A copy of this public notice and the public comment packet are enclosed. Thank you for assisting the Division by posting a copy of this public comment packet in your office. Public copies of these documents are required by Colorado Air Quality Control Commission regulations. The packet must be available for public inspection for a period of thirty (30) days from the beginning of the public notice period. Please send any comment regarding this public notice to the address below.

Facility: Cecil USX A01-63-1 HN Exploration and production SWSW Sec1 T6N R64W Weld County The proposed project or activity is as follows: Existing EF±P facility. For this project, Noble Energy plans to remove the vapor recovery unit (VRU) and route vapors from the LP separator to flares. A new vapor recovery tower (VRT) has also been installed to provide an additional stage of gas/liquid separation. Emissions from the VRT are routed to flares. Noble is also requesting to cancel the GP01 for the condensate tanks at Point 005 and instead permit them with an individual permit. Two engines permitted under GP02s have been removed. The Division has determined that this permitting action is subject to public comment per Colorado Regulation No. 3, Part B, Section III.C due to the following reason(s): • permitted emissions exceed public notice threshold values in Regulation No. 3, Part B, Section III.C.1.a (25 tpy in a non -attainment area and/or 50 tpy in an attainment area) • the source is requesting a federally enforceable limit on the potential to emit in order to avoid other requirements The Division has made a preliminary determination of approval of the application. A copy of the application, the Division's analysis, and a draft of Construction Permit 17WE0130 have been filed with the Weld County Clerk's office. A copy of the draft permit and the Division's analysis are available on the Division's website at https://www.colorado.gov/pacific/cdphe/air-permit-public-notices The Division hereby solicits submission of public comment from any interested person concerning the ability of the proposed project or activity to comply with the applicable standards and regulations of the Commission. The Division will receive and consider written public comments for thirty calendar days after the date of this Notice. Any such comment must be submitted in writing to the following addressee: Betsy Gillard Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment 4300 Cherry Creek Drive South, APCD-SS-B1 Denver, Colorado 80246-1530 cdphe.commentsapcd@state.co.us 1LEI ADO Colorado Air Permitting Project Project Details Review Engineer: Package #: Received Date: Review Start Date: Section 01- Facility Information Betsy Gillard 358097 2/15/2017 4/6/2017 Company Name: Noble Energy, Inc.

If yes, the permit will contain an "Initial Compliance" testing requirement to develop a site specific emissions factor based on guidelines in PS Memo 05-01. Does the company use a site specific emissions factor to estimate emissions? If yes and if there are flash emissions, are the emissions factors based on a pressurized liquid sample drawn at the facility being permitted? This sample should be considered representative which generally means site -specific and collected within one year of the application received date. However, if the facility has not been modified (e.g., no new wells brought on-line), then it may be appropriate to use an older site -specific sample. Vt lino, the permit will contain an "Initial Compliance" testing requirement to develop a site specific emissions factor based on guidelines in PS Memo 05-01. Does the company request a control device efficiency greater than 95% for a flare or combustion device? V yes, the permit will contain and initial compliance test condition to demonstrate the destruction efficiency of the combustion device based on inlet and outlet concentration sampling Section 08 - Technical Analysis Notes Tank flash emissions are based on a HYSYS Simulation and a site -specific pressurized liquid sample collected 6/O2016. WOO emissions are based on Noble's AP. -42 calculations. These emission factors are higherthan the output from the HYSYS simulation, as Noble opted to use the lb/hr value for flash emissions instead of the Ib/bl value, which results in more conservative emission estimates.

AQCC Regulation 2 Section I.A applies to all emission sources. "No person, wherever located, shall cause or allow the emission of odorous air contaminants from any single source such as to result in detectable odors which are measured in excess of the following limits: For areas used predominantly for residential or commercial purposes it is a violation if odors are detected after the odorous air has been diluted with seven (7) or more volumes of odor free air." AQCC Regulation 3 Part B: A permit is required for this source because uncontrolled VOC emissions from this facility exceed two tons per year in a nonattainment area for ozone. This source is subject to Section III.D.2 (Minor Source RACT) because it is located in a nonattainment area. RACT for this source has been determined to be the use of a flare to control emissions.

An application with missing information may be determined incomplete and may be returned or result in longer application processing times. You may be charged an additional APEN fee if the APEN is filled out incorrectly or is missing information and requires re -submittal. This APEN is to be used for Natural Gas Venting only. Natural Gas Venting includes emissions from gas/liquid separators, well head casing, pneumatic pumps, blowdown events, among other events. If your emission unit does not fall into this category, there may be a more specific APEN for your source. In addition, the General APEN (Form APCD-200) is available if the specialty APEN options will not satisfy your reporting needs. A list of all available APEN forms can be found on the Air Pollution Control Division (APCD) website at: www.colorado.Rov/cdphe/aocd. This emission notice is valid for five (5) years. Submission of a revised APEN is required 30 days prior to expiration of the five-year term, or when a reportable change is made (significant emissions increase, increase production, new equipment, change in fuel type, etc). See Regulation No. 3, Part A, II.C. for revised APEN requirements.
