields that are tied to existing facilities. A new leach field has been installed for the new office facility. j. If storage or warehousing is proposed, what type of items will be stored? Existing warehouses are utilized for spare engine/compressor, measurement, and pipeline parts and supplies. 6. Explain the proposed landscaping for the site. The landscaping shall be separately submitted as a landscape plan map as part of the application submittal. No true landscaping is planned. Parking will be on both the South and East sides of the new building. Parking lot will be gravel. The intent is to black top them when the economy recovers. 7. Explain any proposed reclamation procedures when termination of the Use by Special Review activity occurs. None currently proposed, but state and federal guidelines will be followed. 8. Explain how the storm water drainage will be handled on the site. Storm water from the site of the new office currently can run off to the west or southwest into a natural grass covered area directly west of the building site. 9. Explain how long it will take to construct this site and when construction and landscaping is scheduled to begin. The site is currently under construction and should be complete by Mid March 2009. 10. Explain where storage and/or stockpile of wastes will occur on this site. Current construction building materials have been stockpiled on pallets on the ground near the new facility and all construction waste has been placed in roll off containers supplied by the contractor. • Recommendation #1 DUST ABATEMENT PLAN • • • • • COLORADO INTERSTATE GAS COMPANY CHEYENNE AREA OFFICE DUST CONTROL PLAN Best practical methods will be used to prevent soil and particulate matter from becoming airborne.

It's Environmentally Friendlier If your system ever leaks, the escaping refrigerant won't contribute to ozone depletion! You Avoid the Risk that R-22 could Become Expensive or Difficult to Get When your System Needs to be Repaired in a Few Years The old refrigerant R-22 will be phased out along with other ozone depleting chemicals, and both supply and demand of this chemical will be significantly affected by current and upcoming regulations. By selecting an air conditioner or heat pump that uses R -410A, you will avoid the risk associated with purchasing a product that is destined to become obsolete. R -410A Systems Can be More Reliable than R-22 Systems R -410A air conditioners and heat pumps are today's "state of the art" systems, and utilize the most current technology available for efficient and reliable operation. The heart of every air conditioner or heat pump is the compressor, and newer systems are specifically designed to use R -410A refrigerant. They often incorporate smaller, heavier -duty "scroll -type" compressors that are quieter and operate with less damaging vibration than older compressors that operate on R-22. Since R -410A can absorb and release heat more efficiently than R-22 ever could, compressors with R -410A run cooler than R-22 systems, reducing the risk of burnout due to overheating. It Uses a Synthetic Lubricant that Helps to Keep the System Operating Smoothly All air-conditioning systems use an oil that circulates through the inside of the system to keep all of the parts well lubricated, just like the engine of your car. R-22 air conditioners use an oil known as "mineral oil" that has been used for decades. R -410A air conditioners use newer synthetic lubricants that are usually more soluble with the R -410A than the old mineral oils are with the older R-22 refrigerants. This means the synthetic lubricants and R -410A can mix and circulate more efficiently to keep the compressor and other moving parts lubricated, reducing wear and extending their life. Also, just as many new cars use synthetic oils because they are less likely to break down under high stress and heat, the new synthetic oils used in R -410A air conditioners are less likely to break down under extreme conditions. littp://www51.honeywell.com/sm/410a/about-us/recrigerant .110111 9/14/2009 - -rI J/- - r ruircy YYCI1 rtr -Lu Acingerant rage I or I • • • Honeywell HOME ABOUT R -410A CERI IF ICAI ION MYTHS In ORY HI IASCOIIl HOW AC WORKS I EARN MORE A Better Refrigerant AZ -200 (R -410A) Story Honeywell AZ -20 (R -410A) Refrigerant The AZ -20® (R -410A) Story Award for Stratospheric Ozone Protection by the EPA. Over time, additional manufacturers have developed their own products using R -410A. This refrigerant is composed of two chemicals which are blended in the right proportion and act nearly as one within an air conditioning system. This is important because when a technician charges your air conditioning system with refrigerant, he or she needs to be sure that the first drop that goes in is the same as the last drop. Many other possible R-22 replacement refrigerants were invented, but had to be ruled out for this very reason. R -410A offers some wonderful advantages, but it required the manufacturers of air conditioners to redesign their products to take advantage of the properties of the refrigerant. The reason why a refrigerant works is because it captures the heat from one place, and then releases the heat somewhere else. R -410A captures heat and then releases it better than R-22 did, so manufacturers have found that they need less refrigerant in an R -410A air conditioner than they needed in an R-22 air conditioner. Because there's less refrigerant, they need less copper tubing, and often can use a smaller compressor. The bad news was that R -410A couldn't be used in air conditioners that were made to use R-22, but the advantages for new air conditioners were too great to pass up. Honeywell works closely with manufacturers today to continue to optimize air conditioning systems to make them less expensive, more efficient, and more reliable. The AZ -20(A) (R -410A) Story In response to the need to replace ozone -depleting chemicals, Honeywell embarked on a research program to develop environmentally friendlier refrigerants in the late 1980's. In 1991 Honeywell (then known as AlliedSignal) announced its solution, a remarkably efficient refrigerant which we called AZ -20® refrigerant, and which was later assigned the generic name R-41 OA. After years of effort, and a cooperative development program with the air conditioner manufacturer Carrier Corporation, the first air conditioners using R -410A were launched in 1995 under the name PURON®. In 1996, both companies were presented the At Honeywell, we're proud of our employees who worked so hard to find a solution to this problem. Believe it or not, your local supermarket or convenience store likely also uses the ozone depleting refrigerant R-22 to keep your food cold on their shelves. Of course, R-22 can only affect the environment if the refrigerant leaks out of the refrigeration system and most supermarkets work very hard to make sure that doesn't happen. Even so, Honeywell also introduced a non -ozone depleting refrigerant called AZ -50® refrigerant that many supermarkets are now using instead of R-22. Because AZ -50® refrigerant is as much as 6% more energy efficient that R-22, this product not only helps to protect the environment, but it saves supermarkets on their electricity costs. Now that's a winning solution for everybody! http://www5I .honeywel I.com/sm/410a/about-us/az-story.html 9/14/2009 • RECOMMENDATION #3 SEPTIC SYSTEM PERMITS • • SEPTIC SYSTEM PERMITS Permit # 19780168 Permit # 19820024 • Permit # SP0400219 Permit # 5P0800235 Locations have all been identified on Amended —R485 Plot Plan • • RECOMMENDATION #4 WASTE HANDLING PLAN • • • Waste Handling for new Area Office Building. • This new facility will not generate any waste other than normal office trash and chemicals used and stored in the facility will be limited to normal household types of cleaning and sanitizing products.
