Notice of a Proposed Project or Activity Warranting Public
Comment
Website Title: PDC Energy, Inc. - Becker Ranch 5MRU Pads 3 Et 4 - Weld County
Notice Period Begins: March 1, 2023
Notice is hereby given that an application for a proposed project or activity has been submitted to the
Colorado Air Pollution Control Division for the following source of air pollution:
Applicant: PDC Energy, Inc.
Facility: Becker Ranch 5MRU Pads 3 a 4
Well Production Facility
NENE of Section 5, Township 3N, Range 64W
Weld County
The proposed project or activity is as follows: The operator is requesting to modify the condensate storage
vessels and hydrocarbon liquid loadout at an existing well production facility located in the severe ozone
nonattainment area. With this application, the operator is requesting to cancel existing general permit
coverage for both sources and obtain traditional permits. Additionally, the throughput for the condensate
storage vessels is being increased. Finally, the throughput for the loadout is being decreased and emissions
from this source are now controlled using vapor balance and enclosed combustors.
The Division has determined that this permitting action is subject to public comment per Colorado
Regulation No. 3, Part B, Section III.C due to the following reason(s):
• the source is requesting a federally enforceable limit on the potential to emit in order to avoid other
requirements
The Division has made a preliminary determination of approval of the application.
A copy of the application, the Division's analysis, and a draft of Construction Permit 22WE0377 Et 22WE0378
are available on the Division's website at https://www.colorado.gov/cdphe/air-permit-public-notices
