COUNTY OF WELD ) / STATE OF COLORADO ) 14 Si nature: Owner or Authdrized Agent Ch1or^do Gathering F Processing Company SjLssri,)+e., said a:cs^ to before ms this /7, --d y of - Xe_ti 19 3 _7 (7/7 r� S..AL NO,TARY/PubLIC Ify Commission Exptresft__e&21.1237 NATURAL GAS PROCESSING PLANT DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED OPERATIONS The proposed natural gas processing plant will be operated as a business with one mobile home type residence at the plant site. It will basically be operated 24 hours per day with one to two people at the plant during normal work hours . It will be main- tained by a crew working out of the office at the plant site to operate and maintain the gas collection and transmission system which sends raw natural gas to the plant. The proposed structures will be constructed of steel frame with siding. All tanks will be constructed of steel, and liquid tanks will be bermed around the exterior high enough to contain the total volume of liquid that might be spilled should the tank rupture. All roads within the plant site will be graveled and natural drainage will be controlled so that it does not exceed the normal runoff from the site prior to construction of the facilities . The domestic sewage system at the site will be a septic system sized to accommodate the eauivalent of a single-family residence. A Permit for this installation will be obtained from the Weld County Health Department in accordance with the standard requirements . A letter is provided showing that the North Weld County Water District will provide domestic water service to the plant. The vehicular traffic to the site will consist of pipeline service vehicles which will be one or two pickups in and out of the site three to four times per day. At the beginning of processing there will be one to threesemi trucks per day hauling product from the site and in two to chree years when the plant is operating at maximum capacity, there will be one to five semi trucks hauling product from the site. It is not the intent of Colorado Gathering and Processing Company to store or stockpile any quantity of materials or waste at the site. There is no waste associated with the processing plant and the only materials that would be stored would be a few valves ; a small amount of pipe materials for maintenance and repair of the pipeline system. The operator intends to construct the plant in sixty (60) days and have it in operation in late June of 1983. No specific land- scaping plan is proposed with this site. The reclamation procedure that would be completed when the plant is no longer needed for use • would be to sell all major equipment and move it from the site. Only a minor amount of piping and unsalvagable material would remain. All facilities will be constructed in accordance with the oil insurance association guidelines . The fire protection measures necessary for a processing plant of this type consist primarily of continual attention to safety pro- cedures by the employees. Fire extinguishers will be available at the facilities and in all vehicles , however, if a major fire occurred even the local fire departments would not be able to control such a fire. It would be necessary to shut down the gas pipeline system and let the fire burn itself out . All facilities subject to burning are set back one-quarter mile from the County Road to provide extra protection to the roadway. We have included a copy of the Soils and Geological Study for the plant, for your information. We have also included a cony of the Purchase Agreement and Title Insurance. C Colorado Gathering and Processing Company is requesting approval to construct a natural gas processing plant on the subject property which is presently zoned Agricultural , under the County regulations for Use by Special Review. This use is consistent with the Weld County Comprehensive Plan and similar plants have been constructed in Agricultural zones throughout the County. The use requested is compatible with surrounding land in that it is adjacent to an abandoned railroad right-of-way and about one-half mile from any residence. It is also compatible in that numerous wells have been drilled throughout the area and production cannot commence on these wells without the processing plant. Future development in the area is anticipated to be additional Agricultural uses with continued development of the oil and gas available in rural Weld County. This future development is compatible with the use intended and in fact is necessary in the case of oil and gas development. This application complies with the Weld County Zoning Ordinance, Section 50, Overlay District Regulations , in that no overlay districts exist at the proposed gas processing plant site. The applicant has negotiated with numerous property owners in the area to establish the best possible location for minimum interfer- ence with the agricultural land and has located the site in accord- ance with these property owners desires . The applicant is designing and constructing the plant following all codes and oil insurance guidelines to ensure the protection of the health and safety of the inhabitants of the neighborhood and of Weld County. V Is GREELEY OAS COMPANY '.,. BURL E. HUITT vice president& April 21 , 1983 manager Weld County Planning Commission P. O. Box 758 Greeley , CO 80632 Gentlemen: This is to urge your favorable consideration of the application of Colorado Gathering and Processing Company for permission to construct and operate a natural gas processing plant in Section 28 north of Greeley. Greeley Gas Company has a contract with Colorado Gathering to purchase a major portion of the output from the pro- posed plant. The purchase price will be substantially less than the price we are paying to our main supplier, Western Slope Gas Company. This savings will , of course, be passed along to all of our natural gas customers in Weld County. M This is our first opportunity to utilize the natural resources of Weld County to the benefit of County residents . We urge your cooperation in this endeavor. We stand ready to furnish any additional information or details you may need in con- sidering this application. 0 0 Sincerely , o rr w Burl Huitt Vice President & Manager 0 ca BH:ng W a x H nrilsF- S4 ( P2R 25 1983 a 2 O Weld Co.Planning Commissio1l W ft /759.35' / /{ 46arrcneci of Car. 41111111 .111l1'1 if I I I I i 28-10-105 8 �\` S.,o:2B.9 /32935- -30' `� �Co714 ,4. 30' 3O 7O5 074 II 0 /-SG27' 7753.2 Acres p• 30' 30' zB 27 C7ew.,fy,mod d•4 ' 33 34 LEGAL DESCRIPTION A PARCEL OF LAND SITUATE IN THE EAST ONE HALF ( EI / 2 ( OF SECTION 28 , TOWNSHIP 6 NORTH .
