Notice of a Proposed Project or Activity Warranting Public
Comment
Website Title: PDC Energy, Inc. - Lincoln State 3-18 Pad - Weld County
Notice Period Begins: September 5, 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: Lincoln State 3-18 Pad
Well Production Facility
NENW Section 18 T6N, R66W
Weld County
The proposed project or activity is as follows: PDC Energy, Inc. submitted a permit application to reduce
the condensate throughput for six (6) 400 barrel fixed roof condensate storage vessels connected via liquid
manifold and two (2) fixed roof produced water storage vessels connected via liquid manifold at an oil and
gas well production facility located in the severe ozone non -attainment area. These vessels receive liquid
from the on -site separators. Emissions from the condensate storage vessels are routed to a sales pipeline
through the use of a Mission GK15 vapor recovery unit (VRU). During VRU downtime, emissions are routed to
four (4) IES 96" enclosed combustors. The VRU has a maximum of 15% annual downtime. Emissions from the
produced water vessels are routed to the same four (4) IES 96" 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.
