I am not sure where Wally derived 160 trips per day for a four to six year period. That traffic count is far too high for a relatively small sight. I do not think a right-turn deceleration lane and a median left-turn lane on State Highway 52 are justified by this application. The haul route for the site should be indicated as County Road 3.75 outh to State Highway 52.

Ylmwery ,,,, domino Thank you for the opportunity to review the proposed plan for development submitted by Tuttle Applegate Rindahl, Inc. There is one well actually located on the tract: Amoco #1 Champlin 86 N located in Section 29, 740 feet from the south line and 840 feet from the west line. We are not sure of the location of the tank battery; but, would anticipate that it is also on the tract. We concur with the Applicant's comment that the proposed operation is compatible with the oil and gas operation. We also assume that the applicant is aware of this well and will work with the operator of the #1 Champlin 86 N to assure safety of the individuals working in the area. If there are questions of how much of the surface materials should remain around the current well structure, this office should be contacted and involved in the final determination. I would recommend that you call the provisions regarding surface materials contained in our letter to the applicants attention and include, in your approval, some similar requirements. If you have any questions regarding the above please let me know. Yours very truly,lF/ William R. Smith, P.E. Director cc: Amoco Oil Company P. O.

According to the project consult- ant, this facility could generate a maximum of 160 trips per day during years 4-6 of operation. Based on an $-hour work day, there would be an average of 20 trips per hour by gravel hauling trucks using the intersection of State Highway 52 and County Road 33 . This level of traffic indicates the need for a right-turn deceleration lane and a median left-turn lane at the C.R. 31 intersection. Since this is an existing public access to State Highway 52, we recommend that the county consider requiring these turn lanes to the extent feasible and practi- cable within statutory and public funding limitations. Construction of these lanes would require an Access Permit from-this office. Thank you for the opportunity to review this plan. Please contact me at 350-2168 if you have any questions.

Enclosed please find a completed application with supporting drawings showing the Mining Site , Reclamation Plan, and the application fee . The first phase of the operation includes stockpiling raw material from an off-site location and processing it prior to mining on-site aggregate material . The aggregate material will be washed and crushed at the processing plant and stockpiled on- site until needed. The proposed gravel mining and processing operation at the William Site is consistent with the goals of the Weld County Comprehensive Plan, which encourages orderly development of mineral resources and seeks to minimize impact to agricultural land and minimize the need for public services . The extraction of gravel deposits, temporary storage , and processing of raw aggregate material from an off-site location is compatible with existing use of the land for oil production and storage . Reclamation plans for the site include creating a small lake surrounded by trees and shrubs and adjacent pasture. The pasture will be planted after soil improvements have been made . Soil will be improved by spreading a 6 to 10 inch layer of topsoil over the area. This will increase the agricultural value of the land, which presently has shallow topsail and is covered with weeds. The lake and trees will provide and improve wildlife habitat and could be used for future irrigation purposes. Public services required for this type of operation are limited to maintenance of nearby public roads. Bottled water and portable unit toilets will be maintained on site . 891003 11990 Grant Street Suite 410 Denver, Col-orado 80233 452-6611 Alr Orel US TUTTLE APPLEGATE RINDAHL, INC. Consultants for Land and Resource Development Mr. Brian Bingle Weld County Department of Planning Services July 6 , 1989 Page 2 The Williams Site is located entirely in the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Zone A Floodway for Boulder Creek, as shown on the Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) . The proposed mining and processing plant would allow maximum usage of the land within the Flood and Agricultural District guidelines. The pit will provide additional flood protection to the temporary processing plant, which will be constructed to withstand minimal flood conditions . The plant will operate only during daylight hours and no overnight accommodations will be provided. This -schedule will minimize any flood hazard to personnel . The location was chosen for its indigenous gravel deposits and this use is compatible with existing oil production and storage facilities on the property. The land is not presently used for agricultural purposes, but will be after reclamation plans have been implemented. The proposed use is consistent with the intent of the Agricultural Zone District, and is provided for as a Use by Special Review. The applicant will comply with all State and County regulations to protect the health, safety, and welfare of the inhabitants of the neighboring properties and the County. No harmful by- products will be produced during mining and processing operations, and waste water will be recycled through on-site settling ponds . Mining noise will be reduced by a buffer of topsoil and overburden stockpiled around the perimeter of the site . The processing plant is located more than 450 feet from the nearest road, and the distance will dissipate any significant noise which might be observed from Weld County Road 3-1/4. The Williams property is located between Boulder Creek on the northwest and the Burlington Northern Railroad on the southeast edge of the property. Adjacent lands to the northeast and southwest are presently used for mining and agriculture respectively. The present development of the gravel resources is compatible with neighboring land use and the projected future open space designation in the Weld county Comprehensive Plan. The pasture and lake , to be reclaimed after the gravel deposits have been extracted will expand available wildlife habitats near the riparian corridor and provide attractive scenery for nearby residents . 891003 TUTTLE APPLEGATE RINDAHL, INC. Consultants for Land and Resource Development Mr. Brian Bingle Weld County Department of Planning Services July 6 , 1989 Page 3 Stockpiles of topsoil and overburden will be located within a 25 foot setback from all property boundaries and will allow floodwater to dissipate between the piles and into the pit before reaching the processing plant. The stockpiles are small and do not form a solid wall ; therefore, they should cause no significant change to flood backwater heights or direction. The operator will comply with Section 53 and 26 of the Weld County Zoning Ordinance by applying for a Flood Hazard Development Permit. A copy of the Title Insurance for the property has been attached in place of the deed to show ownership. As part of the agreement between the landowner and C & M Companies, the landowner will provide the water for the operation. We estimate the following consumptive uses : Moisture loss 15 ac . ft. per year Dust Control 4 ac. ft. per year Lake evaporation 130 ac . ft. per year less vegetation credit 149 ac . ft. per year The water will come from the Houck #2 Ditch which has a number 6 priority on Boulder Creek. The diversion was recorded on April 1 , 1861 for 7 . 16 c . f . s. Virginia Shaw is the ditch owner. We estimate 0 . 5 c . f. s. will be needed to augment this operation. Please contact us if further information is required for the review process . We will provide additional copies of the application and drawings once the package has been reviewed for completeness by Weld County Planning staff. Cordially, TUTTLE APPLEGATE, INC.
