I season grasses wi I I actively grow in the spring and for a short period in the fall . They will I i ke l y be dormant in the summer . Warm season grasses will be actively growing in the middle of the summer- . A mixture of grasses will improve the quality of the pasture and extend the period of active growth and nitrogen uptake. The objective of the cool season mix is to optimize the nitrogen uptake by growing grasses in the spring and fa I I . Warm Season grasses are included in the seeding mix for the smoothed areas to compensate for their remova l by the smoothing operations. Pivot 1 is being designated as an exper- irnehta l site for waste application. Variables which can be monitored include : 1 ) type of vegetation ( cool season grasses , warm season grasses , legumes ) , 2) grass/ legume species in the seeding mix , 3) seeding methods ( Interseeder, chisel planter , drill , etc . ) and techniques (depth, speed , etc_ . ) , ; and 4) brush control ( chemical , mechanical ) , 5) seeding dates ( fall , spring) , 6) seeding into cover crop and/or mulching , etc . Measurements can be made for checking stand establishment , % ground cover , rate of growth , rate of nitrogen : uptake , stand survival ( longevity) , etc . 960423 U.S. Department of Agri ture • C:FA6:_:.DC+C:(Hal Soil Conservation Service Page 7 of 9 RECORD OF COOPERATORS'S DECISIONS AND PROGRESS TN APPLICATION OPERATOR: National H':'g Farms , Inc .

County Commissioners 1 . 0. Box 758 iuN a,Y 79JI Greeley, Colorado 80632WE1Q COUNTY NfAii� DEPT. Dear Mr. Lacy: This letter will serve as a formal reply to your letter to Bill Haw dated June 10 , 1991 . National Hog Farms intends to establish and have in operation four new 120 acre center pivot systems on Sections 15 and 16 Township 6 Range 62 by or before July 15 , 1991 . In addition, we intend to have established and in operation by or before September 1 , 1991 , three new 170 acre pivot systems on Sections 20 and 21 Township 6 Range 62 . These 990 additional acres , as well as another 280 acres already under pivot systems which require replanting, will be sown with a rye/bromegrass combination and put to use during the Fall and Winter of 1991 . The piping system for these new pivots will be sized to allow for additional acreages in the future should they become necessary. I spoke with Wes Potter by telephone yesterday morning. In addition to clarifying some communications procedures , we spent quite some time discussing these matters . It is my understanding that Mister Potter viewed these steps in a positive manner. National Hog Farms shares the Weld County Board of Commissioners' commitment to promotion of agricultural development as well as protection of the county's residents' quality of life. We agree with Weld County Health that these acreage additions are necessary and indicated by our monitoring data. You have our assurance that if our data indicate further modifications are necessary, we will make such changes beyond those outlined in this letter.

Wes Potter, Director Weld County Department of Health 1517 16th Avenue Court Greeley, Colorado 80631 Dear Wes : This letter will serve as a follow-up to our June 26 meeting. At this meeting, our discussion centered on three topics : 1 . You asked that I provide some projected nutrient application rates after the new acreages come on stream. I have provided these in tabular form along with 1990 and 1991 figures . 2 . We agreed that five new monitoring wells should be installed as soon as possible. These will be located in Sections 15 , 20 and 21 all in Township 5 North, Range 62 West . 3 . We also will include the site for Pivot 29 in our application study already underway at Pivots 1 , 4, 16 and 20. These new wells and further expansion of our monitoring program will allow us to evaluate the system as we develop it further. This intensified monitoring will give us the necessary information to make whatever adjustments we deem necessary. I will keep you posted on dates for well drilling and pivot construction.

EXPANSION OF DISPOSAL SYSTEMS After our telephone conversation today, I wanted to reiterate National Hog Farms' commitment to expand our disposal systems further If our monitoring program indicates expansion is necessary. The 990 acre expansion going on now will decrease our application rates one-third (from approximately nine inches per acre per year to six Inches per acre per year) . Wes, If you and I decide that our monitoring results Indicate more land Is required, more land will be developed . I will be talking to you in the next week to update you on development of Pivots 23 through 29 .
