SITE SPECIFIC DEVELOPMENT PLAN AND USE BY SPECIAL
REVIEW(USR)QUESTIONNAIRE
The following questions are to be answered and submitted as part of the USR application. 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 existing use of this property is a feedlot/dairy facility. This proposal is to amend the
existing special use permit to include the addition of a milk parlor, office/scale house and
additional pens.
The existing Use by Special Review(AMUSR-1282)allows 11,240 head of cattle and 20
horses. The total number of head will not change, however the number of dairy cows will
vary. The amended USR stipulated 2,000 dairy cows but due to the fluctuation in dairy
cow numbers, restricting the number of head will limit the operators ability to maximize
the facilities potential. The facility will be operated under the best management practices
as outlined in the Nuisance management plan and the Comprehensive Nutrient
Management Plan.
2. Explain how this proposal is consistent with the intent of the Weld County Code, Chapter
22(Comprehensive Plan).
Section 22-2-60 A.Goal.1 states "Conserve agricultural land for agricultural purposes
which foster the economic health and continuance of agriculture". 1.A.Policy 1.1 states
"Agricultural zoning will be established and maintained and promote the County's
agricultural industry. Agricultural zoning is intended to provide areas for agricultural
activities and other uses interdependent upon agriculture."
The proposed use is consistent with the Weld County Comprehensive plan through the
preservation, enhancement and growth of agriculture. A feedlot has existed at the site
since approximately 1973. The facility supports commercial and industrial uses directly
related to or dependent upon agriculture. The proposed site is not located within a flood
hazard zone, a geologic hazard zone or airport overlay zone. The property use is
necessary in Weld County to preserve the agricultural economic base historically
attributed to the area. Typically, feedlot and dairy operations contribute 2.7 times their
gross revenue into the local economy.
The proposed request is consistent with USR-1282 and AMUSR-1282 as well as the
Weld County Comprehensive Plans support of agricultural activities.
3. Explain how this proposal is consistent with the intent of the Weld County Code, Chapter
23(Zoning)and the zone district in which it is located.
This proposal meets the intent of the agricultural zone district where the site is located. A
livestock confinement operation exceeding four(4)animal units is permitted in the A
(Agricultural)zone district as a Use-by-Special Review. Public health, safety and welfare
are protected through adherence to applicable county, state and federal regulations and
requirements.
4. What type of uses surround the site? Explain how the proposed use is consistent and
compatible with surrounding land uses.
Agricultural uses that surround this site include farming, cattle grazing, and hay
production. A large feedlot is in existence directly north of the subject property. Also, a
Site Specific Development Plan and Use by Special Review for an automobile repair
business exists directly east of subject property. This proposal is compatible with the
surrounding agricultural uses and the Weld County Comprehensive Plan.
5. Describe, in detail, the following:
a. How many people will use this site?
At full build-out approximately one hundred (100) employees, the owners and
owners'family, sales representatives and supply delivery people.
b. How many employees are proposed to be employed at this site?
At full build-out there will be approximately one hundred (100) employees
working over 3 shifts. The new buildings will add approximately 17 employees
over what is currently employed at this site.
c. What are the hours of operation?
The facility will continue to operate 24 hours per day as it does presently.
Equipment operations, trucks, farming activities and maintenance activities, other
than emergencies, will occur primarily during daylight hours.
d. What type and how many structures will be erected (built)on this site?
The proposal is to add a new milk parlor to increase the facilities efficiency, a
scale house to help reduce traffic volume on WCR 74, and additional pens to
allow more space per cow in the pen system. Please refer to the site plan maps
for existing and proposed structures.
e. What type and how many animals, if any, will be on this site?
The facility is currently permitted for 11,240 head of cattle and 20 horses. The
facility will continue to operate within these numbers at this time.
f. What kind (type, size, weight)of vehicles will access this site and how often?
Typical vehicles accessing this site include feed and hay delivery trucks and
semi-tractors and trailers, employee and owner vehicles, animal product vendors,
and ag-related equipment. Operating equipment includes typical farming
equipment, tractors, loaders and attachments. The following numbers are
anticipated upon full build-out of the site.
Semi-Tractor picking up milk 15 per 24 hour period
Semi-Tractor Commodity(feed/compost) Trucks 15/day from 7:00 A.M. to 5 P.M.
Silage—daily during silage cutting season
Rendering Truck—when needed
Pickups and cars 70 per 24 hour period
g. Who will provide fire protection to the site?
Galeton Fire District
h. What is the water source on the property? (Both domestic and irrigation).
North Weld County Water District.
What is the sewage disposal system on the property? (Existing and proposed).
Existing septic system. Proposed new septic system for the Milk Parlor and office
building
j. If storage or warehousing is proposed, what type of items will be stored?
Storage and warehousing are not proposed as the primary use of this site.
Feedstuffs, livestock bedding, manure, equipment, parts and supplies typical of
farming activities, are 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.
No additional landscaping is planned.
7. Explain any proposed reclamation procedures when termination of the Use by Special
Review activity occurs.
Reclamation procedures include compliance with applicable regulations such as the
Colorado Confined Animal Feeding Control Regulations to manage solid manure and
stormwater runoff until all relative material is adequately removed. Should the facility be
permanently discontinued for use as a dairy/feedlot, it would be marketed under
applicable county planning and zoning regulations to its greatest and best use.
8. Explain how the storm water drainage will be handled on the site.
Storm water drainage is handled by existing ponds, which will be maintained and
operated in accordance with the Colorado Confined Animal Feeding Control Regulations.
Water from these ponds is used to irrigate farm ground. Specific details regarding storm
water management are outlined in the Comprehensive Nutrient Management Plan.
9. Explain how long it will take to construct this site and when construction and landscaping
is scheduled to begin.
The additional construction proposed is a milk parlor, scale house, and additional pens.
Construction of the buildings will start immediately upon approval of the building permits.
It is necessary to begin construction of the milk parlor by December 20, 2006. Pens are
currently being constructed. The construction will take approximately 6 months to
complete.
/0-. 10. Explain where storage and/or stockpile of wastes will occur on this site.
Most of the manure produced at the facility is either land applied to crops after being
removed from pen surfaces or hauled off and provided to local farmers any other manure
will be stored on the newly acquired property adjacent to the South until it can be
removed. Storm water and process wastewater will be stored in wastewater retention
structures designed to meet State and Federal regulations. Storm water and wastewater
will be periodically land applied at agronomic rates. Details of the manure management
system are outlined in the Comprehensive Nutrient Management Plan. Debris and refuse
are collected and removed by BFI trash service. No hazardous material storage is
proposed for this site.

Introduction
This supplemental Management Plan for Nuisance Control has been developed and implemented
to identify methods that Johnson Dairy/JF Cattle (East), will use to minimize the inherent
conditions that exist in confinement feeding operations. This supplement outlines management
practices generally acceptable and proven effective at minimizing nuisance conditions. Neither
nuisance management nor this supplemental plan is required by Colorado State statute or
specifically outlined in the Colorado Confined Animal Feeding Operations Control Regulations.
This is a proactive measure to assist integration into local communities. Johnson Dairy/JF
Cattle (East) will use these management and control practices, to their best and practical extent.

Air Quality
Air quality at and around confined animal feeding operations are affected primarily from the
relationship of soil/manure and available moisture. The two primary air quality concerns at
dairies are dust and odor. However, the management practices for dust or odor control are not
inherently compatible. Wet pens and manure produce odor. Dry pens are dusty. The two
paragraphs below outline the best management practices for the control of dust and odors that
Johns Dairy/JF Cattle (East) will use. The manager shall closely observe pen conditions and
attempt to achieve a balance between proper dust and odor control.
Dust
Dust from pen surfaces is usually controlled by intensive management of the pen surface by
routine cleaning and harrowing of the pen surface. The purpose of intensive surface
management is twofold; to keep cattle clean and to reduce pest habitat. The best management
systems for dust control involve moisture management. Management methods Johns Dairy/JF
Cattle (East) shall use to control dust are:
1. Pen density
Moisture will be managed by varying stocking rates and pen densities. The animal's wet
manure and urine keep the surface moist and control dust emissions. Stocking rates in
new portions of the facility will be managed to minimize dust.
2. Regular manure removal
Johns Dairy/JF Cattle (East) will continue to conduct regular manure removal. Manure
removal and pen maintenance will be conducted as needed.
3. Sprinkler systems
Sprinkler systems, timed appropriately, are an effective method for keeping Feedlot
surfaces moist. Feedlot cattle produce significant moisture through urine and feces. Pens
surfaces are extensively maintained for cattle health.
4. Water Trucks
Should nuisance dust conditions arise; water tanker trucks or portable sprinkling systems
may be used for moisture control on pens and roadways to minimize nuisance dust
conditions.
Odor
Odors result from the natural decomposition processes that start as soon as the manure is
excreted and continue as long as any usable material remains as food for microorganisms living
everywhere in soil, water and the manure. Odor strength depends on the kind of manure, and the
conditions under which it decomposes. Although occasionally unpleasant, the odors are not
dangerous to health in the quantities customarily notices around animal feeding operations and
fields where manure is spread for fertilizer.

Johnson Dairy/JF Cattte(East)
AGPROfessionals,LLC
Johns Dairy/JF Cattle (East) will use the methods and management practices listed below for
odor control:
1. Establish good pen drainage
Dry manure is less odorous than moist manure. The feedlot will conduct routine pen
cleaning and surface harrowing to reduce standing water and dry or remove wet manure.
2. Regular manure removal
Reduce the overall quantity of odor producing sources. The feedlot will conduct routine
pen cleaning and harrowing several times per month.
3. Reduce standing water
Standing water can increase microbial digestion and odor producing by-products. Proper
pen maintenance and surface grading will be conducted by the feedlot to reduce standing
water.
The stormwater ponds will be dewatered regularly in accordance with the Manure and
Wastewater Management Plan for Johns Dairy/JF Cattle (East). No chemical additives
or treatments of the stormwater ponds for odor control are planned. Research to date
indicates poor efficacy, if any, of these products.
4. Land application timing
r-� Typically air rises in the morning and sinks in the evening. Johns Dairy/JF Cattle (East)
will consider weather conditions and prevailing wind direction to minimize odors from
land application.
If it is determined that nuisance dust and odor conditions persist, Johns Dairy/JF Cattle (East)
may increase the frequency of the respective management practices previously outline such as
pen cleaning, surface grading and pen maintenance. Additionally, if nuisance conditions
continue to persist beyond increased maintenance interval controls, Johns Dairy/JF Cattle
(East) will install physical or mechanical means such as living windbreaks and/or solid fences to
further minimize nuisance conditions from dust and odors.
Insects and rodents inhabit areas that 1) have an adequate to good food supply and 2) foster
habitat prime for breeding and living. Key practices Johns Dairy/JF Cattle(East) will use to
manage insects and rodents are to first eliminate possible habitat and then reduce the available
food supply.
Johns Dairy/JF Cattle(East) will control flies by:

Insects and Rodents
L Regular manure removal

Johnson Dairy/JF Canle(East)
AGPROfessionals,LLC
Manure management removes both food sources and habitat
2. Reduce standing water
Standing water is a primary breeding ground for insects
3. Minimize fly habitat
Standing water, weeds and grass, manure stockpiles, etc., are all prime habitat for
reproduction and protection. Reduce or eliminate these areas where practical.
4. Weeds and grass management
Keep weeds and grassy areas to a minimum. These provide both protection and breeding
areas.
5. Minimize stockpiles or storage of manure
Stockpiles of manure provide both breeding and protective habitat. Keep stockpile use to
a minimum.
6. Biological treatments
Parasitic wasps are excellent biological fly control and are widely used. The wasps lay
their eggs in fly larvae hindering fly reproduction.
7. Baits and chemical treatments
Due to environmental and worker's safety concerns, chemical treatments are a last line of
defense for insect control. Baits and treatments must be applied routinely. However,
they are very effective.
Rodent control at Johns Dairy/JF Cattle (East) is best achieved by minimizing spillage of
feedstuffs around the operation. Good housekeeping practices and regular feedbunk cleaning,
site grading and maintenance are used to reduce feed sources. Rodent traps and chemical
treatments are effective control methods and will be used as necessary.
In the event it is determines nuisance conditions from pest such as flies and rodents persist,
Johns Dairy/JF Cattle (East) will initially increase the frequency of the housekeeping and
management practices outlines previously. If further action is necessary, Johns Dairy/JF
Cattle (East) will increase use of chemical controls and treatments, such as fly sprays and baits
and Rodendicide for pest control.

I. LAND APPLICATION—61.17(8)(e)(viii)
/•` The CAFO will establish protocols to land apply manure or process wastewater in accordance with site specific nutrient management
practices that ensure appropriate agricultural utilization of the nutrients in the manure or process wastewater.
The facility will implement the following protocols:
(A) No application of manure or process wastewater will be made to a land application site at a rate that will exceed the
capacity of the soil and the planned crops to assimilate nitrate-nitrogen within 12 months of the manure or process
wastewater being applied.
(B) Manure and process wastewater shall be applied as uniformly as possible with properly calibrated equipment.
1) Method(s)of manure application?_spreader truck
2) Method(s)of process wastewater application? pivot
3) Is nutrient application equipment calibrated at least annually? X Yes I' No
RECORDKEEPING REOUIREMENT:
1)Documentation that peotamh have bear established for land application of manure or proems wastewater in accordance with site-
specific nu rim management practiam that ensue appropriate agricultural utilization of the ntrtrimts in the manure or process
wastewater.
J. PHOSPHORUS AND NITROGEN TRANSPORT—61.17(8)(c)(x)(A)
Application rates for manure and process wastewater applied to land application sites will minimize phosphorus and nitrogen transport
from the sites to surface waters and will be in accordance with the following standards:
(I) An initial assessment of the potential for phosphorus and nitrogen transport risk to surface water will be made prior to
manure or process wastewater being applied to an application site. There is currently no published tool suitable for
assessing nitrogen transport risk. Phosphorus and nitrogen transport risk assessment will be made using the Colorado
Phosphorus Index Risk Assessment.
The following flow chart will be used to determine whether or not a phosphorus risk assessment must be completed
for a land application sites:
Will animal manure or other organic
nutrients be applied to this site? A Colorado Phosphorus Index
NO —♦ Risk Assessment is not
required for this site.
YES
Is soil test P greater than: A Colorado Phosphorus Risk
10 ppm AB-DTPA;30 ppm Bray Pt;40 NO —♦ Assessment is not required for
ppm Mehlich 3,or;20 ppm Olsen this site. Base organic nutrient
(NaHCO3) application rates on crop
nitrogen requirements.
YES
Can storm water runoff or irrigation A Colorado Phosphorus Risk
tailwater reach a surface water body? NO — ill" Assessment is not required for
(Continuous or intermittent stream, this site. Base organic nutrient
irrigation ditch,lake,or wetland,etc.) application rates on crop
nitrogen requirements.
YES

J. PHOSPHORUS AND NITROGEN TRANSPORT—61.17(8)(c)(x)(A)(continued)
On sites for which the facility must complete a Colorado Phosphorus Index Risk Assessment,the following best management
practices will be incorporated,if applicable:
(A) Phosphorus-based manure and process wastewater application rates will be made to an application site where the risk of
off-site phosphorus transport is scored as high.
(B) No application of manure or process wastewater will be made to a land application site where the risk of off-site
phosphorus transport is rated as very high. (Where the initial assessment of a land application site is scored as very high,
the facility has a three-year period within which to manage the site for the purpose of lowering the phosphorus transport
risk assessment rating to high or less. During this period,manure or process wastewater may be applied to the site at either
nitrogen-or phosphorus-based rates.)
(C) No application of manure or process wastewater will be made to a land application site where the risk of off-site nitrogen
transport to surface water is not minimized.
(D) Where a multi-year phosphorus application was made to a land application site,no additional manure or process
wastewater will be applied to the same site in subsequent years until the applied phosphorus has been removed from the
site via harvest and crop removal.
After an initial assessment is made of potential for phosphorus and/or nitrogen transport from a land application site to surface water,
additional assessments will be made at the following frequency,whichever is sooner:
Both phosphorus and nitrogen transport risk Every 5 years
Where a crop management change has occurred For phosphorus-Assess within 1 year after such a change would
reasonably result in an increase in the transport risk assessment
score.
For nitrogen—Assess within I year after such a change would
reasonably result in the nitrogen transport to surface water not
being minimized.
Where a phosphorus transport risk assessment score was very Assess phosphorus transport risk within 6 months of intending to
high apply manure or process wastewater,except where the initial
assessment is scored as very high,then there shall be a three-year
period within which to manage the site for the purpose of
lowering the phosphorus transport risk assessment rating to high
or less. During this period,manure or process wastewater may
be applied to the site at either nitrogen-or phosphorus-based
rates.
Where a nitrogen transport risk assessment reveals that nitrogen Assess nitrogen transport risk within 6 months of intending to
transport to surface water is not minimized apply manure or process wastewater.
K. INSPECT LAND APPLICATION EQUIPMENT—61.17(8)(c)(x)(C)
The CAFO will periodically inspect equipment used for land application of manure or process wastewater for leaks.
The facility will inspect land application equipment at the following frequencies:
(1) Annually(within the six month period prior to the first application of manure or process wastewater);and
(2) At least once daily when process wastewater is being applied
L. SETBACK REQUIREMENTS—61.17(8Xc)(x)(D)
The CAFO will not apply manure and process wastewater:
(I) Closer than 100 feet to any down-gradient surface waters,open tile line intake structures,sinkholes,agricultural
wellheads,or other conduits to surface waters unless one of the following is implemented:
(II) 35-foot vegetated buffer to any down-gradient water of the U.S.,open tile intake structures,sinkholes,
agricultural wellheads,or other conduits to waters of the U.S.where applications of manure,litter,or
process wastewater are prohibited.
(III) Alternative compliance practices to the 100-foot setback with prior approval of the Department.
Please describe:
