Subject: Discovery Gas Plant - Fort Lupton
Dear Commissioners / Planning Department
I want to express my deepest concerns with the new Discovery Gas Plant going in on the west
side of Buffalo Ridge Estates. The entire housing development strongly objects to any further
gas plant development going on next to us. This will only hurt our property values, but also ruin
our country life style. Discovery needs to find a different location that is isolated from
population for their gas plant expansion.
There is a lot of isolated property around the area for Discovery, so please protect our property
values and standard of living. I am sure none you would like to have this gas plant next to your
homes and neither do we. Discovery needs to put up a 15-20ft dirt berm all the way around the
phase 1 plant. this will help with noise control and add trees to the berm to help it blend in with
the natural environment in the area.
Respectfully,
Darren Swink

Surrounding Property Owner
Notification
July 07, 2017
The Weld County Department of Planning Services has received the following item for review:
Applicant: DISCOVERY DJ SERVICES LLC
Please Reply By: August 4, 2017
Case Number. ZPMH17-0028
Planner. Wendi Inloes
Project: Zoning permit for a manufactured structure to be used for the temporary use of an office, up to
18 months, used in conjunction with USR16-0031. (A)
On parcel(s) of land described as:
15866-C SE4 & E2SW4 SECTION 11 T1 N R66W of the 6th P.M., Weld County, Colorado.
Location: North of and adjacent to CR 10: West of CR 35
This notice is being sent to you for your comments regarding an application for a zoning permit. Any
comments you consider relevant to this request would be appreciated. Please reply by the above
listed date so that we may give full consideration to your comments- Any response not
received before or on this date will be deemed to be a positive response to the Department of
Planning Services. If you have any further questions regarding the application, please call the
Planner listed above associated with the request.
[I We have reviewed the request and find no conflicts with our interest.
,We have reviewed the request and object for the following reasons:
There is already too much truck traffic, noise and dust. They don't follow the guidelines in
the RESOLUTION that was setup and signed by the county Commissioners on October 26th
2016. The project is winding down so why do they now need to add more temporary
buildings at this point for 18 more months. Temporary buildings tend to be forgotten about
and become permanent in most cases, and that hurts the surrounding property owner's
values.

Sean,
Regarding the gas plant Phase I requesting adding temporary structures and proposed Phase II
We have lived in Buffalo Ridge Estates since 2000. Two amenities we most love about our area are the
wide open vistas and the quiet. While we are not against progress, we know the residents of Buffalo
Ridge Estates should have a say when such a large project is considered. We were not notified of Phase
I, which we believe is due to Weld County statues that require notification only to property owners that
border that project. However, this project has affected the entire residential area of Buffalo Ridge
Estates, NOT just the few homes bordering the project. Disturbing affects of Phase I and proposed Phase
II include:
Increased traffic including dump trucks and semi's using Eagle Street and WCR 10 as access
roads. Even though these streets were posted, they were used as access roads. In addition, employee
vehicles use our streets all hours of the day, especially noticable at shift changes. Our residents are
runners, bicyclers, dog walkers, horseback riders, children, and must now must use extreme caution or
even forego their activities because of increased traffic.
Noise pollution - this plant seems to run 24 hours and the increased noise of big trucks spoils the quiet of
our neighborhood
Dust pollution. Because of the clearing of acres of land to the west of our Estates, every wind brings a
dust storm, causing us to close windows and doors on anotherwise breezy days with no dust.
Visibility. We do not want to see tall stacks with or without flames. We do not want to see acres of this
plant everytime we go out our doors. We do not want to see acres of parking lots full of vehicles.
Health. As residents of Buffalo Ridge Estates we are asking to be provided an extensive health study
regarding proximity to gas plant. Since we are just finding out about Phase II, we have a lot of research
ahead of us and residents will be sharing what we each discover. However, Weld County and our
commissioners should be responsible in overseeing this research. Nobody wants risk of illness or
explosions next door. One document we are looking at now is "Dangerous Neighbors: Pipelines,
Compressor Stations, and Environmental Injustice".
Odor. Once Phase I goes "live" on July 31 we believe this will become a factor, and certainly for Phase II.
Property value, obviously our home values have gone down with Phase I in place. Phase II could be
disastrous for those of us who count their homes as long term financial stability.
Please listen to the residents and consider our futures here in Buffalo Ridge Estates.
