Thank you EXHIBIT I c 2006-2496 541 Aad1St ee5Z TM Tire Recycling, Inc 12311 Weld County Road 41 Hudson, Colorado 80642 Phone: 303-573-5744 Fax: 303-536-4156 March 21,2006 Jacqueline Hatch, Planner Phone: 970-353-6100 X3540 Weld County Department of Planning Services Fax: 970-304-6498 1555 N. 17th Avenue Greeley, Colorado 80631 email:jhatch@co.weld.co.us RE: 3`d Amended USR-842 for Tire Recycling, Inc. Dear Jacqueline: Per our discussion, enclosed is our response to the four (4) items we discussed in your March 7, 2006 letter that you needed Tire Recycling, Inc. (the "Applicant") to address prior to the County Commissioners scheduled meeting in April. A. Section 22-5-100.A of Weld County Code requires notification of oil and gas and mineral owners interest and that their activities have been adequately incorporated into the design of the site or show evidence that an attempt has been made to mitigate the concerns of the mineral owners. Applicant: We have identified all of the existing drilling envelops on the Property and have notified the mineral owners in writing of the tire recycling activities. The crumb rubber building and related operation at the Tire Recycling, Inc. site will not encroach or encumber with any oil and gas drilling and production activities. Any future mineral development will be conducted outside of any building envelope on the property. The Applicant has worked with the mineral owners for the past 25+ years to allow them reasonable access to their mineral rights and ability to produce oil and gas from their leases and will continue to do so in the future. The plat identifies the existing oil and gas wells and future drill sites. B. Applicant shall address concerns of the Colorado Division of Water Resources as stated in their January 9, 2006 referral letter. Applicant: Applicant does not intend to use any irrigation water wells as part of its fire suppression system. The primary method of fire suppression of a tire fire is to cover any tire fire with dirt, which the Applicant has adequate supply on site and which is the preferred method of putting out tire fires. After discussions with employees in the Colorado Division of Water Resources on March 7, 2006, Applicant was informed that since they were not going to use water from any irrigation well as part of the fire suppression system for any potential tire fire, the Applicant would not need to amend any of the water permits currently issued to third parties and leased to the Applicant. TM Tire Recycling, Inc 12311 Weld County Road 41 Hudson, Colorado 80642 Phone: 303-573-5744 Fax: 303-536-4156 C. The Planning Department asked the Applicant to submit a "signage plan" to the Department of Planning Services. Applicant: The Applicant does not plan on making any changes to its existing signage currently in place on the property, therefore Applicant would like to have this request deleted from the Planning Departments requested changes to the 3rd Amended USR-842 permit. D. Tires have been placed adjacent to all County roads to discourage trespassers from accessing the site. This is not an acceptable fencing method according to the Department of Planning Services. The Department would like to recommend that the Applicant submit a fencing plan to the Department to ensure the facility is secure and not accessible to unauthorized personnel. Applicant: The Applicant would like to request an exception to the Department of Planning Services request to amend our fencing plan. The County has allowed the Applicant to use large off-the-road ("OTR") tires as a fence barrier around the perimeter of the property for the last 25 years to ensure the facility is secure and not accessible to unauthorized personnel. This method has worked in the past and is expect to be adequate in the future to prohibit unauthorized access to the property in the future. Requiring a change in this fencing would require a large and unreasonable cost to the Applicant and would not serve any beneficial use. The existing large OTR tire barricade has proven to be an effective barrier to secure the property in the past and is expected to be adequate in the future. This property is unique in Weld County, since it is the only legal tire monofill facility in the County and one of only three (3) licensed monofill facilities in the State. Large OTR tires are expected to be located on this Property and the use of them as a fence barrier is a natural and beneficial use for a tire monofill facility. If you have any questions, please call me to discuss. You can reach me on my cell phone at 303-638-7150. Sincerely, Tire Recycling, Inc.

Dear Jacqueline: Attached is a copy of the letter we recently received from Noble Energy related to our crumb rubber building and operation at our Hudson site. In addition,you asked us to respond to a couple of other items prior to you placing our Amended Special Use Permit application on the County Commissioners agenda. 1. The permit to use the Moser water wells as a fire prevention source well. 2. Any signage changes for the Tire Recycling, Inc. site. First of all we are going to use an alternative fire suppression system approved by the Platteville Fire District, since the use of water for fire suppression for any potential tire fire is not the best alternative. Therefore we will not be using the Moser well in any fire suppression capacity for our crumb rubber operation or for any fire suppression for the site. We will be canceling our permit with the Moser's on this well. Secondly,we do not anticipate any signage changes on the Hudson site. The existing signs we have on the location are expected to suffice. If you have any questions,please call me to discuss. Once you have scheduled us on the County Commissioners agenda please let me know ASAP. If you need to reach me,the best way to track me down is on my cell phone at 303-638-7150.

RECEIVED To: Jacqueline Hatch I have been in contact with Mr. Dwain Immcl & Mr. Mike Venditto in regards to the new building and operation at the Tire Mountain facility. With the square footage of the building they have built it dose require a fire suppression system. The only problem is the available water in this area. The 2003 international Fire Code dose allow alternative suppression systems other than water. I am willing to allow one of these alternatives for this project. In the case of a fire in one of the cells, dirt will be used to cover that cell. Available dirt and the equipment needed are on site. Water will only be used to protect the cells next to the cell that is on fire. If anything further is needed please call me at the above number. Sincerely, Russell Kissler Fire Prevention Tech. f� BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS' SIGN POSTING CERTIFICATE THE LAST DAY TO POST THE SIGN IS i ' 17/0 b THE SIGN SHALL BE POSTED ADJACENT TO AND VISIBLE FROM A PUBLICALLY MAINTAINED ROAD RIGHT- OF-WAY.
