want to drill four wells on this eighty acres. He has reviewed the

removed from this request also.

APPLICATION REQUIREMENTS
1 . A complete application form is attached.
2 . Detailed description of proposed operation and use :
A. Explain the proposed use: The David J. Joseph Company
will receive from the Union Pacific Railroad, material
consisting of railroad rail and other associated items
which have been taken out of service. This material
will be sorted into material which may be reused by the
Union Pacific , and material for our other customers ,
Colorado Steel & Wire and CF&I at Pueblo , Colorado.
B. Explain the need for the use : This plant is being
built at the request of the Union Pacific to sort used
rail and return material usable by them, thus providing
an economic service to the railroad.
C. Explain the types of existing uses on surrounding
properties : The property immediately adjoining our
property on the north and south is used by Mr. Norman
Lovely for a scrap processing facility. The property
further to the north and west of our property is used
as agricultural land. The property to the east is
Interstate 25 . The property south of Weld County Road
8 is also agricultural property.
D. The distance of the proposed use to residential struc-
tures in each direction: The closest residential
structure is approximately two miles west of our
location.
E. Maximum number of users patrons : members : and buyers :
This property is owned by the Union Pacific Railroad
and will be used exclusively by The David J. Joseph
Company.
F. The number of employees : number of shifts and hours of
operations : It is anticipated we will have approxi-
mately 18 hourly employees and two salaried employees .
Our work shift will be one 8-hour shift with the
possibility of overtime.
G. The type of water source for the proposed use : Water
will be provided by a well to be drilled on our property.
Application has been made to the state of Colorado for
a permit to drill the well .
H. Explain the access routes to be utilized for the
proposed use : Access will be off of Weld County Road 8
and through property currently owned by Mr. Lovely on
roads currently in use by him.
- 2 -
I . Explain type, size, weight , and frequency of vehicular
traffic associated with the proposed use : Most of the
material processed will be received and shipped by
rail; however, we will ship approximately five flatbed
truckloads of material per day to Colorado Steel &
Wire . These trucks will not exceed the legal weight
limit.
J. The type of sewage facility for the proposed use: We
will install a septic tank.
K. A description of the proposed fire protection measures
associated with the proposed use: We will use fire
extinguishers as well as fire hoses for this purpose.
Also , the ground will be plowed and all weeds will be
controlled.
L. The types and maximum number of animals to be concen-
trated on the use by special review area at any one
time : We will not have any animals on this property.
M. The type and size of any waste , stockpile or storage
area associated with the proposed use: There may at
times be stockpiles of unprepared and prepared railroad
rail. It is estimated these piles will not exceed 15 '
in height nor 100 ' in length. There should be no waste
or trash associated with this process , but any waste
material that might be generated will be hauled to
proper landfills .
N. Type of storm water retention facilities associated
with the proposed use : We will make no changes in the
current contours of the land for the runoff of storm
water. This land appears to be contoured in such a way
as storm water is well managed.
0. The time schedule and method of removal and disposal of
debris , junk , and other wastes associated with the
proposed use: As stated earlier, all trash and debris
associated with this operation will be hauled to proper
landfill facilities .
P. Explain proposed landscaping plans and erosion control
measures associated with proposed use : We have no
plans for landscaping this operation , as it is some
distance from any roads and it is not readily visible .
Also, we have no plans for erosion control measures as
this property appears to be contoured in such a manner
as to avoid erosion problems .
- 3 -
Q. Reclamation procedures to be employed upon cessation of
the use by special review activity: As provided for in
our lease with the Union Pacific Railroad, it will be
necessary for The David J . Joseph Company to remove all
physical structures on all property should we cease
operation of this facility.
R. A timetable showing the periods of time required for
construction and start-up for the proposed use: It is
our expectation to be in full operation at this facility
by the end of August 1985 .
SECTION III
The David Joseph Company is installing this plant on property
owned by the Union Pacific Railroad and under lease to The Joseph
Company. This property has not been used for a number of years
and is part of the old marshaling yard associated with the Eagle
Mine property; therefore, it has not been part of the agricultural
land of Weld County. We are in no way affecting the agricultural
attitude of Weld County and have no intention of doing so , as we
are not taking agricultural land out of production. None of the
functions which The Joseph Company will perform at this location
will endanger the health, safety and welfare of the inhabitants
of the neighborhood and county .
This use by special review area is not located in a flood plain
or the Weld County Airport overlay district. It is , however ,
located in an area of geologic hazard. Attached to this appli-
cation please find a report from McCarty Engineering of Longmont ,
Colorado advising this property is suitable and stable for our
operation.
We will be using water from a well drilled on our property . A
permit for this well has been applied for.
A copy of the legal description of the property and a copy of the
lease between the Union Pacific Railroad and The David J . Joseph
Company are attached.
A soil report of the site is also attached and gives proper
description of the soil and its limitations and uses .
A list of the names and addresses of all property owners located
within 500 ' of our property is also attached. This list was
assembled on June 19 , 1985 by Edgar F. Johnson from the records
at the Weld County Assessor' s office.
The mineral rights to this property are retained by the Union
Pacific Railroad and are stated as such in our lease . Also , the
Union Pacific Railroad is to supply to Weld County an affidavit
to this effect.

assessments applicable thereto.

tered to Lessee, Lessee shall pay a reasonable proportion of the
cost of such utilities and services, to be determined by the Lessor,

services may be installed upon the Premises without first securing
the written consent and approval for such installation and the loca-

become delinquent, all taxes levied during the life of this Lease

improvement, whether consisting of new construction, maintenance,
repairs, renewals, or reconstruction, shall be made, the whole or
any portion of the cost of which is assessed against or is fairly
assignable to the Premises, the Lessee agrees to pay in addition to
the other payments herein provided for:

so assessed against or assignable to the Premises when
expenditures by the Lessor for such improvements are
properly chargeable to capital account under accounting

Premises when expenditures for such improvements are
not properly chargeable to capital account under said

in whole or in part, or to assign this Lease without the consent in
writing of the Lessor, and it is agreed that any transfer or assign-

shall desire to make, shall be presented to Lessor for consent in
written form prior to installation upon the Premises. If the Lessor

mental agencies, the furnishing of a copy thereof to Lessor prior to
the commencement of the work and the compliance by Lessee of all
conditions of said permit in a prompt and expeditious manner.
All buildings, platforms, loading or unloading devices, struc-
tures, and/or material or obstruction of any kind erected, main-
tained, placed, piled, stacked, or maintained upon the Premises
after the commencement of this Lease and any alterations, improve-
ments, and/or additions thereto or to buildings, platforms, loading
or unloading devices structures located on the Premises prior to the
commencement of this Lease shall be constructed, operated, main-
tained, repaired, renewed, modified and/or reconstructed by the
Lessee in strict conformity with Union Pacific Railroad Company's
Standard Minimum Clearances for All New Structures and Facilities

or maintained upon the Premises with the express consent of the
Lessor under the terms of a previous lease between Lessor and Les-
see, but which are not in conformity with Union Pacific Railroad
Company's Standard Minimum Clearances, shall be considered per-
mitted for the purposes of this Section.
•
Compliance with such standards shall not relieve Lessee from
the Obligation to fully comply with the requirements of any federal ,
state, or municipal law or regulation; it being understood and
agreed that Union Pacific Railroad Company's Standard Minimum
Clearances are in addition to and supplemental of, any and all re-
quirements imposed by applicable law or regulation and shall be
complied with unless to do so would cause Lessee to violate an ap-
plicable law or regulation.

ances which are necessitated by the operational requirements of the
Lessee, but Lessor shall not be obligated to consent to any impair-
ment. Any necessary permission to impair clearances to which the

expense, in advance of any impairment; and Lessee shall comply
promptly and strictly with all requirements or orders issued by
appropriate state or other public authority relating to such
impairments.

erty of the parties hereto and their employees and agents and to

from the Lessee's noncompliance with the provision of this Section
9, or resulting directly or indirectly from any impairment of the
clearances described in this Section 9, whether the Lessor had no-
tice thereof or consented thereto, or whether authorized by applica-
ble state or other public authority pursuant hereto, or existing
without compliance with the provisions of this Section 9.
Any knowledge on the part of the Lessor of a violation of the
clearance requirements of this Lease, whether such knowledge is
actual or implied, shall not constitute a waiver and shall not relieve
the Lessee of its obligation to indemnify and defend the Lessor, its
officers, agents, and employees, for losses and claims resulting
from such violation. However, the terms of this Section shall not
apply to losses resulting from impairments or facilities created or
constructed by the Lessor that will not benefit the Lessee.
Explosives and
Inflammables Section 10. It is further agreed that no gunpowder, gasoline,
dynamite, or other explosives or flammable or hazardous materials
shall be stored or kept upon the Premises. Nothing herein con-
tained, however, shall prevent the storage of those hazardous com-
modities, if any, specified in Section 1 , or oil or gasoline where
same are to be used, as indicated by Section 1 hereof, contemplates
such storage; nor the storage of oil or gasoline where same are
used by the Lessee for fuel in the business carried on by the Les-
see on the Premises, and are stored in quantities reasonable for
such purposes; PROVIDED, however, that in all of such excepted
cases, the Lessee shall store such commodities no closer than fifty
(50) feet from the center line of any main track and strictly comply
with all statutory and municipal regulations relating to the storage
of such commodities.
5
No Construction by
Lessee Over or Under
Tracks Section 11 . The Lessee shall not locate or permit the location
or erection of any poles upon the Premises, nor any beams, pipes,
wires, structures or other obstruction over or under any tracks of
the Lessor without the written consent of the Lessor.
Liability of Lessee
for Breach Section 12. The Lessee shall be liable for and shall defend
against any and all injury or death of persons or loss of or damage
to property, of whatsoever nature or kind, arising out of or con-
tributed to by any breach in whole or in part of any covenant of
this Lease.
Fire Damage
Release Section 13. It is understood by the parties hereto that the
Premises are in dangerous proximity to the tracks of the Lessor,
and that by reason thereof there will be constant danger of injury
and damage by fire, and the Lessee accepts this Lease subject to
such danger.
It is therefore agreed, as one of the material considerations
for this Lease and without which the same would not be granted by
the Lessor, that the Lessee assume all risk of loss or destruction of
or damage to buildings or contents on the Premises, and of or to
other property brought thereon by the Lessee or by any other per-
son with the knowledge or consent of the Lessee, and of or to
property in proximity to the Premises when connected with or inci-
dental to the occupation thereof, and any incidental loss or injury
to the business of the Lessee, where such loss, damage, destruc-
tion, injury, or death of persons is occasioned by fire caused by,
or resulting from, the operation of the railroad of the Lessor,
whether such fire be the result of defective engines, or of negli-
gence on the part of the Lessor or of negligence or misconduct on
the part of any officer, servant or employee of the Lessor, or oth-
erwise, and the Lessee hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harm-
less and defend the Lessor, its officers, servants, and/or
employees, against and from all liability, causes of action, claims,
or demands which any person may hereafter asset, have, claim, or
claim to have, arising out of or by reason of any such loss, dam-
age, destruction, injury, or death of persons including any claim,
cause of action or demand which any insurer of such buildings or
other property may at any time assert, or undertake to assert,
against the Lessor, its officers, servants and/or employees.
Water Damage
Release Section 14. The Lessee hereby releases the Lessor, its
officers, servants, and/or employees, from all liability for damage
by water to the Premises or to property thereon belonging to or in
the custody or control of the Lessee, including buildings and con-
tents, regardless of whether such damage be caused or contributed
by the position, location, construction or condition of the railroad,
roadbed, tracks, bridges, dikes, ditches or other structures of the
Lessor.

Termination on
Default Section 15. It is further agreed that the breach of any
covenant, stipulation or condition herein contained to be kept and
performed by the Lessee, shall, at the option of the Lessor, forth-
with work a termination of this Lease, and all rights of the Lessee
hereunder; that no notice of such termination or declaration of for-
feiture shall be required, and the Lessor may at once re-enter upon
the Premises and repossess itself thereof and remove all persons
therefrom or may resort to an action of forcible/unlawful entry and
detainer, or any other action to recover the same. A waiver by
the Lessor of the breach by the Lessee of any covenant or condi-
tion of this Lease shall not impair the right of the Lessor to avail
itself of any subsequent breach thereof.
Termination by
Notice Section 16. This Lease may be terminated by written notice
given by either the Lessor or the Lessee to the other party on any
date in such notice stated, not less, however, than thirty (30)
days subsequent to the date on which such notice shall be given.
Said notice may be given to the Lessee by serving the Lessee per-
sonally or by posting a copy thereof on the outside of any door in
any building upon the Premises or by mailing the same, postage
prepaid, to the Lessee at the last address known to the Lessor.
Said notice may be given to the Lessor by mailing the same, postage
prepaid to the office of the Director of Real Estate, Room 306,
1416 Dodge Street, Omaha, Nebraska, 68179. Upon such termina-
tion and vacation of the Premises by the Lessee, the Lessor shall
refund to the Lessee on a prorata basis, any unearned rental paid
in advance.
Vacation of Premises
Removal of Lessee's
Property Section 17. The Lessee covenants and agrees to vacate and
surrender the quiet and peaceable possession of the Premises upon
the termination of this Lease howsoever. No later than the expira-
tion or termination date of this Lease, the Lessee shall (a) remove
from the Premises, at the expense of the Lessee, all structures and
other property not belonging to the Lessor; and (b) restore the
surface of the ground to as good condition as the same was in be-
fore such structures were erected, including, without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the removal of foundations of such
structures, the filling in of all excavations and pits and the removal
of all debris and rubbish, all at the Lessee's expense, failing in
which the Lessor may perform the work and the Lessee shall reim-
burse the Lessor for the cost thereof within thirty (30) days after
bill rendered.
In the case of the Lessee's failure to remove such structures
and other property, the same, at the option of the Lessor, shall
upon the expiration of thirty (30) days after the termination of this
Lease, become and thereafter remain the property of the Les-
sor; and if within one (1) year after the expiration of such
thirty-day period the Lessor elects to and does remove, or cause to
7
be removed, said structures and other property from the Premises
and the market value thereof or of the material therefrom on remov-
al does not equal the cost of such removal plus the cost of restor-
ing the surface of the ground as aforesaid, then the Lessee shall
reimburse the Lessor for the deficit within thirty (30) days after
bill rendered.
Successors

Lease shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties
hereto and their heirs, executors, administrators, successors and
assigns.

cial fertilizer are needed for top yields.
Most nonirrigated areas are used for small grain. The
soil is summer fallowed in alternate years. Winter wheat
is the principal crop. If the crop is winterkilled, spring
wheat can be seeded. Generally precipitation is too low
for beneficial use of fertilizer.
Such practices as stubble mulch farming, striperopping,
and minimum tillage are needed to control soil blowing
and water erosion.
The potential native vegetation is dominated by blue
grama. Several mid grasses, such as western wheatgrass
and needleandthread, are also present. Potential produc-
tion ranges from 1,600 pounds per acre in favorable years
to 1,000 pounds in unfavorable years. As range condition
deteriorates, the mid grasses decrease; blue grama, buf-
falograss, snakeweed, yucca, and fringed sage increase;
and forage production drops. Undesirable weeds and an-
nuals invade the site as range condition becomes poorer.
Management of vegetation on this soil should be based
on taking half and leaving half of the total annual produc-
tion. Seeding is desirable if the range is in poor condition.
Sideoats grama, little bluestem, western wheatgrass, blue
grama, pubescent wheatgrass, and crested wheatgrass are
suitable for seeding, The grass selected should meet the
seasonal requirements of livestock. It can be seeded into
a clean, firm sorghum stubble, or it can be drilled into a
firm prepared seedbed. Seeding early in spring has
proven most successful.
Windbreaks and environmental plantings of trees and
shrubs commonly grown in the area are generally well
suited to this soil. Cultivation to control competing

Dear Ms. Dunn:
Re: Eagle Mine Property, Special Review
We have reviewed the plat, mine site evaluation by McCarty Engineering and
attendant information for the proposed rail and track material sorting facility.
It is our understanding that two trailers will be located on the property and no
permanent structures will be built.
Subsidence of the Eagle Mine (closed 1976) is a possibility at the property.
Additionally, it appears that an air shaft (north side of the railroad spur)
and the Eagle Mine hoist shaft (south side of the railroad spur) are located in
the lease area. These features should be located and isolated from the operation. L—
The proposed water well on the property may have to be completed through the
mine level and may encounter a significant void. This will require special —
drilling and well completion techniques.
If these recommendations are followed and the applicant is aware of the potential
subsidence hazard, we have no objection to approval of this application.
Sincerely,
au ��tIALlia E. Turney CU
Engineering Geologist

COMMENTS:
Access is to Weld County Road 8, a paved road. Development is proposed to
occur surrounding old Union Pacific rail tracks on the site. The west end
of the parcel (as shown by the shaded area on the plat vicinity map) is the
intended building location for the plant and office.
There is one residence located within 1/4 mile of this property; it appears
to be associated with the salvage operation to the east.1.By: _4

Re: Case Number USR-691:85:35 - The David J. Joseph Company
Dear Ms. Dunn:
The site of the David Joseph Company proposed land development is
on Nunn clay loam soils with slopes from 1-3 percent. This particular
soil type is high in clay content which means that the soil will have
a high shrink-swell potential, water movement will be relatively slow,
and the water holding capacity will be high. These features may limit
certain facilities on this land development.
Building foundations will need extra design consideration because of
the shrink-swell potential. Steel will also corrode quickly because
of the water retention of the profile.
Sewage facilities will also need special attention. Septic tank
absorption fields will not be feasible because of the slow percolation
of the soil. Sewage lagoons also have a few limitations, but they can
be overcome with proper design work.
Thank you for the opportunity to comment on this land development.
If we can be of any further assistance, please feel free to contact us.
Sincerely,
Jack C. Wheeler
President

Dear Ed :
Re: Geologic Hazard Study for Erie, Colorado Property
I have completed my inspection of the above referenced property,
as requested. This letter report contains my findings of the
existing conditions at the property. No subsurface investigations
were performed other than research of existing studies in the
area. This report is not intended to imply that there is no
possibility of ground subsidence in the future, however, the
inspection made at this time showed no visible signs of surface
subsidence that has occurred recently at any location on the
property.
The legal description of the property was supplied to us by your
company and is attached as Exhibit A. This particular piece of
land lies within a severe geologic area, as shown on a map
prepared by the Colorado Geological Survey dated May 10, 1978.
The Eagle Mine lies directly east of the property. This mine is
not listed in the Colorado Inactive Mine Reclamation Plan as
having significant environmental or safety problems. However, it
is mentioned as being the cause of minor subsidence under I-25 at
the Erie exit.
Additional data obtained from the Colorado Geological Survey for
the Eagle Mine includes the following facts:
1. The depth of cover over the mine at the property site is
between 350 feet to 400 feet.
2. The probable thickness of coal extracted beneath the
property site is between 5 feet to 10 feet.
3. The mine pillars under the property site have not been
removed.

I obtained additional information regarding subsidence problems
from the Union Pacific Railroad and was informed by Barry
Truesdell of their Denver office that they have had spotty
subsidence problems under their tracks in this area. The
subsidence they have experienced has been minor in nature.
A visual inspection of the property indicated there has been no
subsidence, with the possible exception of a small depression
directly south of the old railroad spur. There is the possibility
that fill was excavated from this location for building the
railroad spur. I did observe an old drainage structure under the
railroad tracks which indicates that it has been there for a long
period of time. Therefore, this depression, even if it did occur
from subsidence, is very old and has not moved for a considerable
period of time. The possibility does exist for subsidence to
occur at this property sometime in the future. However, due to
the nature of the proposed business to be located at this site,
the occurrence of subsidence should not pose a serious threat to
the operation.
This completes my inspection and report. If any permanent
structures are ever proposed to be located on this site,
additional review will be necessary by a registered professional
engineer. If you have arty questions or need additional
information, please feel free to call.
