27. RIGHT TO EXTRACT MINERAL RESOURCES STATEMENT: Weld County has some of the most
abundant mineral resources, including, but not limited to, sand and gravel, oil, natural gas, and coal.
Under title 34 of the Colorado Revised Statutes, minerals are vital resources because (a) the state's
commercial mineral deposits are essential to the state's economy; (b) the populous counties of the
state face a critical shortage of such deposits; and (c) such deposits should be extracted according to
a rational plan, calculated to avoid waste of such deposits and cause the least practicable disruption
of the ecology and quality of life of the citizens of the populous counties of the state.
Mineral resource locations are widespread throughout the County and person moving into these
areas must recognize the various impacts associated with this development. Often times, mineral
resource sites are fixed to their geographical and geophysical locations. Moreover, these resources
are protected property rights and mineral owners should be afforded the opportunity to extract the
mineral resource.
28. WELD COUNTY'S RIGHT TO FARM: Weld County is one of the most productive agricultural counties
in the United States, typically ranking in the top ten counties in the country in total market value of
agricultural products sold. The rural areas of Weld County may be open and spacious, but they are
intensively used for agriculture. Persons moving into a rural area must recognize and accept there
are drawbacks, including conflicts with long-standing agricultural practices and a lower level of
services than in town. Along with the drawbacks come the incentives which attract urban dwellers to
relocate to rural areas: open views, spaciousness, wildlife, lack of city noise and congestion, and the
rural atmosphere and way of life. Without neighboring farms, those features which attract urban
dwellers to rural Weld County would quickly be gone forever.
Agricultural users of the land should not be expected to change their long-established agricultural
practices to accommodate the intrusions of urban users into a rural area. Well-run agricultural
activities will generate off-site impacts, including noise from tractors and equipment; slow-moving
farm vehicles on rural roads; dust from animal pens, field work, harvest and gravel roads; odor from
animal confinement, silage and manure; smoke from ditch burning; flies and mosquitoes; hunting and
trapping activities; 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
producers to utilize an accumulation of agricultural machinery and supplies to assist in their
agricultural operations. A concentration of miscellaneous agricultural materials often produces a
visual disparity between rural and urban areas of the County. Section 35-3.5-102, C.R.S., provides
that an agricultural operation shall not be found to be a public or private nuisance if the agricultural
operation alleged to be a nuisance employs methods or practices that are commonly or reasonably
associated with agricultural production.
Water has been, and continues 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" of residential development.
When moving to the County, property owners and residents must realize they cannot take water from
irrigation ditches, lakes, or other structures, unless they have an adjudicated right to the water.
Weld County covers a land area of approximately four thousand (4,000) square miles in size (twice
the size of the State of Delaware) with more than three thousand seven hundred (3,700) miles of
state and county roads outside of municipalities. The sheer magnitude of the area to be served
stretches available resources. Law enforcement is based on responses to complaints more than on
patrols of the County, and the distances which must be traveled may delay all emergency responses,
including law enforcement, ambulance, and fire. Fire protection is usually provided by volunteers who
must leave their jobs and families to respond to emergencies. County gravel roads, no matter how
often they are bladed, will not provide the same kind of surface expected from a paved road. Snow
removal priorities mean that roads from subdivisions to arterials may not be cleared for several days
after a major snowstorm. Services in rural areas, in many cases, will not be equivalent to municipal
services. Rural dwellers must, by necessity, be more self-sufficient than urban dwellers.
USR15-0077—Certarus Ltd. Page 8
People are exposed to different hazards in the County than in an urban or suburban setting. Farm
equipment and oil field equipment, ponds and irrigation ditches, electrical power for pumps and center
pivot operations, high speed traffic, sandburs, puncture vines, territorial farm dogs and livestock, and
open burning present real threats. Controlling children's activities is important, not only for their
safety, but also for the protection of the farmer's livelihood.

Dear Applicants:
I have scheduled a meeting with the Weld County Planning Commission on February 16, 2016, at 12:30
p.m. A subsequent hearing with the Board of County Commissioners will be held on March 9, 2016 at
10:00 a.m. Both hearings will be held in the Hearing Room, Weld County Administration Building, 1150
O Street, Greeley, Colorado. It is recommended that you and/or a representative be in attendance to
answer any questions the Planning Commission members or Board of County Commissioners may
have.
Colorado Revised Statute, C.R.S.24-65.5-103 (adopted as part of H.B.01-1088) requires notification of
all mineral estate owners 30 days prior to any public hearing. The applicant needs to provide the Weld
County Planning Department with written certification indicating the above requirement has been met.
A representative from the Department of Planning Services will be out to the property a minimum of ten
days prior to the hearing to post a sign adjacent to and visible from a publicly maintained road
right-of-way which identifies the hearing time, date, and location. In the event the property is not
adjacent to a publicly maintained road right-of-way, one sign will be posted in the most prominent place
on the property and a second sign posted at the point at which the driveway (access drive) intersects a
publicly maintained road right-of-way.
The Department of Planning Services' staff will make a recommendation concerning this application to
the Weld County Planning Commission and will be included in the staff report one week prior to the
scheduled Planning Commission hearing. You may view the staff report at

Subject: RE: septic storage tank
Chris and Lauren,
My contact at Certarus is agreeable to the condition and thanks you for working with us on this issue. May I make a
suggested change to the wording of the condition? Please see below.The employee on site will likely be there for
more than 2 hours daily. I have changed the wording on the employee timing. I believe this still falls within the
parameters of bottled water and portable toilets, per the guidelines provided at the pre-app.
Development standard as proposed by the county:
*Adequate drinking, hand washing and toilet facilities shall be provided for employees and patrons of the facility,at
all times. As employees or contractors are on site for less than 2 consecutive hours a day portable toilets and

Chris,
Thanks to you and Lauren and Jose for looking into this for Certarus. I will discuss this proposal with them but I
believe it will be agreeable.
I will leave a message for you with the credit card information for the fee.

Ethan,
Lauren and Jose discussed the tank and we have come up with a plan.Treat the tank like a portable toilet-subject to
the following development standard/condition:
*Adequate drinking, hand washing and toilet facilities shall be provided for employees and patrons of the facility,at
all times. As employees or contractors are on site for less than 2 consecutive hours a day portable toilets and
bottled water are acceptable. Records of maintenance and proper disposal for portable toilets shall be retained on
a quarterly basis and available for review by the Weld County Department of Public Health and Environment.
Portable toilets shall be serviced by a cleaner licensed in Weld County and shall contain hand sanitizers.

Proper building permits would be required for the other components(office trailer and electrical...).
I will proceed with setting up the case.
Are you planning on paying by credit card?
I will be in hearings this afternoon -in my experience it is easier to e-mail me (or leave a voice message) re:the
credit card information (card#, name, security code,expiration date,zip code)than to try and call into our office
and pay.
Regards,
Chris Gathman
