In addition, a site inspection was made to view the property where the dairy is proposed. The size of the proposed facility will require it to adhere to Confined Animal Feeding Operation (CAFO) Regulations. There appears to be adequate evidence in the plan that these regulations have been considered in the planning phase. The location of the proposed facility is very rural, and proper consideration of neighboring landowners appears to have been given. Their plan shows substantial efforts to preserve existing prime farm ground. Weld County Extension has no objection to this proposal. If there are any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. Sincerely, 4' i 7✓(4l Keith R. Maxey Extension Agent (Dairy/Youth) Colorado State University.IT.S.Department of Agriculture and Weld County cooperating.

Chester, Planner Re: Case USR-1201 John and Ellen Moser Dairy Operation Parts of Secs. 28 & 29-3N-65W Weld County, CO Dear Ms. Chester: Reference is made to your letter of September 18, 1998 concerning the captioned and the subsequent materials sent to Kaiser-Francis Oil Company ("Kaiser"). This is to advise that Kaiser has an oil and gas leasehold interest in certain depths underlying the outline of the proposed operation in Section 28-3N-65W. Also, Kaiser operates two producing wells in Section 28. Our Moser 22-28 is located in the SE/4 NW/4, less than 500' east of the outline, and our Moser 41-28 is located in the NE/4 NE/4, as shown on your plat attached. This is to advise that Kaiser is opposed to this facility and operation being approved unless sufficient assurances are received that our access and operations will not be affected on the existing wells we operate in Section 28. Further, we request assurances that our rights to develop the leasehold owned by us within the outline will not be restricted, should Kaiser deem it prudent to further develop the area. Kaiser will have a representative present at the November 3 meeting. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter. Please let me know if you have any questions or need to discuss this further.
