Box 758 Greeley, Colorado 80632 Dear Mr. Warden: We are enclosing a copy of the approved indirect cost rate for you to use for the year beginning January 1, 1991. This approved rate is the maximum rate which can be charged to a grant for indirect costs. Individual programs at the Colorado Department of Health may limit the indirect costs charged to certain grants to a rate which is lower than the attached approved rate. Please accept our appreciation for your past cooperation in this project. Sincerely, Ray Campbell Controller RC/ms Enclosures 92062c COLORADO DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH COLORADO LOCAL HEALTH DEPARTMENT INDIRECT COST NEGOTIATION AGREEMENT Local Health Department DATE: November 12, 1990 Weld County Health Department FILING REF: This replaces 151 Central Main Street Negotiation Agreement Pueblo, Colorado 81003-4297 dated December 29, 1989 The indirect cost rate(s) contained herein is for use on grants and contracts with the Colorado Department of Health to which Federal Management Circular 74-4 applies subject to the limitations contained in Section II, A. of this agreement. The rate(s) was negotiated by the Weld County Health Department and the Colorado Department of Health. SECTION I: RATES Effective Period Applicable Type From To Rate* Locations To Fixed: Pblc Hlth Nag 1/1/91 12/31/91 18.37% All All programs Protectve Svc 1/1/91 12/31/91 23.53% All All programs Hlth Educatn 1/1/91 12/31/91 8.00% All All programs Provisional: Pblc Hlth Nsg 1/1/92 Until 18.37% All All programs Amended Environ Hlth 1/1/92 Until 23.53% All All programs Amended Hlth Educatn 1/1/9j. Until 8.00% All All programs Amended Treatment of Fringe Benefits: Fringe benefits applicable to direct salaries and wages are treated as direct costs SECTION II: General 920626 A. LIMITATIONS: Use of the rate(s) contained in this agreement is subject to any statutory or administrative limitations and is applicable to a given grant or contract only to the extent that funds are available. Acceptance of the rate(s) agreed to herein is predicted upon the conditions: (1) that no costs other than those incurred by the grantee/contractor or allocated to the grantee/contractor via an approved Central Service cost allocation plan were incurred in its indirect cost pool as finally accepted and that such incurred costs are legal obligations of the grantee/contractor and allowable under the governing cost principles, (2) that the same costs that have been treated as indirect costs have not been claimed as direct costs, (3) that similar types of costs have been accorded consistent treatment, and (4) that the information provided by the grantee/contractor which was used as a basis for acceptance of the rate(s) agreed to herein is not subsequently found to be materially inaccurate. B. AUDIT: Adjustments to amounts resulting from audit of the cost allocation plan upon which the negotiation of this agreement was based will be compensated for in a subsequent negotiation. C. CHANGES: If a fixed or predetermined rate(s) is contained in this agreement it is based on the organizational structure and the accounting system in effect at the time the proposal was submitted. Changes in the organizational structure or changes in the method of accounting for costs which affect the amount of reimbursement resulting from the use of the rate(s) in this agreement, require the prior approval of the authorized representative of the responsible negotiation agency. Failure to obtain such approval may result in subsequent audit disallowances. D. FIXED RATE(S): The fixed rate(s) contained in this agreement is based on an estimate of the costs which will be incurred during this period for which the rate applies. When the actual costs for such period have been determined, an adjustment will be made in the negotiation following such determination to compensate for the difference between that cost used to establish the fixed rate and that which would have been used were the actual costs known at the time. E. NOTIFICATION TO OTHER LOCAL HEALTH DEPARTMENTS: Copies of this document may be provided to other local health departments if requested by them. F. SPECIAL REMARKS: Colorado Department of Health programs currently reimbursing indirect costs to this Local Health Department by means other than the rate(s) cited in this agreement should be credited for such costs and the applicable rate cited herein applied to the appropriate base to identify the proper amount of indirect costs allocable to the program. 9 .

Several of these systems have experienced, or are currently experiencing problems in meeting water quality standards, primarily with regard to Nitrates. Only short term solutions have been implemented to the present. No long term solutions have been attempted, primarily due to lack of resources within these small municipalities. As far as is known, no information is available regarding land use around these wellheads, and there is no effective regulation of same. One small municipality has implemented an ordinance based primarily on an old watershed protection statute. This ordinance has established a five (5) mile radius around each wellhead. While the intent and the initiative is laudable, the ordinance appears to be weak, and the wellhead zone of five (5) miles seems arbitrary, and obviously not based on scientific method. This again indicates the lack of resources within these municipalities. Never-the-less it is the only attempt to date to address the issue of wellhead protection on a long term basis. OBJECTIVE Establish an effective and efficient Wellhead Protection Program for Weld County, Colorado. This program should address potential sources of contamination within wellhead protection areas, existing water quality problems at particular wellheads, maintenance of existing wellheads, and proper planning and assessment for future wellhead sites. METHODOLOGY A. Identify and prioritize the public water systems in question. 1. Address, telephone number, person in-charge. 2. Utilize local health department sampling data and Colorado Department of Health compliance data to identify those of primary concern, and to prioritize all others. B. Conduct a sanitary survey of the area surrounding each wellhead. 1. Identify potential contamination sources. 2. Geological data 3. Hydrologic data 4. Wellhead data - permit, depth, etc. 5. Land use data 99flr' Wellhead Protection Project Weld County, Colorado Page 2 C. Delineate Wellhead Protection Area for each well site. 1. Establish area 2. Overlay map 3.

We have a very active Water Quality Program in place. Our Environmental Specialist are well trained and experienced in the methods for sanitary survey, environmental assessment, data input, and educational approach. We have a Laboratory as part of the Environmental Protection Division. Our Laboratory also is very active in Water Quality analysis and assessment. We have a Health Education component to our Department. They would be accessible to staff and public during Education Phases. We already have in place, a close working relationship with North Front Range Water Quality Planning Association, and North and Central Weld Water Conservancy Districts. If educational assistance, or further data, or research is necessary, it would be relatively simple to consult with, or contract with these agencies. Finally, we have a close working relationship with Weld County Planning and Zoning. Through our Individual Sewage Disposal System Program and Sludge Permit activities, as well as review and comment to Planning and Zoning on any construction activity in Weld County, we can already control to some degree, what activity is permitted in particular areas. It is expected that with education, continuation of Linkage Agreements and/or an enabling Ordinance, we could eventually incorporate Wellhead Protection into our existing plan review process, at very little, or no increased cost to the tax payer.

Greeley, CO 80631 Dear Mr. Pickle : Thank you for your presentation to our Association Board on the proposal by your agency to develop a wellhead protection program for Weld County. We agree with your premise that communities depending on groundwater supplies for their drinking water should be afforded every possible protection for their wellhead areas from activities which could adversely affect those supplies. The NFRWQPA supports your efforts in proceeding to develop and implement this program. It appears to be a well thought-out approach to begin dealing with the issue of wellhead protection . If there is anything which our association can do to assist Weld County in pursuing this worthwhile endeavor, we would be happy to help. Good luck in your efforts. Sincerely, David F. DuBois Manager, NFRWQPA DFD/jmr 9X62,2. mEmoRAnDum Wi`D e George Kennedy, Chairman To Board of County Commissioners Date July 9, 1992 V COLORADO From Jeannie K.
