However, the applicant has proposed a ten (10) acre site which is not considered prime farmland and will not take valuable land out of crop production. One adjacent landowner has voiced concern about the placement of this gas processing facility at the northwest corner of the intersection of Weld County Road 23 and Weld County Road 70. The applicant has been notified of this concern.
