If a question does not pertain to your use, please respond with "not applicable". For assistance with some of these questions see this website: http://www.co.weld.co.us/Departments/PlanningZoning/Land UscAppl icati onsAssistance/Application Assistance.html Planning Questions: Planner on Call 970-353-6100 x3540 I . Explain, in detail, the proposed use of the property. The Applicant SS Hudson Storage, LLC is owned by Mr. Steve Sharp. Mr. Sharp is the owner of multiple entities engaged in business, or owning various surrounding properties, near the subject property. This questionnaire references Mr. Sharp interchangeably with the Applicant, as Mr. Sharp is the primary contact and decision-maker on behalf of the Applicant, as well as the other entities engaged nearby. Mr. Sharp desires to obtain this USR to be able to store oil rigs and other oilfield service equipment that are currently not being used in production on the area of his property depicted on the enclosed map, which is on parcel #130709200016. During periodic downturns in the oil and gas industry, Mr. Sharp has noticed oil companies have a need to park rigs and other equipment which are not in service, but which they desire to store locally for use when the market rebounds. Mr. Sharp does not anticipate any cleaning, maintenance, repairs, or welding being performed on the rigs and/or equipment being stored on this parcel. 2. Explain how this proposal is consistent with the intent of the Weld County Code, Chapter 22 of the Comprehensive Plan. This proposal is consistent with the intent of the Weld County Code, Chapter 22 of the Comprehensive Plan, because it "supports all forms of the agricultural industry and, at the same time, [it] protect[s] the rights of the private property owners to convert their agricultural lands to other appropriate land uses." Sec. 22-2-10(B). Mr. Sharp owns the subject parcel, which consists of 112 acres, as well as the 155-acre parcel adjacent to the east of the subject parcel. The subject 112 acres is non-irrigated, and although Mr. Sharp does allow a neighbor to grow some crops on the property, such as winter wheat, Mr. Sharp does not have a productive use for the land. The adjacent 155-acre parcel is irrigated farmland with a center- pivot, used for growing wheat. This proposal preserves the commitment to viable agriculture in Weld County because it continues the agricultural operation of the productive farmland owned by Mr. Sharp, but it would allow him to use the non-irrigated land for an appropriate use that is consistent with the surrounding area. Sec. 22-2-20(G)(7.2) ("Conversion of agricultural land to nonurban residential, commercial, and industrial uses should be accommodated when the subject site is in an area that can support such development, and should attempt to be compatible with the area."). Here, the proposed use is compatible with the existing and future development of the area. The surrounding land uses include residential, oil and gas production facilities and staging areas, and agricultural uses. Adequate services and facilities are currently available or reasonably obtainable to • accommodate the propose land use change. There are water and sewer services available in the structure owned by Mr. Sharp on the 34-acre parcel adjacent to the west of the subject parcel, as well as a fire suppression building with 30,000 gallons of water. Sec. 22-2- 10(H)(8). Mr. Sharp has been working closely with the Weld County Planning, Public Works, and Public Health, and the Colorado Division of Water Resources, and will continue to do so throughout this USR process. 3. Explain how this proposal is consistent with the intent of the Weld County Code, Chapter 23 (Zoning) and the zone district in which it is located. This proposal is consistent with the intent of the Weld County Code, Chapter 23, and the • zone district in which it is located. Mineral resource development facilities including (1 ) oil and gas storage facilities and (2) oil and gas support and service are permitted uses in the A (Agricultural) Zone District upon approval of a permit in accordance with the requirements • and procedures set forth in this section. Sec. 23-3-40(A)(1), (2). The property is not located within the I-25 Mixed Use Development area, an Intergovernmental Agreement Boundary, or in an approved or recorded subdivision plat. Sec. 23-3-40(S). 4. Describe what type of land uses surround the site, Explain how the proposed use is consistent and compatible with surrounding land uses. The surrounding uses include oil and gas storage facilities, agricultural, and scattered residential. The residential population density is very low, approximately 1 -4 residences per square mile. The proposed use of oil and gas rig and equipment storage is consistent with the surrounding use. Anadarko currently stores a tank battery on an adjacent parcel to the north. Mr. Sharp intends to maintain wheat farming operations on the adjacent parcel to the east of the subject parcel, and the oil and gas storage facilities and agricultural uses are consistent with the area. 5. What are the hours and days of operation? (e.g. Monday thru Friday 8:00 a.m. to 5 :00 p.m .) Mr. Sharp proposes that the site be open from 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. from Monday to Saturday, with the majority of activity expected between 9:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. 6. List the number of full time and/or part time employees proposed to work at this site. Mr. Sharp does not propose any employees to work at this site. 7. If shift work is proposed include the number of employees per shift. Not Applicable. 8. List the number of people who will use this site. Include contractors, truck drivers, customers, volunteers, etc. On average, less than two people per day will use this site. The only exception to this would be a circumstance in which more individuals would be required to move a large oil rig or other oilfield service equipment into or out of the storage area. In such instances, approximately 12-15 people might be involved. However, moving the rigs or equipment will be a rare occurrence, as companies typically park such equipment for months or even years at a time. On many days, it is anticipated that there would be no individuals using the site. 9. If this is a dairy, livestock confinement operation, kennel, etc., list the number and type of animals. Not Applicable. 10. Describe the type of lot surface and the square footage of each type. (e.g. asphalt, gravel , landscaping, dirt, grass, buildings) The lot is currently unirrigated and has grass and sometimes crops such as winter wheat. Mr. Sharp intends to create a recycled asphalt lot of approximately 10 acres on the proposed site to facilitate the storage, and to lay crushed asphalt on the access road. 11 . How many parking spaces are proposed? How many handicapped (ADA) parking spaces are proposed? There will be no designated parking spaces. Some vehicles may be stored on the asphalt lot, but they will be there for long term storage and will not be in traditional parking spaces. 12. Explain the existing and proposed landscaping for the site. There is no proposed landscaping associated with this proposal. 13 . Describe the type of fence proposed for the site (e.g. 6 foot chain link with earth tone slats) Mr. Sharp intends to build an opaque chain-link fence approximately six feet high around the site. 14. Describe the proposed screening for all parking and outdoor storage areas. If the site is located in a floodplain outdoor storage is restricted. The chain-link fence described above is the only proposed screening for the parking and storage area. Due to the large size of the property and the fact that the storage will be closest to County Road 24, an unimproved dirt road with a minimal amount of traffic, visibility to others would not be an issue. 15. Explain any proposed reclamation procedures when termination of the Use by Special Review activity occurs. Not Applicable. Due to the nature of this proposed use, reclamation is not applicable. 16. Who will provide fire protection to the site? The Hudson Fire Protection District will provide fire protection to the site. In addition, there is a fire suppression building with a 30,000 gallon water tank located on the adjacent parcel to the west of the subject parcel, which is owned by Mr. Sharp. 17. List all proposed on-site and off-site improvements associated with the use (e.g. landscaping, fencing, buildings, drainage, turn lanes, etc.) and a timeline of when you will have each one of the improvements completed. Mr. Sharp anticipates it will take approximately 1 -2 months to construct the needed items for this USR, which include: (1 ) an opaque chain-link fence approximately six feet high around the site; (2) an access road from CR 24 south to approximately the center of the proposed site; (3) a retention pond, if determined to be necessary by an engineer; (4) a recycled asphalt area of approximately 10 acres in the center of the proposed site. Mr. Sharp will begin construction on at the earliest reasonable date after approval of this application by Weld County. Engineering questions: 970-353-6100 x3540 1 . 'Describe how many roundtrips/day are expected for each vehicle type: Passenger Cars/Pickups, Tandem Trucks, Semi-Truck/Trailer/RV (Roundtrip = 1 trip in and 1 trip out of site) During normal operations (i.e. other than the rare days where a rig is moved on or off the site), the normal average roundtrips per day would be I or less, and would generally involve passenger cars or pickups. It is anticipated that on many days, there would be no roundtrips to and from the storage area. Mr. Sharp estimates that the number of vehicles accessing the proposed site will be at its highest when an oil rig is moved in or out. However, in his experience equipment may be placed for a number of years, so such movement of equipment will occur very infrequently (as infrequently as 3-6 times per year), and even less once the storage area reaches capacity. When a rig is moved, there are usually 2-3 pickup trucks, and anywhere from 8- 10 semi- trucks, each making 1 round trip to complete the move. Again, such activity would be very infrequent. 2. Describe the expected travel routes for site traffic. Nearly all, if not all, site traffic will use the planned access road to get from the site to County Road 24 and then travel west on County Road 24 to County Road 41 . The majority of site traffic will then travel south on County Road 41 until it reaches Highway 52. A smaller percentage of traffic will travel south on County Road 41 to County Road 22 and then will take County Road 22 west until it reaches Highway 85. County Road 24, where the access road will end, is an unimproved dirt road that is sufficiently wide for trucks to enter and exit the site. The entrance to the proposed site off of CR 24 is well removed from any intersections or major roads, so trucks entering and exiting the site will not affect traffic. 3. Describe the travel distribution along the routes (e.g. 50% of traffic will come from the north, 20% from the south, 30% from the east, etc.) The majority of site traffic, approximately 65%, will come and go from the south of the property along County Road 41 , with any remaining traffic, approximately 35%, coming from the North along County Road 41 . It is intended that all site traffic will turn from County Road 41 onto County Road 24 eastbound which will take the traffic to the access road for the site. 4. Describe the time of day that you expect the highest traffic volumes from above. The highest traffic volumes would between 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., Monday through Saturday. However, as noted above, the likelihood is that there would be 1 or fewer vehicles accessing the property most days. S. Describe where the access to the site is planned. The access to the site will be off of County Road 24 approximately 1 ,500 feet east of County Road 41 . 6. Drainage Design: Detention pond summarized in a drainage report is required unless the project falls under an exception to stormwater detention requirements per code section 23-12-30 F. 1 . A. Does your site qualify for an exception to stormwater detention? If so, describe in a drainage narrative the following: 1 . Which exception is being applied for and include supporting documentation. The applicant is submitting, with this USR, a request for variance, which, if approved, would be a permissible exception pursuant to section 23-12-30 F. 1 .a. 16. The variance is intended to address the concern that detention upon the subject property — without allowing for gradual release of water — would exacerbate flooding of the subject property as well as neighboring properties. The sought variance would involve placing a retention pond on the property, as opposed to a detention pond. 2. Where the water originates if it flows onto the property from an offsite source The water does not flow from a specific offsite source. Instead, water naturally flows over the property from surrounding properties. 3. Where it flows to as it leaves the property The water does not flow to a specific location as it leaves the property. Instead, water naturally flows through the property and off to neighboring properties. 4. The direction of flow across the property The existing water flows within the property in a southeasterly direction. S. If there have been previous drainage problems with the property Not Applicable. B. Does your site require a stormwater detention pond? If so, the following applies: Please see variance request attached with USR Application. 1 . A drainage report summarizing the detention pond design with construction drawings and maintenance plan shall be completed by a Colorado Licensed Professional Engineer and adhere to the drainage related sections of the Weld County Code. 2. The drainage report must include a certification of compliance stamped and signed by the PE which can be found on the engineering website. 3. A general drainage report guidance checklist is available on the engineering website. More complete checklists are available upon request. Environmental Health questions: 970-304-6415 x2702 I . What is the drinking water source on the property? If utilizing a drinking water well include either the well permit or well permit application that was submitted to the State-Division of Water Resources. If utilizing a public water tap include a letter from the Water District, a tap or meter number, or a copy of the water bill. There is a well that provides drinking water to the 22,480 square foot commercial building on the adjacent parcel to the west of the proposed site, which Mr. Sharp owns. Mr. Sharp proposes using this water source to serve the proposed site. The documentation for the well and permits are attached to this USR application. The well permit number is 75579-F. As an • average of less than two people per day will access the proposed site, Mr. Sharp does not propose an additional water source. However, if the Department of Public Health and Environment deems it necessary, Mr. Sharp is willing to provide bottled water on the proposed site. 2. What type of sewage disposal system is on the property? If utilizing an existing septic system provide the septic permit number. If there is no septic permit due to the age of the existing septic system, apply for a septic permit through the Department of Public Health and Environment prior to submitting this application. If a new septic system will be installed please state "a new septic system is proposed". Only propose portable toilets if the use is consistent with the Department of Public Health and Environment's portable toilet policy. There is a septic tank that provides sewer service to the 22,480 square foot commercial building on the adjacent parcel to the west of the proposed site, which Mr. Sharp owns. The septic permit number for that tank is SP-1100157. Mr. Sharp proposes using this sewage disposal system to serve the proposed site. However, if the Department of Public Health and Environment deems it necessary, Mr. Sharp is willing to install portable toilets on the proposed site. 3. If storage or warehousing is proposed, what type of items will be stored? Mr. Sharp proposes storing oil rigs and other oilfield service equipment, including, but not limited to trucks, trailers, and pipes on the proposed site. No storage structures are proposed. 4. Describe where and how storage and/or stockpile of wastes, chemicals, and/or petroleum will occur on this site. Any waste generated on site, such as common cleanup waste, will be disposed of using commercial waste and recycling companies. There will not be any storage or stockpiling of waste on this site. 5. If there will be fuel storage on site indicate the gallons and the secondary containment. State the number of tanks and gallons per tank. Not Applicable. 6. If there will be washing of vehicles or equipment on site indicate how the wash water will be contained. Not Applicable. 7. If there will be floor drains indicate how the fluids will be contained . Not Applicable. 8. Indicate if there will be any air emissions. (e.g. painting, oil storage, etc.) Not Applicable. The only air emissions will be exhaust emissions from vehicles when a rig is being moved in or out of the property, and occasions where such moving of a rig occurs should be exceedingly infrequent. 9. Provide a design and operations plan if applicable. (e.g. composting, landfills, etc.) Not Applicable. 10. Provide a nuisance management plan if applicable. (e.g. dairies, feedlots, etc.) Not Applicable. 11 . Additional information may be requested depending on type of land use requested . Building questions: Jose Gonzalez 970-353-6100 1 . List the type, size (square footage), and number of existing and proposed structures. Show and label all existing and proposed structures on the USR drawing. Label the use of the building and the square footage. There are no existing structures on the site. No proposed structures will be built on this site. 2. Explain how the existing structures will be used for this USR? Not Applicable. 3. List the proposed use(s) of each structure. Not Applicable.

On the chain link fence, it would have slats so there would be a level of visual barrier 2 . Traffic narrative — we don't anticipate more than one rig on moving days.

SS STORAGE , LLC Exhibit A DRAINAGE REPORT The applicant does not expect that the approval of this USR would change the flow and/or direction of drainage or water upon the property. Based upon conversations with the County, however, the applicant has retained an engineer to examine drainage and stormwater runoff on the property, and the engineer has proposed the requested variance submitted with this USR. This requested variance is intended to address the concern that detention upon the subject property might exacerbate flooding of the subject property as well as neighboring properties, and that a retention pond, allowing gradual release of water, is more appropriate than a retention pond.

Greeley, CO 80631 I Ph: 970-304-6496 I www.weldgov.com/departments/public_works/development_review 8/19/2019 TRAFFIC NARRATIVE The proposed project will obtain access off of CR 41, which runs along the eastern boundary of the parcel, at the intersection with CR 24, which runs along the northern boundary of the parcel. The proposed entrance to the site is off of CR 24 at approximately the center of the northern boundary of the parcel. CR 41 and CR 22, which runs along the southern boundary of the parcel, are currently utilized primarily by semi trucks, farm vehicles, area residents, and other associated traffic. CR 24 is not maintained by Weld County and dead-ends a short distance east of the proposed site. Approximately 35% of traffic in the area is traveling southbound on CR 41 from Greeley and northern Colorado; roughly 45% percent of traffic is traveling northbound on CR 41 from the Denver metro area; and approximately 20% is traveling east and west on CR 22 from Fort Lupton and Hudson. The highest traffic volumes are between 9:00 a.m. to 3 :00 p.m., Monday through Saturday. The proposed use will contribute an average of less than one round trip per day. On many days, there will be no vehicles accessing the property. The number of vehicles accessing the proposed site will be at its highest when an oil rig is moved in or out. However, this will occur very rarely — as infrequently as 3-6 times per year — as the equipment is typically parked and left for months or years at a time. When a rig is moved, there are usually 2-3 pickup trucks, and anywhere from 8- 10 semi-trucks, each making one round trip. CR 41 is an improved, paved two-lane road. CR 24, where the vehicles will access the proposed site, is an unimproved dirt road. It is sufficiently wide for trucks to enter and exit, and the entrance to the proposed site off of CR 24 is well-removed from that intersection such that trucks entering and exiting the site will not affect traffic at the intersection of CR 41 and CR 22. RUST ABATEMENT PLAN A. Road Surface: The applicant plans to put down crushed asphalt access road into the proposed storage area, as well as applying the same surface to the entirety of the oil/gas lay down lot itself. Based on these precautions, it is anticipated that the dust, if any, will be extremely minimal. B. Activities On Site: All trucks and other vehicles that access the site will only travel on paved roads. Vehicle speeds will be restricted to limit dust generation. C. Observations of Dust On Site: The applicant is very familiar with this property in all conditions, and has not seen problems with excessive dust in the area. Even in periods with high-speed winds, there is not a significant dust issue. a QUAIL RIDGE HYDRAULIC ENGINEERS, LLC ; 2004 Broadway Street es, Mitchell, NE 69357 L-C�S rex@grhvdraulics.com May, 2019 Storm Water Narrative USR 15-xxxx, Lot B Corrected Recorded Exemption No. 1307-09-2-RE-5111, Hudson, Weld County, Colorado Location and Description of Property This proposed Use by Special Review (USR) lies in an upland location about 6 miles north of the Town of Hudson, Colorado. The site is located at the intersection of County Road 24 and 41 in the Northwest 1/4 of Section 9, Township 2 N, Range 65 West of the 6th PM, in unincorporated Weld County, Colorado. Use of Site Applicant proposes to construct a lay down field for oil field equipment on a property that is currently being used for dryland agricultural production. Access to the site will be provided by County Road 24 from the north. Applicant proposes to use the site for storage of materials and equipment related to oil production and transmission. The site will be fenced and overlaid with recycled ground asphalt concrete material. Drainage Basins and Subbasins There are no lakes, streams nor rivers on the property. An irrigation ditch flows on the north side of County Road 24 across from the property. An irrigation reservoir and other associated irrigation ditches are located one mile east of the site. The site slopes gently from southwest to northeast. Stormwater runoff from higher ground to the west is generally blocked by County Road 41. Under existing conditions, stormwater runoff from the site proceeds north to County Road 24, then east along the south side of Road 24. Drainage Design Criteria This proposal is a use by special review under Weld County land use requirements. Weld County requires that any USR which has a developed runoff flow of 10 cubic feet per second (cfs) or greater must incorporate a stormwater detention pond so that the runoff does not exceed the 5 year undeveloped rate of flow. The Colorado Urban Hydrograph Procedure (CUHP) developed by the Denver Urban Drainage and Flood Control District was used to compute developed and undeveloped runoff from the site. In order to minimize requirements for detention on the site, a swale was designed to divert off-site runoff from entering the site. Input and output data for the CUHP runs are given in Appendix A to this document. The 100 year rate of flow from the site for developed conditions was computed to be 30 cfs. The 5 year rate of flow for existing conditions was computed to be 3.55 cfs. Based on the hydrographs from CUHP, a storage volume of 1 .71 acre feet was required to reduce the outflow to 3.55 cfs. Proposed Stormwater Facility A stormwater detention pond was proposed for the northeastern corner of the property. The pond will be constructed by excavating soil material to construct a berm around a containment site for storage of water. The detention pond will be drained by a pipe extending 383 feet to the north, beyond which a ditch will be constructed to convey the runoff into the south side ditch of County Road 24. The inlet to the pipe described above was set at 4862.60 feet to allow its construction to impound water to a depth of four feet with an average area of .43 acre. The pond would have side slopes of 3: 1, and a top width of 6 feet An emergency spillway would be designed in the berm over the outlet pipe to handle greater than 100 year developed flows. Retention Pond Justification A review of conditions downstream of the outlet shows no flow path for the runoff. Storm runoff from the site and surrounding area ponds in the northeast corner of the overall property. Considering that the grade of the bottom of the pond would have to be low enough to allow the pond to drain dry, there is no place to route the runoff which would allow it to flow downstream. County Road 24 is graded flat, with no roadside ditch for at least one half mile toward the east and a high point within that distance. Terrain to the west is uphill. The chosen solution to this is to construct a retention pond, where the excess runoff can be stored until it infiltrates into the ground. An examination of the terrain showed that runoff from the existing site ponds in an area which includes the neighboring property to the east. Any addition to the runoff from the Lay down site, could worsen flooding on the neighboring property as well as County Road 24, Construction of the detention pond as proposed would not deter this possible flooding and may well worsen it, since detention only lessens the flow rate, but no the volume. Retention Pond The only reasonable alternative to detention of the stormwater runoff would be to retain it so that it would not leave the property. Weld County land use requirements will only allow a retention pond by variance from the County Code. A retention pond, if allowed must be designed to contain 1.5 times the runoff from a 100 year, 24 hour storm, plus one foot of freeboard. The pond will be configured so that it functions as a retention pond outside the boundary of the laydown field. It will have no outlet and it will be designed to hold one and one-half times the onsite runoff from a 24 hour 100 year storm with a one foot freeboard. The 24 hour 100 year precipitation, per the NOAA Atlas is 4.53 inches, or an intensity of 0.20 inches per hour. The soil at the site is a NRCS Class A soil. This rainfall intensity is less than the final rate of infiltration predicted by the Horton Equation for a Class A soil (1.00 inches per hour). It should be noted that the duration of the rainfall is far greater than the time of concentration of about 40 minutes. It is expected, therefore, that the entire volume of rainfall that infiltrates through the surfacing continues to infiltrate into the ground. The surfacing that the Owner proposes to install (compacted gravel) has an imperviousness of 40% per UDFCD criteria (page 6-8, Volume One). Assuming that all of the pervious fraction infiltrates, and all of the imperviousness fraction of rainfall runs off, the volume of the runoff from the laydown field for the 24 hour period is 65,776, or about 66,000 cu ft. This equates to 1.51 acre feet. With the 1.5 excess requirement, the total volume to be retained is 99,000 cu ft, plus the volume of rain falling directly into the retention pond which is if allowed16,443 cu ft. Thus the retention pond must be sized to hold about 115,443 cu ft of water. This equates to 2.65 acre feet. With a one foot freeboard, a 3.65 depth would be required. A pond has been designed to fit the topography with a width of 218 feet and a length of 192 feet. The amount of infiltration from the proposed pond was computed using an approximation from the Horton equation. The Horton equation is referenced in the UDFCD Manual as a way to compute the rate of infiltration of water into the soil. The equation is an exponential decay which has a beginning rate of infiltration and a rate which is approximated after time t. The site in question is an NRCS soil type A, With Horton beginning infiltration rate of 5.0 in/hr and a final infiltration rate which becomes less and approaches 1.0 in/hr. As a conservative assumption, only the final lesser infiltration rate is used in the calculation. Also, the rate of infiltration used to compute the time of release was 0.60 in per hour, again as a conservative measure. Table 1 below shows the computation for the proposed retention pond, taking into account the change in area of the pond with its depth. The computation shows that the designed pond will need a depth of three feet when filled to capacity of 120,000 cubic feet. The pond will have a bottom elevation of 4859 and will fill to its design capacity at a depth of three feet at elevation 4862. The berm will have a top height of 4863. The pond will have side slopes of 3 : 1.

REC. NO. 3015472 DATE DEVENCEI rShat 2 of 2 Justification for Requested Variance 1) Describe the Weld County Code criteria of which a variance is being requested. Section 23-2-240 of the Weld County Code requires for a use by special review requires that Stormwater retention facilities shall be provided on site which are designed to retain the stormwater runoff from the fully developed site from a one hundred-year storm or as otherwise required by the Department of Public Works The drainage facilities shall be designed to release the retained water at a quantity and rate not to exceed the quantity and rate of a live-year storm falling on the UNDEVELOPED site. A variance is sought from the requirement stated above that the drainage facilities shall be designed to release the retained water. 2) Describe why it is not possible to meet the Weld County Code Storm runoff from the site and surrounding areas flows to the northeast corner of the site and ponds in the northeast corner of the overall property. A review of conditions downstream of the proposed Iaydown site shows no flow path currently exists for runoff from the site nor for the runoff from a detention pond. Considering that the grade of the bottom of the pond would have to be low enough to allow a pond to drain dry, there is no place to route the runoff which would allow it to flow on downstream. County Road 24 is flat, with no roadside ditch on either side for at least one-half mile toward the east. In fact, there is a high point in that distance. The road, in fact, has ponding areas within the travelled lanes. Terrain to the west is uphill. The recommended solution to this is to construct a retention pond, where the excess runoff can be stored until it infiltrates into the ground. An examination of the terrain showed that runoff from the existing site ponds in an area which includes the neighboring property to the east. Any addition to existing runoff from the site could worsen flooding on the neighboring property as well as County Road 24. Construction of a detention pond as might otherwise be proposed would not deter this possible flooding and may well worsen it, since detention only lessens the flow rate, but does not decrease the volume. 3. Describe the proposed alternative with engineering rational which supports the intent of the Weld County Code. Sec. 23-2- 150 of the Weld County Code deals with intent of the Code with regard to special review applications. It states as follows: "A. The intent of the Site Plan Review procedure is to provide present and future residents and users of land in the COUNTY a means whereby orderly and harmonious DEVELOPMENT is ensured in the COUNTY. Site Plan Reviews require additional consideration to ensure that the USES permitted are established and operated in a manner that is compatible with existing and planned land USES in the NEIGHBORHOOD. The regulation of Site Plan Reviews is designed to protect and promote the health, safety, convenience and general welfare of the present and future residents of the COUNTY." The requested variance to the Code will avoid worsening a flooding situation whereby the health, safety, convenience and general welfare of present and future residents is jeopardized. Retention Pond Justification A review of conditions downstream of the outlet shows no flow path for the runoff from a detention pond. Storm runoff from the site and surrounding area ponds in the northeast corner of the overall property. Considering that the grade of the bottom of the pond would have to be low enough to allow the pond to drain dry, there is no place to route the runoff which would allow it to flow downstream. County Road 24 is graded flat, with no roadside ditch for at least one half mile toward the east and a high point within that distance. The road, in fact has ponding areas within the travelled lanes. Terrain to the west is uphill. The chosen solution to this is to construct a retention pond, where the excess runoff can be stored until it infiltrates into the ground. An examination of the terrain showed that runoff from the existing site ponds in an area which includes the neighboring property to the east. Any addition to the runoff from the Lay Down site could worsen flooding on the neighboring property as well as County Road 24. Construction of the detention pond as otherwise proposed would not deter this possible flooding and may well worsen it, since detention only lessens the flow rate, but not the volume. Hello
