Please find the attached,complete application packets. The application is compliance with Chapters 22 and 23 of the Weld County Code. The application is an amended Use by Special Review USR-1614. The plat for the original USR was recorded in February of 2008. The amendment is to include oil polishing facilities for Anadarko and Noble, which is an essential part of the overall facility. Anadarko and Noble will each operate their facilities on respective ten acre parcels(part of the enclosed Recorded Exemption application). The USR questionnaire and plat map further define the details for the new uses. The original truck unloading facility is a part of the overall project for SemCrude, • which delivers,through a 525 mile pipeline,oil produced in Northern Colorado, to Cushing, Oklahoma, for storage and further transport to oil refineries around the United States. The production of crude oil is important to the overall economy of Weld County, the State of Colorado and the United States. As demand has increased, the supply has not been able to keep up due to the need for additional pipelines and refineries. This facility will help to alleviate this situation. This amendment has a very critical construction path, as well. Construction of the SemCrude facility should be complete by Fall, 2008 and the oil polishing facilities need to be constructed and ready to operate by late Fall of 2008. Please let me know if you have any questions or require any additional information in order to move these applications forward. Please contact me at my office at 303-772-5282 or my e-mail address: julie.cozadAtetratech.com. Thank you for your consideration of this project.

A traffic study was completed in April 2007 and submitted to Weld County on behalf of SemCrude. Since then, the 80-acre site is also proposed to accommodate facilities for Anadarko Petroleum and Noble Energy. As a result, a supplemental • letter is required. April 2007 Traffic Impact Study: According to this study, the facility would operate 14 hours per day and generate 16 trucks per hour. As a result, truck activity would be 224 trucks per day. In addition, 3 employees would be working on site, generating 12 additional trips per day. The trip distribution was assumed to be 30%to/from the north (WCR 49 then right turn to WCR 30), 30% to/from the south(WCR 49 then left turn to WCR 30), 0%to/from the east, and 40%to/from the west(WCR 30). The number of trips generated by the site will not increase over time. This information received from SemCrude has not changed. All traffic movements will operate at a level of service 'A' or `B'. Supplemental Traffic Information: After consulting with Anadarko Petroleum and Noble Energy,additional traffic for the site would be as follows: one (1)water truck per week for Noble Energy operations;two (2)pickup trucks per day for Anadarko Petroleum operations;and two (2) pickup trucks per day for Noble Energy operations. This additional traffic would not adversely impact the area roadway system. Truck Stacking Solution: At the pre-application meeting for this project, Don Carroll noted that for the number of trucks accessing the facility,truck stacking from both the east and west directions could be a concern on WCR 30. Sixteen(16)truck bays can most certainly accommodate the number of trucks which would access the site, with each truck dwelling for approximately one-half hour. Trucks could also stack behind other trucks in each of the 16 truck bays, if necessary, which would allow for 16 additional trucks. As an additional option, trucks • x_.� .. • S TETRA TECH Mr. Kim Ogle Page 2 July 15, 2008 could use the existing site road by proceeding north past the truck bays upon entering the site, then east past the existing tank, then south toward WCR 30 on the existing site road. There will be no need for trucks to stack on WCR 30. Long-Term Road Agreement: Per the Weld County Long-Term Road Maintenance and Improvements Agreement, dated September 18, 2007, ingress/egress improvements are required to the site from WCR 30 by allowing for adequate turning radii. Also acceleration and deceleration lanes with a left turn lane are required at the intersection of WCR 49 and WCR 30 meeting current AASHTO Design Standards. Even though the April 2007 traffic study did not justify the need for auxiliary lanes,this was later discussed with Weld County Traffic Engineer Scot Lewis on June 28, 2007, who asked Tetra Tech to document further the results of the analysis. This was explained in an e-mail to Scot, with a copy to Don Carroll. After following up with Scot on July 17, it was decided that Tetra Tech would prepare a design for auxiliary lanes and a left turn lane on WCR 49, even though it was contrary to the conclusion of the traffic report. The basis for this decision was due to WCR 49 being identified as a Weld County Strategic Roadway, as a result of its local and regional connectivity.

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. This proposed use is an amendment to previously approved USR-1614, which consists of a crude oil truck unloading facility(TUF) and a crude oil tank farm owned by SemCrude L.P. Two identical oil polishing facilities (OPFs) for Noble Energy, Inc. (Noble) and Anadarko Petroleum Corporation (Anadarko) are proposed to be constructed on the site, each on a 10-acre tract located in the southern portion of the property. Each OPF site will include six 2,000 barrel oil staging tanks, two gas-fired indirect oil heaters, one pump skid for pumping oil to the heaters, one pump skid for pumping oil to the SemCrude TUF,one(or two smaller)incinerator(s)for destruction of vapors from the oil,two meter skids for monitoring the oil flow into and out of the facility, a bermed area around the oil tanks and skids with leak detection, two water tanks for staging of the water removed from the oil that will be transported to an offsite water disposal facility, one 40'x 30'Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) building that will house the Motor Control Center, the control panel for the process, the plant air compressor, and a 120'x 30' truck thawing facility that will allow a truck with a frozen discharge valve to be brought into the building and sprayed with hot water to thaw the valve so the oil can be delivered. Oil that is measured to be greater than 0.3% water will be diverted to the appropriate OPF and placed into one of the six tanks. When the tank is full or the operator deems it operationally efficient, the oil will be pumped to a heater and returned to another tank to separate the water from the oil. The oil is expected to be • heated to approximately 80 F;however the facility is designed to allow heating to 100 F if necessary. The oil settles in the treated oil tank until the level sensor shows the emulsion zone (mix of oil and water) has stabilized and water has settled to the bottom. The operator can then drain off the water to the water tanks. Once the water has been drained off, the oil can be sent to the SemCrude TUF via the second pump skid. The operator will control this from the SCADA building. There are no plans for permanent restroom facilities or water service in the SCADA building. The truck thawing facility is expected to only be used on a small percentage of trucks when weather is below 20-25 F where water has settled into the discharge valve, and the drive time is long enough to allow the water to freeze. Typically this only occurs in January and February. The thawing facility will have a water heating and spraying system (likely a Hotsy) that will draw from a tank that is located outside the building. The water will be collected in a sump, filtered, and returned to the tank for re-use. 2. Explain how this proposal is consistent with the intent of the Weld County Code,Chapter 22(Comprehensive Plan). Section 22-5-90—Oil and gas development in the County is an integral part of the county economy,and has a substantial direct and indirect impact on current and future land use. Oil and gas development is cyclical, but the economics of drilling has caused extensive drilling activities in the County. Although this request is not for oil drilling,it is an essential part of oil development in the County as well as in Colorado. The oil polishing facilities are a critical component of the TUF that will allow processing of off-spec (unacceptable water content) crude oil from the Wattenberg Field. Section 22-5-100.A 4.OG.Policy 1.4— The County will seek the imposition of protective measures through available state, county and federal regulations to ensure that the mineral operator conducts operations in a • manner which will minimize current and future environmental impacts. Section 22-2-60.G A.Goal.7—Protect agricultural uses from those uses which hinder the operations of the agricultural enterprises. • The SemCrude facility and the Noble and Anadarko OPFs will not hinder the operation of agricultural uses. The site was bought from the Trust that will continue to own and farm the adjacent property to the west and north. SemCrude L.P.,Anadarko,and Noble will adhere to any and all applicable county,state, and federal regulations. This proposal is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan as described in the goals and policies outlined above. 3. Explain how this proposal is consistent with the intent of the Weld County Code,Chapter23(Zoning)and the zone district in which it is located. The proposed use is consistent with the intent of the A(Agricultural)Zone District. Section 23-3-40.A.1 of the Weld County Code states: "Mineral resource development facilities,including oil and gas storage facilities." Section 23-1-90 defines an oil and gas storage facility as: "One(1)or more tanks which receive and store oil or gas from sources other than direct from the oil and gas welt" There will be no processing on this property, and the oil will go into a crude oil pipeline which transfers the oil to Cushing, Oklahoma. The proposed facility adheres to the sections noted above which are consistent with the intent of the agricultural zone district. 4. What types of uses surround the site? Explain how the proposed use is consistent and compatible with surrounding land uses. East— Pasture-no structures West— Pasture-no structures North— Pasture-no structures South— Crops -no structures • The proposed use is consistent and compatible with surrounding land uses, which are comprised primarily of pasture land and irrigated farmland. 5. Describe, in detail,the following: a. How many people will use this site? There will be one employee at each OPF. During cold winter months,depending upon the outdoor temperature and drive time, oil tanker truck drivers will be using the washout facility at the OPF to thaw frozen discharge valves, with an estimated 3-5 trucks per day. b. How many employees are proposed to be employed at this site? Two;each OPF will have one employee on site. c. What are the hours of operation? The OPFs will operate seven days a week, 24 hours a day. d. What type and how many structures will be erected (built)on this site? Each OPF will have a 40'x 30'SCADA building and a 30'x 120'truck washout building, six 2,000- barrel oil tanks,and two 210-barrel water tanks. There will also be associated heaters,pumps,and emission control devices (incinerator) at each facility. e. What type and how many animals, if any, will be on this site? • No animals will be located on the property. f. What kind (type, size, weight)of vehicles will access this site and how often? • Two employee vehicles will access the site during daylight hours. Oil tanker trucks will access the site intermittently during winter months (primarily January and February) for thawing, with an estimate of 3-5 trucks/day. Water trucks will haul away water as needed(estimated 1 truck per week). g. Who will provide fire protection to the site? LaSalle Fire Protection District. h. What is the water source on the property? (Both domestic and irrigation). The OPFs will obtain water from a commercial well on the SemCrude TUF property(Lot C). The well has been applied for through the State Division of Water Resources. Noble and Anadarko will have agreements with SemCrude to use this water source. What is the sewage disposal system on the property? (Existing and proposed). The OPFs will not have any septic systems;their employees will use the individual sewage disposal system that will be constructed at the adjacent SemCrude TUF office building. j. If storage or warehousing is proposed, what type of items will be stored? Crude oil and water will be stored on site. 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. • A minimal amount of landscaping is proposed, as the operation will be located off the main roads(WCR 49 and WCR30), and there will be semi-trucks entering and leaving the facility. In addition, the soil is very sandy, according to the soil survey, which is not suitable for most vegetation. There are currently no residential structures adjacent to the 80-acre site, and the area is very rural in nature. In addition, landscaping would increase the potential fire hazard on site,so from a safety perspective,it is better not to have more landscaping. 7. Explain any proposed reclamation procedures when termination of the Use by Special Review activity occurs. Should the facility be permanently discontinued,it would be marketed under applicable county planning and zoning regulations to its highest and best use. All equipment and structures would be removed from the site and the land would be returned to as close to existing conditions through re-vegetation of disturbed areas. 8. Explain how the storm water drainage will be handled on the site. See enclosed Final Drainage Report. 9. Explain how long it will take to construct this site and when construction and landscaping is scheduled to begin. Construction of the facility is anticipated immediately upon approval of this application, possibly earlier if early release of building permits is allowed by Weld County. It will take approximately six months to complete construction including grading,construction of the internal roads and drainage facilities. A minimal amount of landscaping is proposed, and it will be completed upon construction of the polishing facilities. • 10. Explain where storage and/or stockpile of wastes will occur on this site. See attached Waste Handling Plan. 11. Additional information. • This application proposes an amendment to USR-1614 to modify the existing crude oil truck unloading and storage facility(tank farm)that is being constructed by SemCrude,L.P.by adding two identical oil polishing facilities for Noble Energy,Inc.and Anadarko Petroleum Corporation,each located on a 10-acre tract in the southwestern portion of the 80-acre property. An application for a Recorded Exemption was submitted concurrently with the USR Amendment. This addition of the oil polishing facilities will actually reduce the number of driven miles by both Noble and Anadarko contracted oil transports. The central location of the OPFs and TUF reduces the truck mileage because oil is not being hauled from various DJ (aka Wattenberg) Basin tank batteries to the Suncor refinery in Commerce City, Colorado. The addition of the OPF/TUF system will also assist in limiting, if not eliminating,Anadarko and Noble wells being "shut in"due to truck dispatching problems. This is the major reason for initiating the project. Ultimately, crude oil polished(if necessary)and stored at SemCrude's Platteville, Colorado facility will travel to Cushing, Oklahoma via a 12-inch, 525-mile long pipeline currently under construction. Anadarko and Noble will be anchor shippers on the pipeline. This pipeline will provide DJ Basin producers direct access into the Cushing market and to refiners in the Mid-Continent area. It will help producers have uninterrupted flow capacities and receive maximum value for their crude oil. The oil is an important export for Colorado and lessens the Country's dependence on foreign supplies. According to the study, Oil and Gas Economic Impact Analysis, Report 2007-1 conducted by the Colorado Energy Research Institute, in conjunction with the Colorado School of Mines, in 2007, "The IMPLAN model results indicate that there were approximately $21.0 billion in total economic contribution for drilling, completion,recompletion, and extraction activities in 2005,90 percent(%)of which is attributed to extraction activities (See Exhibit ES 1-1). Including private mineral royalty and lease payments and extraction tax • impacts,total economic contribution for all oil and gas related activities within Colorado is$22.9 billion. This does not include large development expenditures such as new regional pipeline development or building new facilitates, nor does it include gathering and in-basin transportation investments and expenses associated with the extraction industry. Oil and gas activity within the State employs approximately 71,000 people". Exhibit ES 1-1i Total Economic Contribution for Oil and Gas Activities in Colorado(2005$), Type of Impact fl...

If additional right-of-way is required adjacent to WCR 49 on the SemCrude property or adjacent properties, complete the typical cross section dedication to the county shall be required. There is an existing 80-foot of right-of-way for WCR 49 and an existing 60-foot of right-of-way for WCR 30. The status of WCR 49 is identified as an arterial roadway, which will require 140 feet at full build out. WCR 30 is classified at a collector status roadway, which will require an 80-foot right-of- way at full build out. The plat does reflect existing and future right-of-way. Work with our Right-of- Way Division on appropriate dedication verbage to be placed on the plat or other documentation required. Summary: The applicant needs to add a couple of items to the plat drawing and stamp the drainage report. Public Works feels that the applicant can submit the application with very little follow-up.

The applicant is requesting an early release of building permits for the site. The Amended Use By Special Review applicant (AMUSR-1614) has not been submitted at this time but staff is in receipt of the 7 Day Completeness Review packets.

Anadarko and Noble are also requesting to set the tanks onto the foundations once the foundations have cured. Enclosed please find building permits applications for the above referenced items. An amended Use by Special Review is being submitted to Weld County for a • completeness review on July 15, 2008. We are confident that the application will be complete and are targeting an official submittal for July 31n or sooner, depending on the turn around time from the County. The amendment is for two oil polishing facilities, one for Anadarko and one for Noble and is an essential part of the approved SemCrude facility. We believe that this amendment process should go through the Weld County process in a timely and efficient manner since the original USR was just recorded in February of 2008 and all issues have been addressed. The amendment is a very minor change to the original application and we would not anticipate many, if any new issues with these additional facilities. This request is highly critical, due to SemCrude's construction schedule to get their facility up and running by September of this year. Both Anadarko and Noble understand that the work associated with the release of the building permits would be at their own risk until a formal approval by the Board of County Commissioners. We feel very confident that this application will be approved, since it will meet the Weld County Comprehensive Plan and Code and is a part of an essential part of an existing, approved facility. As some background for the project, we scheduled and attended a work session with the Board of County Commissioners and an initial meeting with you and Kim Ogle on June 2, 2008. At that time, we discussed with you the possibility of an early release of building permits and it was indicated that we could request an early release.

Crude oil is a"fossil fuel," which means that it formed from organic remains over a period of millions of years.Crude oil can be refined into various forms of energy such as gasoline, diesel fuel and heating oil. It also is a key component in a broad variety of products. For example, crude oil is an important ingredient in plastics, medicines, crayons and tires.About 90 percent of the world's energy consumption comes from fossil fuels. In the United States, approximately 40 percent of all energy used comes from various petroleum products that start out as crude oil. Crude oil's characteristics vary from"light"-which is a straw-colored liquid-to"heavy"or tar-black solid. Crude oil also is called"sweet" or"sour'depending on the amount of sulfur it contains. Crude oil is an abundant commodity. It is estimated that there are about 650 billion barrels of produced oil, a trillion barrels of proven but yet to be produced oil and 10 trillion barrels of oil awaiting development. Crude oil is processed at refineries and transformed into useable petroleum products.The cost of transporting and moving crude oil to refineries, plus processing fees, greatly affects the final cost of petroleum products. Motor gasoline constitutes about half of the total volume of products produced • from crude oil. SemGroup's Involvement SemCrude and SemCanada Crude provide diverse services for the crude oil industry in the United States and Canada, respectively. Services include transportation, gathering, storage and marketing. • • PRESS RELEASE-SemGroup announces New Pipeline to Link Oklahoma and Colorado February 9, 2007 Tulsa, Okla.—SemGroup, L.P, announced today that Front Range Pipeline, L.L.C.will build a crude oil pipeline extending from Colorado's DJ Basin, an area well known for its oil and natural gas reserves,to Cushing, Oklahoma. The pipeline is expected to be operational by January 2009. "Front Range will build a 12inch pipeline that is approximately 550 miles in length,"said Kevin Foxx, SemGroup executive vice president and chief operating officer. "The Front Range Pipeline will originate near Platteville, Colorado, and terminate at SemCrude's Cushing terminal." SemCrude Pipeline, L.L.C., a wholly owned subsidiary of SemCrude, L.P.which is SemGroup's crude oil business segment, is the majority owner of Front Range Pipeline. Front Range Pipeline will build and operate the system, while Kerr McGee Oil &Gas Onshore, L.P. (a subsidiary of Anadarko Petroleum Corporation(NYSE:APC))and Noble Energy, Inc. (NYSE: NBL)will be anchor shippers on the pipeline. Foxx said, "Front Range will provide DJ Basin producers direct access into the Cushing market and to refiners in the MidContinent area. It will help producers have uninterrupted flow capacities and receive maximum value for their crude oil." SemCrude owns more than 4.3 million barrels of crude oil storage in Cushing and has additional tanks under construction there. Cushing is the site of the largest crude oil trading hub in the United States and is the designated delivery point for New York Mercantile Exchange crude oil futures contracts.

A 10 mph speed limit sign will be located at the entrance to the facility. An APEN permit has been approved through CDPHE. (Copy Attached) Development standard 6 of the existing USR states that waste materials shall be handled, stored, and disposed of in a manner that controls fugitive dust, fugitive particulate emissions, blowing debris, and other nuisance conditions. Development standard 8 of the existing USR stipulates that fugitive dust and particulate emissions will be controlled on the site. All development standards will be adhered to. • • • Waste Handling Plan There will be no waste generated from this site other than typical waste generated by truck drivers and employees such as bottles, paper wrappers, etc. No chemicals will be stored on the site. A dumpster will be located on the facility and will be serviced by a local waste management company such as BFI or Waste Management. Development standard 3 of the existing USR states that all liquid and solid wastes shall be stored and removed for final disposal in a manner that protects against surface and groundwater contamination. Development standard 4 of the existing USR states that no permanent disposal of wastes shall be permitted at this site. Development standard 6 of the existing USR states that waste materials shall be handled, stored, and disposed of in a manner that controls fugitive dust, fugitive particulate emissions, blowing debris, and other nuisance conditions. Development standard 7 of the existing USR requires the applicant to operate in accordance with the approved Waste Handling Plan. • Development standard 13 of the USR states that all potentially hazardous chemicals must be stored and handled in a safe manner in accordance with product labeling, and in a manner that minimizes the release of hazardous air pollutants and volatile organic compounds. All development standards will be adhered to. • in TETRA TECH July 15,2008 Mr. Kim Ogle, Planning Manager Weld County 918 10th Street Greeley,CO 80631 RE: Traffic Study Supplemental Letter SemCrude L.P.,Anadarko Petroleum and Noble Energy Amended Use By Special Review—1614 Northeast corner of intersection of WCR 49 and WCR 30 Weld County,Colorado Dear Kim: Tetra Tech has completed supplemental traffic engineering services for the proposed Semcrude Crude Oil Unloading and Oil Polishing Facility. A traffic study was completed in April 2007 and submitted to Weld County on behalf of SemCrude. Since then,the 80-acre site is also proposed to accommodate facilities for Anadarko Petroleum and Noble Energy. As a result,a supplemental letter is required. • April 2007 Traffic Impact Study: According to this study, the facility would operate 14 hours per day and generate 16 trucks per hour. As a result,truck activity would be 224 trucks per day. In addition, 3 employees would be working on site,generating 12 additional trips per day. The trip distribution was assumed to be 30%to/from the north (WCR 49 then right turn to WCR 30), 30% to/from the south(WCR 49 then left turn to WCR 30), 0%to/from the east, and 40%to/from the west(WCR 30). The number of trips generated by the site will not increase over time. This information received from SemCrude has not changed. All traffic movements will operate at a level of service 'A' or `B'. Supplemental Traffic Information: After consulting with Anadarko Petroleum and Noble Energy,additional traffic for the site would be as follows: one (1)water truck per week for Noble Energy operations:two (2) pickup trucks per day for Anadarko Petroleum operations;and two (2) pickup trucks per day for Noble Energy operations. This additional traffic would not adversely impact the area roadway system. Truck Stacking Solution: At the pre-application meeting for this project, Don Carroll noted that for the number of trucks accessing the facility, truck stacking from both the east and west directions could be a concern on WCR 30. Sixteen.(16)truck bays can most certainly accommodate the number of trucks which would access the site, with each truck dwelling for approximately one-half hour. Trucks could also stack behind other trucks in each of the 16 truck bays, if necessary, which would allow for 16 additional trucks. As an additional option, trucks • 1900 S.Sunset Street,Suite 1-F Longmont,CO 80501 Tel:303.772.5282 Fax:303/72.7039 www.tetratech.corn TETRA TECH Mr.Kim Ogle Page 2 July 15,2008 could use the existing site road by proceeding north past the truck bays upon entering the site,then east past the existing tank,then south toward WCR 30 on the existing site road. There will be no need for trucks to stack on WCR 30. Long-Term Road Agreement: Per the Weld County Long-Term Road.Maintenance and Improvements Agreement,dated September 18,2007,ingress/egress improvements are required to the site from WCR 30 by allowing for adequate turning radii. Also acceleration and deceleration lanes with a left turn lane are required at the intersection of WCR 49 and WCR 30 meeting current AASI-ITO°Design Standards. Even though the April 2007 traffic study did not justify the need for auxiliary lanes,this was later discussed with Weld County Traffic Engineer Scot Lewis on June 28, 2007,whoasked Tetra Tech to document further the results of the analysis. This was explained in an:e-mail to Scot,with a copy to Don Carroll. After following up with Scot on July 17,it was decided that Tetra Tech would prepare a design for auxiliary lanes and a left turn lane on WCR 49, even though it was contrary,to the conclusion of the traffic report. The basis for this decision was due to WCR 49 being identified as a Weld County Strategic Roadway,as a result of its local and regional.:connectivity.

The development will be an unloading and storage facility. A site location map is presented in Figure 1. Major transportation facilities in the vicinity of the site are described below: • WCR 49 is a two-lane,north-south arterial with continuity from WCR 4 on the south to US- 34. It is classified as a Strategic Roadway according to the Weld County Strategic Roadways map (December 2004). The posted speed limit is 65 mph in the vicinity of the site. At its intersection with WCR 30, there are 10-foot shoulders and no acceleration/deceleration lanes. • WCR 30 is a two-lane, east-west paved road with continuity from WCR 43 on the west to • WCR 49 on the east. Although the WCR 30 segment is only three miles long, it is part of a continuously paved mute to US-85 (Platteville) utilizing a one mile, north-south stretch of WCR 43, and then continues west on WCR 32 to Platteville. Its intersection with WCR 49 is currently two-way stop controlled, and the proposed development will have direct access to WCR 30 via two one-way driveways. The following procedures were used to analyze the traffic impacts associated with the proposed development,consistent with the requirements of Weld County: 1. Turning movement counts for the AM peak period (7:00 AM to 9:00 PM) and the PM peak period (4:00 PM to 6:00 PM) were collected in April 2007 for the intersection of WCR 49 I and WCR 30. I 2. An existing level of service analysis ysis was performed for the intersection of WCR 49 and WCR 30 using the procedures outlined in the most recent edition (2000 edition) of the Highway Capacity Manual. • 1 - April,2007 R:\5291.OOLIDonwcata$Tnafc Repwl\Tn6E Study Reportecc. 3. A six percent annual growth rate for the year 2012 was applied for both WCR 49 and WCR 30, which takes into account the normal yearly increase in traffic. Weld County traffic counts on WCR 49 indicated a growth rate in the range of 10% annually between 2002 and 2004. There is no proposed development that would contribute to background traffic in the project area for the near term that Weld County is aware of. } 4. Trip distribution models were developed from input obtained from SemCrude. 5. Input regarding trip generation was obtained from SemCrude. 6. Site-generated trips were assigned to adjacent roadway network in accordance with the trip distribution information provided. 7. The existing, background and site-generated traffic volumes were combined to develop a Ill total future year 2012 traffic volume scenario. According to the Weld County Traffic Impact Study Requirements (March 2004), the short term study year should be five years from current conditions. The long term study year horizon of 20 years in the future was not calculated because traffic generated by the site is not expected to grow beyond the initial traffic volume. The site generated traffic may actually decline over the 20 year horizon due to construction of pipelines. 8. Level of service analyses for background and total future year 2012 traffic scenario was completed for the intersection of WCR 49 and WCR 30. The proposed site driveway was analyzed for future conditions. 9. The results of the level of service analyses were evaluated to identify improvements, if necessary,that would mitigate site traffic impacts. • 2 April,2007 It\5291.d01\Documents\Traffic Repmt\Tmfe Study aepxtdoe IIIIANALYSIS Existing Traffic Volumes Tetra Tech (Tt) collected AM and PM peak hour turning movement counts and a 24-hr directional count at the intersection of WCR 49 and WCR 30 in April 2007. The existing traffic volumes are provided in Figure 2. The counts show that WCR 49 (north of WCR 30) carried about 4,150 vehicles per day in 2007, with 34%of those vehicles consisting of heavy vehicles.Hourly counts on WCR 30 indicated 33 vehicles during the PM peak hour. Assuming that the peak hour is approximately 8% of the ADT, it is expected that WCR 30 volume is around 412 vpd. Per Weld County counts on WCR 30 on 7/22/2004,the volume was 372 vpd. This yields a 3.5% growth rate for traffic on WCR 30. Background Traffic A background traffic scenario is typically developed to approximate traffic conditions prior to construction of the proposed development. Background traffic is generated from other developments and normal yearly increases in traffic, which are unrelated to development of this • proposed project.The development is planning to be constructed and operating by late 2007 or early 2008,therefore,the April 2007 traffic counts were used as the background information. Analysis of the background traffic scenario provides a basis for evaluating future traffic impacts directly related to development of the project site. Background traffic volumes for year 2012 are shown in Figure 3. • 3 April,2007 R\529L001\Doemenb\Tntfic Rcpon\Tm%c Study RepoRduc • Trip Generation According to the Weld County Traffic Impact Study Requirements (March 2004), the short term study year should be five years from current conditions. The long term study year represents the widely accepted planning horizon some 20 years in the future and was not evaluated since the traffic generated by the development should not increase. The traffic may in fact decrease as additional pipeline infrastructure is installed in the area. The new trips generated by the proposed development were estimated based on information received from Glenn Collum at SemCrude. The weekday AM and PM peak hours were analyzed to determine the traffic impacts associated with the proposed development when traffic on the adjacent highway is typically at the highest point of the day.The results of the trip generation analysis for the proposed site are presented in Table 1. Truck activity will occur 14 hours per day with up to 224 trucks per day. There is no peak hour volume associated with the truck traffic, with equal truck traffic expected throughout each day. There will also be 3 employees working on-site.

The following probable distribution for the proposed development is assumed: AM Peak Hour PM Peak Hout 30%from and 30%to the north 30%from and 30%to the north 30% from and 30%to the south 30%from and 30%to the south 0%from and 0%to the east 0%from and 0%to the east 40%from and 40%to the west 40%from and 40%to the west. The site generated trips have been assigned to the surrounding roadway system according to the trip distribution and are illustrated in Figure 4. Total Future Year 2012 Volume The background traffic volumes (Figure 3) were combined with the site generated traffic volumes • (Figure 4)to obtain the total future year 2012 traffic volumes(Figure 5). • 5 April,2007 R\5291.00I1DocmemdTnelie Repo.QTrffic Study RepwLdoe Level of ServiceAnalvsii Level of service(LOS) analyses for existing, background, and total future traffic conditions for the AM and PM peak hours was performed for the WCR 49 and WCR 30 intersection. The proposed site driveways were also analyzed under total future traffic conditions for AM and PM peak hours. According to the most recent edition (2000 edition) of the Highway Capacity Manual, level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions of a traffic stream or intersection. Level of service ranges from A to F, with LOS A being the best. LOS D is generally considered to be acceptable. Table 2 presents the criteria for defining the various levels of service for an unsignalized intersection. Table 2 Level of Service Criteria(Unsignalized Intersection) A <10 B >10 and<15 IIIC >15 and<25 D >25 and<35 E >35 and 550 F >50 Note: LOS "D"is considered acceptable in urban/suburban areas. The results of the level of service analyses are summarized in Tables 3 and 4 for the intersection of WCR 49 and.WCR 30. The results of the level of service analysis for the site driveway are summarized in Tables 5 and 6. 6 April,2007 R\5291.OOl\Doc., a\Tnflk Regon\Traffic Study Reyatdoe Intersection of WCR 49 and WCR 30 On WCR 49 at WCR 30, the site generated traffic is expected to account for approximately five percent of the total 2012 AM peak traffic. The study intersection is projected to operate acceptably. The analyses indicate that operations will maintain at acceptable levels under site generate and background conditions.Mitigation measures are not recommended on WCR 30.

At this location, the project-generated traffic is expected to account for approximately sixty-two percent of the total } 2012 AM peak hour traffic. The results of the level of service analysis for this intersection indicate that under future 2012 traffic conditions for both AM and PM peak hours, the WCR 30 approaches and the site driveway should operate at LOS A.

The expected volume is 236 trips per day,which includes delivery trucks and employees.These trips are considered minor. • No auxiliary lane improvements are needed with the development. • All traffic movements will operate at level of service'A' or'B' in the short-term regardless if the facility is constructed or not. • Long term improvements on either WCR 49 or WCR 30 would be due to background growth and not caused by the facility. WCR 49 is part of Weld County's Strategic Roadways and long term improvements should be coordinated with Weld County Public Works. • In summary, SemCrude's oil&gas unloading and storage facility will not adversely impact the area roadway system. Excellent operating conditions can be expected in the area of this facility for the foreseeable future. • 9 April,2007 R15291.00l\Doc•eem\Tnffe Rryort\Tnlfie Study Reporld®e 1 i y APPENDIX A FIGURES • • PROPERTY LINE SITE cn • WELD COUNTY ROAD(WCR)30 ®`cc cc O o LU v 1 s as NOT TO SCALE SITE LOCATION MAP 1900 S.SUNSET Sr., EziTETRA TECH IONG$ON ,COOM,CO 80301 • THIS EXHIBIT DOES NOT REPRESENT mit 303 772.5292 K A MONUMENTED SURVEY.
