DCP Midstream, LP
David Jost, DCP Operating Company, LP, 3026 4th Avenue, Greeley, CO 80631
Hearing Date: November 21, 2017
A Site Specific Development Plan and Special Review Permit, USR17-0048 for two (2)
greater than 12 -inch high pressure natural gas pipelines approximately 0.35 miles long
in the A (Agricultural) Zone District
The pipeline will be within Section 18, T4N, R64W of the 6th P.M., Weld County, CO
Generally located north of County Road 44; west of County Road 51; south of County
Location: Road 46 and east of County Road 49
Size of Parcel: Varies, +1- 2.12 acres Parcel No. 1053-18-3-00-002
Case Summary:
The proposed pipelines would each be approximately 0.35 miles in total length, are co- located within one
easement or right-of-way, and would start at the Crossroads Booster Station (USR17-0023) and would
terminate at the Mewbourn 160 Pipeline (USR12-0006). The pipelines would exit from launchers at the
Crossroads Booster Station and head south approximately 0.1 miles where it would turn east and travel
0.25 miles where they terminate at receivers along the Mewbourn 160 Pipeline.
The pipelines would be constructed within a 100 -foot temporary ROW. Once the pipelines have been
installed, the temporary ROW will be returned to its pre -construction contours and reclaimed. The
permanent maintenance easement (right-of-way) for each pipeline will be 30 -feet; however, this land will
be returned to the surrounding land use during the operational period. As the pipelines are located
approximately 20 feet apart, the combined permanent maintenance easement (right-of-way) would be 50
feet. Permanent, aboveground equipment will include two launchers at the Crossroads Booster Station
and two receivers along the Mewbourn 160 Pipeline. Total land impacts during construction will be
approximately 4.2 acres, while the permanent easement (right-of-way) will cover approximately 2.1
acres.
DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING SERVICES' STAFF RECOMMENDS THAT THIS REQUEST BE
APPROVED FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS:
1. The submitted materials are in compliance with the application requirements of Section 23-2-260 of
the Weld County Code.
2. It is the opinion of the Department of Planning Services' staff that the applicant has shown
compliance with Section 23-2-480 of the Weld County Code as follows:
USR17-0048
DCP Midstream, LP
Page 2 of 9
A. Section 23-2-480.A.1 - All reasonable efforts have been made to avoid irrigated cropland or to
minimize the negative impacts on agricultural uses and lands.
The application indicates that the pipeline will be located on lands owned by the applicant and are
in dryland agriculture. All soils removed for installation of the pipeline will be returned to their
original location and will not be moved offsite. The preferred pipeline route minimizes
environmental impacts such as wetland areas, water bodies and agricultural lands.
B. Section 23-2-480.A.2 - The pipeline will not have an undue adverse effect on existing and future
development of the surrounding area, as set forth in applicable Master Plans.
The pipeline is not located within the 3 -mile referral area of a municipality or County.
C. Section 23-2-480.A.3 - The design of the proposed pipeline mitigates negative impacts on the
surrounding area to the greatest extent feasible.
The application indicates that the pipeline will be located on lands owned by the applicant and are
in dryland agriculture.
D. Section 23-2-480.A.4 - The site shall be maintained in such a manner so as to control soil
erosion, dust and the growth of noxious weeds.
The Conditions of Approval and Development Standards will ensure that there is no fugitive dust
or erosion and will ensure the control of noxious weeds. Best Management Practices (BMPs) will
be required for all construction areas, including erosion control methods, dust suppression, et
cetera.
E. Section 23-2-480.A.5 -- The applicant has agreed to implement any reasonable measures
deemed necessary by the Board of County Commissioners to ensure that the health, safety and
welfare of the inhabitants of the County will be protected, and to mitigate or minimize any
potential adverse impacts from the proposed pipeline.
All pipelines will be compliant with the DOT requirements. Per this standard, pipelines are
required to have a minimum of 30 -inches of cover or greater if required by local or state agencies.
The pipeline trench will be excavated mechanically; pipe segments will then be strung along the
ditch line and then welded together using welders and weld procedures qualified under the
requirements of the Code of Federal Regulations; each weld will be examined utilizing industry
standard non-destructive examination, or x-ray, procedures by qualified technicians; the coating
on the pipeline will be inspected for damage and repaired as necessary and then the line(s) will
be lowered into the trench and backfilled. The pipeline(s) will subsequently be pressure tested
using water (hydrostatically tested) to industry regulations.
F. Section 23-2-480.A.6 - All reasonable alternatives to the proposal have been adequately
assessed, and the proposed action is consistent with the best interests of the people of the
County and represents a balanced use of resources in the affected area.
This route was selected as the preferred project route as it balances environmental sensitivity,
operational efficiency, cost minimization, and adjacent landowner considerations. As such, DCP
has proposed this alignment as the preferred route as it helps meet the operational needs of the
project while minimizing impacts to the surrounding community and environment.
In the early planning stages, DCP considered alternative route options through the property;
however, the DCP generally decided to site the pipelines as close to the southern edge of the
property as possible in order to make inspection access easier and to reduce the potential for
interruption to agricultural activities in the nearby field and other resources.
USR17-0048
DCP Midstream, LP

C. Section 23-2-480.A.7 - The nature and location or expansion of the pipeline will not unreasonably
interfere with any significant wildlife habitat and will not unreasonably affect any endangered
wildlife species, unique natural resource, known historic landmark or archaeological site within
the affected area.
Colorado Parks and Wildlife returned a referral dated September 18, 2017 indicating no conflict
with their interests and History Colorado did not return a referral response.
H. Section 23-2-480.A.8 - No adverse impact, from stormwater runoff, to the public rights -of -way
and/ or surrounding properties as a result of the pipeline.
The applicant will be required to maintain historic flow patterns and runoff amounts, per the
Department of Planning Services, engineering review stated a drainage plan will be not be
required for this project. Section 1.A.5 of the drainage criteria provides an exception for pipelines
and transmission lines. DCP Midstream acknowledges in their application that the historical flow
patterns and runoff amounts will be maintained on the site or in such a manner that it will
reasonably preserve the natural character of the area and prevent property damage of the type
generally attributed to run-off rate and velocity increases, diversions, concentration and/or
unplanned ponding of storm run-off.
The Design Standards (Section 23-2-240, Weld County Code), Operation Standards (Section 23-
2-250, Weld County Code), Conditions of Approval and Development Standards can ensure that
there are adequate provisions for the protection of health, safety, and welfare of the inhabitants of
the neighborhood and County.

20 . RIGHT T4 EXTRACT MINERAL RESOURCES STATEMENT : Weld County has some of the most
abundant mineral resources , including , but not limited to , sand and grauel , oil , natural ga� , and caal .
Under titl � 34 of the Colorado Revised 5tatutes , minerals are vital resources because (a ) the state '�
commercial mineral deposits are essential to the state' s economy; ( b ) the populous caunties of the
state face a critical shortage of such depo� its ; and ( c) such deposits should be extracted according to
a ratianal plan, calculated to avoid waste of such deposit� and cause the lea �t practicabl � disruption
of the ecology and quality of life of the citizens of the populous c4unties af the state .
Mineral resaurce locatians are widespread throughout the County and persan moving into the�e
ar�as must recognize the various impacts associated with this development. Often time� , mineral
resource � ites are fixed to their geographical and geaphy� ical locations . Moreover, these resource�
are protected property right� and mineral owners should be afforded the opportunity to extract the
mrneral re� ource .
21 . WELD CDUNTY' 5 RIGHT TQ FARM : Weld Caunty is one of the most productive a�ricultural countie�
in the United States , typically ranking in the top ten caunties in the country in tatal market value af
agricultural products sald . The rural areas of Weld County may be open and spacious , but they are
intensively used for agriculture . Persons maving inta a rural area must reeognize and aceept there
are drawbacks , including canflicts with long -standing agricultural practices and a lower level of
services than in tawn . Along with the drawbaeks come the incentives which attract urban dwellers to
relocate to rural areas : open views , spaciousness , wildlife , lack af city noise and congestian , and the
rural atmasphere and way of life . Withaut neighboring farms , those features which attract urban
dwellers ta rural 'Weld County would quickly be gane farever .
Agricultural users af the land shauld nat be expected to change their long-established agricultural
practiees ta accommodate the intrusions af urban users into a rural area . Well - run agricultural
actiuities will generate off-site impacts , including noise from tractors and equipment; slow-moving
farm vehieles an rural roads ; dust from animal pens , field work , harvest and gravel roads ; adar fram
animal confinement, silage and manure; smake fram ditch burning ; flies and masquitoes ; hunting and
U S R17-0048
DCP Midstream , LP
Page 8 of 9
trapping activitie� ; shooting sports , legal hazing of nuisance wildlife, and the use of pesticides and
fertilizers in the fields , including the use of aerial spraying . It is common practice for agricultural
produeers to utilize an accumulation af agricultural machinery and supplies to assist in their
agrieultural aperations . A concentration af miscellaneaus agricultural materials often produces a
visual disparity between rural and urban areas of the County . Sectian 35- 3 . 5 - 102 , C . R. 5. , pravides
that an agricultural operation shall not be faund to be s publie or private nuisance if the agricultural
operation alleged ta be a nuisance employs methads or practiees that are commonly ar reasonably
assaciated with agricultural production .
Water has been , and cantinues to be , the lifeline for the agricultural community . It is unrealistic to
assume that ditches and reservoirs may simply be moved "out of the way" af residential develapment .
When moving to the Caunty, praperty awners and residents must realize they cannot take water fram
irrigatian ditches , lakes , ar other structures , unless they have an adjudicated right to the water .
Weld Co�unty cavers a land area af approximately four thausand (4 , D00 ) square miles in size (twice
the size af the State af Delaware ) with more than three thousand seven hundred (3 , 700 ) miles af
state and county roads outside of municipalities . The sheer magnitude af the area to be served
stretches available resources . Law enfarcement is based on respanses to camplaints mare than on
patrols af the County , and the distances which must be traveled may delay all emergency responses ,
including lauu enfarcement, am � ulance , and fire . Fire protection is usually provided by volunteers who
mu �t leave their jobs and families to respond to emergencies . County gravel roads , no matter how
often they are bladed , will not provrde the same kind of surface expected from a paued raad . Snow
removal prioritie � mean that roads from � ubdivisions to arkerials may not be cleared for several days
after a major snowstarm . 5ervice� in rural areas , in many cases , will not be equivalent ta municipal
services . Rural dwellers must, by necessity, be more �elf-sufficient than urban dwellers .
People are expased to different hazard � in the County than in an urban or � uburban setting . Farm
equipment and ail field equipment , ponds and irrigation ditche� , electrical power for pumps and center
pivat aperations , high sp �ed traffic , sandburs „ puncture vines , territorial farm dog� and livestock , and
open burning present r�al threats . Controlling children's activities is important, not only for their
safety , but also for the prot�ction of the farmer's livelihood .
