BOX 758 GREELEY, COLORADO 80632 January 9, 2019 To: Board of County Commissioners From: Toby Taylor Subject: LNG Site - COGCC Reclamation Weld County has a LNG Fuel site located at 1755 Holly Avenue, Greeley. At this site, SCR Energy has closed its oil site and removed all equipment. As part of the process, they need to reclaim the surface back to original through the COGCC requirement. Since we are using the site as an LNG fueling location and have imported materials (crushed asphalt) which changed the area's use from the time it was originally constructed, the reclamation would be problematic for both parties. There are methods to initiate a variance, so they can provide to COGCC for consideration and to allow closeout of the site. The first step for requesting a variance would be to sign the attached document which requests a variance as described through simple leveling of the site. If approved by COGCC, the official variance documents for signature would come later. Buildings & Grounds is recommending approval of pursuing this variance request. If you have any questions, please contact me at extension 2023.
