least 24 hours between 10:00 p.m. on a Friday and 4:00 a.m. on a Monday. A single
cumulative daytime ambient noise level and a single cumulative nighttime ambient
noise level will be established by taking the logarithmic average of all daytime or
nighttime one (1) -hour Leq values measured and in accordance with the sound level
data collection requirements pursuant to the maximum permissible noise levels found
in Table 435 A.1.
d. Sound levels shall be measured at a distance of 350 feet from the Oil and Gas
Location, at minimum in four (4) directions.

existing occupied structure, sound levels shall be measured at a point twenty-five (25)
feet from the structure towards the Oil and Gas Location.
d. On property owned by the Operator, noise levels shall be measured at three hundred
fifty (350) feet from the Oil and Gas Location, or at the property line, whichever is
greater.
e. In situations where measurement of noise levels at three hundred fifty (350) feet is
unrepresentative or non -attainable due to topography, measurements may be taken
at a more attainable/accessible distance and be extrapolated to a three hundred fifty
(350) foot equivalent using the following formula:
Unknown db(A) = Known db(A) — (20 x log10(d2/d1))
(d2 = standard distance 350 ft & dl = measured distance)
f. thru 2.a. — No change.
b. If the noise source is on the same property as the complainant, db(C) readings will be
taken twenty-five (25) feet from the exterior wall of the residence.
c. If the sound levels exceed the maximum permissible noise levels as defines in Table
435 A.1, the OGED Director shall require the Operator to obtain a low frequency noise
impact analysis by a qualified sound expert, including identification of any reasonable
control measures available to mitigate such low frequency noise impact. Such study
shall be provided to the OGED Director for review and possible action.
d. — No change.
3. Sound level meters shall be equipped with wind screens and shall take readings when the
wind velocity at the time and place of measurement is not more than five (5) miles per
hour.
4. Sound level measurements shall be taken from four (4) to five (5) feet above ground level.
5. Sound levels shall be determined by taking the logarithmic average (LASeq) of minute -
by -minute measurements made over a minimum fifteen (15) minute sample duration.
Compliance will be determined by the highest measured LASeq average calculated and
shall be rounded to the nearest whole number.
6. thru C.1. — No change.
2. If ambient noise levels already exceed the noise thresholds identified in Table 435 A.1,
then during drilling or Completion operations, including Flowback or operations involving
Pipeline or Gas Facility installation or maintenance, use of a Workover rig, or stimulation,
Operators will be considered in compliance, unless at any time their individual noise
contribution, measured pursuant to Sec. 21-5-435.B, increases noise above ambient
levels by greater than five (5) db(C) and five (5) db(A) between 7:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m.,
or three (3) db(C) and three (3) db(A) between 7:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m.
3. If ambient noise levels already exceed the maximum permissible noise thresholds
identified in Table 435 A.1, under no circumstances shall the Production Phase exceed
the ambient noise levels shown on the baseline noise survey.
Amend Sec. 21-5-460. Pits - general and special rules, to read as follows:
A. thru C. — No change.

1. During the Construction Phase or during operations involving Pipeline or Gas Facility
installation or maintenance, use of a Workover rig, or stimulation, Operators must comply
with the following noise levels:
a. For Oil and Gas Locations within the Ag-Rural Planning Area, the OGED Director may
recommend to the Hearing Officer that Operators comply with up to the maximum
permissible noise level for the NL-4 standard depending upon the proximity of Building
Units or High Occupancy Building Units within the 1041 WOGLA Zone.
b. For Oil and Gas Locations within the Near -Urban Planning Area, the OGED Director
may recommend to the Hearing Officer that Operators comply with up to the maximum
permissible noise level for the NL-3 standard depending upon the proximity of Building
Units or High Occupancy Building Units within the 1041 WOGLA Zone.
c. The hearing Officer may require Operators to comply with a lower maximum
permissible noise level in consultation with the Colorado Department of Public Health
and Environment, or Colorado Parks and Wildlife.
2. During the Production Phase, Operators with Oil and Gas Locations in both the Ag-Rural
and Near -Urban Planning Areas shall comply with the maximum permissible noise level
for the NL-1 standard.
3. If any Building Units, High Priority Habitat, or DOAA are located within the 1041 WOGLA
Zone, Operators will provide specific BMPs to show how noise will be mitigated in order
to maintain compliance with approved noise level standards. Sound emitted from all
engines, motors, coolers and other mechanized equipment shall be directed away from
sensitive receptors.
4. Periodic, impulsive or shrill noises will be allowed an additional five (5) dB(A) from the
levels shown in Table A.1. Operators shall use BMPs to limit these types of noises to the
fullest extent possible.
5. If a Building Unit, High Priority Habitat, or DOAA is built or designated after an Oil and Gas
Location is permitted, the Operator shall continue to comply with the standards of this Sec.
21-5-435.A. as permitted.
6. A baseline ambient noise survey by a qualified sound expert may be required when there
are existing industrial or commercial types of activity within the 1041 WOGLA Zone.
a. When required by the OGED Director, the Operator will conduct background ambient
noise surveys to establish baseline conditions for noise levels on the site, for both A -
scale and C -scale noise.
b. When required, the 1041 WOGLA Permit will include a condition of approval requiring
the Operator to conduct the background ambient noise survey not more than ninety
(90) days nor less than thirty (30) days prior to the Construction Phase. Such survey
results shall be submitted to the OGED Director for review and possible action. If
necessary, the noise mitigation plan shall be updated accordingly based on the survey
results and submitted to the OGED Director for approval via the 1041 WOGLA Sundry
Form.
c. When an Operator conducts a background ambient survey the Operator will follow the
same approach as outlined in Sec. 21-5-435.B. and over a 72 -hour period, including
at least 24 -hours between 10:00 p.m. on a Friday and 4:00 a.m. on a Monday. A single
cumulative daytime ambient noise level and a single cumulative nighttime ambient
noise level will be established by taking the logarithmic average of all daytime or
nighttime 1 -hour Leq values measured and in accordance with the sound level data
collection requirements pursuant to the maximum permissible noise levels found in
Table A.1.
d. Sound levels shall be measured at a distance of 350 feet from the Oil and Gas
Location, at minimum in four directions.
B. To demonstrate compliance with the standards set forth in this Sec. 21-5-435.A. sound levels
shall be measured according to the following standards:
1. Pursuant to an A -scale complaint:
a. Sound levels shall be measured at a distance of 350 feet from the Oil and Gas
Location, in the direction of the complainant.
b. At the request of the complainant or OGED Director, sound levels may be measured
at a point beyond 350 feet that the complainant or OGED Director believes is more
representative of the noise impact.
c. If an Oil and Gas Location is located closer than 350 feet from an existing occupied
structure, sound levels shall be measured at a point 25 feet from the structure towards
the Oil and Gas Location.
d. On property owned by the Operator, noise levels shall be measured at 350 feet from
the Oil and Gas Location, or at the property line, whichever is greater.
e. In situations where measurement of noise levels at 350 feet is unrepresentative due
to topography, measurements may be taken at a lesser distance and be extrapolated
to a 350 -foot equivalent using the following formula:
Unknown db(A) = Known db(A) — (20 x log10(d2/d1))
(d2 = standard distance 350 ft & dl = measured distance)
f. If a baseline noise survey has been conducted, the overall Leq within the closest
direction of the complainant will be utilized to determine compliance.
2. Pursuant to a C -scale complaint:
a. In situations where the complaint or onsite inspection indicates that low frequency
noise is a component of the problem, sound level measurements shall be taken
twenty-five (25) feet from the exterior wall of the complainant's residence or occupied
structure in the direction of the Oil and Gas Location, using a noise meter calibrated
to the db(C) scale.
b. If the noise source is on the same property as the complainant, db(C) readings will be
taken (25) feet from the exterior wall of the residence.
c. If the sound levels exceed the maximum permissible noise levels as defines in Table
A.1, the OGED Director shall require the Operator to obtain a low frequency noise
impact analysis by a qualified sound expert, including identification of any reasonable
control measures available to mitigate such low frequency noise impact. Such study
shall be provided to the OGED Director for review and possible action.
d. If a baseline noise survey has been conducted, the overall Leq within the closest
direction of the complainant will be utilized to determine compliance.
3. Sound level meters shall be equipped with wind screens and shall take readings when the
wind velocity at the time and place of measurement is not more than 5 miles per hour.
4. Sound level measurements shall be taken from 4-5 feet above ground level.
5. Sound levels shall be determined by taking the logarithmic average (LASeq) of averaging
minute -by -minute measurements made over a minimum 15 minute sample duration.
Compliance will be determined by the highest measured LASeq average calculated and
shall be rounded to the nearest whole number.
6. Sound levels shall be taken under conditions that are representative of the noise
experienced by the complainant (e.g., at night, morning, evening, or during special
weather conditions).
C. Cumulative Noise.
1. When required, or in instances when baseline noise surveys have previously been
conducted, noise measurements will take into account ambient noise, rather than solely
the incremental increase of noise from the facility targeted for measurement.
2. If ambient noise levels already exceed the noise thresholds identified in Table A.1, then
during drilling or Completion operations, including Flowback or operations involving
Pipeline or Gas Facility installation or maintenance, use of a Workover rig, or stimulation,
Operators will be considered in compliance, unless at any time their individual noise
contribution, measured pursuant to Sec. 21-5-435.B., increases noise above ambient
levels by greater than 5 db(C) and 5 db(A) between 7:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. or 3 db(C)
and 3 db(A) between 7:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m.
3. If ambient noise levels already exceed the maximum permissible noise thresholds
identified in Table A.1, under no circumstances shall the Production Phase exceed the
ambient noise levels shown on the baseline noise survey.

imperviousness and pervious areas, secondary containment areas may be excluded from the
total site imperviousness and pervious calculations provided that the secondary containment
area is appropriately sized to hold the originally designed safety containment volumes plus
the 100 -year storm rainfall.
B. Detention pond storage volume. In non -urbanizing areas during the Construction Phase,
detention ponds shall be sized to store the stormwater runoff generated by the 1 -hour, 100 -
year storm falling on the developed site and release of the detained water at the historic runoff
rate of the 1 -hour, 10 -year storm falling on the undeveloped site or at 5 cubic feet per second,
whichever is greater. Historic is defined as an undeveloped site (before any development)
with an assumed 2.0% imperviousness maximum. During the Production Phase or in
urbanizing areas, detention ponds shall adhere to Sec. 8-11-100.A.1. of this Code.
C. Detention pond freeboard. During the Construction Phase, less than 1 foot of freeboard may
be allowed on a case -by -case basis. This exception shall be supported by calculations signed
and stamped by a Colorado Licensed Professional Engineer and accepted by the Weld
County Department of Public Works. During the Production Phase, the detention pond shall
adhere to Sec. 8-11-100.A.4. of this Code.
D. Emergency spillway. In order to prevent damage to publicly owned infrastructure (roads,
roadside ditches), a cutoff wall is required on all privately maintained detention ponds and
retention ponds. The cutoff wall permanently defines the emergency spillway opening. The
emergency spillway elevation must be tied back into the top of the embankment using a
maximum slope of 4:1. The cutoff wall must either be constructed of concrete or galvanized
steel sheet pile. Concrete cutoff walls must adhere to Sec. 8-11-100.A.7 of this Code. Steel
sheet pile cutoff walls must be hot dipped galvanized steel of one -quarter (1/4) inches
thickness or three (3) gauge and extend three (3) feet below the bottom of the pond or per
manufacturer's recommendation, whichever is greater. If steel sheet pile is proposed for the
cutoff wall, the native soils must be tested for sulfate levels. If the sulfate levels are above
1.0%, the sheet pile shall be coated with a corrosion resistant epoxy.
E. Retention pond. Retention facilities shall be allowed without a variance only during the
Construction Phase. Retention facilities that are proposed for the Production Phase require
the issuance of a variance requested by the Applicant and accepted by the Weld County
Department of Public Works.
Sec. 21-5-515. Storage of non -essential items.
All Oil and Gas Locations shall be kept free of commercial products, Chemicals, materials and
other supplies not necessary for use on the Oil and Gas Location, and Junk and unused
Commercial Vehicles as those terms are defined in Sec. 23-1-90 of this Code. The burning or
burial of any such material and/or items on the Oil and Gas Location is prohibited.
Sec. 21-5-520. Equipment anchoring requirements.
All equipment at Oil and Gas Locations in geological hazard areas and Floodplains shall be
anchored. Anchors must be engineered to support the equipment and to resist flotation, collapse,
lateral movement, or subsidence, and must comply with all requirements of any necessary
geologic hazard recommendations and/or Flood Hazard Development Permit.
Sec. 21-5-525. Protection of Wildlife Resources.
A. The OGED Director, utilizing the referral from CPW, shall determine whether conditions of
approval are necessary to Minimize Adverse Impacts from the proposed Oil and Gas
Operations in the identified High Priority Habitat. For purposes of this rule, the term "Minimize
Adverse Impacts" shall mean, wherever reasonably practicable, to:
1. Avoid adverse impacts from Oil and Gas Operations on Wildlife Resources;
2. Minimize the extent and severity of those impacts that cannot be avoided;
3. Mitigate the effects of unavoidable remaining impacts;
4. Take into consideration cost-effectiveness and technical feasibility regarding actions taken
and decisions made to Minimize Adverse Impacts to Wildlife Resources; and
5. Follow the Operator's Wildlife Mitigation Plan, if one is required pursuant to Rule 1203 of
the COGCC Rules.
B. In selecting conditions of approval the OGED Director and/or 1041 WOGLA Hearing Officer
shall consider the following factors, among other considerations:
1. The BMPs for the producing geologic basin in which the Oil and Gas Location is situated;
2. Site -specific and species -specific factors of the proposed new Oil and Gas Location;
3. Anticipated direct and indirect effects of the proposed Oil and Gas Location on Wildlife
Resources;
4. The extent to which conditions of approval will promote the use of existing facilities and
reduction of new surface disturbance;
5. The extent to which legally accessible, technologically feasible, and economically
practicable alternative sites exist for the proposed new Oil and Gas Location;
6. The extent to which the proposed Oil and Gas Operations will use technology and
practices which are protective of the environment and Wildlife Resources;
7. The extent to which the proposed Oil and Gas Location minimizes surface disturbance
and habitat fragmentation;
8. The extent to which the proposed Oil and Gas Location is within land used for residential,
industrial, commercial, agricultural, or other purposes, and the existing disturbance
associated with such use.
Sec. 21-5-530. Other general operating requirements regarding wildlife protection.
Subject to exception by the OGED Director for site specific reasons and BMPs, the operating
requirements identified below shall apply in all areas.
A. To Minimize Adverse Impacts to Wildlife Resources, Operators shall plan new transportation
networks and new oil and gas facilities to minimize surface disturbance and the number and
length of oil and gas roads and utilize common roads, rights of way, and access points to the
extent practicable, consistent with these rules, an Operator's operational requirements, and
any requirements imposed by federal and state land management agencies, Weld County's
regulations, and SUAs and other Surface Owner requirements, and taking into account cost
effectiveness and technical feasibility.
B. Establish new staging, refueling, and Chemical storage areas outside of riparian zones and
Floodplains.
C. Use minimum practical construction widths for new rights -of -way where Pipelines cross
riparian areas, streams, and critical habitats.
Sec. 21-5-535. Requirements in High Priority Habitats.
An Operator of an Oil and Gas Location within a High Priority Habitat shall follow the
Operator's Wildlife Mitigation Plan, if one is required pursuant to Rule 1203 of the COGCC Rules.
Sec. 21-5-540. General operating requirements in High Priority Habitats.
A. Subject to exception by the OGED Director for site specific reasons and BMPs, within High
Priority Habitat and Restricted Surface Occupancy Areas, Operators shall comply with the
following operating requirements:
1. During Pipeline construction for trenches that are left open for more than five (5) days and
are greater than five (5) feet in width, install wildlife crossovers and escape ramps where
the trench crosses well-defined game trails and at a minimum of one quarter (1/4) mile
intervals where the trench parallels well-defined game trails.
2. Inform and educate employees and contractors on wildlife conservation practices,
including no harassment or feeding of wildlife.
3. Consolidate new facilities to minimize impact to wildlife.
4. Minimize rig mobilization and demobilization where practicable by completing or
recompleting all Wells from a given Well pad before moving rigs to a new location.
5. To the extent practicable, share and consolidate new corridors for Pipeline rights -of -way
and roads to minimize surface disturbance.
6. Engineer new Pipelines to reduce field fitting and reduce excessive right-of-way widths
and Reclamation.
7. Use boring instead of trenching across perennial streams considered critical fish habitat.
8. Treat any Pits, Freshwater Pits or open vessels containing water that provides a medium
for breeding mosquitoes with Bti (Bacillus thuringiensis v. israelensis) or take other
effective action to control mosquito larvae that may spread West Nile Virus to wildlife,
especially grouse.
9. Use wildlife appropriate seed mixes wherever allowed by Surface Owners and regulatory
agencies.
10. Mow or brush hog vegetation where appropriate, leaving root structure intact, instead of
scraping the surface, where allowed by the Surface Owner.
11. Limit access to oil and gas access roads where approved by Surface Owners, surface
managing agencies, or Local Government, as appropriate.
12. Post interior speed limits and caution signs to the extent allowed by Surface Owners, as

acceptable to the Surface Owner.
15. Use remote monitoring of Well production to the extent practicable.
16. Reduce traffic associated with transporting fluids through the use of Pipelines, large
Tanks, or other measures where technically feasible and economically practicable.
Sec. 21-5-545. General Reclamation requirements.
A. Surface restoration. The surface of the land shall be restored as nearly as practicable to its
condition at the commencement of drilling operations, including topsoil restoration and
protection.
B. Surface Owner Reclamation release form. The Surface Owner has the right to waive
Reclamation requirements set forth in Sections 21-5-545, 21-5-555, and 21-5-560 of this
Article V, unless such Reclamation is deemed necessary to protect public health, safety and
welfare, environment and wildlife of Weld County, as determined by the OGED Director.
Sec. 21-5-550. Site preparation and stabilization.
A. Soil removal and segregation.
1. Soil removal and segregation on Crop Land. As to all excavation operations undertaken
on Crop Land, the Operator shall separate and store soil horizons separately from one
another and mark or document stockpile locations to facilitate subsequent Reclamation.
When separating soil horizons, the Operator shall segregate horizons based upon noted
changes in physical characteristics such as organic content, color, texture, density, or
consistency. Segregation will be performed to the extent practicable to a depth of six (6)
feet or bedrock, whichever is shallower.
2. Soil removal and segregation on non -cropland. As to all excavation operations undertaken
on Non -Crop Land, the Operator shall separate and store the topsoil horizon or the top six
(6) inches, whichever is deeper, and mark or document stockpile locations to facilitate
subsequent Reclamation. When separating the soil horizons, the Operator shall segregate
the horizon based upon noted changes in physical characteristics such as organic content,
color, texture, density, or consistency.
3. Horizons too rocky or too thin. When the soil horizons are too rocky or too thin for the
Operator to practicably segregate, then the topsoil shall be segregated to the extent
practicable and stored. Too rocky shall mean that the soil horizon consists of greater than
thirty five percent (35%) by volume rock fragments larger than ten (10) inches in diameter.
Too thin shall mean soil horizons that are less than six (6) inches in thickness. The
Operator shall segregate remaining soils on Crop Land to the extent practicable to a depth
of three (3) feet below the ground surface or bedrock, whichever is shallower, based upon
noted changes in physical characteristics such as color, texture, density or consistency
and such soils shall be stockpiled to avoid loss and mixing with other soils.
B. Protection of soils. All stockpiled soils shall be protected from degradation due to
contamination, compaction and, to the extent practicable, from wind and water erosion during
drilling and production operations. BMPs to prevent weed establishment and to maintain soil
microbial activity shall be implemented.
C. Drill pad location. The drilling location shall be designed and constructed to provide a safe
working area while reasonably minimizing the total surface area disturbed. Consistent with
applicable spacing orders and Well location orders and regulations, in locating drill pads, steep
slopes shall be avoided when reasonably possible. The drill pad site shall be located on the
most level location obtainable that will accommodate the intended Use. If not avoidable, deep
vertical cuts and steep long fill slopes shall be constructed to the least percent slope practical.
Where feasible, Operators shall use horizontal drilling to reduce cumulative impacts and
Minimize Adverse Impacts on Wildlife Resources.
D. Surface disturbance minimization.
1. In order to reasonably minimize land disturbances and facilitate future Reclamation, Well
Sites, Production Facilities, gathering Pipelines, and access roads shall be located,
adequately sized, constructed, and maintained so as to reasonably control dust and
Minimize Erosion, alteration of natural features, removal of surface materials, and
degradation due to contamination.
2. Operators shall avoid or Minimize Adverse Impacts to wetlands and riparian habitats to
the degree practicable.
3. Where practicable, Operators shall consolidate facilities and Pipeline rights -of -way to
Minimize Adverse Impacts to Wildlife Resources, including fragmentation of wildlife
habitat, as well as cumulative impacts.
4. Access roads. Existing roads shall be used to the greatest extent practicable to Minimize
Erosion and minimize the land area devoted to Oil and Gas Operations. Roadbeds shall
be engineered to avoid or Minimize Adverse Impacts to riparian areas or wetlands to the
extent practicable. Unavoidable impacts shall be mitigated. Road crossings of streams
shall be designed and constructed to allow fish passage, where practicable and
appropriate. Where feasible and practicable, Operators are encouraged to share access
roads in developing a Field. Where feasible and practicable, roads shall be routed to
complement other Land Usage. To the greatest extent practicable, all vehicles used by
the Operator, contractors, and other parties associated with the Well shall not travel
outside of the original access road boundary. Repeated or flagrant instance(s) of failure
to restrict lease access to lease roads which result in unreasonable land damage or crop
losses shall subject the 1041 WOGLA Permit to suspension or revocation by the 1041
WOGLA Hearing Officer pursuant to Sec. 21-5-370.
Sec. 21-5-555. Interim Reclamation.
A. General. Debris and waste materials other than de minimis amounts, including, but not limited
to, concrete, sack bentonite and other drilling mud additives, sand plastic, pipe and cable, as
well as equipment associated with the drilling, re-entry, or Completion operations shall be
removed. All waste shall be handled according to Sec. 21-5-450 of this Article V. All
Freshwater or Production Ponds, cellars, rat holes, and other bore holes unnecessary for
further Oil and Gas Operations, will be backfilled as soon as possible after the drilling rig is
released to conform with surrounding terrain. On Crop Land, if requested by the Surface
Owner, guy line anchors shall be removed as soon as reasonably possible after the
Completion rig is released. When permanent guy line anchors are installed, it shall not be
mandatory to remove them. When permanent guy line anchors are installed on Crop Land,
care shall be taken to minimize disruption or cultivation, irrigation, or harvesting operations. If
requested by the Surface Owner the anchors shall be specifically marked, in addition to the
marking required below, to facilitate farming operations. All guy line anchors left buried for
future use shall be identified by a marker of bright color not less than four (4) feet in height
and not greater than one (1) foot east of the guy line anchor.
B. Interim Reclamation of areas no longer in use. All disturbed areas affected by drilling or
subsequent operations, except areas reasonably needed for production operations or for
subsequent drilling operations to be commenced within twelve (12) months, shall be reclaimed
as early and as nearly as practicable to their original condition or their final Land Use as
designated by the Surface Owner and shall be maintained to control dust and Minimize
Erosion to the extent practicable. As to Crop Lands, if subsidence occurs in such areas
additional topsoil shall be added to the depression and the land shall be re -leveled as close
to its original contour as practicable. Interim Reclamation shall occur no later than three (3)
months on Crop Land or six (6) months on Non -Crop Land after such operations. The
Operator may submit a 1041 WOGLA Sundry Form to the OGED Director requesting an
extension due to conditions outside the Operator's control. Areas reasonably needed for
production operations or for subsequent drilling operations to be commenced within twelve
(12) months shall be compacted, covered, paved, or otherwise stabilized and maintained in
such a way as to minimize dust and erosion to the extent practicable.
C. Compaction alleviation. All areas compacted by drilling and subsequent Oil and Gas
Operations which are no longer needed following completion of such operations shall be
cross -ripped. On Crop Land, such compaction alleviation operations shall be undertaken
when the soil moisture at the time of ripping is below thirty-five percent (35%) of field capacity.
Ripping shall be undertaken to a depth of eighteen (18) inches unless and to the extent bed
rock is encountered at a shallower depth.
D. Restoration and revegetation. When a Well is completed for production, all disturbed areas
no longer needed will be restored and revegetated as soon as practicable.
1. Revegetation of Crop Lands. All segregated soil horizons removed from Crop Lands shall
be replaced to their original relative positions and contour and shall be tilled adequately to
re-establish a proper seedbed. The area shall be treated if necessary and practicable to
prevent invasion of undesirable species and noxious weeds, and to Minimize Erosion. Any
perennial forage crops that were present before disturbance shall be re-established, if
acceptable to the Surface Owner.
2. Revegetation of Non -Crop Lands. All segregated soil horizons removed from Non -Crop
Lands shall be replaced to their original relative positions and contour as near as
practicable to achieve erosion control and long-term stability and shall be tilled adequately
to establish a proper seedbed. The disturbed area then shall be reseeded in the first
favorable season following rig demobilization. Reseeding with species consistent with the
adjacent plant community is encouraged. In the absence of an agreement between the
Operator and the affected Surface Owner as to what seed mix should be used, the
Operator shall consult with a representative of the local soil conservation district to
determine the proper seed mix to use in revegetating the disturbed area. In an area where
an Operator has drilled or plans to drill multiple Wells, in the absence of an agreement
between the Operator and the affected Surface Owner, the Operator may rely upon
previous advice given by the local soil conservation district in determining the proper seed
mixes to be used in revegetating each type of terrain upon which operations are to be
conducted. Interim Reclamation of all disturbed areas no longer in use shall be considered
complete when all ground surface disturbing activities at the site have been completed,
and all disturbed areas have been either built on, compacted, covered, paved, or
otherwise stabilized in such a way as to Minimize Erosion to the extent practicable, or a
uniform vegetative cover has been established that reflects pre -disturbance or Reference
Area forbs, shrubs, and grasses with total percent plant cover of at least eighty percent
(80%) of pre -disturbance levels or Reference Areas, excluding noxious weeds. Re-
seeding alone is insufficient.
3. Interim Reclamation completion. The Operator shall notify the OGED Director via the 1041
WOGLA Sundry Form with a description of the interim Reclamation -procedures and any
associated mitigation measures performed, any changes, if applicable in the landowner's
designated final Land Use, and at a minimum four (4) color photographs taken during the
growing season of vegetation, one (1) from each cardinal direction which document the
success of the interim Reclamation and one (1) color photograph which documents the
total cover of live perennial vegetation of adjacent or nearby undisturbed land or the
Reference Area. Each photograph shall be identified by date taken location name, GPS
location, and direction of view.
4. Temporary Access Permits. If a temporary access permit is associated with a drill site, the
temporary access will be reclaimed in accordance with Chapter 8, Article XIV of this Code.
5. Weed control. All areas being reclaimed shall be kept as free of weeds as practicable.
Weed control measures shall be conducted in consultation with the Weld County Weed
Management Specialist. It is the responsibility of the Operator to monitor reclaimed lands
for noxious weed infestations. If necessary, the OGED Director may require a weed control
plan.
Sec. 21-5-560. Final Reclamation.
A. Well Sites, associated Production Facilities, and access roads. Upon the Plugging and
Abandonment of a Well, all Freshwater Pits or Production Pits, mouse and rat holes and
cellars shall be backfilled. All debris, abandoned Gathering Line Risers and Flowline Risers,
and surface equipment shall be removed within three (3) months of plugging a Well. All access
roads to Plugged and Abandoned Wells and associated Production Facilities shall be closed,
graded and recontoured. Culverts and any other obstructions that were part of the access
road(s) shall be removed. Well locations, access roads and associated facilities shall be
reclaimed. As applicable, compaction alleviation, restoration, and revegetation of Well Sites,
associated Production Facilities, and access roads shall be performed to the same standards
as established for interim Reclamation under Sec. 21-5-555, above. All other equipment,
supplies, weeds, rubbish, and other waste material shall be removed. The burning or burial of
such material on the premises shall be performed in accordance with applicable local, state,
or federal Solid Waste Disposal regulations. In addition, material may be burned or buried on
the premises only with the prior written consent of the Surface Owner. All such Reclamation
work shall be completed within three (3) months on Crop Land and twelve (12) months on
Non -Crop Land after plugging a Well or final closure of associated Production Facilities. The
OGED Director may grant an extension where unforeseen circumstances are encountered,
but every reasonable effort shall be made to complete Reclamation before the next local
growing season. Such request shall be made in writing to the OGED Director via the 1041
Sundry Form.
B. Final Reclamation threshold for approval and release. Successful Reclamation of the Well
Site, associated Production Facilities, and access road means:
1. On Crop Land, Reclamation has been performed to the standards established under Sec.
21-5-555 and there has been no significant unrestored subsidence over two growing
seasons.
2. On Non -Crop Land, Reclamation has been performed to the standards established under
Sec. 21-5-555 and disturbed areas have been either built on, compacted, covered, paved,
or otherwise stabilized in such a way as to Minimize Erosion to the extent practicable, or
a uniform vegetative cover has been established that reflects pre -disturbance or
Reference Area forbs, shrubs, and grasses with total percent plant cover of at least eighty
percent (80%) of pre -disturbance levels or Reference Areas, excluding noxious weeds.
The Operator shall consider the total cover of live perennial vegetation of Reference Area,
not including overstory or tree canopy cover, having similar soils, slope and aspect of the
reclaimed area.
3. Disturbances resulting from Flowline installations and/or removal shall be deemed
adequately reclaimed when the disturbed area is reasonably capable of supporting the
pre -disturbance Land Use.
C. Final Reclamation of all disturbed areas shall be considered complete when all activities
disturbing the ground have been completed, and all disturbed areas have been either built
upon, compacted, covered, paved, or otherwise stabilized in such a way as to Minimize
Erosion, or a uniform vegetative cover has been established that reflects pre -disturbance or
Reference Area forbs, shrubs, and grasses with total percent plant cover of at least eighty
percent (80%) of pre -disturbance levels or Reference Areas, excluding noxious weeds, or
equivalent permanent, physical erosion reduction methods have been employed. Re -seeding
alone is insufficient.
D. Weed control. All areas being reclaimed shall be kept as free of weeds as practicable. Weed
control measures shall be conducted in consultation with the Weld County Weed Management
Specialist. It is the responsibility of the Operator to monitor reclaimed lands for noxious weed
infestations. If necessary, the OGED Director may require a weed control plan.
E. Final Reclamation completion. The Operator shall notify the OGED Director via the 1041
WOGLA Sundry Form with a description of the final Reclamation —procedures and any
associated mitigation measures performed, any changes, if applicable in the landowner's
designated final Land Use. The Operator shall attach the following:
1. If located on Crop Land a minimum of four (4) color photographs one (1) from each
cardinal direction taken during both the growing and non -growing season, which document
the success of the final Reclamation. If located on Non -Crop Land a minimum of four (4)
color photographs one (1) from each cardinal direction taken during the growing season
of vegetation and one (1) color photograph which documents the total cover of live
perennial vegetation of adjacent or nearby undisturbed land or the Reference Area. Each
photograph shall be identified by date taken, location name, GPS location, and direction
of view.
2. Where necessary, the Operator shall submit to the OGED Director a Surface Owner
Reclamation release form if the Surface Owner wishes to have areas un-reclaimed or
items left on location. The OGED Director shall review the request and determine if
Reclamation will be necessary to protect public health, safety and welfare, environment
and wildlife of Weld County pursuant to sec 21-5-545.B. Upon the OGED Director's
approval, the Surface Owner Reclamation release form shall be placed of record with the
Weld County Clerk and Recorder.
3. The OGED Director shall complete a review of the submittal and when necessary, perform
an on -site inspection. If the OGED Director determines that there are no outstanding
compliance issues associated with the location the final Reclamation shall be deemed
complete and approved. The Operator shall then be released of any further obligations on
the location. If the OGED Director determines Reclamation efforts to be insufficient or
incomplete the Operator will be notified in writing of such findings. Approval by the OGED
Director is required for an Operator to be released of obligations on the location.
F. Failure to comply with any of these final Reclamation standards may result in the OGED
Director setting a suspension or revocation hearing before the Hearing Officer.
Sec. 21-5-570. Variances.
An Operator may seek, with good cause shown, a variance to any rule or regulation found in
Chapter 21, Article V of this Code. A variance request shall be submitted in writing to the OGED
Director as part of the 1041 WOGLA Permit Application or Sundry Form. Should an Operator
seek variance to an order issued by the 1041 WOGLA Hearing Officer, a subsequent hearing may
be required for the Hearing Officer to grant a variance. The Operator requesting a variance must
show that it has made a good faith effort to comply or is unable to comply with the specific
requirements contained in these 1041 WOGLA Regulations or the 1041 WOGLA Permit from
which it seeks a variance. The Operator must also demonstrate through mitigation measures that
the requested variance shall Minimize Adverse Impacts to public health, safety, welfare, and
environment including Wildlife Resources.
