Office of Special Projects 8120 Gage Street Frederick, Colorado 80516 Telephone (970) 353-8310 Fax (970) 353-4047 Friday 9 June 2017 Lauren Light, EHP Weld County - Dept. of Public Health & Environment 1555 North 17`1' Avenue Greeley, Colorado 80631 Subject: Weld County USR 0000 — Varra Companies, Inc. - Parcel 122 (P-122) Resource Development Project. Dear Lauren: Here are our plans for attending to the following Weld County Public Health & Environment considerations for the above referenced USR application: Noise Varra Companies, Inc. does not plan to establish plant processing operations at this location. Most raw materials will be conveyed to an existing plant location via an established conveyor system located in the northwest corner of the project area. The direction of extraction is away and then down from surrounding residential properties. These residences, predominantly to the center and north of the permit boundary, are also well situated an additional 400 feet or greater from the access road located along the east boundary line of the permit, subsequently reducing potential concerns respective of any on -site generated noise from occasional pit run hauling. Odor Odor abatement is not considered a potential concern since Asphalt and Concrete Plant operations are not planned at this location. The applicant will work with Weld County to keep the unlikely potential for any odors emanating as a result of our operations from adversely affecting area residents. Waste (continued - next page-•) No hazardous waste will be stored at this location. Trash will be contained and disposed of in metal containers with lids, commonly 30 gal. in size, and removed from the location by Ram Waste Systems, 5704 Bueno Drive, Ft. Collins, CO 80525. 1 Dust Dust (a.k.a., air borne particulate matter) is in general managed under an approved Fugitive Dust Plan (CDH Permit 14WE1413F. Water trucks are utilized to suppress access generated dust on our haul roads. Haul trucks are moving moist material as part of extraction. Semi and tandem trucks will cover product leaving the site. All traffic generated dust is further minimized by keeping speeds to posted 15 mph or less. Use of structural fill or other suitable on -site generated materials over the native ground will further serve to reduce dust either from traffic or wind. Operations from extraction will increasingly be below ground, and plant generated dust further protected by winds and vectoring by generated product stockpiles. Water & Sanitation Bottled water will be utilized on -site along with port -o -let sanitary facilities in the parcel center within the Mineral Reserve Area. Naturally, Varra Companies, Inc. desires to be seen and felt as a good neighbor to all our neighbors. We trust our clarifications and enhancements detailed under the respective plans above, will satisfy the concerns and regulatory duties of your office. If we you need further clarification or additional information, or if we may assist your office at any time, please do not hesitate to contact us. Thank -you Lauren, for your kind and professional assistance. Respectfully, Varra Companies, Inc. Bradford Janes, Forester cc.
