Hi Tom less My name is Grant Gerrard. I report to Kate and she asked that I dig into the compressor station you referenced below. Following our research, it's our conclusion that the referenced station was never constructed. At present, we don't operate and compressor station at the location identified on the USR, nor do we intend to build one. We agree that recession would be an appropriate remedy.

The submitted materials are in compliance with the application requirements of Section 23-2-260 of the Weld County Code. It is the opinion of the Board of County Commissioners that the applicant has shown compliance with Section 23-2-230.B of the Weld County Code as follows: A. Section 23-2-230.B.1 -- The proposed use is consistent with Chapter 22 and any other applicable code provisions or ordinance in effect. 1) Section 22-2-20.1 (A Goal 9) states: "Reduce potential conflicts between varying land uses in the conversion of traditional agricultural lands to other land uses. "The site is in a rural area. The nearest residence is located approximately 1.5 miles to the northwest. A proposed oil and gas well pad will be located adjacent to the site.

According to the application materials, the proposed compressor station will provide gas lift injection to wells in the area. The station will allow Bill Barrett Corporation to more efficiently develop existing and planned wells in the area. The proposed use is in an area that can support this development and the existing screening, Conditions of Approval and Development Standards, will assist in mitigating the impacts of the facility on the adjacent properties and ensure compatibility with surrounding land uses and the region. B. Section 23-2-230.B.2 -- The proposed use is consistent with the intent of the A (Agricultural) Zone District. Section 23-3-40.A.2 of the Weld County Code provides for Mineral Resource Development. Section 23-3-10 — Intent states: "The A (Agricultural) Zone District is also intended to provide areas for the conduct of uses by Special Review which have been determined to be more intense or to have a potentially greater impact than uses Allowed by Right."

Mineral resource locations are widespread throughout the County and persons moving into these areas must recognize the various impacts associated with this development. Oftentimes, mineral resource sites are fixed to their geographical and geophysical locations. Moreover, these resources are protected property rights and mineral owners should be afforded the opportunity to extract the mineral resource. 35.
