1.0 INTRODUCTION
Serious incidents, unless properly and effectively managed, can result in loss of life and damage
to public or private property. Serious incidents can also generate complex technical, legal, and
public relations problems. It cannot be overemphasized that the best way to handle emergency
situations is to prevent their occurrence. However, when incidents do occur, prompt and proper
response can mitigate damage and minimize business interruption and financial impact. This
Emergency Response Plan (ERP) is designed to help HighPoint Operating Corporation (HPOC)
field personnel respond quickly and effectively to the problems presented by serious incidents.
Within this ERP you will find guidance for responding to emergency incidents and descriptions
of the duties that must be accomplished when a serious incident occurs. This ERP provides field
personnel with tools and procedures for handling such incidents effectively.
This ERP is for the Bronco Compressor Station, and was prepared:
1. To serve as the basis for an organized action plan in dealing with emergencies and spills of
all magnitudes;
2. To spell out responsibilities and priorities in countering an emergency situation or major
spill;
3. To provide information on the means for handling serious incidents and provide the tools to
properly document incidents and incident response; and
4. To tabulate the contact information for the personnel and agencies that must be notified in
order to promptly and properly respond to an emergency incident.
Prompt action is mandatory. For this reason, the content of this ERP must be understood and
readily available to all HPOC field personnel. All involved employees should be informed to
take quick action to protect life and property and to immediately report the incident.
The ERP will require modification from time to time, as field personnel change, as technologies
advance, and as experience indicates improvements. The ERP is to be reviewed annually by
Environment, Health, and Safety (EH&S) and operations staff to ensure that it is up to date.
This ERP is not intended to replace existing Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasures
(SPCC) plans or other required plans, but rather its purpose is to be a supplement providing
general guidelines for emergency situations.
2.0 FACILITY -SPECIFIC INFORMATION
This ERP has been developed for the HPOC Bronco Compressor Station, located in rural Weld
County, Colorado. The facility is approximately 0.2 miles south of County Road 68 and 0.5
miles east of County Road 79 %, northeast of the town of Wiggins, Colorado. Access to the
facility is via County Road 68.
HighPoint
RESOURCES=
The HPOC Bronco Compressor Station consists of separation equipment, and compressor
buildings used for treatment and compression of gas for sale.
The entire facility is equipped with an Emergency Shut -Down (ESD) system that will
incorporate both manual and automatic compressor and gas supply shut -downs. The ESD
system will incorporate gas detection equipment in the compressor buildings to actuate automatic
ESD of the facility.
All electrical equipment installed will comply with appropriate hazard class locations or accepted
industry practice in order to minimize fire and explosion potential associated with this
equipment. Equipment will have guard posts installed when the potential for traffic impact with
the equipment is likely. Pressure relief valves will be in place on the compressors, the slug
catcher, the fuel gas scrubber, and the filter separators. These will minimize the potential for
hazardous pressure build-up and explosion.
The entire site will be fenced and will be a no smoking area. All appropriate hazard warning
signage will be in place on the site entrance and applicable equipment. 10-, 20-, and 30 -pound
rated fire extinguishers will be located in key locations throughout the site.
3.0 EMERGENCY COMMUNICATIONS PROCEDURES
Prompt reporting of EHS incidents is critical to ensure HPOC Management and EHS staff have
been informed of an incident so they can provide guidance and resources as necessary. Prompt
reporting is also necessary to ensure that all appropriate regulatory agency notifications are made
in a timely fashion.
3.1 HPOC INCIDENT LEVELS
HPOC has created criteria to classify incidents by level of severity so appropriate and uniform
notifications and response actions can be taken. The criteria presented below are to be utilized to
determine if an incident is a Level 1, 2, or 3 incident. The level of the incident will then
determine what notifications are necessary and by what means incidents are to be communicated
within the HPOC organization.
Level 1 - Lowest Level:
1.
An incident without fire, recordable injuries, public involvement, or adverse media
involvement, typically reported as a near miss or a first aid incident.
2.
Any reportable spill that does not reach water or a drainage feature.*
3.
Minor unplanned and uncontrolled gas or vapor release.
4.
Vehicle accident without injury and/or damage less than $5,000.
5.
Property damage less than $5,000.
*Note: Any spill of any level should be reported to EH&S.
HighPoint
RESOURCES
Level 2 - Intermediate Level
1.
Incidents involving recordable or serious injury to employees, contractors, or the public.
2.
Gas or vapor release requiring employee or contractor evacuation.
3.
A fire that can be managed with internal resources immediately controlled and
extinguished.
4.
Any spill to water.
5.
Vehicle accident with injury and/or damage greater than $5,000 but less than $10,000.
6.
Property damage greater than $5,000 but less than $50,000.
7.
Significant Notices of Violation, fines, penalties, administrative orders, etc. received from
any government agency.
Level 3 - Highest Level
1.
Incidents involving death or multiple injured employees, contractors, or the public.
2.
Gas or vapor release requiring evacuation of third parties.
3.
Major spills, toxic gas releases, or other significant environmental damage.
4.
Blowouts.
5.
Fires not immediately controlled and extinguished, typically fires that involve third -party
emergency response.
6.
Vehicle accident with damage greater than $10,000.
7.
Property damage greater than $50,000.
3.2 HPOC INCIDENT MANAGEMENT CHAIN OF COMMAND
When an emergency is identified, immediate notification must be made as soon as possible in
accordance with the guidance presented in this ERP.
The first person to identify the emergency will report it to their supervisor. If a person's
supervisor cannot be immediately reached with the known contact information (i.e., telephone
numbers of office, mobile phone, home, or pager) then the next person in the chain of
management must be notified. The supervisor or the first person ultimately notified by the
employee discovering the incident will initiate the appropriate l-[POC emergency incident
notification tree in accordance with the diagrams below.

3.3 COMMUNICATION TECHNIQUES
The following guidance will be followed when making any notifications regarding an incident.
1. Communication must be through a two-way confirmed means. Use of messages on voice
mail or sending e-mail does not constitute notification. Level 1 incidents not involving
a spill may be communicated via e-mail. In all instances, a message may be left, but the
next person up the chain of command must also be contacted.
2. Supervisors or others dealing with the incident may delegate reporting responsibilities as
appropriate. However, when delegating these responsibilities, always instruct the person to
report back to you.
3. Make sure the person you are communicating with understands you. This can be done by
asking them to repeat the key parts of your discussion.
4. If you are calling someone you do not frequently talk to, make sure you identify yourself
and where you can be reached.
5. If working with radio communication, call out the person you want to talk to followed by
your name (e.g., "Kurt, this is Greg, do you read me?") Wait long enough for a response.
The person may be away from the radio and may need some time to get back.
6. If calling by telephone, let the phone ring at least six times before hanging up.
7. Do not hesitate to call above your supervisor if your supervisor is unreachable.
8. Have relevant information available before starting notification. This does not mean a
complete report of everything but has the following at a minimum.
a. Location or facility and call back phone number.
b. Type of emergency.
c. Time and date first noticed.
d. The magnitude of emergency (e.g., size of fire or spill, the number of people
involved, injuries, if other properties or companies are involved).
e. What you have done prior to making your notification.
f. What your plans are in responding to the emergency.
g. What are the weather conditions?
h. What, if any, outside notifications have been made.
i. What assistance you need.
j. When you will call back with a subsequent report.

3.4 MEDIA COMMUNICATIONS
Communications with media and local government officials are best handled by persons trained
in dealing with the media. All media inquiries should be directed to the Legal Department unless
the specific direction is given by these groups to individual personnel.
Estimates or speculations as to the cause or size of the problem must never be made. Assume
any camera or recorder in the area is ON at all times (it just may be). Encourage the media to
speak with Legal Department personnel in the Denver office for any detailed information.
3.5 NOTIFICATION OF EMPLOYEE'S FAMILY
All notification of family in the event of serious illness or injury will be the responsibility of the
Human Resources Department, with the assistance of the Area Superintendent. It is important
that family notification not be made prematurely and that certain facts are gathered before
notification.
4.0 ON -SCENE INCIDENT COMMAND
Refer to Section 3.2.
5.0 PRESERVATION OF EVIDENCE AND SITE SECURITY
In the aftermath of a serious incident, it becomes necessary to investigate the incident in order to
determine the cause and corrective actions. Perhaps the most important aspect of this
investigation is determining the facts, and as such, the preservation of the evidence is of great
importance.
With the assistance of field personnel involved at the incident scene, the evidence can be
preserved and a more beneficial investigation performed. The following are basic guidelines
which should be followed.
1. Secure the Area
Rope off or otherwise control access into the incident site. Access by non -company
personnel (including contractor personnel even if involved in the incident) is NOT
allowed unless specific management approval has been obtained. Establish a gate guard
and ensure that a sign -in sheet is maintained so anyone who entered the facility can be
identified at a later date. ALWAYS ask agency personnel to present identification and
try to get a business card. The only exception is necessary to access by emergency
medical rescuers and firefighters.
2. Preserve the Evidence
As much as possible, do not disturb objects relating to the incident. If unavoidable,
stake or mark its location and record what was there, preferably by taking a series of
photographs that show the object in question and nearby permanent landmarks so the
HighPoint
=RESOURCES=
scene can be recreated if necessary. Never allow evidence to leave the scene without
approval.
3. Document the Evidence
Take notes, photographs, and or voice notes about EVERYTHING. You cannot create
too much documentation. Remember, you are documenting site conditions for reference
YEARS in the future. Take immediate steps to protect all documentation and
immediately provide any documentation to the leader of the incident investigation team
after the initial emergency response actions have concluded.
4. Identify Witnesses
If persons who witnessed the incident cannot remain on the scene to be interviewed
during the investigation, get their names and pertinent information so they can be
located later.
6.0 EMERGENCY RESPONSE SCENARIOS
6.1 RESPONSE TO AN INJURY OR ILLNESS

10. Determine whether assistance is needed from public safety officials.
11. Operating personnel should attempt (from a safe area) to shut-in the leak and be alert for
chemical and/or liquid hydrocarbon run-off. If chemicals are involved in a fire, think of the
consequences before you use water on the fire. It may be better to contain the fire and let
the chemicals incinerate. Close off the area. If you do not have the necessary equipment,
appropriate heavy equipment contractors should be contacted.
12. If injuries have been sustained, start first aid procedures and call for ambulance service if
needed, organize search and rescue if anyone is still unaccounted for.
13. If gas escape cannot be safely shut-in, stopped, etc., and presents a hazard to residents, field
personnel, or property, the following steps should be taken.
a. Determine if the sour gas being released should be safely ignited to protect residents.
The appropriate agency should be contacted for approval prior to any flaring of sour
gas.
b. Initiate Evacuation Procedure.
6.5 RESPONDING TO INCLEMENT WEATHER
If weather becomes severe to the point it threatens the safety of workers, it is a best practice to
evacuate or "cab up" until safe to return to work.
1. Contact supervision to determine the severity of the storm.
2. Shut down all work activity.
HighPoint
RESOURCES=
3. If possible, shut-in wells and production equipment.
4. Evacuate all unneeded persons from the site.
5. Assess the situation and severity of the situation.
TORNADO - It may not be best to evacuate. Use the best judgment if a tornado is in
sight. Go to the lowest point possible (i.e., ditches, culverts, creek bottoms). Do not
stay in a vehicle! Lay face down and cover your head with your hands. Keep all PPE
on; this can help protect you from flying debris. Wait for the storm to pass.
• THUNDER/LIGHTNING — When you see lightning or hear thunder, "cab up" in a
vehicle for 30 minutes from the last sighting. If lightning or thunder continues for
more than one hour, shut crews down and contact your supervisor.
HIGH WINDS — Do not work at heights. If a crane is being utilized, shut it down
when winds become higher than 25 miles per hour (mph). "Cab up" and wait for the
wind to stop. Keep all PPE on while in high winds. PPE can help protect from flying
debris.
SEVERE RAIN — If driving and severe rain occur, pull to the side of the road and
wait for the rain to pass. Pull as far to the right as possible. Turn on hazard lights. If
on a work sight, "cab up" until the rain passes.
• FLOODING - If you are in an area that is prone to flooding, never attempt to stay on
location when flooding occurs. Find the best route to high ground and remain until
safe. Never drive through standing water.
HAIL — If hail occurs while on site, keep PPE on at all times. PPE can help protect
you from falling ice. Seek shelter in a building or vehicle until the storm passes.
• WINTER WEATHER (Blizzards and severe snow storms) — If severe winter weather
occurs while on site, contact the National Weather Service, listen to the radio or
television, or communicate with your supervisor to monitor the storm. Avoid
unnecessary driving and seek shelter immediately.
6. Contact 911 /Emergency services (as needed) If you're trapped by floods or there is an
injured person.
• Follow the instructions of the operator at all times.
• Provide as much information as possible to the operator.
• Send a person to the nearest county road or street intersection to wait for emergency
services.
7. Administer First Aid/CPR to any affected person as needed.
• Follow First Aid/CPR guidelines.
8. Control access if the site is not safe.
• Only allow approved personnel and emergency services to enter the site.
HighPoint
RESOURCES -
9. You may be required to establish a landing area for a helicopter.
10. Follow the HPOC incident reporting procedure.
6.6 RESPONDING TO A BOMB THREAT OR TERRORIST ACTIVITY
Bomb threats have become fairly common place. You may be confronted with this situation at
any time. Bomb threats are frequently for the purpose of annoyance rather than destruction.
However, each situation must be approached as though the bomb threat is a reality. Approach a
bomb situation calmly, cautiously, deliberately, and without delay. Be alert; it may be a highly
dangerous situation or merely a prank; therefore, avoid the hysterical or excited approach. If
evacuation appears to be desirable, limit the alarm and evacuation to the area probably affected.
Don't use cellular phones (turn them off) or communication radios if a call comes in. This could
detonate certain types of devices. The bomb type may be incendiary or an explosive device used
for material destruction, disruption of normal activities, or to disturb employee morale. A bomb
threat may be received by anyone in the company. It is important that a call of this nature be
handled in accordance with an established plan. Be sure to obtain the necessary information and
notify your supervisor.
1. SUPERVISOR'S RESPONSIBILITY
• In order to detect, prevent, or minimize the effect of sabotage, each supervisor should
critically analyze their situation with respect to vulnerability to sabotage and make
appropriate improvements to protect against sabotage.
2. ACTIONS
a. Immediately safeguard personnel — including any other affected parties (other offices,
or residents).
b. If it is a telephone threat, remain calm and get as much information as possible.
o Time of call.
• As close as possible to the exact wording.
o Sex and age of caller (if identifiable) (young, old, etc.).
o Foreign or identifiable accents.
o Distinguishable background noise.
o Bomb location (specific as possible).
o When the bomb is supposed to detonate.
o Kind and size of the bomb.
o How the bomb got into the facility.
c. Assemble all non -essential personnel at the staging area and ensure that Sight
Security accounts for everyone. Evacuate to a safer location if necessary.
HighPoint

d. Plan to combat the emergency and minimize damage.
e. Notify Building Management.
f. Notify the sheriff's department (911).
6.6.1 Unknown Location of Bomb
1. As field personnel sweep their assigned areas, have them look for anything out of the
ordinary.
2. Any suspicious item may be a bomb. DO NOT TOUCH THE DEVICE. REPORT THE
LOCATION TO THE INCIDENT COMMANDER
3. If the location is determined, evacuate the immediate area. (Size of area evacuated
determined by the hazards)
4. Notify upper Management and sheriff's department.
5. Assist sheriff's department as necessary
6. Establish a hot zone
6.6.2 Exploded Bomb
1. Preserve any evidence if possible!
2. Assist any injured personnel in the safest possible manner.
3. Protect the rescuers so there are not more victims.

6.7 RESPONDING TO UNAUTHORIZED VISITORS / PROTESTORS
You may be confronted with unauthorized visitors and/or protestors at any time. Approach the
situation calmly, cautiously, deliberately, and without delay. Be alert; it could develop into a
highly dangerous situation; therefore, avoid the hysterical or excited approach. If evacuation
appears to be desirable, limit the alarm and evacuation to the area probably affected. A civil
protest will usually take the form of an organized public demonstration of disapproval or display
disagreement with an idea or course of action. It should be noted that in many cases, protests
such as marches, meetings, picketing, and rallies will be peaceful and non -obstructive. A protest
should not be disrupted unless one or more of the following conditions exists as a result of the
demonstration:
• Disruption of the normal operations of the HPOC facility.
Obstructing access to offices, buildings, or other HPOC facilities.
The threat of physical harm to persons or damage to HPOC facilities.
Willful demonstrations within the interior of any HPOC building or structure, except
as specifically authorized and subject to reasonable conditions imposed to protect the
rights and safety of other persons and to prevent damage to property.
Unauthorized entry into or occupation of any HPOC room, building, or area of the
campus, including such entry or occupation at any unauthorized time, or any
unauthorized or improper use of any HPOC property, equipment, or facilities.
1. IMMEDIATE ACTION AND DECISION MAKER(S)
• If any of the above conditions exist, the local police or sheriffs department should be
notified. Depending on the nature of the protest, the appropriate procedures listed
below should be followed.
a. Peaceful, Non -Obstructive Protest
o Generally, peaceful protests should not be interrupted. Protestors should not be
obstructed or provoked and efforts should be made to conduct HPOC business as
normally as possible. If protestors are asked to leave but refuse to leave,
arrangements may be made by HPOC management to treat the violation of regular
operating hours as a disruptive protest.
b. Disruptive Protests
o In the event that a violent protest in which injury to persons or property occurs or
appears imminent, the following will occur.
2. ACTIONS
a. Immediately safeguard personnel — including any other affected parties (other offices,
or residents)
b. Assemble all non -essential personnel at a staging area and ensure that Sight Security
accounts for everyone. Evacuate to a safer location if necessary.

=RESOURCES=_
c. Plan to combat the emergency and minimize damage.
d. Notify facility management.
e. Notify the sheriff's department (911).
Efforts should be made to secure positive identification of protestors in violation to facilitate
later testimony, including photographs if deemed advisable. Additionally, efforts should be
made to videotape any police action for future reference.
1. SUPERVISOR'S RESPONSIBILITY
In order to detect, prevent, or minimize the effect of sabotage, each supervisor should
critically analyze their situation with respect to vulnerability to sabotage and make
appropriate improvements to protect against sabotage.
