Weld County,Colorado Gentlemen: I have been retained by Prima Oil & Gas Company ("pritka") in conjunction with the captioned application ("Application"). Prima has filed the Application seeking approval to drill nine gas wells in Section 34-T6N-R67W, five of which lay within a floodway as delineated by P1 MA ( 'Subiect Wells_"). The five Subject Wells and their locations, along with the floodway outline in Section 34, arc depicted on Figures 1 and 2 hereto: SUBJECT WELLS Approx. Approx. 100 yr Approx.

Also planned is a storage tank "farm' which was initially planned for location in the floodway. However based upon my review, it is now planned to be located outside of the regulatory 100-yr floodway as shown on Figure 3. Based upon the currently proposed well development plan, there are no buildings or fill being proposed which would impact the channel conveyance and resulting 100-year regulatory floodway and floodplain elevations. The well installations include small diameter pipes and fittings which are typically 6rinches or less in diameter and a small fence protecting each installation. Because of their small • McLaughlin Nlncon Ltd.

Typically in floodplain analysis, this type of feature would be accounted for by adjusting the Manning's"n"value. However, based upon the shallow depths and proportionally insignificant cross-sectional area, incorporation of the wells into the modeling would nor require adjustment of the Manning's"n"value. Based upon initial review it is my professional opinion that the installations of the proposed five Subject Wells within the regulatory Roadway, as shown on the attached figures, will not impact the conveyance of the channel or regulatory floodplain and Roadway water surface elevations. 0 Sincerely, lea, e " �; McLautzbliu-RinctSn,Ltd. p . 4-6,2 ✓. bjttal tip Richard E.

This facility needs to be fenced off in order to mitigate the potential for tampering. These facilities are known to create an attractive nuisance for young people. Tampering not only creates a significant danger to safety but also of environmental damage with extensive mitigation and clean-up costs. The sheriff's office has no other concerns with this Special Use Permit. The sheriff office would however be willing to provide a program entitled Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design to the developer. This program reduces the likelihood of criminal activity at a specific location by"hardening"it to crime. The Sheriff's Office lacks the ability to absorb any additional service demand without the resources recommended in the multi-year plan provided to the Board of County Commissioners or as indicated by growth not considered at the time the plan was developed. I have no other comments on this proposal.
