It is the opinion of the Board of County Commissioners that this proposal does not meet the intent and purpose of Section 24-8-40 of the Weld County Code, as follows: a. Section 24-8-40.C states: "An access is, or can be made, available that provides for safe ingress and egress to a public road. All accesses shall be in accordance with Chapter 12, Article V of this Code, and shall endeavor to achieve the goal of no "net increase" in the number of accesses onto adjacent County roads when accesses already exist." It is the opinion of the Board that any further division of these lots will result in additional traffic along County Road 7 and create an unsafe access location. b. Section 24-8-40.J states: "The proposal is consistent with sound land use planning practices." It is the opinion of the Board that the proposal is not sound land planning. c. Section 24-8-40.M.1 states: "The largest lot of a recorded exemption which was recorded within the last five (5) years. This requirement maybe waived by the Board of County Commissioners if the Board finds that extenuating circumstances experienced by the applicant justify approval of the recorded exemption and that the recorded exemption is not for the purpose of evading the requirements and intent of Chapter 24." It is the opinion of the Board that the applicant was unable to present extenuating circumstances to justify waiving the five (5) year requirement. ca : PL Crnn(TP), GL.PPL lot( -7/let 2019-1461 RECX19-0014 DENY RECX19-0014 - ANADARKO E&P ONSHORE, LLC PAGE 2 NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of County Commissioners of Weld County, Colorado, that the request for Recorded Exemption, RECX19-0014, submitted by Anadarko E&P OnShore, LLC, be, and hereby is, denied.

It is the opinion of the Department of Planning Services staff that the applicant has not shown compliance with the following criteria as listed in Section 24-8-40 of the Weld County Code. Section 24-8-40.M.1 of the Weld County Code, states: "After March 1, 2004, the proposed recorded exemption is eligible for land exemption if it is not part of: The largest lot of a recorded exemption which was recorded within the last five (5) years. This requirement may be waived by the Board of County Commissioners if the Board finds that extenuating circumstances experienced by the applicant justify approval of the recorded exemption and that the recorded exemption is not for the purpose of evading the requirements and intent of this Chapter." The proposed recorded exemption will occur within five (5) years of the last Recorded Exemption (RECX17- 0184), recorded February 7, 2018, Reception No. 4373905. This proposal does not meet Weld County Code Section 24-8-40.M.1. The applicant was aware that this Recorded Exemption case would be recommended to the Board of County Commissioners for denial and chose to proceed with the request. They acknowledged the recommendation for denial and request the requirement listed under Section 24-8-40.M.1 be waived. Based on the owners' request letter, their goal is to divide the property so that proposed Lot B may be annexed into the Town of Erie. The annexation documents have been submitted. This proposed Lot B will be included in the Town of Erie Urban Renewal Authority (TOEURA) area. The tax benefits from TOEURA will assist the town to fund future planning projects. Anadarko plans to coordinate the annexation of Lot B into the town following completions of the oil and gas wells. Lot A will remain in incorporated Weld County. 2019-1461 RECX19-0014 Page 1 of 5 RS.cx l9-00 VI Should the Board of County Commissioners approve this request, the Department recommends the following conditions be attached: 1.

Under title 34 of the Colorado Revised Statutes, minerals are vital resources because (a) the State's commercial mineral deposits are essential to the State's economy; (b) the populous counties of the state face a critical shortage of such deposits; and (c) such deposits should be extracted according to a rational plan, calculated to avoid waste of such deposits and cause the least practicable disruption of the ecology and quality of life of the citizens of the populous counties of the state. Mineral resource locations are widespread throughout the County and person moving into these areas must recognize the various impacts associated with this development. Often times, 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. 17) WELD COUNTY'S RIGHT TO FARM STATEMENT: Weld County is one of the most productive agricultural counties in the United States, typically ranking in the top ten counties in the country in total market value of agricultural products sold. The rural areas of Weld County may be open and spacious, but they are intensively used for agriculture. Persons moving into a rural area must recognize and accept there are drawbacks, including conflicts with long-standing agricultural practices and a lower level of services than in town. Along with the drawbacks come the incentives which attract urban dwellers to relocate to rural areas: open views, spaciousness, wildlife, lack of city noise and congestion, and the rural atmosphere and way of life. Without neighboring farms, those features which attract urban dwellers to rural Weld County would quickly be gone forever. Agricultural users of the land should not be expected to change their long-established agricultural practices to accommodate the intrusions of urban users into a rural area. Well -run agricultural activities will generate off -site impacts, including noise from tractors and equipment; slow -moving farm vehicles on rural roads; dust from animal pens, field work, harvest and gravel roads; odor from animal confinement, silage and manure; smoke from ditch burning; flies and mosquitoes; hunting and trapping activities; shooting sports, legal hazing of nuisance wildlife; and the use of pesticides and fertilizers in the fields, including the use of aerial spraying. It is common practice for agricultural producers to utilize an accumulation of agricultural machinery and supplies to assist in their agricultural operations. A concentration of miscellaneous agricultural materials often produces a visual disparity between rural and urban areas of the County. Section 35-3.5-102, C.R.S., provides that an agricultural operation shall not be found to be a public or private nuisance if the agricultural operation alleged to be a nuisance employs methods or practices that are commonly or reasonably associated with agricultural production. RECX19-0014 Page 4 of 5 Water has been, and continues to be, the lifeline for the agricultural community. It is unrealistic to assume that ditches and reservoirs may simply be moved "out of the way" of residential development. When moving to the County, property owners and residents must realize they cannot take water from irrigation ditches, lakes, or other structures, unless they have an adjudicated right to the water. Weld County covers a land area of approximately four thousand (4,000) square miles in size (twice the size of the State of Delaware) with more than three thousand seven hundred (3,700) miles of State and County roads outside of municipalities. The sheer magnitude of the area to be served stretches available resources. Law enforcement is based on responses to complaints more than on patrols of the County, and the distances which must be traveled may delay all emergency responses, including law enforcement, ambulance, and fire. Fire protection is usually provided by volunteers who must leave their jobs and families to respond to emergencies. County gravel roads, no matter how often they are bladed, will not provide the same kind of surface expected from a paved road. Snow removal priorities mean that roads from subdivisions to arterials may not be cleared for several days after a major snowstorm. Services in rural areas, in many cases, will not be equivalent to municipal services. Rural dwellers must, by necessity, be more self-sufficient than urban dwellers. People are exposed to different hazards in the County than in an urban or suburban setting. Farm equipment and oil field equipment, ponds and irrigation ditches, electrical power for pumps and center pivot operations, high speed traffic, sand burs, puncture vines, territorial farm dogs and livestock, and open burning present real threats. Controlling children's activities is important, not only for their safety, but also for the protection of the farmer's livelihood. 4. The plat shall be prepared in accordance with the requirements of Section 24-8-60 of the Weld County Code. The applicant shall submit an electronic copy (PDF) of the plat for preliminary approval to the Department of Planning Services. Upon approval of the plat, the applicant shall submit a Mylar plat along with all other documentation required as conditions of approval. The Mylar plat shall be recorded in the office of the County Clerk and Recorder by the Department of Planning Services. The Mylar plat and additional requirements shall be recorded within sixty (60) days from the date the administrative review was signed. The applicant shall be responsible for paying the recording fee. 5. In accordance with Weld County Code Ordinance 2005-7 approved June 1, 2005, should the plat not be recorded within the required sixty (60) days from the date the Administrative Review was signed a $50.00 recording continuance charge shall added for each additional 3 month period. 6. If the exemption plat has not been recorded within sixty (60) days from the date the administrative review was signed, or Board of County Commissioners resolution, or if an applicant is unwilling or unable to meet any of the conditions within sixty (60) days of approval, the application will be forwarded to the Board of County Commissioners with a staff recommendation for denial. The Director of Planning Services may grant an extension of time, for good cause shown, upon a written request by the applicant.

WHEREAS, Owner desires to annex to the Town the real property described as Lot B in Exhibit A, attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference, consisting of approximately 47 acres and currently located in unincorporated Weld County (the "Property"); WHEREAS, Owner has previously drilled 9 existing oil and gas wells on the Property, as listed on Exhibit B, attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference (the "Existing Wells"); WHEREAS, Owner has submitted a Weld County Oil and Gas Location Assessment Application ("WOGLA") for approval to develop three new well pad sites for 23 oil and gas wells to be located on the Property, as listed in Exhibit C, attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference (each a "New Well" and collectively the "New Wells", and the New Wells and the Existing Wells collectively the "Wells"); WHEREAS, upon the drilling and completion of all Wells, the Parties desire to annex the Property to the Town; WHEREAS, the Property will be located within a TOEURA urban renewal area; and WHEREAS, the Parties desire to agree on certain issues pertaining to the annexation, zoning and development of the Property. NOW THEREFORE, for the consideration hereinafter set forth, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows: 1. General. In accordance with the terms of this Agreement, Owner consents to the annexation of the Property by the Town, which annexation shall be in accordance with the Colorado Municipal Annexation Act of 1965, C.R.S. § 31-12-101, et seq., as amended. The annexation of the Property shall occur after Owner has drilled and completed all Wells (or any substitutes therefor on the Property); provided, however, the Parties agree to take all steps reasonably necessary to complete the annexation of the Property prior to the Wells being placed into production for the selling and marketing of the oil, gas and other hydrocarbons produced by the Wells. 2. Term, Termination and Rescission. a. Term. This Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and terminate without further action of the Parties 3 years thereafter (the "Term"). 1 1/7/2019 Q:USERSIERIEIANADARKO AAWEXATIOMAGR\ANNEX-A010719.DOCX b. Rescission. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, should the Town fail to approve the zoning of the Property as set forth in Section 4 hereof, Owner shall be entitled to rescission of this Agreement without any penalty whatsoever. c. Legal Challenge. If any judicial proceeding or other legal action is brought by a third party, including referendum or initiative, that challenges this Agreement, the annexation of the Property to the Town, the zoning of the Property or any of the Town's resolutions or ordinances approving the annexation of the Property to the Town, this Agreement or the zoning of the Property, this Agreement will remain in full force and effect through and until the 31St day following entry of a final, non -appealable order resolving such legal action, unless earlier terminated or modified by a written amendment signed by all Parties. 3. Annexation Petition. Within 30 days after all of the Wells have been drilled and completed, Owner shall execute and submit to the Town the Annexation Petition, in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit D, attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference. 4. Zoning. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Town, upon annexation of the Property, will zone the Property as Light Industrial (LI), and upon the effective date of the zoning ordinance, the Property will be subject to all applicable provisions of the Erie Municipal Code that are not preempted by state law. The Town will not file or record the annexation ordinance and map as described in C.R.S. § 31-12-113(2) until the ordinance rezoning the Property becomes effective. The Town hereby acknowledges that the zoning of the Property will allow Owner and its corporate affiliates, with appropriate permits as required by other agencies, to operate, maintain, repair, upgrade, workover, and replace the Wells and associated facilities on the Property, including without limitation the installation or replacement of equipment intended to increase production or improve operating efficiencies of the Wells or associated facilities on the Property. 5. Roadway Parcel. Within 30 days of the effective date of the annexation of the Property to the Town, Owner shall convey to the Town, by quitclaim deed, a parcel of land being 40' in width and adjacent to the existing public right-of-way on the western boundary of the Property, for use as a public roadway. 6. Urban Renewal Area Inclusion. Owner hereby consents to the inclusion of the Property in an urban renewal area formed by TOEURA, at any time after the Effective Date. 7. Master Encroachment License. a. The Town and Owner, on behalf of its corporate affiliate Kerr McGee Gathering LLC, hereby agree to the form of Master Encroachment License set forth in Exhibit E, attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference. The Town agrees that this Agreement shall not be effective unless the Master Encroachment License is executed by the Town and Owner's corporate affiliate Kerr McGee Gathering at the same time as execution of this Agreement. b. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if Owner fails to submit an annexation petition as required by this Agreement, or takes any other actions to prevent annexation of the Property, Owner agrees that such Master Encroachment License shall automatically become void ab initio. If the Master Encroachment License becomes void 2 1/7/2019 Q.' (JSERSiERIEL4NADARKO ANNEXATIONIAGRUNNEX.A010719.DOCX pursuant to this Section, the Existing Mt. Evans License and the Existing Whooley-Morgan License (as such license agreements are defined in the Master Encroachment License) shall control all encroachments existing as of the date such Master Encroachment License becomes void. To avoid any doubt, the Parties agree that the any failure of the annexation, unless caused by Owner or its corporate affiliates, shall not affect the validity of the Master Encroachment License. c. Capitalized terms not defined in this Agreement shall have the same meaning as in the Master Encroachment License, whether or not the Master Encroachment License remains in effect. 8. WOGLA. During the Term of this Agreement, and provided Owner is not in breach of this Agreement, neither the Town nor TOEURA will oppose Owner's WOGLA or any Application for Permit to Drill (Form 2) or Oil and Gas Location Assessment (Form 2A) filed with the Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission ("COGCC") by Owner for the Wells. Owner agrees to comply with all permits issued by the COGCC, including all applicable best management practices ("BMPs") associated therewith. 9. Liquidated Damages. Because the Parties agree that annexation is crucial to the Town and TOEURA and Owner's failure to annex constitutes a compensable inconvenience to the Town and its residents, the liquidated damages established in this Section 9 shall be enforced. Such damages are not a penalty. If Owner fails to submit an annexation petition as required by this Agreement, or takes any other action to prevent annexation of the Property, Owner shall compensate the Town in the amount of $250,000 per year, per location of any Improvements installed on Town Property, for as long as the Improvements remain in place, in addition to any amounts due from Owner's corporate affiliate Kerr McGee Gathering under the applicable encroachment license; provided that, upon a total payment of $5,000,000 to the Town pursuant to this Section 9, Owner shall no longer be obligated to compensate the Town with any payments pursuant to this Section 9. To avoid any doubt, the Parties agree that the any failure of the annexation, unless caused by Owner or any of its corporate affiliates, shall not subject Owner to the liquidated damages set forth herein. 10. Miscellaneous. a. Cooperation. The Parties agree that they will cooperate in good faith concerning this Agreement. b. Governing Law and Venue. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Colorado, and any legal action concerning the provisions hereof shall be brought in Weld County, Colorado. b. No Waiver. Delays in enforcement or the waiver of any one or more defaults or breaches of this Agreement by the Town shall not constitute a waiver of any of the other terms or obligation of this Agreement. c.

Therefore, pursuant to the State Engineer's March 4, 2005 and March 11, 2011 memorandums to county planning directors, this office will only perform a cursory review of the referral information and provide informal comments. The comments do not address the adequacy of the water supply plan for this project or the ability of the water supply plan to satisfy any County regulations or requirements. In addition, the comments provided herein cannot be used to guarantee a viable water supply plan or infrastructure, the issuance of a well permit, or physical availability of water. The application seeks to split an approximately 74.1 -acre parcel into two lots via a recorded exemption process. Lot A will be 27.1 acres in size and is proposed to be used for oil and gas operations and Lot B will be 47.0 acres and is also proposed to be used for oil and gas operations. As part of this application the Applicant wishes to vacate the special use permit (MUSR15-005) for Class II water injection well and the 192 foot tall communication tower located on the new Lot A. In addition the new Lot B will be annexed into the Town of Erie and includes the existing and future oil and gas wells. According to the information provided bottled water and portable toilets will be provided for personnel accessing the two new lots. A cursory review of well permits in this area shows that there are no existing water wells on the 74.1 - acre parcel that could affect this application, therefore the State Engineer's Office does not object to the proposed exemption.

Introduction ARCADIS U.S Inc., has prepared this geologic hazard assessment on behalf of Kerr McGee Oil & Gas Onshore LP (Kerr McGee), for their proposed installation of a communications tower at their existing KMG19-3i Salt Water Disposal (SWD) Facility located near the towns of Erie/Frederick, in Weld County, Colorado (the site) (Figure 1). Kerr McGee previously met with Weld County to discuss Site Specific Development Plan, and Use by Special Review (USR) requirements for this project. During that meeting Kerr McGee and Weld County determined that, based on the sites proximity to historical coal mining activity a Geologic Hazard Development Permit (GHDP) application would need to be included in Kerr McGee's USR submittal package. In order to adequately consider the GHDP application, Weld County also requires submittal of a geologic hazard assessment report with emphasis on those conditions which may impact the proposed development. This report has been prepared in order to assess the potential geological hazards posed on the proposed development, and to satisfy the requirements of Section 2, Article 23, Division 7 of the Weld County Code pertaining to geologic hazard development permits. In order to help guide the review of a GHDP application, Weld County has developed a GHDP submittal checklist. A copy of Weld County's GHDP submittal checklist, along with a completed GHDP application, is provided in Appendix A. 1.1 Site Location The site is located northeast of the intersection of County Road 12 and County Road 7 in Weld County, Colorado on a 75.78 acre lot located in the W1/2, of the SW% of Section 3, T1 N, R69W (Figure 2). The property on which the site is located is owned by Kerr McGee's parent company, Anadarko E&P Company LP, and is zoned agricultural with special purpose improvements (Weld County 2013). 1.2 Site Setting The site elevation is approximately 5,050 feet above mean sea level (ft amsl) (USGS 1994). The property slopes gently to the north and has a multi -well pad and salt water disposal facility in the northeast corner with the remainder used for agricultural purposes. The site has one existing building and a tank battery for the KMG19-3i Salt Water Disposal Facility in the northeast corner of the property (Figure 1). The site is located in the Colorado Piedmont (13f) section of the Great Plains province of the Interior Plains physiographic region (Fenneman 1946). The Colorado Piedmont lies on the eastern foot of the Rockies between the South Platte and Arkansas Rivers Geological Hazard Assessment KMG 19-3i Communications Tower Project SW 1/4. SW 1/4, Section 3, T1 N, R68W weld co geologic haz 20130930 final.docx 1 'N 4 ARCADIS which have excavated into the Tertiary sedimentary rock layers of the Great Plains. The site receives an average of 18 inches per year (NOAA 2011). While there are no significant drainages on the site, surface water bodies are present within one mile, and include branches of the Community Ditch irrigation canal and several perennial and intermittent agricultural ponds. The branches of the Community Ditch irrigation canal are approximately 3,000 feet to the west and 1,950 feet to the east of the site. The closest agricultural pond is approximately 500 feet to the northeast of the site. 1.3 Proposed Development The proposed structure is an approximately 192 foot tall, pre -fabricated, self- supporting, cross -braced communication tower. The base of the tower will measure approximately 35 feet by 35 feet, and will be supported by an engineered foundation. Final foundation design determinations have not yet been made, but will likely consist of either a structural mat -and -pier type of foundation, or drilled caisson footers (4 foot diameter concrete caissons, up to 44 feet deep) at each tower corner.

Methods ARCADIS has reviewed readily available published materials from the United States Geological Survey (USGS), Colorado Geological Society (CGS) and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), the Association of Engineering Geologist (AEG) and Colorado School of Mines. Geological Hazard Assessment KMG 19-3i Communications Tower Project SW 1/4. SW 1/4, Section 3, T1 N, R68W ARCADIS also reviewed a geotechnical report that was previously prepared by Ground Engineering Consultants, Inc. (GROUND) in May 2010 for Kerr McGee in support of their construction of the KMG 19-3i SWD facility (GROUND 2010). GROUND previously drilled test holes and collected geotechnical data in support of geological hazard assessment and offered a number of geotechnical recommendations for construction that are also applicable to the newly proposed construction of a communications tower. Geologic hazards reviewed using these readily available documents for the site location include flooding, landslides, undermining, seismic activity, and the shrinking/swelling of soil and bedrock. weld co geologic haz 20130930 final.docx 3 'N 4 ARCADIS 3. Results This section of the report summarizes the key findings from ARCADIS' review of the available regional and site specific information. Our assessment of flooding, landslide, and seismic considerations are based on available literature. Key findings from the previous GROUND geotechnical investigation summary report (included as Appendix B) are condensed and summarized in this section of the report for convenience. The most significant hazards ARCADIS has identified for this site pertain to the potential for shrink -swell of soils and bedrock heave, as well as subsidence as a result of historic underground mining activity beneath the site. Additional details regarding the assessment of these hazards will be provided herein. 3.1 Flood Hazard The site is defined by the Flood Insurance Rate Maps zone as Zone C which is described as having a 0.2 percent chance of annual flooding (FEMA 1990). ARCADIS' opinion is that the flood risk to the proposed development is minimal. 3.2 Landslides Geological Hazard Assessment KMG 19-3i Communications Tower Project SW 1/4. SW 1/4, Section 3, T1 N, R68W The USGS defines landslides as a "wide range of ground movement, such as rock falls, deep failures of slopes and shallow debris flows (USGS 2004). The Colorado Landslide Inventory (CLI), which includes landslides mapped by CGS and USGS, does not include any mapped landslide areas within one mile of the site. The lack of a mapped landslide in a given area by the CLI does not imply that a landslide hazard has not been mapped by an outside private or academic party or that a hazard does not exist. The area surrounding the site has an approximate one percent grade and in ARCADIS's opinion presents an unlikely risk of a naturally occurring landslide. 3.3 Seismic Activity! Earthquakes / Site Classification Colorado does have Quaternary age faults located in the Front Range and to the west but is considered by the USGS to be a region of minor earthquake activity. The earthquake peak ground acceleration that has a 2 percent chance of being exceeded in 50 years at the site has a value of between 4 and 8%g (USGS 2012). Two normal faults, NE -SW and N -S striking, intersect the property on which the site is located (Tweto 1979). These are examples of the late cretaceous age faults that span the Boulder — Weld Coal Field and are responsible for the five -fold thickening of the Fox weld co geologic haz 20130930 final.docx 4 'N 4 ARCADIS Hills sandstone and the availability of minable coal in downthrown blocks of the Laramie Formation (Davis & Weimer 1976). A seismic site assessment was performed in accordance with the National Earthquake Hazards Reduction Program (NEHRP) Recommended Seismic Provisions for New Buildings and Other Structures 2009. Based on this assessment, ARCADIS has identified site specific occupancy and seismic design categories for the proposed communications tower, as follows: • Occupancy Category - II — The proposed communications tower is defined as Occupancy Category II. Occupancy Category II is reserved for non -essential buildings and other structures that represent between a low hazard and a substantial hazard to human life in the event of failure. • Seismic Design Category — C — Quantitative determination of the site class in accordance with the 2009 international building code (ICC 2009) requires specific actions including, but not limited to testing, analyses, and subsurface investigation including a 100 foot deep boring. In 2010, two test borings were advanced to approximately 184 feet below ground surface. Laboratory analysis was performed on the bottom 20 feet of each boring (GROUND 2010). As per Table 1613.5.2 (ICC 2009), a seismic design category C was assigned to the site based on soil conditions encountered at the site in 2010. The 2009 NEHRP Seismic Design Provisions for the above occupancy and seismic design categories are as follows: • Ss = 23% g — The mapped, maximum considered earthquake, 5 -percent - damped, spectral response acceleration parameter at short periods (0.2 seconds). • S1 = 8.1% g — The mapped, maximum considered earthquake, 5 -percent - damped, spectral response acceleration parameter at a period of 1 second. • Fa = 1.2% g — Site coefficient as a function of site class and mapped spectral response acceleration at short periods, S -is. • Fv = 1.7% g - Site coefficient as a function of site class and mapped spectral response acceleration at a 1 second period, 3.4 Previous Geotechnical Investigation Anadarko previously hired GROUND to conduct a subsurface investigation and prepare geotechnical recommendations for the design and construction of foundations associated with the saltwater disposal facility.

SW 1/4, Section 3, T1 N, R68W weld co geologic haz 20130930 final.docx 5 'N 4 ARCADIS summary report is included as Appendix B. The investigation entailed the installation of five test holes to depths ranging between 20 and 35 feet below surface in order evaluate subsurface conditions, including depths to bedrock and groundwater, and to retrieve samples for laboratory testing and analysis. Two additional test holes were advanced to depths of 182 to 184 feet in order to evaluate the possible presence of mine workings (GROUND 2010). The location of these test holes are shown on Figure 3. Pertinent findings from this investigation are summarized below: • The test holes generally encountered competent bedrock materials within a few feet of the ground surface. Competent bedrock was overlain by several feet of alluvium and severely weathered bedrock and/or clayey fill soils. The bedrock consisted primarily of claystones and siltstones with thin interbeds of sandstone, and coal beds up to at least 8 feet thick. Geological Hazard Assessment KMG 19-3i Communications Tower Project SW 1/4. SW 1/4, Section 3, T1 N, R68W • Groundwater was not encountered in the shallower test holes, and was only encountered irregularly at various depths in the two deeper test holes. • Laboratory swell -consolidation testing indicated a high to very high potential for post -construction heave at the site. Measured swells for samples of the shallow bedrock ranged up to approximately six percent when wetted and subjected to loads indicative of in -place overburden pressure. Slight consolidation was measured as well. • The two deeper test holes encountered zones of broken rock and voids at depths of about 175 feet below surface. GROUND used data from this investigation to calculate settlement potential. These calculations estimated that between three and four inches of differential settlement is likely in areas of the site underlain by historical mine workings. • Significant concentrations, up to one percent by weight, of water-soluble sulfates were measured in selected test -hole samples. Such concentrations can present a severe environment for sulfate attack on concrete exposed to these materials. 3.5 Shrinking / Swelling Potential of Soils and Bedrock The site is located on the Nunn Loam at one to three percent slope. The Nunn Loam is described as a deep, well -drained soil on terraces at elevations of 4,550 to 5,000 feet. It formed in mixed alluvium. Small, long and narrow areas of sand and gravel deposits were also included in the areas mapped as the Nunn Loam and may be present on site. Typically the surface layer of the Nunn Loam is grayish brown loam about 12 inches thick. The subsoil is light brownish gray clay loam about 12 inches weld co geologic haz 20130930 final.docx 6 'N 4 ARCADIS thick. The upper part of the substratum is light brownish gray clay loam. The lower part to a depth of 60 inches is brown sandy loam. Permeability is moderately slow. Available water capacity is high. The effective rooting depth is 60 inches or more. Surface runoff is medium, and the erosion hazard is low. The Nunn Loam has fair to poor potential for urban development. It has moderate to high shrink swell, low strength, and moderately slow permeability. These features create problems in dwelling and road construction. Those areas that have loam or sandy loam in the lower part of the substratum are suitable for septic tank absorption fields and foundations (Crabb 1980). The site is underlain by the Laramie Formation and the Fox Hills Sandstone. The Laramie formation is composed of gray claystone, shale, sandy shale and fine to medium grained sandstone with coal beds of varying thickness. Slope stability is generally good in unsaturated slopes of less than 25°. Foundation suitability is generally good where expansive clay, slope stability and subsidence problems are absent. The Fox Hills Sandstone is a fine to coarse grained, calcareous, tan sandstone with interbedded sandy shale. This formation generally has a high bearing strength (Bildeau, Buskirk, & Biloceau 1987). As discussed previously, GROUND conducted a subsurface investigation at the site in 2010. Evaluation of soil heave potential from this investigation indicated that the property has high to very high potentials for post -construction heave in the shallow onsite bedrock (GROUND 2010). Geological Hazard Assessment KMG 19-3i Communications Tower Project GROUND's interpretation of samples from borings conducted at the salt water disposal facility indicated that this portion of the property was on the Laramie Formation (GROUND 2010). It is likely that the Fox Hills Sandstone lies on the other (western) side of the cretaceous age faults that intersect the site. Mining in the Puritan Mine followed coal seams accessible in the downthrown blocks of the Laramie Formation and did not extend west of the fault intersecting the property (National Fuel 1939). 3.6 Undermining The Boulder -Weld Coal Field, originally the Northern Field, was mined from 1859 to 1978. 223 coal mines operated in the district removing over 111 million short tons of coal making it the most mined of the Front Range fields (CGS 2012). The property on which the communications tower will be located is partially underlain by the southwest portion of The National Fuel Company's Puritan Mine which operated from 1908 to its abandonment on May 13, 1939 producing 256,578 tons of coal (Western 2008, Naitonal Fuel 1939). The Puritan Mine was closed before or SW 1/4. SW 1/4, Section 3, T1 N, R68W weld co geologic haz 20130930 final.doex 7 'N 4 ARCADIS Geological Hazard Assessment KMG 19-3i Communications Tower Project SW 1/4. SW 1/4, Section 3, T1 N, R68W immediately after the advent of the automated continuous miner and used a modified room and pillar retreat method. The continuous miner increased extraction rates in mines which it operated from 50-60 to 60-70 percent or greater (Western 2008). The western edge of this portion of the Puritan Mine follows the N -S striking fault that crosses the property on which the site is located. The Puritan Mine removed five to ten feet of coal at an estimated depth of 175 feet below the surface at the site and was accessed via a rock tunnel to the hoist shaft in the SE% of Section 34 of T2N, R68W. Figure 3 depicts the location of the site and property boundary in relation to the original maps of the Puritan Mine workings. The limitations of surveying methods and the completeness of the extent of mining surveys should be considered when evaluating the location of the workings in relation to the site. The portion of the Puritan Mine underlying the site has had the pillars removed. Evidence of subsidence above this area of the Puritan Mine was not identified in the literature search. The nearest located evidence of subsidence is approximately 4,700 feet to the southwest in an area of overlap of the Morrison and Clayton Mines (Ivey 1975). The site is mapped as having a "low" subsidence hazard, which is described as "areas in which the rate and magnitude of any surface displacement would be small enough to warrant repair of damage to existing structures and application of adequate engineering design to future structures so they can withstand small amounts of foundation displacement." These areas, below which all or essentially all pillars have been removed allowing for the possibility of relatively uniform and complete subsidence to have occurred. Problems in such areas should be reduced to post - subsidence compaction and related surface settling, and to small-scale effects of sub- surface shifting resulting from any small residual or secondary voids. The only restriction placed on land use would be the requirement for adequate structural design of any structures planned for these areas" (Ivey 1975). Previous mine subsidence assessments, conducted for subdivision of land, in Section 3 of TIN, R 68W were reviewed. Collapse was complete in all borings that intersected the Puritan Mine conducted during these investigations. Drilling fluid loss, when present, was observed within approximately 20 feet above the mined interval. This suggests that complete collapse and the rubble zone is confined to 20 feet above the workings where the formation of a pressure arch has occurred. Theoretical strain analysis conducted as part of these assessments to estimate a worst case mine subsidence event of the consolidation of the rubble zone used a "theoretical void" of approximately 0.5 feet resulting in a maximum of 0.15 percent horizontal strain (Tierra 1983; Western 1999a,b,c; Western 2008). weld co geologic haz 20130930 final.docx 8 'N 4 ARCADIS As part of GROUND's subsurface investigation two borings, TH-6 & TH-7, (Figure 3 and Appendix A) were advanced to 184 ft bgs and 182 ft bgs. These borings encountered voids, 2.5 foot and 0.5 foot, at approximately 176 ft bgs. Shoring timbers and fractures within ten feet of the voids were also encountered. GROUND used data from these two test holes to calculate settlement potential. These calculations estimated that between three and four inches of differential settlement is likely in areas of the site underlain by historical mine workings (GROUND 2010).

Additional Considerations This geological hazard assessment report was prepared in support of Kerr McGee's request for a GHDP. Weld County will evaluate this report for completeness using their GHDP submittal checklist (Appendix A). The GHDP submittal checklist includes a list of specific topics that, where applicable, should be addressed by this report. The need for this report is generally addressed under the GDHP submittal checklist, supplemental requirement number 3. The specific topics this report needed to address are listed as supplemental requirements 3.A through 3.K. ARCADIS has substantively addressed each of concerns associated with these topics in this report, where applicable. The notable exceptions are Items 3.C (poorly consolidated aquifers), and 3.D (wind deposited silts or loess) which we deemed not applicable, due to the absence of these types geologic materials at the site.

Conclusions Based upon the results of the literature review completed by ARCADIS the following conclusions and recommendations can be made. • The supplemental GDHP checklist requirements have been effectively addressed by the preparation and submittal of this general geological hazard assessment report. o Pursuant to supplemental requirement number 1, a completed application permit has been prepared, and is included with Appendix A o Pursuant to supplemental requirement number 2, a site survey has been conducted by a licensed surveyor, 609 Consulting, LLC. Results of this survey, along with the supplemental Items 2.A through 2.1 from the checklist, have been incorporated into Figure 1. o This report effectively addresses the intent of supplemental requirement number 3, including explanation of features depicted on Figure 1, and the assessment of potential hazards associated with Items 3.A through 3.K, where applicable. • Literature reviews indicate the loamy soils and shallow, weathered bedrock at the site have a moderate to high shrink -swell potential. This finding is underscored by site -specific testing that was conducted on test holes from the site in 2010. • Laboratory swell -consolidation testing from test -hole samples indicated a high to very high potential for post -construction heave at the site. Measured swells for samples of the shallow bedrock ranged up to approximately six percent when wetted and subjected to loads indicative of in -place overburden pressure. Slight consolidation was measured as well. • The Puritan Mine's workings have partially undermined the site. Based upon original mine maps showing removal of pillars; the near to complete collapse documented in all subsidence investigation borings in Section 3, Ti N, R 68W; observations from the previously installed test holes by GROUND; and a lack of documented surface subsidence in the area it is ARCADIS' opinion that the site has a low risk for subsidence. • The extent of undermining at the site is generally understood, and the low potential for subsidence risk on the proposed development has been effectively mitigated by Kerr McGee's decision to place the communications tower several hundred feet to the west of the approximated fault line location, in an area of the site where undermining did not occur.

SW 1/4, Section 3, T1 N, R68W weld co geologic haz 20130930 final.docx 11 'N 4 ARCADIS • Significant concentrations, up to one percent by weight, of water-soluble sulfates were measured in selected test -hole samples. Such concentrations can present a severe environment for sulfate attack on concrete exposed to these materials. • Poorly consolidated aquifers, loess, and fine grained colluvial soils have not been identified at the site.

Recommendations Based on our assessment of the geological hazards on the proposed development, ARCADIS recommends Kerr McGee consult with a qualified geotechnical engineer to ensure the shrink -swell potential of the soils and shallow bedrock is accounted for in the design of the proposed communication tower's foundation. Geological Hazard Assessment KMG 19-3i Communications Tower Project The geotechnical recommendations for foundation systems that were previously prepared by GROUND in support of the saltwater disposal facility construction are also applicable to the area of the site where the communications tower will be constructed. GROUND included recommendations designed to address the shrink -swell potential of the alluvium soils and shallow bedrock, including recommendations specific to use of either drilled pier foundations, or shallow foundation systems. The geotechnical report also included: 1) recommended specifications for sulfate resistant cement for use in any concrete that is exposed to soils and bedrock; and 2) excavation and backfill considerations for the installation of utility laterals at the site (Appendix A). ARCADIS recommends that Kerr McGee's tower design engineer take these past geotechnical recommendations into account when designing the foundation and utility connections for the communications tower.

(GROUND) to provide geotechnical recommendations for design and construction of the proposed Anadarko KMG 19-31 Facility, in Weld County, Colorado. Our services were performed in general accordance with GROUND's Proposal No. 1002-0247 dated February 10, 2010. Our proposed scope of service does not include providing geotechnical recommendations for construction of the proposed access road(s). A separate proposal can be provided upon request to provide those additional services. A field exploration program was conducted to obtain information on subsurface conditions. Material samples obtained during the subsurface exploration were tested in the laboratory to provide data on the classification and engineering characteristics of the on -site soils. The results of the field exploration and laboratory testing are presented herein. This report has been prepared to summarize the data obtained and to present our conclusions and recommendations based on the proposed construction and the subsurface conditions encountered. Design parameters and a discussion of geotechnical engineering considerations related to the construction of the proposed facility are included. PROPOSED CONSTRUCTION Based on the information provided by the project civil engineer, CH2M Hill Trigon, Inc., we understand that the project will consist of the following: U Construction of settling, slop and oil storage tanks approximately 12 feet in diameter and 20 feet in height. ❑ Construction of elevated cone bottom fiberglass tanks with vertical legs approximately 20 feet in diameter and 30 feet tall. O Construction of water storage tanks approximately 50 feet in diameter and 24 feet tall. ,fob No. 10-3022 GROUND Engineering Consullents, Inc. Page 1 Subsurface Exploration Program Geotechnical Recommendations Anadarko KMG 119-3i Facility Weld County, Colorado ❑ Construction of a portable pump injection building on a structural steel skidded frame. The approximate size of the building is 15 feet wide by 50 feet long. The building is to be 10 feet in height ❑ A drum filter. U A transformer. © A concrete containment slab for a truck fill station, approximately 100 feet wide by 100 feet long. U There are also anticipated to be pumps, a glycol heater, and pipe and cable tray supports. Based on the site topography, additional cuts and fills necessary to achieve the finished grades at the site will be less than 2 feet. We assume that buried drain/fill lines will be installed for the tanks and that other buried utility lines will be installed to serve the facility. Geotechnical recommendations for paving were excluded from our scope. We assume that little or no landscaping will be included in the project. Gravel pathways, rather than concrete sidewalks will facilitate access between the structures. If the proposed construction differs significantly from that described above, GROUND should be notified to re-evaluate the recommendations contained herein. SITE CONDITIONS The site consisted of a portion of a cultivated field that had been graded to form an elongate facility pad surrounded by an approximately 10 -foot berm. The pad was nearly flat, and contained a well. Gravel and small cobbles were common on the ground surface on the southern half of the pad; about 2 inches of drilling mud covered much of the north half. On the west side of the termed area was an unpaved access road, Another existing well was noted to the east of the site. Cultivated land surrounded the remainder of the site, supporting what appeared to be native grasses. Jab No. 10-3022 GROUND Engineering Consultants, Inc. Page 2 Subsurface Exploration Program Geotechnical Recommendations Anadarko KMG 19-3i Facility Weld County, Colorado SUBSURFACE EXPLORATION The subsurface exploration for the project was conducted in March, 2010. Five test holes were advanced using conventional, truck -mounted drilling equipment to depths from approximately 20 to 35 feet below existing grades to evaluate the subsurface conditions, including depths to bedrock and groundwater, as well as to retrieve samples for laboratory testing and analysis. Two additional test holes were advanced to depths from approximately 182 to 184 feet below existing grades using air -rotary and NX coring equipment to evaluate the possible presence of mine workings beneath the site. A GROUND engineer directed subsurface exploration, logged the test holes in the field and prepared the samples for transport to our laboratory. Samples of the subsurface materials were retrieved with a 2 -inch I.D. "California" -type liner sampler for the five shallower test holes. The sampler was driven into the substrata with blows from a 140 -pound hammer falling 30 inches. This procedure is similar to the Standard Penetration Test described by ASTM Method D1586. Penetration resistance values (blows per distance driven, typically 12 inches), when properly evaluated, indicate the relative density or consistency of soils and bedrock. Depths at which the samples were obtained and associated penetration resistance values are shown on the test hole logs. Additionally, core samples of the bedrock materials in the depths of historic coal mining activities were advanced into the bedrock materials using a 5 -foot, NX-sized core barrel. Depths at which the samples were obtained and associated properties of the cores are also shown on the boring logs. The approximate locations of the test holes are shown in Figure 1, following the text. Logs of the test holes are shown in Figure 2 through 4, Legend and Notes are presented in Figure 5. LABORATORY TESTING Samples retrieved from our test holes were examined and visually classified in the laboratory by the project engineer. Laboratory testing of soil samples obtained from the subject site included standard property tests, such as moisture content in -placed density, grain size analyses, and Atterberg limits. Swell -consolidation, unconfined Job No. 10-3022 GROUND Englnearing Consultants, Inc. Page 3 Subsurface Exploration Program Geatechnical Recommendations Anadarko KMG 19-3i Facility Weld County, Colorado compressive strength, water-soluble sulfate content, corrosivity and hydraulic conductivity (permeability) tests were performed on selected samples as well, Compaction (Proctor) characteristics were evaluated from a composite (bulk) sample of the shallow soils. Laboratory tests were performed in general accordance with applicable ASTM protocols. Data from the laboratory testing program are summarized on Tables 1 and 2. Data from the proctor testing are summarized on Figure 6. SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS The test holes generally encountered bedrock materials from almost the ground surface. The bedrock was overlain by a few feet of severely weathered bedrock and/or clayey fill soils. The bedrock consisted primarily of claystones / clay shales and siltstones / silt shales (referred to herein as "claystones" and "siltstones") with thin interbeds of sandstone, and coal beds up to 8 or more feet in thickness. Published maps, e.g. Ogden Tweto (1979)1, depict the site as underlain by the Upper Cretaceous Laramie and Fox Hills Sandstone formations. We interpret the bedrock to be Laramie Formation materials. The claystones, siltstones, and coals extended to the depths explored. Within those materials, indications of mined out zones (broken rock, voids filled with rock -water slurry, timbers, etc.) were encountered at depths of about 176 and 179 feet below existing grades. Maps published by the Colorado Geological Survey 2 indicate that the Puritan Mine extended toward the site from the east, with coal mined from workings at depths of 159 feet or more. We interpret the above findings to indicate that mining extended farther to the west than mapped. Fill soils were encountered locally in the test holes. Delineation of the complete lateral and vertical extents of all fills on the site was beyond our present scope of services. If fill soil volumes and compositions at the site are of significance, the contractor should evaluate them using shallow test pits. t Trimble, D.E. and M.N.

Job No. 14.3022 GROUND Engineering Consultants, Inc. Page 4 Subsurface Exploration Program Geotechnical Recommendations Anadarko KMG 19-3i Facility Weld County, Colorado Fill generally consisted of sands and clays with gravel and cobbles locally. The sand fractions were fine to coarse. These soils were moist, low to medium plastic, loose to compact, and light brown in color. Weathered Ciaystone and Siltstone was slightly sandy to sandy, low or highly plastic, moist to wet, stiff to very stiff, and light brown in color. Iron oxide staining was noted locally. Claystone and Siltstone Bedrock generally consisted of claystones with subordinate siltstones and coals, and scattered beds of sandstone. The sand fractions were generally fine. They were low to highly plastic, slightly moist to moist, medium hard to very hard, and light brown to gray to brown to gray -brown in color. iron oxide staining was noted locally. Coal was encountered at various depths in beds ranging from a few inches to at least 6 feet in thickness. The coal was anthracitic, moderately hard, and exhibited numerous fractures. Groundwater was not encountered in the shallower test holes at the time of drilling. The deeper test holes encountered groundwater irregularly at various depths. Methane gas releases caused episodic bursts of groundwater to the surface from depths of more than 100 feet at Test Hole 6. Groundwater levels should be anticipated to fluctuate, however, in response to annual and longer -term cycles of precipitation, applied irrigation, and surface drainage. Swell -Consolidation Testing indicated a high to very high potential for post - construction heave at the site. Measured swells for samples of the shallow claystone bedrock ranged up to approximately 6.0 percent upon wetting against surcharge loads that approximated the in -place overburden pressure on that sample. A slight consolidation was measured, as well. Swell -consolidation test results are summarized on Table 1. SEISMIC CLASSIFICATION According to the 2006/2009 International Building Code® (Section 1613 Earthquake Loads), "Every structure, and portion thereof, including nonstructural components that Job No. 10-3022 GROUND Engineering Consultants, Inc. Page 5 Subsurface Exploration Program Geotechnical Recommendations Anadarko KMG 19-3i Facility Weld County, Colorado are permanently attached to structures and their supports and attachments, shall be designed and constructed to resist the effects of earthquake motions in accordance with ASCE 7, excluding Chapter 14 and Appendix 11A. The seismic design category for a structure is permitted to be determined in accordance with Section 1613 (2006/2009 IBC) or ASCE 7." Exceptions to this are further noted in Section 1613. In accordance with the 2006/2009 International Building Code, it is GROUND's opinion that Seismic Design Category B would be applicable for seismic foundation design, based on an Occupancy Category of I, II, or III. The Project Structural Engineer should ultimately determine the Seismic Design Category_ Compared with other regions of the Western United States, recorded earthquake frequency in the project vicinity is relatively row. Per 2006/2009 IBC, Section 1613.5.2 Site class definitions, "Based on the site soil properties, the site shall be classified as either Site Class A, B, C, D, E or F in accordance with Table 1613.5.2. When the soil properties are not known in sufficient detail to determine the site class, Site Class D shall be used unless the building official or geotechnical data determines that Site Class E or F soil is likely to be present at the site". As permitted in Table 1613.5.2, in the event the soil shear wave velocity, v�, is not known, site class shall be determined from standard penetration resistance, N, or from soil undrained shear strength, su, calculated in accordance with Section 1613.5.5, for the top 100 feet of subsurface soils. Based on the soil conditions encountered in the test holes drilled on the site, our review of applicable geologic maps, as well as our experience within the Project site vicinity, GROUND estimates that a Site Class C (estimate this using the IBC guidelines) according to the 2006/2009 IBC classification (Table 1613.5.2) be utilized for design. GEOTECHNICAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR DESIGN The proposed facility site is a difficult site geotechnically. The previous earthwork at the site removed the native soils, resulting in exposure of the Laramie Formation claystones and siltstones essentially at the ground surface, overlain only by a few feet of uncontrolled fill, etc. Foundations bearing on the claystones and siltstones will provide Job No. 10-3022 GROUND Engineering Consultants, Inc. Page 6 Subsurface Exploration Program Geotechnical Recommendations Anadarko KMG 79-3i Facility Weld County, Colorado ample bearing support for the project structures. However, the highly expansive nature of the bedrock claystones and the potential for surface settlement due to consolidation of former mine workings at depth complicate design of the proposed structures. Expansive Soils Heave The data obtained for this study suggested high to very high potentials for post -construction heave in the shallow, on -site bedrock. As discussed in detail in Appendix A, we estimate that 6 to 8 inches of post -construction movements are likely where structures are supported directly on the shallow bedrock exposed at the site. Mining -Related Subsidence Both of the deeper test holes (Test Holes 6 and 7) encountered zones of broken rock and voids at depths of about 175 feet beneath the site. We understand that the injection well drilled on the site also encountered voids. We interpret those zones to represent former workings of the Puritan Mine that have partially collapsed, As such, they would indicate that the Puritan Mine workings apparently extend at least 200 feet farther west than mapped by the Colorado Geological Survey.2 Based on these subsurface conditions, it is GROUND's opinion that the mine workings underlie effectively the entire project site. (Further) collapse of those zones could lead to settlements at the ground surface above or near the area that collapsed. Numerous incidents of mine -related subsidence have been documented in the overall Boulder — Weld County coal field area which includes the subject site. As discussed in Appendix A, we estimate that the likely magnitude of settlement that will be realized at the facility is 3 to 4 inches. This settlement likely will be differential across a given structure footprint because we anticipate mine -related subsidence to be realized irregularly, if at all, across the site. Drainage Effective drainage is an important tool for mitigating expansive soils heave. The facility pad, however, has been constructed by lowering grades slightly to provide material for constructing the enclosing berms. The berms themselves limit run-off away from the propose facilities. Therefore, effective surface drainage measures should be incorporated into project design to slow post -construction wetting of the site soils. Job No. 1O-3022 GROUND Engineering Consultants, Inc. Page 7 Subsurface Exploration Program Geotochnical Recommendations Anadarko MG 19-3i Facility Weld County, Colorado FOUNDATION SYSTEMS The following recommendations are applicable to the elevated fiberglass tanks, the at - grade or below -grade settling, slop, oil storage and water tanks, and the various ancillary structures. It should be noted that these foundation recommendations were intended to address the expansive soil conditions at the site. We assumed that the risk of mine -related subsidence was acceptable to the Anadarko Petroleum and that no remedial measures will be undertaken to address it. These foundation systems and associated earthwork will provide little or no benefit with regard to mitigating distress that could result from mine -related subsidence. Recommendations to address mine - related subsidence can be provided on request. Note that undertaking such measures at depths on the order of 175 feet may be costly. Drilled Pier Foundations Where tolerances for post -construction movements are low, GROUND recommends that structures be supported on straight -shaft drilled piers bearing below the depth of wetting. Although drilled pier foundations will not eliminate the risk of post -construction building movements, if the measures outlined in this report are implemented effectively, the likelihood of acceptable building performance will be within the local industry standards for buildings supported on drilled pier foundation systems on soils of this nature. The design criteria presented below should be observed for drill pier foundation systems. Additional geotechnical criteria and considerations for construction of drilled pier foundations are provided in Appendix B. It should be noted that the depths discussed herein refer to depths below existing surface grades at the time of our subsurface exploration. The contractor should make appropriate allowance for any changes in grades between the time of GROUND's field exploration and the time of drilled pier installation. Lowering grades may not be sufficient to reduce drilled pier lengths. 1) Piers should be at least 31 feet in length and should penetrate at least 11 feet into relatively un-weathered bedrock. Both criteria — minimum total pier length and minimum bedrock penetration — should be met. In this case, it appears that Job No, 10-3022 GROUND Engineering Consurtants, Inc. Page 6 Subsurface Exploration Program Geotechnical Recommendations Anadarko KMG 19-31 Facility Weld County, Colorado the minimum length criterion generally will govern because of the shallow depths at which bedrock was encountered. Based on the depths to relatively un-weathered shales encountered in the test holes, we anticipate that it will be necessary to advance piers to depths of at least 31 feet to 34 feet below existing grades to meet these geotechnical criteria. However, the actual pier lengths may be longer, based on the design loads, the presence of coal beds, the requirement for minimum dead load pressure, etc., as determined by the structural engineer, and the actual conditions encountered in the field at each pier location during installation. Lenses of severely weathered, soft or loose material, or coal, may be identified within the relatively un-weathered bedrock during drilled pier excavations. Where materials not suitable for foundation support are identified, it will be necessary to deepen individual piers. 2) Piers bearing in relatively un-weathered bedrock may be designed for an allowable end bearing pressure of 30,000 psf. Even with careful observation of the drilled pier excavations, it likely will not be possible to be certain that a pier does not bear on a relatively soft or weak coal lens or bed a short distance below the pier bottom. It will be necessary to perform supplemental drilling during construction after the drilled pier locations are known precisely to evaluate the possible presence of coal at bearing elevations. We anticipate a 4 -inch diameter test hole advanced rapidly at each pier location to the to the design bearing depth. An SPT sampler would be advanced at that depth and at approximately 24 to 36 inches below that depth to evaluate the possible presence of coal. Lengthening individual piers to get below local coal beds / lenses should be anticipated. 3) The portion of a pier penetrating relatively un-weathered bedrock may be designed for an allowable skin friction of 3,000 psf. This allowable skin friction value is applicable both to provide bearing support and resist uplift. Job No. 10-3022 GROUND Engineering Consultants, Inc, Page 9 Subsurface Exploration Program Geotechnical Recommendations Anadarko KMG 19-31 Facility Weld County, Colorado 4) Piers also should be designed for a minimum dead load pressure of 12,000 pet based on pier end area only. If the minimum dead load requirement cannot be achieved (as commonly it cannot), the pier lengths should be extended beyond the above minimum length to make up the dead load deficit. Skin friction in relatively un-weathered bedrock can be used to resist uplift. 6) A minimum pier diameter of 18 inches is recommended to facilitate proper cleaning and observation of the pier hole. 7) We suggest that a maximum pier length ; diameter ratio of 25 (L) : 1 (d) be maintained. The actual length : diameter ratio, however, should be determined by the structural engineer. 8) Groups of relatively closely spaced piers placed to support concentrated loads will require an appropriate reduction of the estimated capacities. Reduction of axial capacity can be avoided by spacing piers to a distance of at least 3 'diameters' center to center. At this spacing or greater, no reduction in axial capacities or horizontal soil modulus values is required. Pier groups spaced less than 3 diameters center to center should be studied on an individual basis to determine the appropriate axial capacity reduction(s). In -line arrays of drilled piers, however, must be spaced at least 6 diameters apart, center to center, to avoid reductions in lateral capacity when loaded in line with the array (parallel to the line connecting the pier centers). Linear arrays of piers spaced more closely than 6 diameters center to center should be studied to determine the appropriate lateral capacity reduction(s). 9) Piers should be reinforced for their full length to resist the ultimate tensile load created by the on -site swelling materials. Adequate reinforcement should be designed to resist the deficit between the design dead load on a pier and the uplift pressures acting on the pier perimeter in the upper 20 feet of material penetrated by the pier. Job No. 10-3022 GROUND Engineering Consultants, inc, Page i0 Subsurface Exploration Program Geotechnical Recommendations Anadarko KMG 19-3i Facility Weld County, Colorado Tension may be estimated on the basis of uplift pressure in the upper 20 feet of material penetrated by the pier, and on the surface area of the pier. An uplift skin friction of 1,800 psf should be used. Adequate reinforcement should be designed to resist the deficit between the design dead load on the pier and the uplift pressures acting on the pier perimeter. 10) Bedrock penetration in pier holes should be roughened artificially to assist the development of peripheral shear between the pier and bedrock. Artificially roughening of pier holes should consist of installing shear rings 3 inches high and 2 inches deep in the lowest 11 feet of each hole. The shear rings should be installed 18 inches on centers. The specifications should allow a geotechnical engineer to waive the requirement for shear rings depending on the conditions actually encountered in individual pier holes, however. 11) A 12 -inch or thicker void should be provided beneath grade beams to prevent the swelling soil and bedrock from exerting uplift forces on the grade beams and to concentrate pier loadings. A void should also be provided beneath necessary pier caps. 12) The parameters tabulated below may be used for analysis of drilled piers regarding their response to lateral loads using "L -Pile" or other programs using similar input parameters. The parameters were developed based on the field and laboratory data obtained for the subject site and GROUND's experience with similar sites and conditions. A simplified soil / bedrock profile, unit wet weights (y'), angles of internal friction (4)), cohesion (c), for the earth materials, as well as values for strain at 50 percent of failure stress (E60) and horizontal soil modulus (kh). The estimated values are tabulated below. Resistance to lateral loads should be neglected in any soils, including fill soils, shallower than 5 feet. No reduction of lateral support in cased intervals is recommended, as long as no slurry was placed in the pier hole to facilitate placement of concrete.

In such cases, the criteria presented below may be observed for a spread footing foundation system. Additional geotechnical criteria and considerations for construction of conventional, shallow foundations are provided in Appendix B. 1) If shallow foundations are selected for a structure, if the foundations bear on a section of properly compacted fill soils, the potential for distress resulting from post -construction foundation movements will be somewhat reduced, Alternative fill section thicknesses are tabulated below, together with estimated, likely post - construction vertical movements. The desired fill section thickness should be selected by the owner based on the degree of post -construction movement acceptable to him. Note that if a coal bed or lens is exposed at the bottom of remedial fill section excavation, the coal should be excavated in entirety if less than 2 feet in thickness. If the coal is greater than 2 feet in thickness, the remedial excavation should be deepened into the coal by a minimum of 2 feet Job No. 10-3022 GROUND Engineering Consultants, Inc.

Recommendations for placement and compaction of fill soils are provided in the Project Earthwork section and Appendix C of this report. 2) Footings bearing on properly compacted fill may be designed for an allowable soil bearing pressure (Q) of 3,000 psf under drained conditions. This value may be increased by 1I3 for transient loads such as wind or seismic loading. Based on these recommended allowable bearing pressures, we anticipate post - construction settlements from direct compression of the foundation soils on the order of 1 inch, Post -construction heave and mine -related subsidence induce additional movement beyond that caused by direct compression of the soils. The allowable bearing capacity provided above is based on the assumption of well -drained conditions. If foundation soils become wet, the effective bearing capacity could be reduced and the potential for heave or settlement will be increased. Job No, 10-3022 GROUND Engineering Consultants, Inc. Page 13 Subsurface Exploration Program Geotechnical Recommendations Anadarko MG 19-31 Facility Weld County, Colorado 3) Where possible, footings also should be designed to impose a minimum dead load of at least 1,000 psf. This minimum loading does not need to be maintained during transient loading, however. 4) In order to reduce differential settlements between footings or along continuous footings, footing loads should be as uniform as possible. Differentially loaded footings will heave or settle differentially. 5) We assume, however, that the portable, steel -framed, pump injection building, is adjustable and not readily affected by expansive soils heave. Therefore, that structure may be supported on shallow foundations bearing on firm, existing soils without a fill section beneath them. Connections to the building of all types must be flexible and/or adjustable to accommodate the anticipated movement. 6) Spread footings should have a minimum footing lateral dimension of 16 or more inches for linear strip footings and a minimum lateral dimension of 24 or more inches for isolated pad footings. Actual footing dimensions, however, should be determined by the structural engineer, based on the design loads. 7) Footings should be provided with adequate soil cover above their bearing elevation for frost protection. Footings should be placed at a bearing elevation 3 or more feet below the lowest adjacent exterior finish grades. (If frost heave is not a design concern for the portable, pump injection building, then footings for that building can bear at a depth of 1.6 feet.) 8) Continuous foundation walls should be reinforced top and bottom to span an unsupported length of at least 10 feet. 9) The lateral resistance of spread footings will be developed as sliding resistance of the footing bottoms on the compacted, granular fill. Sliding friction at the bottom of footings may be taken as 0.30 times the vertical dead load. 10) Compacted fill placed against the sides of the footings should be compacted to at least 95 percent relative compaction in accordance with the recommendations in Appondlx C. Job No. 10-3022 GROUND Engineering Consuitanls, Inc. Page 14 Subsurface Exploration Program Geotechnical Recommendations Anadarko KMG 19-3i Facility Weld County, Colorado TANK FLOOR SYSTEMS To provide for the least risk of adverse post -construction tank floor movements that are at -grade or below grade, GROUND recommends the use of structural floors supported on drilled piers in a manner similar to the structures and spanning over a void as the floor system entailing the lowest risk of post -construction floor movements. Requirements for the number and position of piers to support a floor, etc., will depend upon the spans, design loads, etc., in the structural design and, therefore, should be deveJoped by the structural engineer. Geotechnical recommendations for design and installation of drilled piers are provided in the Foundation Systems section of this report and in Appendix B. Drain -fill piping for the tank should be designed to allow for differential movement between the piping and the tank of up to 8 inches. We suggest that the piping be provided with flexible connections where the pipes enter the building to accommodate these differential movements. BELOW -GRADE TANK WALLS Where any of the tanks are partially or entirely below -grade, then below -grade tank walls which are laterally supported and can be expected to undergo only a limited amount of deflection, i.e., an "at -rest" condition, should be designed to resist lateral earth pressures computed on the basis of an equivalent fluid unit weight of 82 pcf where on -site materials are used as backfill. If CDOT Class 1 Structure Backfill were imported for use as wall backfill, an at -rest equivalent fluid pressure of 55 pcf could be used. However, we do not recommend use of a granular backfill without effective drainage that then would require a sump and pump or other means to remove infiltrating surface water. These 'at rest' loads are for well -drained conditions with a horizontal upper backfill surface. The additional loading of an upward sloping backfill, hydrostatic loads if sufficient drainage is not provided, as well as loads from traffic, stockpiled materials, etc., should be included in foundation wall design. Job No. 1D-3022 GROUND Engineering Consultants, Inc. Page 15 Subsurface Exploration Program Geotechnical Recommendations Anadarko KMG 19-3i Facility Weld County, Colorado Backlit' soils should be placed in accordance with the recommendations provided in the Project Earthwork section and Appendix C of this report. The contractor should take care not to over -compact the backfills, which could result in excessive lateral pressures on the walls. Some settlement of wall backf ills will occur even where the material was placed correctly. This settlement likely will be differential, increasing with depth of fill. Where shallowly founded structures and pavements must be placed on backfilled zones, structural design, pipe connections, etc., should take into account backfill settlement, including differential movement and the associated risks are understood by the owner. A geotechnical engineer should be retained to provide recommendations for founding improvements in such areas, FILL STATION CONTAINMENT SLAB GROUND recommends that the truck fill station containment slab be constructed as a reinforced portland cement concrete slab 7 or more inches in thickness placed on 6 inches of properly compacted CDOT Class 6 Aggregate Base Course. That slab is subject to comparable expansive soils heave as the other structures at the site. Therefore, slab+gravel system should be placed over a section of properly moisture -conditioned and compacted fill to reduce the post -construction heave and make that heave more uniform, Heave will not be eliminated, however. Fill section alternatives with associated post -construction movement estimates are provided under Alternative Shallow Foundations in the Foundation Systems section of this report. It must be understood that even with a properly placed fill section beneath it, distress to the relatively lightly loaded containment slab likely will result from post -construction soil movements. The containment slab should be adequately reinforced, Recommendations based on structural considerations for slab thickness, jointing, and steel reinforcement in floor slabs should be developed by the structural engineer. An allowable vertical soil modulus (l(„) of 45 pci may be used for design of concrete slabs bearing on a properly prepared fill section. Job No. 10-3022 GROUND Engineering Consultants, Inc. Page 16 Subsurface Exploration Program Geoteohnioal Recommendations Anadarko KMG 19-3i Facility Weld County, Colorado The containment should be provided with effective control joints. ACI recommendations should be followed regarding construction and/or control joints, at minimum. Prior to placement of the aggregate base course, a proof roll should be performed to identify areas beneath the containment slab that exhibit instability and deflection. The soils in these areas should be removed and replaced with properly compacted fill or otherwise stabilized. Effective surface drainage to carry water away from the containment slab should be incorporated into project civil design. Concrete Scaling Climatic conditions in the project area including relatively low humidity, large temperature changes and repeated freeze -- thaw cycles, make it likely that project sidewalks and other exterior concrete will experience surficial scaling or spilling. The likelihood of concrete scaling can be increased by poor workmanship during construction, such as `over -finishing' the surfaces. In addition, the use of de-icing salts on exterior concrete flatwork, particularly during the first winter after construction, will increase the likelihood of scaling. Even use of de-icing salts on nearby roadways, from where vehicle traffic can transfer them to newly placed concrete, can be sufficient to induce scaling. Typical quality control / quality assurance tests that are performed during construction for concrete strength, air content, etc., do not provide information with regard to the properties and conditions that give rise to scaling. We understand that some municipalities require removal and replacement of concrete that exhibits scaling, even if the material was within specification and placed correctly. The contractor should be aware of the local requirements and be prepared to take measures to reduce the potential for scaling and/or replace concrete that scales. In GROUND's experience the measures below can be beneficial for reducing the likelihood of concrete scaling. (These measures are applicable to other project concrete, as well.) It must be understood, however, that because of the other factors involved, including weather conditions and workmanship, surface damage to concrete can develop, even where all of these measures were followed. The mix design criteria should be coordinated with other project requirements including the criteria for sulfate resistance presented in the Water -Soluble Sulfates section of this report.

This commonly will require fogging, blanketing and/or tenting, depending on the weather conditions. As long as 3 to 4 weeks of curing may be required, and possibly more. 6) Avoid placement of concrete during cold weather so that it is exposed to freeze - thaw cycling before it is fully cured. 7) Avoid the use of de-icing salts on given reaches of fiatwork through the first winter after construction, PROJECT EARTHWORK The already had been graded at the time of our field exploration. Only limited cuts and fills are anticipated to achieve final grades. Deeper earthwork will be necessary to comply with the remedial earthwork criteria discussed herein for project structures, etc. Use of Existing Fill Soils as Fill Clayey fill soils were encountered locally in select test holes during subsurface exploration. In general, these appeared suitable for use as compacted fill if free of trash, organic material, construction debris, and other deleterious materials, Fragments of rock, cobbles, and inert construction debris (e.g., concrete or asphalt) larger than 3 inches in maximum dimension will require special handling and/or placement to be incorporated into project fills. in general, such materials should be placed as deeply as possible in the project fills. A geotechnical engineer should be consulted regarding appropriate recommendations for usage of such materials on a case -by -case basis when such materials have been identified during earthwork. Standard recommendations that likely will be generally applicable can be found in Job No. 10-3022 GROUND Engineering Consultants, Inc. Page 16 Subsurface Exploration Program Geotechrricai Recommendations Anadarko KMG 19-3i Facility Weld County, Colorado Section 203 of the current CDOT Standard Specifications for Road and Bridge Construction. Use of Excavated Bedrock Materials as Fill Excavated claystone, siltstone and sandstone that are free of coal, trash, and other deleterious materials are suitable, in general, for placement as compacted fill. Organic materials should not be incorporated into project fills. Because of the high swell potentials, excavated bedrock will require a well -coordinated effort to moisture treat, process, place, and compact properly. In -place bedrock deposits were dense and relatively dry, and require a significant volume of water to be mixed into the excavated material to bring it to a uniform moisture content as recommended in Appendix C. Bedrock fragments larger than 3 inches in maximum dimension should not be incorporated into project fills. Adequate watering, and compaction equipment that aids in breaking down the material (e,g., a Caterpillar 825 compactor -roller), likely will be needed. Excavated bedrock will require additional moisture conditioning and processing in an open area outside of utility trenches or foundation excavations prior to placement as backfill. Potential earthwork contractors should be made aware that significant processing and reprocessing of the on -site materials will likely be required. Immediately following placement and compaction, drive samples of the fill materials should be obtained and tested to determine the resultant swell -potential of the in -place materials. Materials represented by samples exhibiting more than 1 percent swell upon wetting against a 1,000 psf surcharge should be re -worked at increased moisture contents and re -compacted in accordance with the recommendations above. In addition, we suggest that the contractor consider pre-processing bedrock -derived fill materials prior to placement to facilitate achievement of this heave requirement. Imported Fill Materials If it is necessary to import material to the site, the imported soils should be free of organic material, and other deleterious materials. Imported material should consist of relatively impervious soils that have less than 80 percent passing the No. 200 Sieve and should have a plasticity index of less than 25. Representative samples of the materials proposed for import should be tested and approved by a geotechnical engineer prior to transport to the site. Job No. 10.3022 GROUND Engineering Consultants, Inc. Page 19 Subsurface Exploration Program Geotechnical Recommendations Anadarko KMG 19-3i Facility word County, Colorado Fill Placement and Compaction Detailed geotechical recommendations for fill placement and compaction are provided in Appendix C. Settlements Settlements will occur in filled ground, typically on the order of 'I to 2 percent of the fill depth. If fill placement is performed properly and is tightly controlled, in GROUND's experience the majority (on the order of 60 to 80 percent) of that settlement will typically take place during earthwork construction, provided the contractor achieves the compaction levels recommended herein. The remaining potential settlements likely will take several months or longer to be realized, and may be exacerbated if these fills are subjected to changes in moisture content. Cut and Filled Slopes Permanent site slopes supported by on -site soils up to 3 feet in height may be constructed no steeper than 2h/:1 (horizontal ; vertical), Minor raveling or surficial sloughing should be anticipated on slopes cut at this angle until vegetation is well re-established. Surface drainage should be designed to direct water away from slope faces. Excavation Considerations Test holes TH-1 through -5 were advanced to the depths indicated on the test hole logs by means of conventional truck -mounted drilling equipment. We anticipate no unusual excavation difficulties, in general, for the proposed construction in the site soils with conventional, heavy-duty excavating equipment in good working condition. However, although no unusually well cemented, hard or resistant sandstone beds were encountered in the bedrock, although such beds and lenses have been encountered in the shallow bedrock in the project area. The contractor should be prepared to excavate beds of very hard resistant sandstone and to handle, process, and, if necessary, export such materials. Specialized breaking equipment or limited local blasting may be cost effective to reach project lines and grades, especially for utility installation. Groundwater was not encountered during subsurface exploration in the shallower test holes (as deep as 35+ feet). Therefore, groundwater is not anticipated to be a significant factor for excavating to shallow depths during construction of this project. Drilled pier holes, however, may encounter groundwater. Job No. 1O-3022 GROUND Engineering Consultants, Inc. Page 20 Subsurface Exploration Program Gootochnical Recommendations Anadarko KMG 19-3i Facility Weld County, Colorado The contractor should take pro -active measures to control surface waters during construction, to direct them away from excavations and into appropriate drainage structures. (lf seepage or groundwater is encountered in shallow project excavations, the geotechnical engineer should evaluate the conditionsand provide additional recommendations, as appropriate.) Temporary Excavation Slopes We recommend that temporary, un-shored excavation slopes up to 15 feet in height be cut no steeper than 11/2 :1 (horizontal : vertical) in the native bedrock in the absence of seepage. Some surticial sloughing may occur on slope faces cut at this angle. Local conditions encountered during construction such as; loose, dry sand, soft, wet materials, or seepage will require flatter slopes. Stockpiling of materials should not be permitted closer to the tops of temporary slopes than 5 feet or a distance equal to the depth of the excavation, which ever is greater. Should site constraints prohibit the use of the recommended slope angle, then temporary shoring should be used. Temporary shoring designed to allow the soils to deflect sufficiently to utilize the full active strength of the soils may be designed for lateral earth pressures computed taking an equivalent fluid unit weight of 60 pounds per cubic foot (pcf) to be characteristic of the site soils for a level adjacent ground condition in the absence of seepage. In addition to this lateral earth pressure, shoring design should include surcharge loads exerted by equipment, traffic, seepage forces, material stockpiles, etc. Actual shoring system(s) should be designed for the contractor by a registered engineer. WATER-SOLUBLE SULFATES The concentrations of water-soluble sulfates measured in selected samples retrieved from the test holes ranged up to 1.0 percent by weight, (See Table 2.) Such concentrations of water-soluble sulfates represent a severe environment for sulfate attack on concrete exposed to these materials. Degrees of attack are based on the scale of 'negligible,' 'moderate,' 'severe' and 'very severe' as described in the "Design and Control of Concrete Mixtures," published by the Portland Cement Association (PGA). Job No, 10-3022 GROUND Englneering Consultants, Inc. Page 21 Subsurface Exploration Program Geotechnical Recommendations Anadarko IIMG 19-31 Facility Weld County, Colorado Based on these data and PCA and Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) guidelines, GROUND recommends use of sulfate -resistant cement in all concrete exposed to site soil and bedrock, conforming to one of the following requirements: 1) Type V, as specified by ASTM O150. 2) Type II with a maximum C3A content of 5 percent and a maximum content of (C4AF +2[C3A]) of 25 percent. 3) Type II or Type III I, and 15 to 20 percent of the cement shall be replaced with an approved Type F fly ash. 4) A blended cement conforming to Type HS, as specified by ASTM O1157. Other cement types or blends may be acceptable, however, if type -specific test data demonstrate equal or superior sulfate -resistance to Type V cement. Test data should be provided to a geotechnical engineer for review, and the cement approved, prior to use, All concrete exposed to site soil and bedrock should have a maximum waterlcement ratio of 0.45 by weight. AIJ concrete exposed to site soil and bedrock should have a minimum compressive strength of 4,500 psi. Concrete mixes should be relatively rich and should be air entrained. The contractor should be aware that certain concrete mix components affecting sulfate resistance including, but not limited to, the cement, entrained air, and fly ash, can affect workability, set time, and other characteristics during placement, finishing and curing. The contractor should develop mix(es) for use in project concrete which are suitable with regard to these construction factors, as well as sulfate resistance_ A reduced, but still significant, sulfate resistance may be acceptable to the owner, in exchange for desired construction characteristics. SOIL CORROSIVITY The degree of risk for corrosion of metals in soils commonly is considered to be in two categories: corrosion in undisturbed soils and corrosion in disturbed soils. The potential Job No. 10-3022 GROUND Engineering Consultants, Inc. Page 22 Subsurface Exploration Program Geotechnical Recommendations Anadarko KIM 19-3i f=acility Weld County, Colorado for corrosion in undisturbed soil is generally low, regardless of soil types and conditions, because it is limited by the amount of oxygen that is available to create an electrolytic cell. In disturbed soils, the potential for corrosion typically is higher, but is strongly affected by soil conditions for a variety of reasons but primarily soil chemistry. A corrosivity analysis was performed to provide a general assessment of the potential for corrosion of ferrous metals installed in contact with earth materials at the site, based on the conditions existing at the time of GROUND's evaluation. Soil chemistry and physical property data including pH, oxidation-reduction (redox) potential, sulfides, and moisture content were obtained. Test results are summarized on Table 2. Reduction -Oxidation: Reduction and oxidation testing indicated negative potentials: -24 to -55 millivolts. Such a low potentials typically creates a more corrosive environment. Sulfide Reactivity: Sulfide reactivity testing for the presence of sulfides indicated a "trace" and a "positive" result in the native claystones. The presence of sulfides in the site soils suggests a more corrosive environment. Soil Resistivity In order to assess the "worst case" for mitigation planning, samples of materials retrieved from the test holes were tested for resistivity in the laboratory, after being saturated with water, rather than in the field. Resistivity also varies inversely with temperature. Therefore, the laboratory measurements were made at a controlled temperature. Measurements of electrical resistivity indicated values of approximately 1,502 and 1,168 ohm -centimeters in samples of the site earth materials. pH Where pH is less than 4.0, soil serves as an electrolyte; the pH range of about 6.5 to 7.5 indicates soil conditions that are optimum for sulfate reduction. In the pH range above 8.5, soils are generally high in dissolved salts, yielding a low soil resistivity3. Testing indicated pH values of approximately 7.4 and 7.9 in the native claystones. 3,3 American Water Works Association ANSI/AWWA el 051A21.5-05 Standard Job No. 10-3022 GROUND Engineering Consultants, inc. Page 23 Subsurface Exploration Program Geotechnical Recommendations Anadarko KMG 19-3i Facility Weld County, Cororado The American Water Works Association (AWWA) has developed a point system scale used to predict corrosivity. The scale is intended for protection of ductile iron pipe but is valuable for project steel selection. When the scale equals 10 points or higher, protective measures for ductile iron pipe are recommended. The AWWA scare is presented below. The soil characteristics refer to the conditions at and above pipe installation depth.

Job No. 10-3022 GROUND Engineering Consultants, Inc. Page 24 Subsurface Exploration Program Geotechnical Recommendations Anadarko KMG 19-3i Facility Weld County. Colorado We anticipate that drainage at the site after construction will be good. Nevertheless, based on the values obtained for the soil parameters, the overburden soils/bedrock appear(s) to comprise a highly corrosive environment for metals. Corrosive conditions can be addressed by use of materials not vulnerable to corrosion, heavier gauge materials (increased pipe wall/metal thickness) with longer design lives, polyethylene encasement, or cathodic protection systems. If additional information or recommendations are needed regarding soil corrosivity, GROUND recommends contacting the American Water Works Association or a Corrosion Engineer. It should be noted, however, that changes to the site conditions during construction, such as the import of other soils, or the intended or unintended introduction of off -site water, may alter corrosion potentials significantly. BURIED UTILITY LATERAL INSTALLATION Recommendations regarding excavation of utility lateral trenches are provided in the Project Earthwork section of this report and Appendix C. The resultant voids may be difficult to backfill with conventional means and methods. Particular care, including the use of CLSM, may be needed to backfill trenches properly. On -site soils — primarily bedrock materials — excavated from trenches are suitable, in general, for use as trench backfill. Backfill soils should be free of vegetation, trash and other deleterious materials.. Pipe bedding materials, placement and compaction should meet the specifications of the pipe manufacturer and applicable municipal standards. The contractor should not anticipate that significant volumes of suitable materials will be available on -site where relatively free -draining bedding materials are called for. Imported materials proposed for use as pipe bedding should be tested and approved by a geotechnical engineer prior to transport to the site. Trench backfill materials above the pipe bedding zone where CLSM is not used (as discussed in Appendix C.) should be conditioned to a uniform moisture content, placed in uniform lifts not exceeding 8 inches in loose thickness, and properly compacted. Recommendations for backfill placement and compaction are provided in Appendix C. Job No. 10-3022 GROUND Engineering Consultants, Inc. Page 25 Subsurface Exploration Program Geotechnical Recommendations Anadarko KMG 19-3i Facility Weld County, Colorado Bedding should be brought up uniformly on both sides of the pipe to reduce differential loadings. Some settlement of trench backfill materials should be anticipated, even where materials are placed and compacted correctly. To reduce these settlements, the Contractor should take adequate measures to achieve adequate compaction in the utility trench backfills, particularly in the lower portions of the excavations and around manholes, valve risers and other vertical pipeline elements where greater settlements commonly are observed. However, the need to compact to the lowest portion of the backfill must be balanced against the need to protect the pipe from damage during backfilling. Some thickness of backfill may need to be placed at compaction levels lower than recommended above to avoid damaging the pipe. Likewise, construction conditions may preclude density testing at specified frequencies in the lower portions of a trench. Because of these limitations, we recommend the use of "controlled low strength material" (CLSM), i.e_, a lean, sand -cement slurry, "flowable fill," or similar material in lieu of compacted soil backfill for areas with low tolerances for surface settlements. Placement of CLSM in the lower portion of the trench and around risers, etc., likely will yield a superior backfill and provide protection for the pipe, although at an increased cost. Other means, e.g., use of smaller compaction equipment, also may be effective for achieving adequate compaction in these areas. We assume that surface drainage will direct water away from utility trench alignments. Where topography, site constraints or other factors limit or preclude adequate surface drainage, the granular bedding materials should be surrounded by non -woven filter fabric (e.g., Mirafie 140N or the equivalent) to reduce migration of fines into the bedding which can result in severe, local settlements. Development of site grading plans should consider the subsurface transfer of water in utility trenches and the pipe bedding. Granular pipe bedding materials can function as efficient conduits for re -distribution of natural and applied waters in the subsurface. Cut- off walls in utility trenches or other water -stopping measures should be implemented to reduce the rates and volumes of water transmitted along utility alignments and toward Jab No. 10-3022 GROUND Engineering Consultants, Inc. Page 26 Subsurface Exploration Program Geoteohnical Recommendations Anadarko KMG 19-3i Facility Weld County, Colorado tank and other structures where excessive wetting of the underlying soils will be damaging, SURFACE DRAINAGE The following drainage measures are recommended for design, construction, and should be maintained at all times after the project has been completed: 1) Wetting or drying of the foundation excavations and underslab areas should be avoided during and after construction as well as throughout the improvements' design life_ Permitting increases/variations in moisture to the adjacent or supporting soils may result in a decrease in bearing capacity and an increase in volume change of the underlying soils and/or differential movement. 2) Positive surface drainage measures should be provided and maintained to reduce water infiltration into foundation soils. The ground surface surrounding the exterior of each structure should be sloped to drain away from the foundation in all directions. We recommend that, to the extent possible, a minimum slope of 12 inches in the first 10 feet in the areas not covered with pavement or concrete slabs, or a minimum 3 percent in the first 10 feet in the areas covered with pavement or concrete slabs. In no case should water be allowed to pond near or adjacent to foundation elements or utility trench alignments, etc. 3) The berms surrounding this site will tend to direct water toward the proposed structures. Area drains or other measures should be included in project design between structures and the slopes. 4) Roof downspouts and drains should be provided with positive conveyance off - site for collected waters. 5) We do not anticipate that significant landscaping will be installed around the proposed structures. If vegetation that requires watering is planted, it should be located 10 or more feet from structure perimeters or other site improvements. Landscape irrigation outside that 10 -foot limit should be limited to the minimum quantities necessary to sustain healthy plant growth, Controlling rates of Job No. 10-3022 GROUND Engineering Consultants, Inc.

Perforated "weed barrier" membranes that allow ready evaporation from the underlying soils may be used. CLOSURE Geotechnical Review The author of this report should be retained to review project plans and specifications to evaluate whether they comply with the intent of the recommendations in this report. The review should be requested in writing. The geotechnical recommendations presented in this report are contingent upon observation and testing of project earthworks by representatives of GROUND. If another geotechnical consultant is selected to provide materials testing, then that consultant must assume all responsibility for the geotechnical aspects of the project by concurring in writing with the recommendations in this report, or by providing alternative recommendations. Materials Testing Anadarko Petroleum should consider retaining a geotechnical engineer to perform materials testing during construction. The performance of such testing or lack thereof, in no way alleviates the burden of the contractor or subcontractor from constructing in a manner that conforms to applicable project documents and industry standards. The contractor or pertinent subcontractor is ultimately responsible for managing the quality of their work; furthermore, testing by a geotechnical engineer does not preclude the contractor from obtaining or providing whatever services they deem necessary to complete the project in accordance with applicable documents. Limitations This report has been prepared for Anadarko Petroleum as it pertains to design and construction of the KMG 19-3i facility as described herein. It may not contain sufficient information for other parties or other purposes. The owner or any prospective buyer relying upon this report must be made aware of and must agree to the terms, conditions, and liability limitations outlined in the proposal. Job No. 1D-3622 GROUND EnglneerEng Consultants, Inc. Page 28 Subsurface Exploration Program Gootechnical Recommendations Anadarko KMG 19-3i Facility Weld County, Colorado In addition, GROUND has assumed that project construction will commence by Summer 2011. Any changes in project plans or schedule should be brought to the attention of a geotechnical engineer, in order that the geotechnical recommendations may be re- evaluated and, as necessary, modified. The geotechnical conclusions and recommendations in this report relied upon subsurface exploration at a limited number of exploration points, as shown on Figure 1, as well as the means and methods described herein. Subsurface conditions were interpolated between and extrapolated beyond these locations. It is not possible to guarantee the subsurface conditions are as indicated in this report. Actual conditions exposed during construction may differ from those encountered during site exploration. If during construction, surface, soil, bedrock, or groundwater conditions appear to be at variance with those described herein, a geotechnical engineer should be advised at once, so that re-evaluation of the recommendations may be made in a timely manner. In addition, a contractor who relies upon this report for development of his scope of work or cost estimates may find the geotechnical information in this report to be inadequate for his purposes or find the geotechnical conditions described herein to be at variance with his experience in the greater project area. The contractor is responsible for obtaining the additional geotechnical information that is necessary to develop his workscope and cost estimates with sufficient precision. This includes current depths to groundwater, etc. The materials present on -site are stable at their natural moisture content, but may change volume or lose bearing capacity or stability with changes in moisture content. Performance of the proposed structure will depend on implementation of the recommendations in this report and on proper maintenance after construction is completed.

These soil conditions have the potential to damage the proposed improvements. Expansive Soils Heave Various quantitative and semi -quantitative methods are used by geotechnical engineers in the Colorado Front Range area to estimate post -construction heave of structures, pavements, etc., as a step toward development of recommendations for foundations, remedial earthworks, etc. Those typically used are based on practical engineering experience and judgment using combinations of measured values of soil moisture content, density and plasticity, one-dimensional swell/consolidation, and/or soil suction. The recommendations and criteria provided in this report were based on the data presented herein, and our experience in the general project area with similar structures, and our engineering judgment with regard to the applicability of the data and methods of forecasting future performance. A variety of engineering parameters were considered as indicators of potential future soil movements_ Our recommendations were based on our judgment of "likely movement potentials," (i.e., the amount of movement likely to be realized if site drainage is generally effective, estimated to a reasonable degree of engineering certainty) as well as ❑ur assumptions about the owner's willingness to accept geotechnical risk. "Maximum possible" movement estimates necessarily will be larger than those presented herein. They also have a significantly lower likelihood of being realized in our opinion, and generally require more expensive measures to address. We encourage the client and owner, upon receipt of this report, however, to discuss these risks and the geotechnical alternatives with us. At any point in the design life of a structure, the vertical and lateral extents of future wetting and expansion of the underlying soils will exert a dominant influence on the extent and distribution of future uplift experience by improvements constructed on those soils. Professional experience and opinions differ with regard to depths to which significant, post -construction, soil moisture and volume changes take place.. Differing assumptions regarding future 'depth of heave' and 'depth of wetting' at a site will give rise to differing estimates of potential, total, post -construction vertical movements. Job No. 10-3022 GROUND Engineering Consultants, Inc. A-1 Movement estimates based depths of heave and wetting that are much deeper than typically estimated will be larger than those based on more typically observed depths. Engineering consulting and design practice always involves weighing the risks inherent in a given design approach against the construction costs associated with reducing those risks. The owner (and subsequent, prospective future owners) must, therefore, understand the risks and remedial approaches presented in this report (and the risk -cost trade-offs addressed by the civil engineer and structural engineer) in order to direct his design team to the portion of the Higher Cost I Lower Risk — Lower Cost I Higher Risk spectrum in which this project should be (or was) designed. If the owner does not understand these risks, it is critical that he request additional information or clarification so that his expectations reasonably can be met. Depfh of Heave 'Depth of Heave' refers to the depth above which the stresses exerted by the clay particles as they take up water and expand exceeds the downward roads imposed by the weight of the overlying soils and improvements. Below this depth, even when exposed to water the clay particles cannot expand. This depth varies with clay mineralogy and, therefore, from site to site. Practically, it is an averaged parameter as the clay mineralogy varies laterally and layer to layer in the earth materials. Some geotechnical engineers determine this depth as a percentage of the pressure needed to re -compress an expanded soil sample back to its pre -wetted thickness in a one-dimensional swell -consolidation test performed at a relatively light load. Because of the alterations of the clay mineral structures as water is taken into them, however, determinations based on this approach, in our experience, typically lead to over -estimates of the depth of heave. As part of this study, GROUND measured swells exhibited by samples of the site soils against the approximate overburden loads applying to the soils in their natural setting, if wetted. Because structural loads vary across a site and for a limited amount of additional conservatism, the loads applied by the proposed improvements were ignored. The resultant data set allows the 'depth of heave' to be estimated for the site. Based on the swell -consolidation test data that we obtained for this site, it is GROUND's conclusion that the earth materials at this site are characterized by a 'depth of heave' of about 24 feet. This does not mean that no soil layer at a depth greater than this depth can swell at all, but that such layers are few and the contribution of such layers to the total, estimated heave for the site generally is not significant. Job No. 10-3022 GROUND Engineering Consultants, Inc. A-2 Depth of Wetting At this site, GROUND estimated a depth of wetting of 20 feet, a depth that is equal to or greater than the "depth of wetting" found at about 68 percent of the sites studied by Walsh and others (2006)', and about 70 percent of the sites evaluated by Walsh and others (2009).2 This "'depth of wetting" is appropriately conservative in our opinion for this project. There is, however, a potential for this ."depth -of wetting" to be exceeded, which if considered other parameters being equal — would lead to greater estimates of post -construction movements. "Depths of wetting' of 30, 40 or 70 feet or more have been considered (e.g., Chao and others, 2006)3 and have been encountered locally in the field, These cases, however, generally are in unusual geologic conditions such as the 'Designated Dipping Bedrock Area" as recognized by Jefferson County, Colorado, or identified forensically in unusual circumstances such as a pipe leak that has remained un- repaired for an extended period. However, in more typical geologic settings in this area, such greater "depths of wetting" are considered only rarely in engineering consulting practice. Mine -Related Subsidence Construction over or near abandoned underground mine workings subject to consolidation entails a risk of surface subsidence or settlement if the workings collapse at depth and that volume loss propagates to the surface. The degree of risk depends on multiple factors. These include the thickness of the mined out seam and the degree to which consolidation already has been realized — both of which affect the maximum magnitude of potential surface settlement — and the depth of the mine workings which affects the extent of the affected area as well as the settlement realized at the ground surface. The magnitude of potential, mine -related subsidence commonly is estimated using the methodology of the National Coal Board (1975)4, That methodology is an empirical approach based on recorded subsidence at various underground of mines. This approach can be used to estimate both vertical settlements and secondary horizontal Walsh, K.D., C.A. Colby, W.N. Houston and S.A.

Job No. 10.3022 GROUND Engineering Consultants, Inc. A-3 strains that result from conventional collapse of underground workings. It is not applicable to locations where vertical excavations (shafts) are present near the subject location, GROUND used the National Coal Board methodology to estimate potential surface subsidence at this site. This approach is dependent upon several geometric parameters, principally the depth, and the lateral and vertical extents of mining, and the position of point in question relative to the surface projection of the mined out volume. Again, GROUND's recommendations were based on our judgment of "likely potential settlements," not maximum possible settlements, particularly when some of the input parameters were estimated, "Maximum possible" estimates of settlement will be larger than those presented herein. Whereas expansive soils heave will be realized to at least some extent relatively shortly after soils or bedrock containing expansive clays has become wetted, estimation of the likelihood of potential, mine -related subsidence being realized in a given area during a given period of time (such as the design -life of a structure) is more difficult to estimate. It does not appear to be a strong function of the potential magnitude of subsidence. Instead, it appears to depend more on whether shafts for hoisting or ventilation were excavated near the location of interest, and how shallow the former mine workings are. For perspective, it should be noted that significant portions of the towns and areas surrounding Lafayette, Erie, Firestone, etc., have been constructed over mine workings at similar depths in the Laramie Formation. The great majority of structures in these areas have not been adversely affected by mine -related subsidence. Nonetheless, the risk of such subsidence is not zero. Again, we encourage the owner, upon receipt of this report, however, to discuss these risks and the geotechnical alternatives with us. Likely Post -Construction Movements Because soils must be both wetted after construction and capable of heaving against the load imposed on them in order to lift and damage near -surface structures, the shallower of the `depth of heave' and 'depth of wetting' at a site limits estimates of that movement. GROUND considers the values discussed above to be representative of the site and appropriate for the proposed construction. However, if the owner prefers a more conservative (or less conservative) 'depth of wetting' (or 'depth of heave') to be used to develop geotechnical parameters for design, GROUND should be contacted to revise the criteria provided herein. Job No. 10.3022 GROUND Engineering Consultants, Inc. A-4 Utilizing the above assumptions, data obtained for this study, and our experience on other projects in the vicinity, our estimates indicate post -construction vertical movements on the order of 6 to 8 inches where building elements are supported directly on the existing earth materials that become wetted following construction to the depth described. (Lateral movements would result, as well,) Because of the timbers recovered in the cores at Test Hole 7, we have assumed that the mining beneath the site was room -and -pillar type mining, not 'long -wall" mining that removes all the coal. On this basis we have assumed that the width of mined coal comprising a given `room' was 40 to 60 feet (12 to 18 meters). A depth of 175 feet (53 meters) was used for the depth of mining. Based on the conditions encountered in the test holes, the thickness of 2 to 3 feet (0.6 to 0,9 meter) was used for the thickness of the void remaining at depth that could collapse. Using these ranges of input parameters, potential ground surface settlements of about 1% to 5!% inches were estimated. (Because no mine shafts were indicated on the maps reviewed by GROUND in the vicinity of the project, we consider the likelihood of a severe subsidence event to be very low.) Base on our experience, we anticipate that surface settlements will be irregular in occurrence with most areas seeing little or no subsidence. In GROUND's opinion, settlements of 3 to 4 inches across an area about 100 feet in dimension are likely where surface settlements are realized. Based on the depth of mining and the lack of mapped shafts near the site, we consider the likelihood to be moderate of such an area of settlement developing somewhere within the overall footprint of the subject facility during its design life. The likelihood of any specific structure being affected is considered low. Comparison of the two movement mechanisms suggests that the potential for distress from expansive soils heave is greater than from mine -related subsidence. It is also, in our opinion, more likely to be realized. Movements of these magnitudes can cause signficant cosmetic and/or structural distress to the proposed structures. (These same general potentials for post -construction movement and damage also apply to project pavements, hardscaping, piping, and all other improvements in contact with the site earth materials where subject to post -construction wetting.) General Foundation Types At the subject site, several types of foundation systems, in conjunction with differing extents of remedial earthworks, etc., can be employed to support the proposed structures on the soils and bedrock encountered in the test holes. Each combination entails a different degree of risk of post -construction foundation movements from expansive soils heave. These range from utilizing shallow spread footings and slab -on - Job No. 10-3022 GROUND Engineering Consultants, Inc. A-6 grade concrete floors bearing directly on the native earth materials (entailing the greatest risk) to supporting the structures, including floors, on deep, drilled pier foundations bearing in the underlying bedrock at depths of more than 70 feet (entailing the least risk among typically employed foundation types). Some research, in fact, has concluded that drilled piers as long as 100 feet or more may be needed to resist uplift in expansive materialssuch as_those encountered on -site. None of these foundation types can mitigate the potential for settlement if a portion the site experiences settlement resulting from consolidation of a portion of the mine workings at depths, however. GROUND recommends that the proposed buildings and related structures be supported on drilled pier foundation systems, and the tanks and other structures with floors, provided with structural floors supported similarly. We assume that 70+ -foot piers are not practical economically for the subject project because such depths are not required to support the structural loads. (It should be noted in this regard that many lightly to moderately loaded commercial and residential structures in the Colorado Front Range area have been supported successfully in similar materials on 20- to 40 -foot piers.) Therefore, in the absence of direction otherwise from CH2M Hill or Anadarko Petroleum, we have assumed that the Anadarko Petroleum prefers to consider drilled piers of more conventional lengths for this project The geotechnical criteria provided in the Building Foundations section of this report for design of a drilled pier foundation system were developed accordingly. Although a drilled pier foundation system incorporating these criteria will not eliminate the risk of past -construction building movement, if the measures outlined in this report are implemented effectively, the likelihood of acceptable building performance to a reasonable degree of engineering certainty will be within local industry standards for construction of a drilled pier foundation system on soils and bedrock of this nature. Based on the conditions encountered in GROUND's test holes, the assumptions outlined herein, including effective maintenance of site drainage, we estimate post - construction movements from heave and/or settlement of drilled pier foundations to be on the order of 'A inch in the absence of mine -related subsidence_ GROUND is available to meet, however, to discuss the risks and remedial approaches presented in this report, as well as other potential approaches, upon request. On -Going Maintenance Irrespective of the foundation system and floor system selected by the City of Lone Tree, some risk of post -construction building and floor movements will remain, even after effective implementation of the recommendations in this report. The City of Lone Tree should understand these risks, as well as the site maintenance measures that are Job No. 10-3022 GROUND Engineering Consultants, Inc. A•6 necessary to manage them. Other elements of the proposed improvements on this site (hardscaping, pavements, etc.) will be underlain by expansive earth materials, and likely will be damaged. Owner tolerances for movement and distress to these appurtenant improvements typically is greater than for buildings. Nevertheless, periodic maintenance will be required. To achieve performance similar to that of the building floors, similar foundation .measures will be required. We recommend that maintenance personnel for the subject buildings familiarize themselves with the measures presented in Noe (2007)5 and implement them at this site. This booklet is available from the Colorado Geological Survey in Denver, Colorado, and can be purchased from their website. (www.geosurvey.state.co.us). Although written for residential construction on expansive soils, the concepts and recommendations outlined therein are generally applicable to other building types, as well. 5 Noe, D.G., 2007, A Guide to Swelling Soils for Colorado Homebuyers and Homeowners, Colorado Geological Survey, Special Publication 43, 2"d Edition. Job No. 10.3022 GROUND Engineering Consultants, Inc. A-7 APPENDIX B Recommendations for Foundation and Floor System Construction FOUNDATION AND FLOOR SYSTEM CONSTRUCTION Drilled Pier Foundations I. Because groundwater was encountered locally and groundwater conditions can fluctuate, the contractor should be prepared to complete the piers in the .preence of groundwater, including the use of casing. In no case, should concrete be placed in more than 3 inches of water, unless placed through an approved tremie method. II. Pier holes should be properly cleaned prior to placement of concrete. Ill. Concrete utilized in the piers should be a fluid mix with sufficient slump so that it will fill the void between reinforcing steel and the pier hole wall. We recommend the concrete have a minimum slump in the range of 5 to 7 inches, Concrete should be placed by an approved tremie or other method to reduce mix segregation. IV. Where water or slurry is present in the drilled pier hole, including outside of a casing that will be withdrawn from the hole, the concrete placed for the pier should have sufficient slump and be placed with sufficient head maintained above groundwater levels so that the concrete is not displaced in the body of the pier by water, soil, slurry, etc., leading to effective voids in the pier. Slurry, if used, must be fully displaced by the concrete. V. Concrete should be placed in piers the same day they are drilled. Failure to place concrete the day of drilling will normally result in a requirement for additional bedrock penetration. The presence of groundwater or caving soils may require that concrete be placed immediately after the pier hole drilling is completed. VI. The contractor should take care to prevent enlargement of the excavation at the tops of piers, which could result in mushrooming of the pier top. Mushrooming of pier tops can increase uplift pressures on the piers. VII. GROUND recommends that sonic integrity testing be performed for an appropriate percentage of the drilled piers to assess the effectiveness of the pier construction methods for installing the piers in accordance with project plans and specifications. VIII. Although not encountered in the test holes, beds and lenses of very hard, resistant bedrock materials are known to be present. Difficult to very difficult drilling conditions Job No. 09-3845 GROUND Engineering Consultants, Inc. B-1 may be encountered during pier hole drilling. The contractor should be prepared to core lenses and beds of highly cemented materials. IX. In general, the pier -drilling contractor should mobilize equipment of sufficient size and operating capability to achieve the required penetration into the bedrock. We _._ suggest..the pier._drilling contractor advance a test hole with -the proposed.aquipment at least to the minimum anticipated depth prior to beginning pier installation to assess whether the equipment can reach the target depths. This test drilling should be performed sufficiently early in the construction process so that more powerful equipment can be mobilized if necessary without delaying to the project. If refusal is encountered in these materials either during the test program or during actual installation, the geotechnical engineer should evaluate the conditions to establish that true refusal has been met with adequate drilling equipment. X. A geotechnical engineer should be retained to observe pier drilling operations on a full time basis. Shallow Foundations I. The contractor should take care while making foundation excavations not to compromise the bearing or lateral support for nearby improvements. H. At each structure, the contractor should take care to construct a fill section beneath the building of uniform depth and composition to reduce differential post -construction foundation movements. A differential fill beneath a structure will tend to increase differential settlements. III. The contractor should provide surveyed data of the excavations beneath the buildings verifying that the remedial excavations were advanced to at least the selected depths and lateral extents. IV. The soils exposed at the surface on which the foundation fill section will be constructed should be tested for swell potential prior to placement of fill there. Additional excavation and replacement may be necessary in some areas. Job No. 69-3045 GROUND Engineering Consultants, Inc. B-2 V. Care should be taken when excavating the foundation to avoid disturbing the supporting materials. Hand excavation or careful backhoe soil removal may be required in excavating the last few inches. VI. Footing excavation bottoms may expose debris, loose or wet materials, organic or otherwise deleterious materials. Firm materials maybe disturbed by -the excavation process. All such unsuitable materials should be excavated and replaced with properly compacted fill. Recommendations for fill placement and compaction are provided in Appendix C. VII. Foundation soils may be disturbed or deform excessively under the wheel loads of heavy construction vehicles as the excavations approach footing levels. Construction equipment should be as light as possible to limit development of this condition. The use of track -mounted vehicles is suggested because they exert lower contact pressures. The movement of vehicles over proposed foundation areas should be restricted. VIII. All footing areas should be compacted with a vibratory plate compactor prior to placement of concrete. IX- Compacted fill placed against the sides of the footings should be compacted to at least 95 percent relative compaction in accordance with the recommendations in Appendix C. X, A geotechnical engineer should be retained to observe and test all footing excavations prior to placement of reinforcing steel or concrete. Job No. OR -3045 GROUND EnglneerIng Consultants, Inc. 8-3 APPENDIX C Recommendations for Earthwork Construction EARTHWORK CONSTRUCTION General Considerations Prior to earthwork construction, existing structures, vegetation and other deleterious rnateriais hould ire removed and disposed of off -site. Relic uhlergrbuhd utilities should be abandoned in accordance with applicable regulations, removed as necessary, and capped at the margins of the property. Excavations The contractor should take care when making excavations not to compromise the bearing or lateral support for the foundations of the adjacent, existing pavements or other improvements. Good surface drainage should be provided around temporary excavation slopes to direct surface runoff away from the slope faces_ A properly designed drainage swale should be provided at the top of the excavations. In no case should water be allowed to pond at the site. Slopes should also be protected against erosion. Erosion along the slopes will result in sloughing and could lead to a slope failure. Excavations in which personnel will be working must comply with all OSHA Standards and Regulations particularly GFR 29 Part 1926, OSHA Standards -Excavations, adopted March 5, 1990. The contractor's "responsible person" should evaluate the soil exposed in the excavations as part of the contractor's safety procedures. GROUND has provided the information in this report solely as a service to the City of Lone Tree, and is not assuming responsibility for construction site safety or the contractor's activities. Fill Platform Preparation Prior to filling, the top 8 to 12 inches of in -place materials on surfaces on which fill soils will be placed should be scarified, moisture conditioned and properly compacted in accordance with the recommendations below to provide a uniform base for fill placement. If surfaces to receive fill expose loose, wet, soft or otherwise deleterious material, additional material should be excavated, or other measures taken, to establish a firm platform for filling. The surfaces to receive fill must be effectively stable prior to Job No. 10-3022 GROUND Engineering Consultants, Inc. C-1 placement of fill. The contractor should anticipate encountering several feet of soft/loose and wet soils that typically will be unstable along the swale traversing the site. Fill Placement Fill materials should be thoroughly mixed to achieve a uniform moisture content, placed in uniform lifts not exceeding 8 inches in loose thickness, and properly compacted. Soils that classify as GP, GW, GM, GC, SP, SW, SM, or SC in accordance with the USCS classification system (granular materials) should be compacted to 95 or more percent of the maximum modified Proctor dry density at moisture contents within 2 percent of optimum moisture content as determined by ASTM D1557, the "modified Proctor-" Soils that classify as ML, MI -f, CL or CH, as well as all excavated bedrock materials, should be compacted to 95 percent of the maximum standard Proctor density at moisture contents from optimum moisture content to 4 percent above the optimum as determined by ASTM D698, the "standard Proctor." No fill materials should be placed, worked, rolled while they are frozen, thawing, or during poorinclement weather conditions. Where soils supporting foundations or on which foundation will be placed are exposed to freezing temperatures or repeated freeze — thaw cycling during construction — commonly due to water pending in foundation excavations — bearing capacity typically is reduced and/or settlements increased due to the loss of density in the supporting soils. After periods of freezing conditions, the contractor should re -work areas affected by the formation of ice to re-establish adequate bearing support. Care should be taken with regard to achieving and maintaining effective moisture contents during placement and compaction. We anticipate that the commonly silty site soils may exhibit significant pumping, rutting, and deflection at moisture contents above the optimum. In our experience, achieving and maintaining compaction in such soils can be very difficult if water contents are not monitored closely. The contractor should be prepared to handle soils of this type, including the use of chemical stabilization, if necessary. Compaction areas should be kept separate, and no lift should be covered by another until relative compaction and moisture content within the recommended ranges are obtained. Job No. 10-3022 GROUND Engineering Consultants, Inc. C.2 Use of Squeegee Relatively uniformly graded fine gravel or coarse sand, i.e., "squeegee," or similar materials commonly are proposed for backfilling foundation excavations, portions of utility trenches and other areas where employing compaction equipment is difficult. In general, GROUND does not recommend this procedure for the following reasons: Although commonly considered "self compacting," uniformly graded granular materials require densification after placement, typically by vibration. The equipment to densify these materials is not available on many job -sites. Even when properly densified, uniformly graded granular materials are permeable and allow water to reach and collect in the lower portions of the excavations backfilled with those materials. This leads to wetting of the underlying soils and resultant potential loss of bearing support as well as increased local heave or settlement. GROUND recommends that wherever possible, excavations be backfilled with approved, on -site soils placed as properly compacted fill. Where this is not feasible, use of "Controlled Low Strength Material" (CLSM), i.e., a lean, sand -cement slurry ("flowable fill") or a similar material for backfilling should be considered. Where "squeegee" or similar materials are proposed for use by the contractor, the design team should be notified by means of a Request for Information (RFI), so that the proposed use can be considered on a case -by -case basis. Where "squeegee" meets the project requirements for pipe bedding material, however, it is acceptable for that use. Utility Trench Backfilling The recommendations above for fill placement and compaction are applicable to construction of trench backf ills. Some settlement of trench backfill materials should be anticipated, even where materials are placed and compacted correctly. To reduce these settlements, the contractor should take adequate measures to achieve adequate compaction in the utility trench backfills, particularly in the lower portions of the excavations and around manholes, valve risers and other vertical pipeline elements where greater settlements commonly are observed. Job No. 10-3022 GROUND Engineering Consultants, Inc. C•3 However, the need to compact to the lowest portion of the backfill must be balanced against the need to protect the pipe from damage during backfilling. Some thickness of backfill may need to be placed at compaction levels lower than recommended in this report to avoid damaging the pipe. Likewise, construction conditions may preclude density testing at specified frequencies in the lower portions of a trench. Such backfilling methods will lead increased surface settlements. Because of these limitations, we recommend the use of "controlled low strength material" (CLSM), i.e., a lean, sand -cement slurry, "flowable fill,' or similar material in lieu of compacted soil backfill for areas with low tolerances for surface settlements. Placement of CLSM in the lower portion of the trench and around risers, etc., likely will yield a superior backfill and provide protection for the pipe, although at an increased cost. Other means, e.g., use of smaller compaction equipment, also may be effective for achieving adequate compaction in these areas. Settlements Settlements will occur in filled ground, typically on the order of 1 to 2 percent of the fill depth. For a 6 -foot fill, for example, this corresponds to settlement on the order of 1 inches, without imposition of foundation loads. If fill placement is performed properly and is tightly controlled, in GF CUND's experience the majority of that settlement will take place during earthwork construction. The remaining potential settlements likely will take several months or longer, to be realized. Job No.10-3022 GROUND Engineering Consultants, Inc.
