Box 326 • Greeley, CO 80632 Subject: Adding five pens with 840' of bunk space to SUP-193, located in the NW/4 of Section 33, T4N, R66W of the 6th P.M., Weld County, Colorado. Dear Mr. Ottenhoff: Thank you for your letter of October 18, 1994. The Department of Planning Service's staff have reviewed your letter along with the Development Standards of SUP-193. Staff has referred this matter to the Weld County Health Department for additional review. Staff has determined that the use as described above is not a major change to the existing SUP-193. However, in the memo from the Weld County Health Department, dated October 26, 1994, Trevor Jiricek states: "if this facility is increasing its physical area by one third of the existing capacity it must submit a Manure and Process Wastewater Management Plan to the Water Quality Control Division of the Colorado Department of Health and Environment." If you have any further questions, please call or write me. Sincerely, • Todd A.

Health DR$Wrtmen COLORADO From Strear Farms Company Feedlot subplot m ne Environmental Protection Division nas recesvea a copy or ueosge u,.,.euuosr s letter of October 18, 1994, in which he indicated the Strear Farms Feedlot intends to expand its surface. The Division only has one concern, it is as follows: The facility must insure that its manure and process wastewater collection, storage and land application facilities are adequately sized to accommodate any additional wastewater generation and flow as well as maintain compliance with the Confined Animal Feeding Operations Control Regulation. It must be noted, that the Confined Animal Feeding Operations Control Regulation (the Regulation) is a self-implementing control regulation which requires no permit as a condition for operation, etc. However, if this facility is increasing its physical area by one third of the existing capacity it must submit a Manure and Process Wastewater Management Plan (The Plan) to the Water quality Control Division (the Division) of the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment. The Plan does not need approval by the Division unless it includes a land application plan pursuant to section 4.8.5 of the Regulation. Any other ' comments (other than on land application portion) from the Division are not considered to be binding on the operator, they are simply input which may help to prevent noncompliance after construction has taken place. Please call me at ext. 2232 if you have any questions. tj\104 PosRIt"Fax Note 7871 Date(1/'y f gcr Ipe1.

BURNS (303) 356-1111 October 18, 1994 Weld County Department of Planning Services 1400 17th Avenue Greeley, CO 80631 Gentlemen: This firm represents David Hunt who is the Lessee and the holder of an option to purchase the Strear Farms Company feedlot in the NA- of Section 33, Township 4 North, Range 66 west. This feedlot is operated under Special Use Permit No. 193 granted in 1973 for a capacity of approximately 4860 head of 1, 000 lb. cattle. Mr. Hunt would like to make certain modifications to the feedlot which will enhance the efficiency of operation, promote the health of the cattle, and reduce environmental concerns. Mr. Hunt's proposal is to spread the cattle out by building 5 new pens with an additional 840 feet of feed bunk space. He is not requesting an increase in the capacity of the feedlot beyond the 4860 head. I am attaching a photocopy of a photograph of the feedlot showing where the additional bunk space and pens would be located. One of the desirable results of the additional bunk space will be to allow all of the cattle to eat at the same time. This will result in less pushing and fighting among the cattle to get to the feed bunks, which in turn will reduce injuries to the cattle and stirring up dust. A second advantage to spreading the cattle out will be reduce the concentration of urine and manure, thus keeping the pens drier and reducing odor and flies. F:1GHO\HUNT\PIANNINO.WC Y � 0• I. Weld County Department of Planning Services October 18, 1994 Page 2 I want to re-emphasize that our client is not requesting an increase in the capacity of this feedlot. He simply wants to be able to operate it more efficiently, to the benefit of everyone concerned. There do not seem to be any disadvantages to adding these corrals, other than the cost to my client. Therefore we request that the Planning Department determine that this proposal is a minor change in the Special Review Permit pursuant to Section 24.9 of the Weld County Zoning Ordinance. Yours very truly, 2EN & OfTENO WRCE GHO/en Enclosure P:\OHO\HUN11PL1NNING.W C i r w r .; `y; t.,Y e.t.). •''•?4 f�tar, .
