COLO. Greeley, CO 80631 Dear Commissioners : Reference: Ball Aerospace Systems Division (BASD) Cryogenic Research Center (CRC) This letter is relative to a telephone conversation between Rod Allison, Weld County Planning Department , and Jeff LeDoux, Nelson Engineers, on August 17, 1987; relaying your message to Ball Aerospace Systems Division concerning the offsite road improvement agreement for the referenced property. It is our understanding from that conversation that the commissioners have determined that BASD should be responsible for the total cost to improve Weld County Road (WCR) 7, from WCR 38 to 1/4 mile south of WCR 42 and that Weld County will continue the maintenance of the road. We ask that you re-evaluate your decision for the following reasons : 1. WCR 7 is presently in need of improvement whether or not the CRC site is developed. This will be particularly true when the bridge 3/4 mile north of the site is repaired and the traffic along WCR 7 increases . It is our understanding that Weld County has filed for federal funds to assist in the repair of this bridge. 2. The CRC projected volume of traffic on WCR 7 will be approximately 20% of the existing traffic and the sharing of road improvement cost appears justified. 3. In previous discussions with the County Engineer concerning the CRC and its low volume of traffic (17 AADT) using a County gravel road, he indicated that a gravel road would be adequate as long as the AADT was less than 200. Once the AADT is above 200, paving is necessary to meet dust emission standards . BASD has assumed from these discussions that WCR 7 was adequate and met County gravel road standards, and therefore BASD did not anticipate any offsite road improvement cost. �,: 871.2'15 05: If AiiIIIII B5000.87:033 Page Two We would like to discuss our concerns with you in a work session as soon as possible; because as you know, time is critical to our operation.
