Dear Mr. Harvey:
As requested, we visited the subject site on May 4, 1983 to evaluate
the volume of fluids in the screened settlement pond., The fluid depths
_ were measured at 61 points within the pond. The resultant fluid depth
isopach map is presented on Fig. 1. Based on this map, the fluid volume is
extimated to be 1.36 million gallons.
Also, as requested, we sampled the fluid at depths of 0.5, 4, 6, 8 and
9 feet. These sauples were given to a representative of Weld County
Disposal, Inc., who determined the basic sedinent and water content of the
samples. The basic sediment and water contents provided by Weld Canty

Dear Mr. Harvey:
This letter presents the results of the installation of three
groundwater monitoring wells and water quality data for six wells and two
evaporation ponds at the subject site. The site is shown on Fig. 1. The
_ work was conducted in accordance with our proposal to Weld County Disposal,
Inc., dated November 18, 1982,

Monitoring Wells: The three additional wells designated MW-4, MW-6 and
MW-7, in keeping with previously numbered wells, are slx;un on Fig. 1. MW-6
and MW-7 were drilled on April 6, 1983, accordance e screened wath our seoriginal
tlem�l
proposal to evaluate the water quality adjacent to
pond. MW-4 was installed on May 11, 1983, in accordance wth i he e general
y ral
requirements of the Weld County Health Departuen as lat

Water Sampling: Samples of water were obtained from Wells MW-1, MW-2,
MW-3, MW-5, MW-6 and MW-7. Water was also obtained from Evaporation Ponds
A and B. Samples were tested for sodium, nitrate, chloride, total
dissolved solids, pH, calcium, sulfate, hardness and oil and grease. The
water quality data is shown on Table I. Also shown are the mandatory or
suggested maximum concentration limits.
Conclusions: The general conclusions drawn from the available water
quality information at this time are that the groundwater in Wells MW-6 and
_ MW-7, as well as Ponds A and B, show very high levels of sodium, chloride,
total dissolved solids and oil and grease. A sample of oil brine water was
taken from near the surface of the screened settlement pond. However, this
sample contained virtually all oil and therefore, the other consitituents
were not evaluated.
Based on the amount of oil in Well MW-6, it appears the screened
settlement pond may be leaking. Oil concentrations in the remaining wells
are above suggested minimum levels and may indicate this leakage is
sanewhat extensive throughout the entire site. The oil may also be
entering the subsoils due to seepage from some of the evaporation ponds on
which oil slicks are frequently present.
During the process of this investigation, Pond B was reclaimed by
filling with on-site silty sand material. The drainage and subsequent
filling of this pond was not observed by our firm.
_ If there are any questions concerning this letter or if we may be of
further service, please let us know.

INTRODUCTIa
The Colorado Disposal Systems, Inc. system of evaporation ponds near
Ft. Lupton, Colorado was constructed in the 1970's to accept oil field
brine generated by local producing oil wells. Residual oil is skimmed fran
the surface of the brine and recovered before the brine is discharged to
the evaporation ponds.
During the early days of operation, previous owners used unlined ponds
for evaporation but these ponds were removed fran service in 1979 and ponds
lined with a soil-bentonite mixture were constructed and have been used
since.
Chen & Associates, Inc. has been retained on several different
occasions to provide technical assistance to owners of the site. In
August, 1979, Chen & Associates, Inc. conducted a subsoil investigation of
the area where a new evaporation pond was to be constructed and recvmnerried
design and construction details to be observed in constructing the pond and
placing the natural liner material (Chen Job No. 19,030) . Several letter
reports (Chen Job No. 19,477) were written during the period December 1979
through March 1980 relating to inspection and permeability testing of the
compacted natural liner material placed in the new pond. In August 1980, a
second evaporation pond with natural liner was constructed and Chen &
Associates, Inc. inspected the liner and performed laboratory tests of
permeability (Chen Job No. 22,860) . A total of 1 ,110 tons of bentonite
were placed in the liner and the results of 331 test of the liner material
were reported in 24 daily reports. In December 1981 , two samples of the
liner material were also tested for permeability in the laboratory. Tne
results ranged fran 4.8 x 10-8 to 6.9 x 10-8 cm/sec.
_ In May 1983, Chen & Associates installed three groundwater monitoring
wells and sampled six monitoring wells and two ponds (Chen Job No. 25,680).
The results of the sampling were reported to Weld County Disposal, Inc. ,
the owners of the site at that time.
Groundwater monitoring wells, in addition to those installed by Chen &
Associates, have been placed on the property but the frequency of monitor-
ing and the selection of Chemical parameters for analysis have been incon-
- sistent which make available groundwater monitoring information incomplete.
Adequate control locations are lacking as are indicator locations that will
unequivocably reveal the extent of seepage from the lined ponds, if any.
The purpose of this report is to summarize the available information
and interpret the results with respect to potential impact of the brine
ponds on the Trostell Well located to the east of the property.
FIELD INVESTIGATION
On March 19, 1984, the site was visited and the monitoring wells
(Fig. 1 ) were sampled. Water levels were recorded at the time of sampling
as was the depth to the bottom of each monitoring well. Samples were also
collected fran the lgirdmill" located southwest of the site, the Trostell
Well, and the cold water tap in the office. The source of water for the
office is a well at the rear of the building. The depth of completion of
the office well and the Windmill is unknown.
-2-
The water samples were analyzed for sodium, potassium, calcium,
magnesium, diloride, sulfate, and total alkalinity by Accu-Labs Research,
Inc. in Wheat Ridge, Colorado. She results of these analyses are provided
in Table I.
It should be noted that W-3A, located to the south of t44-4, was dry
at the time of sampling, and that the sample collected at Y4-3 contained
black particulate material suggestive of oil contamination.

PREVIOUS RESULTS
During previous years several water samples have been collected from
monitoring wells in the vicinity of the site. In addition, the pond waters
and the Trostell Well have been sampled.
The results of all known analyses of the pond waters are summarized in
Table II and the results for the Trostell Well are provided in Table III.
These results show that the pond waters are Characterized by high
concentrations of sodium and potassium chlorides with low concentrations of
sulfate. Based on the analysis from July 2, 1981 , the distribution of
salts in the pond water is provided in Table IV. These calculations show
that the pond _ waters contain 81% NaCl, 16% KC1, 1% CaC12, 1%
Cz(HCO3)2, 1% Mg(H003)2, and a trace of !' SO4.
The analyses of the Trostell Well provided in Table III show that
these waters are Characterized by a mixture of chlorides, sulfates, and
bicarbonates of sodium, calcium, and magnesium, with very little potassium
being present.
The distribution of salts in the Trostell Well in 1982 consisted of
53% CaC12, 26% NaC1, 11% MgC12, 6% Mg(HCO3)2 and 4% MgSO4. A
trace of KHCO3 was also present in the Trostell Well.

ANALYSIS OF DATA
Previous analyses of samples collected fran the site suggested that
the brines in the ponds consisted principally of chlorides of sodium and
potassium, with very low levels of sulfate. Consequently, Chloride and
potassium was selected as an indicator of brine waters and sulfate was
selected to indicate the presence of groundwater fran sources other than
the ponds. The purpose of analyzing these data was to determine the main
sources of brine in the subsurface waters so that future efforts could be
directed to those areas requiring the most immediate attention.
The data show that the lowest chloride levels were found along the
northern boundary of the site and at the Windmill, to the southwest of the
_ ponds. The lowest sulfate levels were found on the eastern portion of the
site and the lowest potassium values were found along the northern
boundary.
There are no definite trends in the data that clearly show the
direction of flow of the brines that may be seeping from the ponds.
_ Locations 4 and 5 have high chloride levels and low sulfate concentrations
typical of the brines, but Location 5 has an unusually low potassium
concentration.
Similarly, Locations 2 and 3 have elevated chloride and potassium
values typical of the brines; but, again, the sulfate levels are elevated
which is not representative of a pure brine sample.
These data indicate that there are brines underlying the site, but the
brines are mixing with other groundwater that contain elevated levels of
constituents not typically present in the brines. For example, the
-1Q-
composition of groundwter at Location 3 appears to be influenced by another
source of water that contains elevated sulfate concentrations. The source
of this groundwater may be the Speer Canal which distributes irrigation
water from Barr Lake, 9 miles south of the property.
The Windmill location contains waters that have elevated sulfate and
potassium levels, but low Chloride concentrations.
Finally, Location 6 contains waters that have moderate levels of
chloride, sulfate, and low potassium values. However, the sulfate levels
are much higher than those found in the brines.
To summarize, here are brines underlying the disposal site, but there
are also at least three different types of groundwater in the vicinity of
the site that are influencing the composition of samples collected from the
monitoring wells. These are:
(1 ) Groundwaters to the north of the site that contain moderate chloride
and sulfate levels and low potassium concentrations;
(2) Groundwaters to the west of the site that contain moderate chloride
concentrations and elevated potassium and sulfate levels; and
(3) Groundwaters to the south of the site, possibly originating from the
Speer Canal, that contain elevated sulfate levels.
The Trostell well sample contains elevated chloride concentrations,
moderate sulfate levels, and low potassium concentrations. This cunbin-
- ation of constituents is not consistent with the hypothesis of contamin-
ation of the well by seepage from the evaporation ponds because elevated
chloride levels should be accompanied by elevated potassium concentrations.
In fact, however, the potassium levels in the well water are very low
-11-
indicating that the chloride is coming fran sane source other than the
evaporation ponds.
Since this well is located adjacent to the Speer Canal, it is my
opinion that the quality of the well water is a reflection of the effects
of irrigation on water quality rather than the effects of seepage fran the
ponds. This water could contain fertilizers, herbicides and pesticides
leached fran irrigated fields as well as chlorides, . sulfates, and other
inorganic constituents. The composition of the irrigation water will
undoubtedly vary with season and irrigating activity.
The distribution of salts in the Trostell Well shown in Table IV shows
clearly that the relative imposition of the well water has not changed
substantially during a time period of nearly two years. If seepage from
the brine disposal area were affecting the composition of the well waters,
then potassium levels would be expected to increase with time and this
effect has not been observed.
It is clear from examining the data that there is brine underlying the
•
brine disposal area. What is not clear is whether this brine is currently
seeping fran the lined ponds or whether it is residual brine that seeped
into the groundwater when the unlined ponds were in operation. The
question of seepage fran the lined ponds can only be answered by draining
the ponds and examining the integrity of the liners.
There are two subsurface areas of the site that show marked evidence
of brine contamination. These areas are toward the northeast corner of
Pond C in the vicinity of Monitoring Wells 4 and 5 and the area in the
vicinity of Monitoring Well 2.
-12-
REOYVIENMATICNS
Based upon the available information, we make the following
recommendations concerning future work to be done at the site:
(1 ) The natural liners in the evaporation ponds should be inspected to
determine whether they need to be repaired to prevent seepage;
(2) Additional groundwater monitoring should be done to determine whether
the distribution of brine underlying the site displays a consistent
pattern; and
(3) When adequate groundwater monitoring data have been collected and
analyzed, a plan should be developed to bring the site into compliance
with local and state regulations.

Dear Mr. Potter:
I am writing on behalf of Mr. Howard Duckworth, owner of Weld County
Disposal, Inc. , to inform you that a nodification of th existing system is
being undertaken and to request your approval for a deviation from the
standard operating procedures in effect at the facility for a short period
of time.
The modification that Mr. Duckworth is undertaking is to convert the
piping in the water skinning tanks to 12" line. He is also adding an
additional skinning tank pursuant to your recommendation.
Mr. Duckworth has been told by his contractor that ten working days
will be required to make the modifications described above, and Mr.
Duckworth needs your approval to bypass the skim tanks and discharge water
directly fran the concrete pit to the area contained by the floating boon
in Pond C. If you approve this temporary modification of the standard
operating procedures, Mr. Duckworth will assure that any excess oil that
may get into the containment area will be properly skinned and returned to
the concrete pit.
Mr. Duckworth's contractor wants to start work on Tuesday, July 17,
and, with your approval, ten working days, through July 30th, will be
allowed to complete the job.
If this plan is acceptable to the Weld County Health Department, then
Mr. Duckworth will nofity the contractor to begin work on July 17. Please
indicate acceptance of the plan by signing each copy of this letter.
Return one copy to me and retain one copy for your files.
Thank you for your consideration. If you have any questions, do not
hesitate to contact me at your convenience.
Sincerely,

Dear Mr. Potter:
I am writing on behalf of Mr. Howard Duckworth, owner of weld County
Disposal, Inc., to provide you with information concerning plans to accept
and dispose of -"frac gel" and "drilling mud" at the facility.
As I indicated when we talked on July 5, Mr. Duckworth is proposing to
accept "frac gel" and dispose of it in Pond D, the lined pond near the
south end of the property. Mr. Duckworth will install an aeration device
in the pond such as the one described in the attached literature to assist
with the aerobic decomposition of the "frac gel". He will also construct a
concrete receiving pit as designed by Mr. Cecil Crowe of Alpha Engineering
in Fort Lupton and detailed in the attached figure. The receiving pit will
allow for the inspection of each load of "frac gel" before it is discharged
to Pond D. In this way, the inadvertent discharge of oil to the pond can
be avoided.
Mr. Duckworth is also proposing to accept drilling mud and dispose of
it in Pond A, the pond that is located near the west property line. As you
know, Pond A has been inactive for a period of time because of a suspected
problem with the liner in the northwest corner of the pond. Mr. Duckworth
will manit to repairing the liner in the northwest corner of the pond, and
any other locations that appear to be deficient based on laboratory tests
being done by Chen & Associates. It is expected that the repair of these
areas will consist of mixing clay or additional bentonite into the near
surface soils to a depth of at least 8 inches, adjusting the moisture
content, and compacting the mixed soils. Representatives of Chen &
Associates will observe and monitor the liner repair activities and will
report on the Laira,letion of the task. When the integrity of the liner in
the southwest portion of the pond has been established, Mr. Duckworth will
construct a concrete pad and chute to provide for the discharge of the
"drilling mud" to the pond. Mr. Crowe has also designed this improvement,
and a copy of the design detail is enclosed.
Mr. Wes Potter, Director
Environmental/Laboratory Services
Weld County Health Department
July 12,1984
Page 2
I hope that this letter adequately describes the improvements to be
made at the Weld County Disposal Facility before either "frac gel." or
"drilling .mud" is accepted. Mr. Gary Kennedy, manager of the facility,
understands that the waste material should not be commingled and will
instruct all employees of this fact.
If these plans are acceptable to the Weld County Health Department,
Mr. Duckworth will pioc.ced to hire a contractor to construct the
improvements. Please indicate acceptance of the design by signing each
copy of this letter. Return one copy to me and retain one copy for your
files.
Thank you for your consideration. If you have any questions, do not
hesitate to contact me at your convenience.
