This application is in accordance with Division 6, Section 23-2-440 of the County Code as discussed during the original pre -application meeting held on December 15, 2015 and subsequent updated pre - application meeting held on May 26, 2016. This USR application is organized in an order to address the requirements of: i) the USR required submittal items outlined under Section 23-2-510 of the County Code, and ii) the additional information as outlined in the pre - application meetings and summary letters as requested by County staff. 1.1 OVERALL PROJECT OVERVIEW Discovery is proposing to construct a new natural gas, crude oil and produced liquids gathering system and associated facilities outside of Brighton, Colorado to facilitate the centralized collection of crude oil and produced liquids while facilitating the delivery of pipeline quality natural gas and natural gas liquids to regional markets. This would include the construction of a new Central Delivery Point ("CDP") facility located approximately 3 -miles south of Brighton, Colorado in the SE of Section 24, Township 1S, Range 67W in Adams County, Colorado. From the CDP, wet natural gas will be transported via a new 29.4 -mile natural gas gathering trunkline to a new natural gas compression and processing facility located approximately 4.3 -miles northwest of Lochbuie, Colorado in the SW of Section 11, Township 1N, Range 66W; roughly 1.25 miles east of Weld County Road 31 and north of Weld County Road 10, where the gas will be processed to recover natural gas liquids ("NGL")'s for delivery to a nearby third party via a new 0.6 -mile NGL sales pipeline. Conversely, pipeline quality natural gas off of the new compression and processing facility will be delivered to a new custody meter station for sales to a third party transmission pipeline via a new 1.4 -mile residue gas sales pipeline. Similarly, a new 12 -mile crude oil pipeline will be constructed concurrently with the proposed natural gas pipeline from the CDP site to the intersection of E. 120th Ave. and Powhaton Rd., where the crude oil pipeline will be capped and inerted in place for future crude oil gathering. Sections 1.1.1 through 1.1.6 below further describe the key infrastructure located within Weld County: 1.1.1 NATURAL GAS GATHERING TRUNKLINE The natural gas gathering trunkline will be constructed of 12.75" O.D. x 0.312" W.T., X-52, API 5L, PSL2, or comparable line pipe coated with 12-14 mils of fusion bond epoxy for external corrosion protection. All state highway, railroad, city and county road, and other crossings will be crossed by bore or horizontal directional drill ("HDD"), thereby avoiding surface impacts in these areas, utilizing 12.75" O.D. x 0.375" W.T., X-52, API 51, PSL2 or comparable crossing pipe coated with 12-14 mils of fusion bond epoxy plus an additional 24-30 mils of abrasive resistant overlay coating. Although the natural gas gathering trunkline does not fall under the jurisdiction of the Code of Federal Regulations ("CFR"), the trunkline will be designed and constructed to meet the requirements of CFR Part 192 "Transportation of Natural and Other Gas by Pipeline". In general, under the CFR, Discovery is required to design and construct the trunkline for a Class 1 area classification utilizing a 0.72 design safety factor at a depth of 36 inches below ground level. As an additional recognized safety precaution, Discovery will design the pipeline for the more stringent Class 2 area classification utilizing a 0.60 design safety factor and all state highway, railroad, city and county road, and other crossing locations to a Class 3 area classification utilizing a 0.50 design safety factor. In addition, Discovery will bury the trunkline a minimum of 48 inches below grade. At all county and / or public roads crossings, the trunkline will be buried a minimum of 60 inches below the bottom of the bar ditches (USDOT and Weld County Public Works Department requires a minimum of 36 inches). Discovery will comply with all local irrigation ditch company requirements as well as the Nationwide Plan 12 permit for all waterway crossings, which allow waterways to be open cut or bored depending upon the condition of the waterway. The natural gas trunkline will be designed to facilitate routine pigging operations to remove liquids that drop out in the pipeline as well as in -line inspection of the line as required in accordance with the CFR.

An access road for the facility will come off the intersection of WCR 35 and Eagle St. and will be 30 ft. wide with a 60 -foot turning radius. At ultimate build out, the facility will receive 40 Million Standard Cubic Feet Per Day ("MMscfd") of wet natural gas from regional gathering via the new 12 -inch natural gas trunkline. Produced water and natural gas condensate collecting in the 12 -inch pipeline and front end of the gas plant will be delivered into atmospheric tanks, where the produced water and condensate will be separated and trucked off - site for sale or subsequent disposal in accordance with federal, state and local regulations. Following inlet separation, the natural gas will be compressed and processed through two (2) Mechanical Refrigeration Unit ("MRU") plants for the purpose of recovering available natural gas liquids. The operation and control of the Discovery pipelines and associated facilities will be performed out of the proposed compression and processing facility utilizing trained and qualified operators and pipeline technicians, providing day-to-day operations and maintenance of the gas plant and associated infrastructure in accordance with Discovery's written operating procedures and federal, state, and local requirements. The gas plant will operate 24 hours / day, 7 days / week, 52 weeks / year. A separate Use by Special Review application (U SR PRE16-0114) has been submitted to Weld County for the natural gas compression and processing facility. 1.1.3 NATURAL GAS LIQUIDS ("NGL") SALES PIPELINE The NGL sales pipeline will be constructed of 4.5" O.D. x 0.237" W.T., X-42, API 5L, PSL2, or comparable line pipe coated with 12-14 mils of fusion bond epoxy for external corrosion protection. The pipeline will be located entirely on the same property as the natural gas compression and processing facility (parcel no. 147111000009) and will terminate at the existing Enterprise natural gas pipeline located approximately 3,150 ft. due east of the plant, approximately 320 ft. south of the intersection of WCR 35 and Eagle Street. Pursuant to discussions with the County during the pre -application meeting on May 26, 2016, under pending County Code changes the minimum pipeline size requiring a USR application is 12 -Inches; and therefore, a USR permit for the 4 -inch NGL sales pipeline is understood not to be required.

Two primary alternatives, Alternative #1 and Alternative #2 are shown as "Green" and "Orange" alignments Prepared By: e's ZION ENGINEERING, LLC Page 11 of 27 Rev B, August 2016 BOARDWALK PIPELINE PROJECT 12 -INCH NATURAL GAS PIPELINE APPLICATION FOR USE BY SPECIAL REVIEW PERMIT DISCOVERY DJ SERVICES, LLC respectively in Figure 2.2.2. While both alternatives offer a shorter, more direct, route between the CDP Facility, located in Adams County, and the natural gas compression and processing facility located in Weld County; these alternatives are in close proximity to the new Prairie View shopping development area in Adams County, have a greater impact on nearby landowners and the general public in both Adams and Weld County, and have overall greater environmental impacts. In order to avoid direct impacts to the city of Brighton and more populated portions of nearby unincorporated Adams and Weld County, Barr Lake State Park, and the Town of Lochbuie, the preferred pipeline route travels east in the most direct route possible taking into consideration local landowner preferences, environmental and cultural impacts, construction access and mitigating costs, while limiting the degree of disturbance during construction. Similar to the preferred route, construction activities for both Alternative #1 and Alternative #2 will have minimal, temporary and short term, effects on the residents, businesses and natural environment of Weld County. Table 2.2.2 below summarizes the respective route lengths and land affected by each alternative and the preferred route. Table 2.2.2 Project Alternatives Route Lengths & Land Affected, Weld County Acres of Land Affected No. Road Crossings Routes (Based disturbance) on 80' wide area of Total Pipeline (miles) Length " 48.5 acres 5.0 5 Alternative 2 68.8 acres 7.1 9 Preferred 110.5 acres 11.4 14 2.2.2.1 ALTERNATIVE ROUTE #1 Alternative #1 is north and west of the preferred route and is approximately 12.6 miles in total length, with approximately 5.0 miles in Weld County and would have the same originating point, approximately 2,110 ft. west of the intersection of E. 136th Ave. and Potomac Street, as the preferred route and transition into Weld County approximately 515 feet east of the intersection of E. 168th Ave. / County Road 2 and WCR 33. This Alternative would incorporate an area of disturbance of approximately 5.0 miles long and 80 feet wide, or approximately 48.5 acres, with a permanent easement of 5.0 miles long and 30 feet wide, or approximately 18.2 acres, and would traverse higher population density areas inside the City of Brighton. While shorter in distance than the preferred route, this Alternative would require winter construction in urban / semi -urban areas, incorporate a greater impact to local businesses and residential traffic, and require the same, if not longer, construction duration due to the complexities of working in heavily populated areas. Route Maps for this Alternative are provided under Attachment A.1 "Alternate Route #1 - Route Maps". 2.2.2.2 ALTERNATIVE ROUTE #2 Alternative #2 is north of the preferred route and is approximately 19.4 miles in total length, with approximately 7.1 miles in Weld County and would have the same originating point, approximately 2,110 ft. west of the intersection of E. 136th Ave. and Potomac Street, as the preferred route and transition into Weld County approximately 5,000 ft. east of the intersection of Harvest Rd. and E. 168th Ave. / County Road 2. This Alternative would bypass the most densely populated portion of the City of Brighton to the east and would skirt portions of the Town of Lochbuie, incorporating an area of disturbance of approximately 7.1 miles long and 80 feet wide, or approximately 68.8 acres, with a permanent easement of 7.1 miles long and 30 feet wide, or approximately 25.8 acres. While shorter in distance than the preferred route and less alignment within the more densely populated portions of the City of Prepared By: • ZION ENGINEERING, LLC Page 12 of 27 Rev B, August 2016 BOARDWALK PIPELINE PROJECT 12 -INCH NATURAL GAS PIPELINE APPLICATION FOR USE BY SPECIAL REVIEW PERMIT DISCOVERY DJ SERVICES, LLC Brighton, this Alternative would also require winter construction in semi -urban areas, incorporate a greater impact to local business and, while to a lesser extent, residential traffic, and require the same construction duration as the preferred alternative. Route Maps for this Alternative are provided under Attachment A.2 "Alternative Route #2 - Route Maps". 2.2.2.3 AIR QUALITY ALTERNATIVES The short-term emission sources impacting air quality would be the same for both alternatives and the preferred route and would include construction equipment, typically diesel driven, and traffic on the roadways and right-of-way. Both Alternative #1 and Alternative #2 are in the same airshed as the preferred route. While both Alternatives are shorter and incorporate less disturbed area than the preferred route, both Alternatives will require the same construction duration, if not longer, due to the construction activities in heavier populated and urban / semi -urban areas, resulting in equal if not greater impacts to overall air quality. Construction for either Alternative or the preferred route is anticipated to occur in late 2016 I early 2017 winter months based upon the anticipated receipt of the required permits. While it is not likely that dust suppression will be required during construction this time of year, Discovery would plan to utilize water suppression to reduce the amount of dust generated during construction, as necessary. 2.2.2.4 PREFERRED ROUTE The preferred route for the natural gas gathering trunkline crosses the city of Brighton and unincorporated Adams County. As outlined in Figure 3.2.2 above, the trunkline would enter into Weld County approximately 5,000 ft. east of the intersection of Harvest Rd. and E. 168th Ave. / County Road 2 where it follows parcel boundaries traveling approximately 0.4 miles north before turning approximately 0.8 miles east, where the route turns north traveling in a general northwesterly direction through agricultural fields crossing the BASF railroad and Colorado Interstate 76 approximately 1,500 ft. northeast of mile marker 28 along the Interstate and approximately 3,600 ft. southwest of the exit to WCR 8. From the west side of Colorado Interstate 76, the pipeline route travels approximately 1.5 miles west following parcel boundaries through agricultural fields before turning south approximately 0.4 miles to WCR 6 at which time the route follows along the south side of WCR 6 to WCR 33 and turns north approximately 2.2 miles before crossing WCR 10 and terminating at the proposed compression and processing facility. The preferred route would incorporate an area of disturbance of approximately 11.4 miles long and 80 feet wide, or approximately 110.5 acres, with a permanent easement of 11.4 miles long and 30 feet wide, or approximately 41.5 acres. While this route is longer in distance than the Alternatives considered, the route bypasses the City of Brighton, Town of Lochbuie, and the more populated areas of unincorporated Weld County with a lesser impact to local businesses and residential areas. Route Maps for the preferred route are provided under Attachment A.3 "Preferred Route - Route Maps". A list of the parcels along the preferred route within Weld County on which the 12 -inch natural gas gathering trunkline will be located is provided under Attachment B "Weld County Line List" 2.2.2.5 PREFERRED ROUTE CONSIDERATIONS & REASONING The preferred route was selected to mitigate the impacts to local businesses and residential neighborhoods; conform with the comprehensive plans for the city of Brighton, Adams County, the town of Lochbuie, and Weld County; minimize impacts to the environment; and to the greatest degree possible, the preferences of local city and county landowners. The preferred route is located on lands within Weld County that are zoned as agricultural, residential, commercial and state assessed. Prepared By: • ZION ENGINEERING, LLC Page 13 of 27 Rev B, August 2016 BOARDWALK PIPELINE PROJECT 12 -INCH NATURAL GAS PIPELINE APPLICATION FOR USE BY SPECIAL REVIEW PERMIT DISCOVERY DJ SERVICES, LLC In each respective zoned area, Discovery worked with the applicable property owners to accommodate their considerations and preferences for the route. In addition, in areas zoned as agricultural, Discovery worked with each respective landowner to develop the preferred alignment to mitigate impacts to actively cultivated fields and productive areas. In addition to zoning and landowner considerations, numerous other factors were included in the decision process for the selection of the preferred route. Discovery has reviewed and considered the Weld County Comprehensive Plan in selection of the preferred route The preferred route does cross various canals associated with regional drainage and irrigation, such as the Farmers Reservoir and Irrigation Company ("FRICO"), Denver -Hudson Canal and the Denver -Hudson Canal systems. Discovery will plan to cross these canals via bore or horizontal direction drill, in accordance with the respective canal company requirements. Permit applications for these crossings, and other crossings along the preferred route, including permits with CDOT for the Interstate 76 and BNSF for the railroad crossings, have been applied for and are pending at the time of this application submittal. 2.2.3 MITIGATING MEASURES & TECHNIQUES Procedures to be employed in mitigating any adverse impacts of the proposed routes or sites. All pipelines will be buried to provide 48 -inches of cover. 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. All available topsoil will be conserved through a process known as "double -ditching", which excavates and removes and conserves topsoil where practical. Conserved topsoil will be windrowed separately from the underlying subsoil and stored along the construction right-of-way until the trench is backfilled, unless construction occurs during the winter with frozen soils. Under frozen soil conditions, topsoil salvage may be conserved using the following Best Management Practices ("BMP")'s: 1) topsoil would be ripped to a depth of 6 inches prior to stripping to allow for effective separation from the subsoil; and 2) topsoil would be sheared off from the subsoil layer to approximately 6 inches using appropriate equipment to accomplish topsoil salvage without mixing. Prior to construction, a Stormwater Management Plan ("SWMP") will be prepared to address stormwater and erosion control during construction activities. Stormwater Best Management Practices ("BMP")'s will be installed for the construction phase in accordance with the requirements of the SWMP. Erosion control BMP's will include, but not be limited to, silt fencing, straw wattles, hay bales, or combinations of these items, depending on the particular area requiring erosion control during construction. Construction staking will occur to designate the pipeline centerlines and outside construction right-of- way boundaries. The limits of disturbance will be clearly marked / staked prior to construction including the construction right-of-way, temporary use areas / work space, and access roads. Utility lines will be located and marked to prevent accidental damage during pipeline construction. Sensitive areas to be protected from disturbance or that require monitoring will be indicated on engineering documents and construction drawings and staked and marked accordingly in the field prior to construction. The location of access road entry points will be properly marked. Flagging, signs, and other markings identifying the limits of disturbance would be maintained through all phases of construction. A survey crew would be available during construction to replace any stakes that have been damaged or inadvertently removed. Wildlife and High Interest Species: Wildlife and high interest species surveys will be performed prior to construction and the applicable agencies consulted. This shall include: Prepared By: • ZION ENGINEERING, LLC Page 14 of 27 Rev B, August 2016 BOARDWALK PIPELINE PROJECT 12 -INCH NATURAL GAS PIPELINE APPLICATION FOR USE BY SPECIAL REVIEW PERMIT DISCOVERY DJ SERVICES, LLC •:• •:• • • • • A Raptor nest survey will be completed if pipeline construction extends or is scheduled for the raptor nesting season (January 15 to July 31). If active raptor nests are found near the ROW (within 0.3 miles) the CDPW will be consulted to determine if any nest protection measures are needed. A nesting Burrowing Owl Survey will be completed if any black -tailed prairie dog towns are crossed during the period of owl activity (March 15 to October 31). If nesting burrowing owls are located consultations would occur with the CDPW to determine if any nest protection measures are needed. A Ute ladies' tresses orchid and Colorado butterfly plant survey would be completed in all wetlands that are proposed to be crossed by trenching. This survey would be completed during the plants blooming period (late July through August). If either species is located consultation would occur with the USFWS. The Colorado Parks and Wildlife District Wildlife Manager for the area will be consulted prior to construction. If there any issues of wildlife mortality (entrapment in the trench, or other mortality) the District Wildlife Manager will be notified. Archeology and Paleontology: On call archeologist and paleontologist would be available to consult if any potential archeological (stone tools, fire rings, foundations, bones) or paleontological (fossils) are found during construction/excavation of the trench and ROW. Project construction would be temporarily stopped until review by the archeologist/paleontologist. If needed the State Historic Preservation Office ("SHPO") would be consulted. Impacts to historic canal/ditch crossings would be avoided by completing these crossings by horizontal directional drill ("HDD"). Mobilization: Construction equipment will be transported to the construction right-of-way via tractor trailer and unloaded within designated staging area(s). Transportation equipment will be removed from the site or parked within a staging area once off-loading is completed. Clearing and Grading: Vegetation will be cleared and the construction right-of-way would be graded, to the degree necessary, to provide for safe and efficient operation of construction equipment and vehicles and to provide space for the storage of subsoil and topsoil. Construction activity and ground disturbance will be limited to approved, staked areas. Where required, trees will be cut with a chain saw and/or mechanical shears and brush would generally be cut with a hydro -axe or similar equipment. Trees and brush will be cut as close to the ground as possible. Vegetative material will typically be shredded and scattered back across the surface to increase roughness, facilitate seeding establishment, and protect the construction right-of-way. Stumps that are not shredded or chipped and that are incorporated into the topsoil will be removed and disposed of at an approved disposal facility. Vegetation may also be brush -hogged to preserve habitat. Topsoil will be stockpiled separately from subsoil and will not be used to pad the trench or construct trench breakers. In areas where the construction right-of-way crosses ephemeral drainages, the drainages will not be blocked with topsoil or subsoil piles. Topsoil and subsoil would be placed on the banks of the drainages. Gaps will be left periodically in the topsoil and subsoil piles to avoid ponding and excess diversion of natural runoff during storm events. Trenching: Trenching will be completed using track hoes or a mechanical trenching machine. The pipeline trench will be to one side of the construction right-of-way to allow for spoil to be placed opposite of the wider working side. It is not anticipated that blasting will be required during pipeline construction. Access will be provided for landowners and grazing rights holders to move vehicles, equipment, and livestock across the trench where necessary and consistent with prior agreement with landowners. Livestock operators will be contacted and adequate crossing facilities would be provided as needed to ensure livestock are not prevented from reaching water sources because of the open trench. The contractor will keep wildlife and livestock trails open and passable by adding soft plugs (areas where the trench is excavated and replaced with minimal compaction) during construction. Soft plugs Prepared By: • ZION ENGINEERING, LLC Page 15 of 27 Rev B, August 2016 BOARDWALK PIPELINE PROJECT 12 -INCH NATURAL GAS PIPELINE APPLICATION FOR USE BY SPECIAL REVIEW PERMIT DISCOVERY DJ SERVICES, LLC with ramps on either side will be left at all well-defined livestock and wildlife trails and at no more than 0.5 -mile intervals along the open trench to allow passage across the trench and to provide a means of escape for livestock and wildlife that may fall into the trench. Trench breakers constructed of sand bags or polyurethane foam will be installed at specific spacing intervals to impede shallow groundwater from flowing down the trench. Lowering -in and Padding: Before the pipe section is lowered into the trench, an inspection will be conducted to verify that the pipe is properly fitted and installed in the trench, minimum cover is provided, and the trench bottom is free of rocks and other debris that could damage the external pipe coating. The pipe sections will be simultaneously lifted in position over the trench and lowered in place. Sifted soil fines from the excavated subsoil will provide rock -free pipeline padding and bedding. Sandbags may be used to pad the bottom of the trench instead of, or in combination with, padding with soil fines. In rocky areas, padding material or a rock shield will be used to protect the pipe and coating. Topsoil will not be used to pad the pipe. Backfillinq Pipeline: Shading and backfill will begin after a section of pipe has been successfully placed in the trench, inspected, and approved for backfill. Backfill will be conducted using a bulldozer or other suitable equipment. Subsoil excavated from the trench will generally be used to backfill the trench, except in rocky areas where imported select fill material may be needed. Backfill will be graded and compacted, where necessary, for ground stability, by tamping or walking with a wheeled or tracked vehicle. Compaction will be conducted to the extent that there would be no voids in the trench. Any excavated materials or materials unfit for backfill will either be utilized elsewhere or properly disposed of in accordance with applicable laws, regulations and landowner agreements. Cleanup and Restoration: Cleanup and restoration will occur after the pipeline is installed and backfill is completed, or in the spring following construction if weather conditions would inhibit the proper restoration activities, so as to minimize the length of time that the open trench and un-stabilized right- of-way is present. Cleanup of the surface along the construction right-of-way will include removal of construction debris and final grading to the finished contours. Permanent erosion control measures will be installed as required and seeding would occur in accordance with landowner requirements. Invasive and noxious weeds will be controlled after construction until the right-of-way is restored. Road Crossings: All county road crossings will be completed by conventional bore or directional drill methodology with sufficient depth to maintain a minimum of 60 -inches of cover at the lowest bar ditch. Waterbody Crossings: All streams and named ditch / canal crossings will be completed via HDD to avoid disturbance of the stream and ditch bed and banks. Each HDD will begin, end and be of sufficient depth to ensure the pipeline is not subject to the hazard of stream scour during anticipated flood events. If the HDD crossing avoids impact to all associated wetlands, a U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USAGE) 404 permit will not be necessary for this crossing. In areas with trenched wetland crossings, the construction right-of-way will be reduced from 80 feet in width to 50 feet in width, where only the ditch line will be topsoiled and the drive space will be matted with pipeline mats to mitigate disturbance. Blading would occur only over the trench line and the construction traffic / access area would be matted to avoid vegetation disturbance. If standard open cut construction methods are used in wetland areas, Discovery will obtain the necessary ACOE 404 permits. 2.2.4 PROJECT DESIGN, PERMITTING, CONSTRUCTION & COMMISSIONING SCHEDULE An outline of the planned construction, including startup and commissioning schedule, to include the number of stages and timing of each. The acquisition of land and right-of-way, engineering and design, procurement of equipment and materials, and the selection of the applicable contractor(s) for the project will occur concurrently with the acquisition of the respective local, state, and federal permits required. This shall include, but not be limited to: Prepared By: • ZION ENGINEERING, LLC Page 16 of 27 Rev B, August 2016 BOARDWALK PIPELINE PROJECT 12 -INCH NATURAL GAS PIPELINE APPLICATION FOR USE BY SPECIAL REVIEW PERMIT DISCOVERY DJ SERVICES, LLC •:• • • •:• • • •:• • • • • Finalizing landowner agreements and the acquisition of 30 foot permanent plus 50 foot temporary construction easements and required temporary work space from individual landowners. This is currently underway in both Adams and Weld Counties; Perform the applicable geotechnical investigations for engineering and design of the respective highway, railroad, and canal crossings. This work is currently underway.

These activities are currently underway; Solicitation, bid and award of the applicable construction contract(s) to third part construction and non-destructive examination contractors; Pre -construction survey of the respective pipeline alignments; Construction of the respective pipelines, including the associated remote valve site, in Weld County. Discovery plans to begin construction in Weld County once all permits are received and the required land and right-of-way is acquired. Following completion of construction, Discovery will commission the respective pipelines and associated facilities and place the Project in-service. Overall, the non -construction activities are anticipated to take approximately 4-6 months, followed by approximately 3-4 months of construction and 1-2 weeks of commissioning. 2.2.5 NEIGHBORHOOD MEETING Information of any public meeting conducted, to include the location, date, time, attendance and m e th o d of advertising. Pursuant to discussions during the pre -application meetings on December 15, 2015 and May 26, 2016, Discovery conducted a neighborhood meeting to inform property owners located within 500 feet of the preferred pipeline permanent right-of-way ("ROW") in about the Project. A copy of the surrounding property owner notification list incorporating the names, addresses, and the corresponding parcel information of all property owners within 500 feet of the proposed pipeline right-of-way has been provided under Attachment C "Surrounding Property Owner Notifications List". The list was created from the Assessor records of Weld County and is current as of June, 10, 2016. The neighborhood meeting was held on Tuesday, June 7, 2016 at the Eagle View Adult Center, located in Brighton, Colorado. Notification of the neighborhood meeting was mailed to all identified property owners within 500 feet of the Project on May 20, 2016 with a corrected flyer provided on May 23, 2016. A copy of the notification brochure, along with the required summary of the neighborhood meeting is provided under Attachment D "Neighborhood Meeting. Notification & Summary". 2.2.6 DESCRIPTION OF HAZARDS A description of the hazards, if any, of fire, explosion and other dangers to the health, safety and welfare of employees and the general PUBLIC. The transportation of natural gas and other hazardous materials via pipeline is generally safer than other potential modes of transport. There is some small risk of an accident in which the integrity of the pipeline may be compromised resulting in a release of natural gas or natural gas liquids. Wet natural gas is contains condensed forms of heavier natural gas liquids and produced water and is considered Prepared By: • ZION ENGINEERING, LLC Page 17 of 27 Rev B, August 2016 BOARDWALK PIPELINE PROJECT 12 -INCH NATURAL GAS PIPELINE APPLICATION FOR USE BY SPECIAL REVIEW PERMIT DISCOVERY DJ SERVICES, LLC both flammable and combustible. Dry natural gas is a clean burning fuel source, also considered both flammable and combustible. In general, signs of a pipeline leak, include dead or discolored vegetation that is otherwise green along the pipeline right-of-way, along with pools of liquid or clouds of vapor or mist not usually present. Discovery will clearly mark the pipeline centerline with markers placed at line of site intervals and at all road, railroad and canal crossings. The markers will clearly identify the pipeline, and will provide a telephone number and address where a company representative can be reached in an emergency or prior to any excavation in the area. Discovery will also participate in the Colorado "One Call" system, which serves as a clearinghouse for excavation activities that are planned close to pipelines and other underground utilities. Discovery employs highly trained operators and contractors and maintains close working relationship with all emergency response personnel. 2.2.7 DESCRIPTION OF EMERGENCY PROCEDURES A description of emergency procedures to be followed in case of a reported failure or accident involving the proposed PIPELINE. Such outline shall include actions, if any, required of PUBLIC officials, including fire and police officials, and the names and telephone numbers of appropriate company officials to notify if an accident or failure should occur. Each respective pipeline centerline will be clearly identified with markers placed at line of sight intervals and at all road, railroad and canal crossings. These markers will clearly identify Discovery as the owner / operator, provide a telephone number and address where a company representative can be reached in an emergency. In the event of an emergency, a call to the number on these markers will go to Discovery's operations and control center located at the gas compression and processing facility. This facility will be staffed 24 hours / day, 7 days / week, 365 days / year by trained operators, qualified in both the day-to-day operation of the respective pipelines and associated facilities, but in emergency response procedures. These operators will also have the ability to monitor the operation of the pipeline system through a Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition ("SCADA") system. Through the SCADA system, operators will be able to see key parameters associated with the operation of the respective pipelines, including pressure, temperature, and flow rate. In the event that these parameters, or other critically identified criteria fall outside of pre -determined normal operating allowances, the SCADA system will raise warnings of potential operational upsets or pending emergency conditions, providing the operator with time to make corrections, if possible, to the system operation in order to clear the warning. In the event that the specified parameters, or critically identified criteria reach pre -determined set points within the system operation, the SCADA► system will alarm. Upon notification of an emergency, either through the public emergency call number, SCADA system, operator inspection and training, or other originating source, Discovery will have the ability to isolate the respective pipelines by closing remotely operated valves at either end of the pipeline or, on the natural gas gathering trunkline, at the three (3) remote valves located along the line to isolate any potential fuel source and mitigate propagation of the emergency situation. In addition, Discovery operations personnel will have the ability to locally evacuate the natural gas pipeline via blowdowns located at each end of the line and at each respective remote valve site. Depending upon the nature of the emergency, local emergency responders would be notified, and Discovery would implement their internal safety response procedures, including dispatching trained personnel to the site of the emergency. The specified emergency contact number for the natural gas compression and processing facility has not yet been determined, but will be provided to the County and appropriate local emergency responders prior to commissioning of the pipeline system. In the mean -time, emergency notifications or inquiries during construction of the project can be directed to Discovery's Project Manager, or on - site Construction Manager as provided below: Prepared By: • ZION ENGINEERING, LLC Page 18 of 27 Rev B, August 2016 BOARDWALK PIPELINE PROJECT 12 -INCH NATURAL GAS PIPELINE APPLICATION FOR USE BY SPECIAL REVIEW PERMIT DISCOVERY DJ SERVICES, LLC 2.2.7.1 PROJECT MANAGER Cory Jordan Discovery DJ Services, LLC 7859 Walnut Hill Lane, Suite 335 Dallas, TX 75230 (214) 414-1980 2.2.7.2 CONSTRUCTION MANAGER Jeff Brewster Quality Check Energy Services, LLC Candlewood suites 2204 South medical Center Drive Brighton, CO 80601 (318) 348-7693 2.2.8 MITIGATING MEASURES TO IMPACTS ON IRRIGATED AGRICULTURAL LANDS A description of the method or procedures to be employed to avoid or minimize the impacts on irrigated agricultural land. Discovery has worked with each respective landowner to develop the preferred alignment to mitigate impacts to irrigated and / or actively cultivated fields and productive areas. The impacts to these lands will in addition be further mitigated by: ❖ Minimizing the construction right-of-way and associated surface disturbance to the degree possible; ❖ Routing the pipeline so as to avoid affecting the operation of irrigation equipment; ❖ Segregating topsoil from excavated spoils to facilitate subsequent restoration following construction; ❖ Following construction of the pipeline, the ROW will be seeded or left fallow in accordance with the agreed individual landowner reclamation procedures. 2.2.9 CONFORMANCE TO WELD COUNTY CODE, CHAPTER 22 OF THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN A discussion of how the proposal conforms with the guidelines of Chapter 22 of this Code and any other applicable code provision or ordinance in effect. Section 22-2-10(D) of the Weld County Code states that "extraction of natural resources is an important part of the economy of the County." These proposed pipelines will contribute to the expansion of the County's industrial economic base by providing increased capacity for future marketing of natural gas production in Weld County. Additionally, Section 22-5-100 (A) states that a County goal is to "promote the reasonable and orderly exploration and development of oil and gas mineral resources." Per Chapter 22 of the Code, oil and gas facilities are allowed as a use by right in the A (Agricultural) zone district, in which all properties along the proposed pipeline routes are zoned. In addition, Weld County Code Section 23-2-200 et seq. permits construction of oil and gas support and service facilities in agricultural zoned districts. Section 22-5-90 of the Weld County Code Comprehensive Plan states: "The most efficient and environmentally friendly way to transport crude oil is by pipeline, rather than by truck. Transportation of the product by pipeline has less impact on County roads. Less truck traffic also benefits air quality in the area". Weld County Code Section 22- 5-100 further states: "Oil and gas activities should be planned to accommodate current and future subdivision activities to the extent such development can reasonably be anticipated". The proposed pipelines meets the objectives outline in the Weld County Code Comprehensive Plan without rezoning or changing the use of the land. The pipelines will be buried beneath the ground's surface and therefore the effect on any active agriculture will be temporary and isolated to the Prepared By: • ZION ENGINEERING, LLC Page 19 of 27 Rev B, August 2016 BOARDWALK PIPELINE PROJECT 12 -INCH NATURAL GAS PIPELINE APPLICATION FOR USE BY SPECIAL REVIEW PERMIT DISCOVERY DJ SERVICES, LLC construction phase of the project. Following construction, the surface along the pipeline right-of-way will be restored to its prior condition, and agricultural activities may resume. 2.2.10 DECOMMISSIONING PLAN A Decommissioning Plan. During operation of the pipeline, should it become necessary to decommission a portion of the line for maintenance or repair activities, pressure on the pipeline would be reduced to a safe operating pressure, or completely blowndown utilizing blowdown valves at the respective remote valve sites or either end of the pipeline. Liquids on the NGL sales pipeline would be displaced utilizing a pipeline pig propelled with dry air, nitrogen, water or other approved inert material. All decommissioning activities would be performed using written procedures designed for the specific requirements and situation. As part of the decommissioning plan, all local emergency responders would be notified in advance and affected landowners notified, as necessary. There is no intention of ceasing operations of the respective pipelines once they are operational. However, in the event that any portion of the pipeline system is permanently decommissioned, that portion will be evacuated, cleaned, isolated, and abandoned in place or removed per all State and local regulations and per the respective landowner agreements. 2.2.11 DESCRIPTION OF HAUL ROUTES A description of any haul routes during construction, identifying the roads and bridges involved and the weight of the loads. Staging for construction in Weld County will be performed from the proposed compression and processing facility (USR PRE16-0114). It is anticipated that the construction contractor will mobilize their equipment to the staging area utilizing U.S. Highway 85 or Colorado Interstate 76 followed by County Road 12 I/2 l Highway 52 and then south on WCR 35 to the temporary staging area. Construction equipment will be transported utilizing semi -tractor and flatbed trailers, or comparable equipment, with gross vehicle weights estimated at 40,000 - 80,000 lbs. Pipe for the construction of the respective pipelines will be strung directly to the right-of-way from the applicable pipe supplier. The main haul routes will incorporate Highway 85, Colorado Interstate 76, WCR 6, WCR 8, WCR 10 and WCR 33 along the west side of Colorado Interstate 76. Similarly, haul routes along the east side of Colorado Interstate 76 will include WCR 6, WCR 8, and WCR 2 / E. 168th Ave. From the respective state and county roads, stringing trucks will access the pipeline right-of-way utilizing temporary access drives at the respective pipeline crossing locations outlined under Table 1.2.1a above, and off WCR 6. The estimated maximum gross vehicle weight for a loaded stringing truck with 12 -Inch pipe will be between 77,500 - 79,000 lbs. In addition, construction personnel utilizing 1 -ton pick-up trucks and comparable sized vehicles will access the right-of-way utilizing similar ingress / egress routes. The expected haul routes include both Colorado Department of Transportation ("CDOT") highways and Weld County roads. Upon review of the Weld County Restricted Bridge Locations Map, dated August 2012, it was determined that the project area does not incorporate any restricted bridges. Similarly, the current state of CDOT roads and bridges for the proposed haul routes were reviewed utilizing the Colorado Department of Transportation's Online Transportation Information System, Highway Data Explorer. The findings of this review are outlined on the following pages.

The following federal and state permits will be required for the Project: Federal Permits: Army Corps of Engineers (ACOE) • •:• The proposed pipelines will cross several wetland areas, ditches and streams that are under the jurisdiction of the ACOE. Generally, pipeline construction does not result in the permanent fill of wetlands or waters of the U.S. Pipeline construction results in a temporary disturbance without loss or long term impacts. The Project should fall within the Nationwide Permit (Nationwide Permit #12) guidelines with the ACOE. Nationwide permits are regulated under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act. Required mitigation activities include removing all excess materials at wetland and stream crossings; stockpiling and restoring topsoil; and restoration of the wetland or stream channel to pre - construction conditions and contours. Based upon review of National Wetland Inventory maps and aerial photography for the project the Project will cross more than 500 feet of wetlands. Thus, Preconstruction Notification ("PCN") with the ACOE will be required for the project. Discovery is in the Prepared By: • ZION ENGINEERING, LLC Page 24 of 27 Rev B, August 2016 BOARDWALK PIPELINE PROJECT 12 -INCH NATURAL GAS PIPELINE APPLICATION FOR USE BY SPECIAL REVIEW PERMIT DISCOVERY DJ SERVICES, LLC process of preparing and acquiring the applicable PCN and Nationwide #12 Authorizations from the ACOE prior to construction. State Permits: Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment ("CDPHE") • • • • • • Stormwater General Permit: CDPHE Water Quality Control Division. Discovery is in the process of acquiring the Stormwater General Permit, which will be obtained prior to performing any construction activities. A Stormwater Management Plan ("SWMP") will be prepared as required by CDPHE. A Colorado Discharge Permit System (CDPS) permit: This permit is required from the CDPHE (Water Quality Control Division) for discharge of hydrostatic test water associated with pipeline integrity testing during construction. Required information for the permit includes the name and location of the Project; location of the test water discharge; dates of discharge; volumes of discharge; the source of test water; test water quality; and the BMP's for the test water discharge location. Testing of discharge water is also required as part of the permit. This permit will be obtained prior to construction once hydrostatic testing details have been determined. Construction Air Permit: This permit is required from the CDPHE (Air Quality Control Division). In Weld County this permit is required for the construction of the proposed compression and processing facility. The preparation of the application for this permit is in process and will be obtained prior to construction. A summary of the applicable permits and their current status is outlined under Attachment G "Federal, State and Local Permits". A copy of all permits applicable to the construction of the respective pipelines in Weld County will be provided to the County prior to construction. 3.3 TYPICAL RIGHT-OF-WAY DITCH DETAILS Typical ditch details along the pipeline right-of-way are provided under Attachment H "Typical Pipeline Ditch Details". 3.4 WELD COUNTY ACCESS PERMIT APPLICATION FORM Pursuant to discussions with Weld County Public Works staff, it is understood that access permits will be provided at each or the respective County road crossings via a Right -Of -Way permit outlined under Table 1.2.1a above. In addition, Discovery will require one (1) additional access to the right-of-way off of WCR 6, approximately 725 ft. west of the intersection of WCR 6 and WCR 33 to facilitate access to the right-of-way for the construction contractor, stringing trucks, and Discovery's construction management team during construction. A completed Weld County Access Permit Application Form for a right-of-way access permit off of WCR 6 is provided under Attachment J "Access Permit Application". 3.5 WASTE HANDLING PLAN During construction, all construction debris and solid waste will be stored in dedicated waste receptacles at staging areas and strategically located areas at the respective facilities, and will be disposed of as necessary in accordance with state and local regulations. Temporary sanitary facilities will be provided for construction workers at the compression and processing facility site (USR PRE1 6-0114) and staging areas along the right- of-way. Any leaks from equipment or vehicles will be cleaned up in accordance with written Spill Prevention & Control Countermeasure ("SPCC") plans and disposed of in accordance with applicable federal, state and local regulations. No wastes will be stored or stockpiled along the pipeline right-of-way during operation of the pipeline. 3.6 DUST ABATEMENT PLAN While construction is anticipated to occur during winter months, Discovery would plan to utilize water suppression to reduce the amount of fugitive dust generated during construction, as necessary. A Storm Water Management Plan ("SWMP") will be prepared as required by the Colorado Department of Public Health and Prepared By: • ZION ENGINEERING, LLC Page 25 of 27 Rev B, August 2016 BOARDWALK PIPELINE PROJECT 12 -INCH NATURAL GAS PIPELINE APPLICATION FOR USE BY SPECIAL REVIEW PERMIT DISCOVERY DJ SERVICES, LLC Environment and Stormwater Best Management Practices ("BMP")'s will be installed for the construction phase in accordance with the SWMP for sediment and erosion control along the right-of-way. Following construction, the respective rights -of -way will be stabilized and restored to their original conditions in accordance with written landowner agreements. 37 WATER SOURCES & HYDROSTATIC TESTING During construction, water will be utilized for dust mitigation and fire prevention purposes as well as for hydrostatic testing of the respective pipelines in accordance with the applicable sections of the Code of Federal Regulations. Water for dust mitigation and hydrostatic testing will be obtained from permitted sources in accordance with the applicable state and local requirements and will be supplied using water trucks. All hydrostatic test water will be discharged in accordance with the applicable Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment's ("CDPH E') Water Quality Control Division discharge permit. Overall, approximately 544,000 gallons of water is anticipated to be required during construction based upon an estimated winter / spring construction timeline as follows: Dust Mitigation & Fire Protection Hydrostatic Testing 144,000 gallons 400,000 gallons Water during construction will be obtained under permit or written approval from private landowners, as applicable. Table 2.6 below outlines potential water sources and their respective amounts: Table 2.6 Boardwalk Pipeline Project Construction Water Sources Source Fill Location Total Amount Allowable Public Private / Governing Agency County Source of FRICO TBD No Con Private CDHPE Adams I Weld Prairie View Subdivision Prairie View Subdivision 30,000gallons / day Private CDHPE Adams City of Ft. Lupton TBD No Con Private CDHPE Weld Following construction, water will not be required for the day-to-day operation of the respective pipelines. 3.8 FIRE & EMERGENCY RESPONSE The Project does not anticipate adversely impacting any local services by Weld County. Those workers associated with the construction of the respective pipelines are temporary, and will not overly burden the existing capacities of Weld County, or local districts' ability to provide services to its residents. Prior to construction, Discovery will coordinate with local fire protection and emergency services providers. Subsequently, prior to operation of the Project, Discovery will work with the local emergency responders concerning emergency response plans for the respective pipelines. Following start-up and operation of the Project, Discovery will work with the local emergency responders for periodic training drills, as required. It is not anticipated that the construction and operation of the Project will create additional demand for local fire and emergency response services. 3.9 SPILL PREVENTION & CONTROL COUNTERMEASURES Prior to commissioning of the respective pipeline, Discovery will develop and implement a Spill Prevention and Control Countermeasures ("SPCC") plan, pursuant to federal, state and local regulations. A copy of the Discovery SPCC plan will be provided to the County, prior to commissioning and operation of the facilities and respective pipelines.

Signature: Amer or thorized Agent Date Signature: Owner or Authorized Agent Date SITE SPECIFIC DEVELOPMENT PLAN AND USE BY SPECIAL REVIEW (USR) QUESTIONNAIRE The following questions are to be answered and submitted as part of the USR application. If a question does not pertain to your use, please respond with "not applicable", with an explanation as to why the question is not applicable. 1. Explain, in detail, the proposed use of the property. Response: The Project will incorporate three (3) pipelines that will require easements within Weld County: 1) A 12 -inch natural gas gathering trunkline. The trunkline will originate at a new Central Delivery Point ("CCU P") facility located in the SE of Section 24, Township 1S, Range 67W, approximately 3 - miles south of Brighton in Adams County, Colorado, where wet gas will be transported via the new 29.4 mile trunkline north to a new natural gas compression and processing facility located approximately 4.3 mile northwest of Lochbuie, Colorado in the SW of Section 11, Township 1N, Range 66W. The trunkline will enter Weld County via directional drill under E. 168th Ave. / County Road 2 in Section 33, Township 1N, Range 65W, about 2 miles southeast of Lochbuie, Colorado and travel predominantly northwest approximately 11.4 miles across Weld County crossing agricultural fields and rural residential areas along with the BNSF railroad, Colorado Interstate 76, and various canal infrastructure and county roads to the proposed compression and processing facility (USR PRE16-0113 and 0114). This facility, identified as the Ft. Lupton Gas Plant, will include various compression and gas processing equipment that will be used to extract Natural Gas Liquid ("NGL")'s from the wet inlet gas stream, producing dry natural gas or residue gas. The 12 -inch natural gas gathering trunkline will be constructed within the following Township, Range and Sections: 33-65-01, 28-65-01, 21-65-01, 20-65-01, 19-65-01, 30-65-01, 25-66-01, 26- 66-01, 27-66-01, 22-66-01, 23-66-01, 14-66-01, 11-66-01, 15-66-01 and will incorporate the acquisition of a 30 ft. permanent easement plus 50 ft. temporary construction easement providing for a total 80 ft. construction right-of-way. 2) An 8 -inch residue gas sales pipeline. The residue gas sales pipeline will originate at the Ft. Lupton Gas Plant and travel southwest approximately 1.4 miles, following parcel boundaries and existing pipeline corridors, crossing WCR 10 to a new Residue Gas Custody Meter Station located in the NW of Section 15, Township 1N, Range 66W, where the dry residue gas will be metered and sold to Colorado Interstate Gas for subsequent delivery to regional markets via existing transmission pipelines. The 8 -inch residue gas sales pipeline will incorporate the acquisition of a 30 ft. permanent easement plus 50 ft. temporary construction easement providing for a total 80 ft. construction right- of-way. 3) A 4 -inch NGL sales pipeline. The NGL sales pipeline will originate at the Ft. Lupton Gas Plant and travel east approximately 0.6 miles, following the proposed gas plant access road to an existing Enterprise Products valve set located approximately 325 ft. south of the intersection of WCR 35 and Eagle St., where the natural gas liquids will be sold for subsequent delivery to regional markets via an existing Enterprise transmission pipeline. The 4 -inch NGL sales pipeline will incorporate the dedication of a 30 ft. permanent easement within the gas plant property. 2. Explain how this proposal is consistent with the intent of the Weld County Code, Chapter 22 of the Comprehensive Plan. Response: Section 22-2-10(D) of the Weld County Code states that "extraction of natural resources is an important part of the economy of the County." These proposed pipelines will contribute to the expansion of the County's industrial economic base by providing increased capacity for future marketing of natural gas production in Weld County. Additionally, Section 22-5-100 (A) states that a County goal is to "promote the reasonable and orderly exploration and development of oil and gas mineral resources." Per Chapter 22 of the Code, oil and gas facilities are allowed as a use by right in the A. (Agricultural) zone district, in which all properties along the proposed pipeline routes are zoned. In addition, Weld County Code Section 23-2-200 et seq. permits construction of oil and gas support and service facilities in agricultural zoned districts. Section 22-5-90 of the Weld County Code Comprehensive Plan states: "The most efficient and environmentally friendly way to transport crude oil is by pipeline, rather than by truck. Transportation of the product by pipeline has less impact on County roads. Less truck traffic also benefits air quality in the area". Weld County Code Section 22-5-100 further states: "oil and gas activities should be planned to accommodate current and future subdivision activities to the extent such development can reasonably be anticipated". The proposed pipelines meets the objectives outline in the Weld County Code Comprehensive Plan without rezoning or changing the use of the land. The pipelines will be buried beneath the ground's surface and therefore the effect on any active agriculture will be temporary and isolated to the construction phase of the project. Following construction, the surface along the pipeline right-of-way will be restored to its prior condition, and agricultural activities may resume. However, oil and gas pipelines require a Use by Special Review (USR) permit in Weld County. 3. Explain how this proposal is consistent with the intent of the Weld County Code, Chapter 23 (Zoning) and the zone district in which it is located. Response: Weld County Code Section 23-3-20 identifies that oil and gas production infrastructure is allowed as a use by right in agricultural zone districts. The pipelines are located primarily within the agricultural zone district, and such zoning allow oil and gas support and service infrastructure such as pipelines. Any impacts to actively cultivated land by the project will be temporary, and agricultural operations can resume once the pipelines are operational. Section 23-3-40 also indicated that oil and Gas Support and Service Facilities are acceptable as a Use by Special Review in the district. 4. What type of uses surround the site (explain how the proposed use is consistent and compatible with surrounding land uses). Response: The respective pipeline routes are primarily located in unincorporated Weld County in the agricultural zone district. The area surrounding the pipelines primarily consist of plowed fields, pivot irrigation system, County Estates and Patches Estates subdivisions, which are immediately adjacent to an existing pipeline corridor. The proposed pipelines will parallel this existing corridor in the area south of the Fort Lupton Gas Plant. The project is consistent and compatible with the surrounding land uses as a use allowed by right under Weld County Code Section 23-3-20. 5. Describe, in detail, the following: a. Number of people who will use this site Response: During construction, approximately 50-75 construction personnel, including the construction contractor and Discovery's construction management team, will be required to construct the pipeline along the right-of-way. Following construction, the respective pipelines will be operated and maintained by approximately 6-12 people per day, including full time employees, contractors and third party truck drivers. b. Number of employees proposed to be employed at this site Response: The operation and maintenance of the pipelines will be performed by trained and qualified operators and pipeline technicians stationed at the proposed compression and processing facility (PRE 16-0113 and 0114). There will be approximately 7-10 full-time employees working out of the compression and processing facility, with two shifts per day anticipated. The day shift will have approximately 6-8 full time employees, followed by a night shift with a single operator on duty. Shift hours have yet to be confirmed, but a typical shift rotation may be 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. c. Hours of operation Response: The hours of operation for the respective pipelines will be 24 hours per day, 7 days per week, 365 days per year. d. Type and number of structures to be erected (built) on this site Response: There will be one (1) remote valve site located along the right-of-way within Weld County. This site will be located approximately 8 -miles upstream of the compression and processing facility, 0.3 -miles east of the intersection of WCR 6 and WCR 41 off County Road 6. e. Type and number of animals, if any, to be on this site Response: There will be no animals on site. J. f. Kind of vehicles (type, size, weight) that will access this site and how often Response: During construction, stringing trucks will be used to haul and string pipe along the length of the right-of-way. Stringing activities are anticipated to take approximately 3-4 weeks and would start following clearing and grading of the right-of-way and once ditching activities have progressed far enough along the length of the right-of-way to avoid conflicts. In addition, welding trucks and 1 -ton pick-up trucks will be required along the right-of-way for welding activities and construction management personnel. Following construction, during normal operations, vehicles will not be required along the right-of-way. Operations personnel will periodically drive the adjacent county roads along the right-of-way for visual inspection of the easement and to perform routine maintenance activities (approximately 2-3 round trips per month). g. Who will provide fire protection to the site Response: The Fort Lupton Fire District provides fire protection to this area. A referral packet will be sent to the District by the County. In advance of the USR submittal, Discovery has met with the district Fire Marshal who has reviewed the proposed pipeline route and emergency response plans. h. Water source on the property (both domestic and irrigation) Response: The proposed pipeline alignment crosses seven (7) irrigation canals: C. Farmers Reservoir Irrigation Company ("FRIG)" o Beebe Seep Canal Bowles Seep Ditch o Burlington Ditch Extension (East & West) Speer Canal ❖ Denver Hudson o Freedom Canal a Andrews Canal Young Canal No other water sources occur along the pipeline rights -of -way. i. Sewage disposal system on the property (existing and proposed) Not applicable. There are no sewage disposal systems (existing or proposed) along the respective pipeline rights -of -way. During construction, all construction debris and solid waste will be stored in dedicated waste receptacles at staging areas and strategically located areas as the respective facilities, and will be disposed of as necessary in accordance with state and local regulations. Temporary sanitary facilities will be provided for construction workers at the compression and processing facility site and staging areas along the right-of-way. No additional sewage disposal systems or facilities will be required If storage or warehousing is proposed, what type of items will be stored During construction, all materials and equipment will be staged out of the proposed compression and processing facility (2o16PRE-0113 and 0114). Following construction, no storage or warehousing will occur along the right-of-way. 6. Explain the proposed landscaping for the site. The landscaping shall be separately submitted as a landscape plan map as part of the application submittal. Response: Following construction, the right-of-way and all disturbed areas will be restored to their pre - construction conditions and contours. Agricultural land will return to agricultural uses, native grassland habitats would be reseeded. Similarly, all wetland areas will be restored to pre -construction conditions and contours, topsoil will be replaced and the wetland will be reseeded. Wetlands should return to preconstruction conditions within 1-2 growing seasons. Permanent erosion control measures will be installed as required and seeding would occur in accordance with landowner requirements. Invasive and noxious weeds will be controlled after construction to minimize further propagation pursuant to Chapter 15, Articles I and II of the Weld County Code, until the right-of-way is restored. No additional landscaping is proposed. 7 Explain any proposed reclamation procedures when termination of the Use by Special Review activity occurs. Response: During operation of the pipeline, should it become necessary to decommission a portion of the line for maintenance or repair activities, pressure on the pipeline would be reduced to a safe operating pressure, or completely blowndown utilizing blowdown valves at the respective remote valve sites or either end of the pipeline. Liquids on the NGL sales pipeline would be displaced utilizing a pipeline pig propelled with dry air, nitrogen, water or other approved inert material. All decommissioning activities would be performed using written procedures designed for the specific requirements and situation. As part of the decommissioning plan, all local emergency responders would be notified in advance and affected landowners notified, as necessary. There is no intention of ceasing operations of the respective pipelines once they are operational. However, in the event that any portion of the pipeline system is permanently decommissioned, that portion will be evacuated, cleaned, isolated, and abandoned in place or removed per all State and local regulations and per the respective landowner agreements. Explain how the storm water drainage will be handled on the site. Response: Prior to construction, a Stormwater Management Plan ("SWMP") will be prepared and submitted to the County, as part of the Erosion and Sediment Control Plan to address stormwater drainage and erosion control activities associates with construction activities. Stormwater Best Management Practices ("BMP")'s will be installed for the construction phase in accordance with the requirements of the SWMP. Discovery is currently in the process of acquiring the Stormwater General Permit, which will be obtained prior to performing any construction activities. A Stormwater Management Plan ("SWMP") will be prepared as required by Colorado Department of Health & Environment. 9. Explain how long it will take to construct this site and when construction and landscaping is scheduled to begin Response: Construction of the respective pipelines will begin following receipt of all applicable permits, and is expected to take approximately 3-4 months. Restoration of the rights -of -way will occur after the pipeline is installed and backfill is completed, or in the spring following construction if weather conditions would inhibit the proper restoration activities, so as to minimize the length of time that the open trench and un-stabilized right-of-way is present. 10. Explain where storage and/or stockpile of wastes will occur on this site. Response: During construction, all construction debris and solid waste will be stored in dedicated waste receptacles at staging areas and strategically located areas as the respective facilities, and will be disposed of as necessary in accordance with state and local regulations. Temporary sanitary facilities will be provided for construction workers at the compression and processing facility site and staging areas along the right-of-way. No additional sewage disposal systems or facilities will be required 11. Please list all proposed on -site and off -site improvements associated with the use (example: landscaping, fencing, drainage, turn lanes, etc.) and a timeline of when you will have each one of the improvements completed. Response: The proposed natural gas gathering trunkline will incorporate one (1) remote valve site located along the right-of-way within Weld County. This site will be located approximately 8 -miles upstream of the compression and processing facility, 0.3 -miles east of the intersection of WCR 6 and WCR 41 off County Road 6. The remote valve will be an above ground, 12 -inch manually operated ball valve with blowdowns to facilitate pipeline maintenance, as necessary, and will be enclosed in a 30 foot wide by 60 foot long 6 ft. chain link fence with an outrigger and 3 -strands of barbed wire for security.

Location: Eagle View Adult Center 1150 Prairie Center Parkway Brighton, Co 80601 Purpose The Boardwalk Pipeline is a newly proposed pipeline system designed to transport produced natural gas from a Central Delivery Point ("CDP") Facility in Brighton, Colorado to a new Natural Gas Processing Facility near Fort Lupton, Colorado. The project will consist of a new CDP Facility, west of the intersection of Potomac St and E 136th Ave, and approximately 25 miles of 12 -inch natural gas pipeline with an initial design capacity of 20 million standard cubic feet per day and ultimately could carry up to 40 million standard cubic feet per day, terminating at a new natural gas processing facility north of County Rd. 10, west of WCR 35. Prior to submitting permit applications with Weld County, as neighbors and landowners to the Natural Gas Processing Facility, and landowners along the preferred pipeline route in Weld County, we invite you to a neighborhood meeting to address questions or concerns and to provide you more information regarding our company and the project. This will be an open House style meeting with experts from different groups across the project. We hope you are able to join us to provide input before our application submittal. Boardwalk Pipeline Neighborhood Meeting Invitation Map Contact Information If you have questions or need any information before the meeting, please feel free to contact: Jeffery Brewster 318.348.7693 Jeffbrewster2@gmail.com ION ENGINEERING July 8, 2016 Weld County — Application for Conditional Use Permit Discovery DJ Services, LLC Boardwalk Pipeline Project Reference: Neighborhood Meeting Summary Discovery DJ Services, LCC ("Discovery"), as owner and operator, held a Neighborhood Meeting for the Boardwalk Pipeline Project on Tuesday, June 8, 2016 from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. at the Eagle View Adult Center located at 1150 Prairie Center Parkway, Brighton, CO 80601. The following summarizes the Discovery representatives and property owners in attendance and documents the questions and concerns / issues raised by attendees, the responses, and how they have been addressed within the application for the Use by Special Review permit. In attendance were seven (7) representatives for Discovery as outlined below: Attendees: U lI II Project Staff Cory Jordan — Discovery Midstream, LLC L I Andy Siegfried — Zion Engineering, LLC Jeff Brewster — Quality Check Energy Services, LLC I -I Brianna Mederna — Zion Engineering. LLC Chris Roberts - Quality Check Energy Services, LLC II Eric Berg — LWR Consultants. Inc. Mike Monschein - Quality Check Energy Services; LLC The meeting was held as an open forum so that property owners could ask questions of any of the Discovery representatives. Presentation materials included a walk through on Google Earth' of the preferred and alternate routes, preliminary site layouts of the Plant and Meter site, and images of proposed equipment. Concerns I Issues & Responses 1. Question (Ms. Betty Jones): When you say you bury the pipe. How deep? Response: Federal Codes require pipelines to be buried to a depth of 3 feet; however we will bury the line with a minimum 4 feet deep as an added measure of safety. Since this pipeline is considered a gathering line, it is not required to be buried to a specified depth under federal and industry codes; however we plan to design and construct the pipeline in accordance with these codes. The pipeline will have an allowable operating pressure of 1480 psig. 2. Question (Mr. David Lohnes): What is your test pressure? Response: An 8 -hour hydrotest will be completed on the line in at least 2 sections. The pipeline with be tested to 90-95% of Specified Minimum Yield Strength (SMYS) or approximately 2,400 psig. 3. Question (Mr. David Lohnes): What will be your quality control process? Will you include padding (of the ditch)? �i ZI O N ENGINEERING Response: All welds will be performed by certified welders following qualified weld procures. All welds will be visually inspected by certified welding inspectors and 100% of the welds will be X-rayed, although federal codes only require 20% X-ray. The pipe will be coated with 12-14 millimeters of Fusion Bond Epoxy (FBE) and will be inspected for holidays in the coating prior to lowering into the ditch, and again following placement in the ditch. If the existing subsoil is rocky, or in such a condition that padding is necessary, then the ditch will be padded using either suitable padding material or sandbags placed along the ditch line. 4. Question (Mr. David Lohnes): What about settling? Response: The plan is to crown the ditch to mitigate settlement of the ditch line following construction. Should any settlement occur, Discovery will restore the settled area to meet the contour of the land prior to construction. 5. Question (Mrs. Kathleen Bensman): How does the ROW affect access to my property? Will you fence (the right-of-way)? Response: The planned route will not be crossing your property; however, for properties we do cross, we will provide means for access during construction of the pipeline so as not to block your property access. The right-of-way will not be fenced in, but will remain open — as it is now. If there is an existing fence on our property that the pipeline will need to cross, we would add a gate to the fence to enable construction equipment to pass. Following construction, the fence would be restored to its original, or better condition, as agreed upon in the individual landowner agreements. Question (Mr. Ross Bensman): What would happen 20 years down the road if you do not use (the pipeline) anymore? Response: Generally what happens, if necessary, you would de -inventory the line and fill it will nitrogen, or other inert gas. It is however/ not our intent to abandon the pipeline. 7. Question (Mr. Gerald De Graff): on the properties that you are crossing, what are you looking for based on area and access? Response: We are seeking a 30 foot permanent easement, and will require another 50 feet for construction right-of-way. 8. Question (Mr. Gerald De Graft): I went out to the back of my yard and I think that you might be going through a house near me. There is also a well in my back yard and there will be an issue with the pipeline hitting that well. Response: The pipeline route is not currently going through your property (reviewed on overhead presentation). We have surveyed the pipeline route and do not approach any homes, or wells, inside either the construction of permanent right-of-way. 9. Question (Ms. Julie Bates): What is the second phase, mentioned? Would there be another line in the right-of-way? �i ZION ENGINEERING Response: The second phase mentioned is a potential crude oil pipeline that would be added along 120th Avenue in Adams County. There are currently no plans for additional phases of the pipeline in Weld County. We will have additional phases to add equipment to the plant as the production through the pipeline increases, but we'll construct the full property of the plant now. 10. Question (Ms. Julie Bates): What is the construction timeline? Response: We are planning to start construction as soon as all the necessary permits are received and anticipate construction to take approximately 2-4 months for the pipeline. The plant construction could be more like 3-5 months, depending on weather and a variety of other things. 11. Question (Mr. Jim Bates): My property has a fence for grazing. Would you need to add gates to the fence on my property? We also have a wet area. What would you do for that area? Response: Yes, we would need to add a gate along your fence where the pipeline crosses the fence. The gate would have one of our locks and one of your locks on it so you'd be able to access through the gate if needed. The wet area you mentioned would likely be matted during construction. If you have specific items you want to address on your property, please make sure to that the specifics are spelled out in detail within the right-of-way agreement before you sign. We will abide by the agreements. 12. Question (Mr. David Lohnes): Will there be a permanent access Road? Response: There will not be a permanent access road to the pipeline right-of-way. The plant will have a permanent access road off of County Road 35 and Eagle Street (reviewed in the overhead presentation). 13. Question (Mr. David Lohnes): What will happen when you extend the project to grove volumes? Would you add another line? Response: The pipeline is designed to have the ability to increase volume in the future as production in the area increases. The 12 -Inch pipeline is sufficient for the anticipated volumes and the capacity can be further increases with the addition of compression along the line in the future if needed. At this time, we do not plan to add an additional line. 14. Question (Mr. David Lohnes): Who actually owns this pipeline? Response: Discovery DJ Services, LLC will own and operate the pipeline. 15. Question (Mr. David Lohnes): What stops you from changing what you promise now to what happens in the future, if you sell the pipeline? (other oil and gas companies) have changed documents in the past. Response: The recorded right-of-way agreements are a legally binding document and will carry through even if the line is sold in the future. �i ZI O N ENGINEERING 16. Question (Mr. David Lohnes): Are you boring the Canals? Response: Yes, we will boring or horizontal directional dri I all canals and County roads. 17. Question (Ms. Gineva Smith): Would I be able to get out of my house when the construction is going on? Response: Yes, you will be able to enter and exit your house during construction. 18. Question (Mr. Josh Shipman): It would be helpful if we had access to the *. Kmz. Would you be able to provide those files? Response: All the documents that we will submit for the county permits will become public following the county review. If you have any specific questions about the alignment, please let us know, or feel free to talk with Chris Roberts or Jeff Brewster following the meeting. 19. Question (Ms. Betty Jones): Will there be different subcontractor for the line? Response: A single contractor is preferred, however, we may have two contractors — one for the pipeline and one for the gas plant and meter site. 20. Question (Mr. Ray Jones): When will you start construction? Will this be during irrigation season? Response: We plan to start construction as soon as we receive all of the required permits. This will likely be sometime in late 201 / early 2017, during winter months and won't impact the local irrigation season. 21. Question (Mr. Danny Jones): Tell me about the maintenance (of the pipeline right-of-way). Response: Following construction, the right-of-way will be restored to its original, or better condition. Pipeline markers will be installed at line -of -sight along the right-of-way. The restoration of the right- of-way will be monitored in accordance with the applicable state and local requirements, typically to approximately 80% restored. Following construction and restoration of the right-of-way, we'll need to ensure that we have access to the right-of-way and will periodically drive, or fly, along the right-of- way to check for damage to the pipeline —typically from third parties, and ensure normal operation. There are no permanent roads planned to the right-of-way. 22. Question (Mr. Danny Jones): What about restoration? Response: We will restore the right-of-way to the existing condition. If you grow a certain crop, we can compensate you to replant to existing crop if that is your desire. If there is rangeland, then the seed mix will be outlined in the right-of-way agreement. We would plan to restore the right-of-way immediately following construction, unless weather or frozen soil conditions would prevent the restoration from taking. In that case, we would plan to restore the right-of-way as soon as weather conditions would allow. 23. Question (Ms. Mary Viles): I have a power line on the back section of my property. Would you have a 30' setback of that? 4),,ezION ENGINEERING Response: We will butt -up to the electrical easement. 24. Question (Ms. Alice Conway): I'm at County Road 6 & 37, why are you jogging around that area? Why is there a stake in my property corner? Response: There is not enough room along County Road 6, between the road and. Mr. Beierle's property to allow the pipeline to go straight through. The route is however, off of your property. The survey stake on your property isn't part of our project, but may be for another company or that might be for a control point forsurvey. 25. Question (Mr. Gerald De Graff): There is already a pipeline going a similar route, why are you not using the existing line? Why do we need so many individual pipelines? Response: There are multiple products going different directions in the respective pipelines. Some are water lines, while others are natural gas or crude oil. Some are gathering lines and others are transmission lines. The goal of this project really is to reduce the number of truck traffic on the road. 26. Question (Mr. Danny Jones): What is the right-of-way width? Response: The area that will be required for the construction will be 80 feet. The final right-of-way easement will be 30 feet. 27. Question (Ms. Mary Viles): When will you start surveying? Response: Survey has been performed already on the preferred route. We will stake the centerline and right-of-way limits for the pipeline prior to construction. The actual construction activities will be more intrusive than survey. 28. Question (Ms. Mary Viles): What will happen after survey? Response: After survey is completed, we will meet with each respective landowner to review the proposed route on their property and make the necessary adjustments to meet special requests and then prepare and go over the legal right-of-way agreements with each landowner. 29. Question (Mr. Ross Bensman): Can't you force an easement? Response: That is not how we want to do business. We want to work with each landowner to find ways to do our project with minimal impact to the county and respective landowners. 30. uestion (Ms. Mary Viles): Is this the only pipeline Discovery Midstream has in Colorado? Response: Yes, this will be Discovery DJ Services' first pipeline in Colorado. ,ZION ENGINEERING 31. Question (Mr. David Luis): What would be the signs for leaks? Response: For this line, you may smell a heavy condensate or petroleum smell, see dead vegetation along the right-of-way, or possibly hear the leak. 32. Question (Mr. Jim Bates) : Who is Zion Engineering? Response: Zion Engineering is the engineering firm working with Discovery DJ Services for the design and permitting of the pipeline, gas plant and meter site. They are located in Greenwood Village, south of Denver in the Tech Center. 33. Question (Mr. Jim Bates): What is the lifespan of the pipes? Response: 50 years is the minimum design basis. The pipeline will be protected with cathodic protection, which will increase the life of the pipeline.

The main 12 -inch pipeline in Weld County is approximately 11miles long. The Fort Lupton Plant is located at the northern end of the line along with a Meter Station site. In addition there is a 0.5 mile long natural gas line and 0.3 mile long pipeline to a Meter Station at the north end of the project. Attachment A, Figure 1 provides a site vicinity map. LWR Consultants, Inc. (LWR) completed a field and GI /literature review of the pipeline route and Plant Site to determine if the project area supports important plant communities, wetlands, and wildlife habitat, potential habitat for special status species, or known cultural resource /archeological resource sites. Mr. Eric Berg of LWR completed a field review and literature review to complete this assessment. Mr. Berg is a Certified Wildlife Biologist and Certified Professional Wetland Scientist with over 20 years of experience working in Colorado. LWR has completed over 100 projects in Weld County over the past 15 years. 2.0 Site Description, Vegetation, Wildlife LWR completed a field reconnaissance of the project in April 2016. The field review was designed to identify potential ecological and environmental issues that may need to be addressed as the project is developed.. 1 2.1 General Land Use and Plant Communities The dominant existing land -use on the project site is agriculture. The route crosses approximately 8.6 miles of agricultural lands. The route crosses a mix of irrigated and dryland agricultural lands. Common crops include: dryland wheat, corn, alfalfa and grass hay. Some areas of formerly tilled land have been converted to Crop Reserve Program (CRP) lands and seeded hack to grassland. The route also crosses areas of native grassland that are used for livestock grazing. Attachment A, Figures 2-3 show an aerial view of general land uses crossed by the route. The Fort Lupton Plant site is located on an area of CRP (formerly tilled seeded grassland). The route crosses approximately 3.14 miles of native grassland.. Dominant plants include: blue grana, buffalo grass, western wheatgrass, needle and threadgrass, a variety of (orbs, prickly pear cactus, sand sagebrush, and snakeweed. The conditions of native grassland areas in the area is generally poor. Past disturbances and invasive species have resulted in poor vegetation conditions in many areas, The Meter Station is located on an area of native grassland. Wetland vegetation is located along several swales and drainages. Table 1 summarizes the vegetation types crossed in Weld County. Table 1.

Based on this review potential wetland areas were identified. During the field review wetland areas were mapped using aerial photo interpretation field truthed based on site conditions. Attachment A, Figures 3-4 shows the location of wetland, stream and canal crossings. The pipeline ROW crosses approximately 715 feet of wetlands, and 9 canals/ditches. Note: the Beebe Seep Canal is more like a stream than a canal. Table 1 summarizes water and wetland crossings. 2 Table 2.

Wetland hydrology is present in most of the wetlands via a high ground water table. The route does not cross any wooded riparian habitat. It is not possible to avoid wetland crossings with the ROW, completing HDD crossings of wetlands would be cost prohibitive. An appropriate permit (likely a Nationwide #12 under Section 404 of theClean Water Act) would be obtained from the Army Corps of Engineers (ACOE) for wetland crossings. The project would follow all requirements from the ACOE for wetland restoration. Creation of new wetland would not be required because no permanent fill or loss of wetland would occur. Mitigation would be to restore wetlands in place immediately after pipeline construction is completed. The ACOE would require wetland restoration in order to close the Section 404 Permit. Prior to construction wetland topsoil would be stockpiled. Where possible the ROW width would be reduced at wetland crossings. Post construction wetlands would be restored to preconstruction conditions and contours, wetland topsoil would be replaced and the wetland would be reseeded with a representative seed mix (approved by the ACOE). Wetland restoration should take 1-2 growing seasons. 3 2.3 Threatened, Endangered and Special Status Species LWR reviewed habitat conditions on the site to determine if the area provides potential habitat to any federally listed species that are protected under the Endangered Species Act (ESA). Species that are federally listed (formerly listed as Endangered or Threatened) are protected by the ESA. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) is the federal agency responsible for administering the ESA. An USFWS ECOS-IPaC data base search was completed for the project. Based on a search of the USFWS ECOS-IPaC review there are several listed species that have the potential to occur in the project area (USFWS 2016b). Table 3 summarizes species that have the potential to occur in the vicinity of ' e proposed project. Table 3 also summarizes the potential for the species to occur in the area. Table 3.

USFWS Species List, Boardwalk Project Project construction is unlikely to impact any Federally listed species. Ditch and canal crossings do not support the thick riparian habitat (thick shrub and tree cover) that is preferred by the Preble's meadow jumping mouse. In addition, all canals/ditches would be crossed by HDD with no disturbance of the canal bed or adjacent habitat. The route does cross potential habitat for the Ute ladies' tresses orchid and Colorado butterfly plant at wetland crossings. There are no known locations for either plant species within 30 miles of the project area. However, surveys for these 2 plant species would be completed during the summer of 2016. If either species is located consultation would be completed with the USFWS 2.4 Other Wildlife Species LWR did not locate anraptor nests on or adjacent to the site while completing the field review. There are no large trees, cliffs, rock outcrops or other good potential nest sites for large raptors. The site does provide good foraging habitat to a variety of raptors (red-tailed hawk, rough -legged hawk, ferruginous hawk, northern harrier, golden eagle). Nesting northern harriers could be present in the taller vegetation along Little Owl Creek. The site provides moderate to poor potential nesting habitat to the mountain plover (Charadrius montanus). The mountain plover nests in shortgrass prairie and shrub -steppe habitats. Areas that have been heavily grazed, prairie dog colonies, and areas with sparse vegetation provide the best nesting habitat. Shortgrass prairie habitats in Weld County support known populations of nesting mountain plover. The native grassland habitat along this ROW tend to be have tall grasses intermixed with sand sagebrush. The project is located in an area with extensive human disturbance (agriculture, roads, houses). Wildlife species present include those that are adapted to human use and presence. Wildlife species that are common in the area include: coyote; red fox; a variety of small mammals (deer mouse, house mouse, jackrabbit, cottontail rabbit); a variety of birds (meadow lark, mourning dove, house finch, English sparrow, horned lark, black -billed magpie, starling, American kestrel, red-tailed hawk, ring-necked pheasant, Canada goose, and other species); and a few reptiles (western terrestrial garter snake, gopher snake) and amphibians (bullfrog, leopard frog, spadefoot toad, tiger salamander) (Andrews and Righter 1992, Colorado Division of Parks and Wildlife 2016, Fitzgerald et al. 1994, Hammerson 1999). The project crosses yearlong white-tailed and mule deer range and a short distance of mule deer winter range (Attachment A, Figure 5). There are no mapped or known big game migration corridors in the area. No winter concentration areas are mapped in the area (CDPW 2016). There is no mapped pronghorn range in the area. There are no known greatblue heron or other communal nesting waterbird rookeries located on or near the site. There are a variety of other migratory birds potentially present on and adjacent to the site. There are is one known bald eagle nest near the pipeline (Attachment A, Figure 4)(CDPW 2016). The bald eagle is protected by the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act and the Migratory Bird Treaty Act. This nest is located approximately 1,500 feet (500 yards, 0.28 miles) from the edge of the pipeline ROW. This nest is within the 0.5 mile buffer zone designated by the CDPW. The CDOW recommends restricting activities within 0.5 miles of an active bald eagle nest between the dates of November 1 and August 15 (CDPW 2008). The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) recommend restricting activities near bald eagle nests between January 1 and July 31. Project construction is scheduled to start in January 2017, during the time when bald eagles start the courtship and nesting process. If the nest is not active in 2017 then there will be no issues with construction during the nest period. In order to avoid impacting the nest 6 consultation will be completed with the CDPW and U EWS during the summer of 2016 to determine the best ways to comply with Federal regulations and avoid a nest take. Several raptor species have the potential to nest in the area (the most common: red-tailed hawk, Swainson's hawk, northern harrier, American kestrel, great -horned owl). LWR did a field reconnaissance for nesting raptors in April 2016. Tree leaf cover may have prevented identification of some nests. Two raptor nests (one unknown, and one likely red -tail hawk) were identified near the ROW (Attachment A, Figure 6). Note: no nesttrees or potential nest trees would be removed by construction. The route crosses 3 black -tailed prairie dog colonies (approximately 3,054 feet of crossing)(Attachment A, Figure 6). These colonies also provides potential nesting habitat to the burrowing owl, and mountain plover. The burrowing owl is protected by the Migratory Bird Treaty Act and also regulations from the Colorado Division of Wildlife (State Listed as Threatened). Prior to any prairie dog control or disturbance of the prairie dog colonies if the control is completed during the period of burrowing owl activity (March 1 to October 3 1) a survey of the prairie dog colony for burrowing owls should be completed. If burrowing owls are present no prairie dog colony control or disturbance should be completed. Grassland and wetland habitats that are crossed by the project provide good nesting habitat to a variety of migratory birds. Winter construction should avoid impacts to nesting birds. If construction extends into the spring and summer nesting migratory grassland birds could be impacted. Project construction related disturbance (traffic, noise, and increased human activity) could result in the temporary displacement of wildlife near construction zones. Limited mortality of small and less mobile animals (small mammals, some reptiles and amphibians) would occur with construction. No long term disturbance impacts would occur once construction along the ROW is completed and the ROW is restored. ROW restoration, preconstruction raptor and burrowing owl surveys (if construction is proposed during the nesting season for these species), HIED of stream and canal crossings and other mitigation/minimization and restoration measures proposed will help reduce impacts to wildlife and habitats (See Section 3 below). 2.5 Cultural Resources Centennial Archaeology, LLC completed a Class I Cultural Resource Review for the project (Centennial 2016). The file search was performed through the Colorado Office of Archaeology and Historic Preservation (OAHP) and consisted of an examination of the Compass database and a request of a GIS clip of sites and surveys in the file search area. Class I results, include records of all archaeological investigations that have been conducted, and all cultural resources (prehistoric and historic archaeological sites as well as historic resources) that have been recorded in the aforementioned sections. The results also include any National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) properties and districts, Historic T.J.S. Geologic Service (USGS) maps and General Land Office (GL) records were also consulted in an effort to identify historic trails, transportation routes, homesteads, or other historic resources that intersect the study area. Attachment A, Figures 7-11 shows the results of a Class I Cultural Resource survey completed for the project in Weld County (Centennial Archeology, LLC 2016). Twelve previously recorded cultural resources in the Class I study area occur within Weld County. Eight sites are historic in age, and four resources are prehistoric. Five historic sites have been evaluated as eligible for the NRHP, and three are considered not eligible. One of the prehistoric sites is evaluated as NRIIP eligible. The remaining three prehistoric resources are not eligible. An examination of historic 1:24,000 scale 7.5 minute USGS topographic maps for Weld County, including the Hudson (1951) quadrangle and the Fort Lupton (1950) quadrangle shows 16 buildings within the study area. Several historic irrigation features are depicted intersecting the study area, including the Denver -Hudson Canal, the Neres Canal, the Beebe Seep Canal, the Bowles Seep Canal, the West Burlington Extension Ditch, and the Speer Canal. Six roads are shown intersecting the Weld County portion of the study area, including County Road 4, County Road 6, County Road 8, County Road 10, County Road 33, and County Road 41. Finally, the 1951 Hudson quadrangle shows the Chicago, Burlington, and Quincy Railroad passing through the study area in Weld County. No buildings or structures including roads appear on the GLO maps in the Weld. County portion of the Class I study area. 3.0 Proposed Mitigation and Minimization Measures Stream, Ditch and Wetland Crossings: • In areas with trenched wetland crossings the construction ROW would be reduced from to feet, Blading would occur only over the trench line, the traffic lane would be matted with no vegetation disturbance. Construction vehicles would drive on the matted area • All stream and named ditch/canal crossing to be completed by HDD to avoid disturbance of stream and ditch bed and banks. General Construction, Erosion Control, Restoration • Follow SWMP and BMP's to minimize erosion, sedimentation and dust during construction • Restoration using NRDC recommended seed mixes or landowner seed mixes (non- agricultural lands) • Invasive and noxious weeds would he controlled after construction until the ROW is restored. • All drainage tiles will be located prior to construction by contacting landowners and local soil conservation agencies. • All roadway crossings and construction access points will be located to document and insure that safe and accessible conditions exist throughout the construction phase. • All staging areas and extra workspace areas will be located prior to construction to ensure compliance with the SWMP. 8 • Construction scheduling will be planned to minimize the length of time that open trenches and un-stabilized ROW (stripped of vegetation and not reseeded or mulched) is present. Restoration and revegetation will be scheduled as soon as possible following pipeline installation and burial. Ideally, revegetation/ restoration will be completed immediately following pipeline construction. • Minimize Blading of Vegetation- Where possible, practicable and safe, vegetation blading/clearing will be limited to the trench line and associated spoil area. Existing vegetation will remain in place; construction access will be by drive ing over existing vegetation. • Topsoil Stockpiling- Prevent the mixing of topsoil and subsoil by using soil segregation methods. The top 6-12 inches (additional topsoil depth may be required across agricultural lands if requested by landowners) of topsoil will be segregated from the subsoil and stockpiled in a separate pile. Topsoil will be stripped and stockpiled from the ditch line and adjacent spoil areas. • Cut and Crush Vegetation- Traditionally, vegetation is cleared with a bulldozer down to bare soil across the entire construction ROW. In order to minimize disturbance and the need for extensive use of restoration treatments, the contractor will attempt to minimize the ROW width wherever possible. Where possible, vegetation will be crushed by track vehicles or cut with a brush hog instead of cleared. Clearing will be necessary over the trench and possibly the passing lane, depending on fire protection needs for welding operations. Additional disturbance may occur if soil padding is used to work over adjacent pipelines. Wherever blading occurs, topsoil will be salvaged, stored separately and protected. • Cuts and fills to maintain grades will be minimized; any that are necessary will be blended with the existing terrain to maintain drainage and slope stability and to minimize potential visual impacts. All design, material, construction, operation, maintenance, and termination processes shall be in accordance with safe and proven engineering practices. The construction of the pipeline shall not inhibit public use of existing roads and trails, or inhibit wildlife or livestock movement. All equipment and vehicular access into the pipeline project will be confined to existing roads and the established ROW corridor. No major reconstruction or rerouting of these roads is intended. • Construction sites shall be maintained in a sanitary condition at all times; waste materials at those sites shall be disposed of promptly at an appropriate waste disposal site. "Waste" means all discarded matter including human waste, trash, garbage, refuse, oil drums, petroleum products, ashes, and equipment. Wildlife and High Interest Species: • A Raptor nest survey will be completed if pipeline construction extends or is scheduled for the raptor nesting season (January 15 to July 31). If active raptor nests are found near the ROW (within 0.3 miles) the CDPW will be consulted to determine if any nest protection measures are needed. Consultation will be completed with the CDPW and USFWS regarding the bald eagle nest. Based on this consultation appropriate mitigation will be determined to avoid a nest take. 9 • A nesting Burrowing Owl Survey will be completed if any black -tailed prairie dog towns are crossed during the period of owl activity (March 15 to October 31). If nesting burrowing owls are located consultations would occur with the CDPW to determine if any nest protection measures are needed. • A the ladies' tresses orchid and Colorado butterfly plant survey would be completed in all wetlands that are proposed to be crossed by trenching. This survey would be completed during the plants blooming period (late July through August). If either species is located consultation would occur with the USFWS. • The Colorado Parks and Wildlife District Wildlife Manager for the area will vo c consulted prior to construction. If there any issues of wildlife mortality (entrapment in the trench, or other mortality) the District Wildlife Manager will be notified. Archeology: • On call archeologist and paleontologist would be available to consult if any potential archeological (stone tools, fire rings, foundations, bones) or paleontological (fossils) are found during construction/excavation of the trench and. ROW. Project construction would be temporarily stopped until review by the archeologist/paleontologist. If needed the State Historic Preservation Office (ST-TPO) would be consulted. • Impacts to historic canal/ditch crossings would be avoided by completing these crossings by HDD. 5.0 Literature Cited Andrews, R. and R.

The project proponent plans to construct a natural gas gathering system and associated facilities including a CPD site near the southern end of the line and a plant site near the northern end. The exact location of the plant site has not been determined at this time. The gathering line extends for approximately 28 miles. This letter report was prepared by Centennial Archaeology, LLC (Centennial) for LWR Consultants, Inc. The Class I study area consists of the proposed gathering line, the CPD site, a o.5 -mile buffer, and a mile -wide buffered area at the northern end of the corridor where the plant site will be. The route passes through private and state owned property in the following sections: • Township 1 S -Range 67W, Sections 24 and 25 • Township 1S -Range 66W, Sections 19, 20, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36 • Township 2S -Range 66W, Sections 1, 2, 3 • Township 2S -Range 65W, Sections 4, 5, 6 • Township 1S -Range 65W, Sections 4, 5, 8, 9, 16, 17, 20, 21, 27, 28, 29, 32, 33, 34 • Township ilk -Range 65W, Sections 19, 20, 21, 27, 28, 30, 33, 34 • Township 1 -Range 66W, Sections 10, 11, 14, 15, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27 The file search was performed through the Colorado Office of Archaeology and Historic Preservation (OAHP) and consisted of an examination of the Compass database and a request of a CIS clip of sites and surveys in the file search area. Class I results, which were received on April 19, 2016, include records of all archaeological investigations that have been conducted, and all cultural resources (prehistoric and historic archaeological sites as well as historic resources) that have been recorded in the aforementioned sections. The results also include any National Register of Historic Places (TNRHP) properties and districts. A supplemental OAHP file search was conducted on May 31, 2016. Historic U.S. Geologic Service (USES) maps and General Land Office (LO) records were also consulted in an effort to identify historic trails, transportation routes, homesteads, or other historic resources that intersect the study area. The 1 Mr. Eric Berg study area for the Class I is defined as a 0.5 -mile -wide corridor (0.25 -mile buffer on either side of the proposed gathering line) . This corridor was chosen to limit the file search results to relevant sites that fall within the scope of the Class I investigation. The Class I corridor passes through sections of Adams, Denver, and Weld counties (Figure 1). The Class I file search revealed that 18 previous investigations have been undertaken within the study area. Nine of these surveys took place in Adams County, four took place in Adams and Denver Counties, two took place in Adams, Denver, and Weld Counties, one took place in Adams and Weld Counties, and two took place in Weld County. Table 1 provides additional information about the surveys, which predominantly consist of investigations relating to highway construction and improvements. However, projects were also conducted for transmission and communication lines, pipelines, a sewage treatment facility, and Denver International Airport. These surveys have resulted in the documentation of 39 cultural resources in the Class I study area (Figures 2-10). Summary information for all previously recorded sites in the study area is presented in Table 2. Information about individual resources is presented below by county. Adams County: Twenty-six of the previously recorded sites in the Class I study area are located in Adams County. Eighteen of these sites are historic in age, while the remaining eight sites are prehistoric. Of the 18 historic sites, seven have been evaluated as NRHP eligible, and eleven are not eligible. Seven of the prehistoric sites are evaluated as not eligible, and one is assessed as needs data. A review of historic 1:24,000 scale 7.5 minute USGS topographic maps for Adams County, including the Brighton (1965) and Mile High Lakes (1966) quadrangles, shows 114 buildings within the study area that are 50 years in age or older, if they are still in existence. These maps also depict three irrigation features crossing through the study area in Adams County, including the Fulton Ditch, the O'Brian Canal, and the Denver -Hudson Canal. The 1965 and 1966 maps also suggest that numerous roads intersecting the study area are at least 50 years old, including I- 76, Highway 85, East 120th Ave., East 128th Ave., East 132nd Ave., East 136th Ave., East 152nd Ave., East 160th Ave., Potomac St., Sable Blvd., Crystal St., Kennedy Ave., Fairplay St., Granby St., Picadilly Rd., Gun Club Rd., and Powhaton Rd. Additionally, the Chicago, Burlington, and Quincy Railroad (now the Burlington and Northern Railroad) is also shown intersecting the study area on the 1965 Brighton quadrangle. A LO survey plat from 1865 of Township 1S, Range 66W shows an unnamed road trending northwest/southeast through sections 30, 31, 29, 32, and 33. This road would have passed within the buffered Class I study area. The 1867 survey plat of Township 1S, Range 65 W shows an unnamed road or trail trending northwest/southeast that intersects the study area in the NE 'A of the NE 'A of Section 17 and the NW 'A of the NW '/4 of Section 16. No other structures were depicted on the GLO survey plats for Adams County in the Class I study area. Denver County: One previously recorded site is located in Denver County. This site is a prehistoric open campsite, and has been assessed as not eligible for the NRHP. The 1965 Mile High Lakes 7.5 minute quadrangle map does now show any buildings, structures, or roads within the Denver 2 Mr. Eric Berg County portion of the Class I study area. No structures or other resources appear on the GLO maps for the Denver County portion of the Class I study area. Weld County: Twelve previously recorded cultural resources in the Class I study area occur within Weld County. Eight sites are historic in age, and four resources are prehistoric. Five historic sites have been evaluated as eligible for the NRHP, and three are considered not eligible. One of the prehistoric sites is evaluated as NRHP eligible. The remaining three prehistoric resources are not eligible. An examination of historic 1:24,000 scale 7.5 minute USGS topographic maps for Weld County, including the Hudson (1951) quadrangle and the Fort Lupton (1950) quadrangle shows 16 buildings within the study area. Several historic irrigation features are depicted intersecting the study area, including the Denver -Hudson Canal, the Neres Canal, the Beebe Seep Canal, the Bowles Seep Canal, the West Burlington Extension Ditch, and the Speer Canal. Six roads are shown intersecting the Weld County portion of the study area, including County Road 4, County Road 6, County Road 8, County Road 10, County Road 33, and County Road 41. Finally, the 1951 Hudson quadrangle shows the Chicago, Burlington, and Quincy Railroad passing through the study area in Weld County. No buildings or structures including roads appear on the GLO maps in the Weld County portion of the Class I study area. It is worth noting that the file search data mainly reflect prior investigations, and do not necessarily include all cultural resources in the project area. A comprehensive field survey would be necessary to identify the full range of sites. Please contact myself or Kristin Gensmer if you have questions or need additional information. Sincerely, U "` Benjamin Perlmutter Project Director 3 Figure 1.

Development Engineering Review: Hayley Brown Comment: The 7 -day review of the application is complete and there were comments from Hayley Brown, Development Review Engineer. She asks that in the narrative you state: Section 1.A.5 of the Drainage criteria provides an exception for pipelines and transmission lines. The applicant/ pipeline property owner acknowledges 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 pondi ng of storm run-off. Response: Section 3.11 "Drainage Criteria" has been added to the application narrative, incorporating the requested verbiage. Public Works, Access Management Team - Morgan Gabbed Comment: Morgan Gabbert with the Public Works Access Management Team noted that an application was not provided. The application submitted was for a lone site near CRs 6 and 31 identifying an existing access point. Planning staff requests that all points of access for the pipeline and the staging areas associated with the pipeline be identified and addressed. Perhaps the temporary access points are addressed through the right-of-way permit for the pipeline? Please contact Morgan at 970.400 3778 to discuss, if applicable. Response: Zion contacted Morgan Gabbert on June 10, 2016 to discuss these access permits. During this discussion, Ms. Gabbert noted that two construction access permits will be included with each right-of-way permit for Weld County road crossings. Due to the high number of county road crossings, it is anticipated that only the single existing access permit for right-of-way access near WCR 6 and 31, utilizing an existing access, as provided with the initial USR application submission will be required for construction access. Per a phone discussion on August 8, 2016, Morgan will review the submitted single existing access permit for right-of-way access near WCR 6 and 31. The other accesses will be included with the right-of-way use application for each Weld County road crossings. She identified that no additional information was needed at this time, prior to referral review. Attachment B - Parcel Owners Index Comment: Are these all of the property owners and respective parcel numbers for the preferred route pipeline? Response: Yes, the parcel owners index furnished under Attachment B to the USR application reflect the property owners and the respective parcel numbers for the preferred route of the 12" Natural Gas Gathering Trunkline and the 8" Residue Gas Line, accordingly. The 4" NGL sales pipeline will be solely located on the Alliance Parcel, which is the starting point for the 8" Residue Gas sales pipeline and the last parcel, or terminating point for the 12" Natural Gas Gathering Trunkline. A copy of this list in Microsoft' Excel1"' has been furnished with this response. Page 112 ION ENGINEERING Attachment C — Surrounding Property Owners Notification List Comment: The surrounding property owners list is reflective of the preferred pipeline alignment route? Response: Attachment C furnished with the USR application has been updated to include the property owners within Weld County that were notified via Attachment D.1 of the neighborhood meeting conducted on June 6, 2016. Attachment D ` Neighborhood Meeting Notification & Summary Comment: Document D*1- The Map is a "Corrected Map" Please identify or state why a corrected map was provided to the surrounding property owners. Response: The original notification letter and associated map mis-labeled Colorado interstate 76 as Hwy 85. This error was corrected and the original notification letter with the corrected map was submitted to the property owners accordingly. Comment: Document D.2 - Neighborhood Meeting Summary, Question 3 Response, line 4, please identify the word to be inserted after ... and will be inspected for Response: The response to Question 3 should read as follows "All welds will be performed by certified welders following qualified weld procures. All welds will be visually inspected by certified welding inspectors and 100% of the welds will be X- rayed, although federal codes only require 20% X-ray. The pipe will be coated with 12-14 millimeters of Fusion Bond Epoxy (FBE) and will be inspected for holidays in the coating prior to lowering into the ditch, and again following placement in the ditch. If the existing subsoil is rocky, or in such a condition that padding is necessary, then the ditch will be padded using either suitable padding material or sandbags placed along the ditch line." Comment: Question 18 makes reference to a *.kmz file. Was this document included in your submittal? document be a part of the presentation before the PC and BCC Boards? Finally, what is a .kmz file. If not will the Response: *.kmz is a file extension for a placemark file used by Google Earth®. "KMZ" stands for Keyhole Markup language Zipped and is a compressed version of a KML (Keyhole Markup Language) file, which is used to show the pipeline route geographically referenced to real world latitude and longitudinal coordinates. A copy of the *.kmz file will be available for use in the presentation before the Planning Commission and Board of County Commissioners, if necessary, however, this information is more accurately depicted in the USR pipeline maps. Attachment E — USR Pipeline Map Comment: USR Pipeline Maps) - Each drawing identifies a minimum of one temporary work area per sheet. As the work areas appear to be outside of the temporary construction easement of 80 feet in width how are the areas established? Is the area a part of the surface owners lease? A separate document associated with others? Please define and provide supporting documents or a statement for their existence and use. Response: During construction of the pipeline, additional Temporary Work Spaces ("IWS") are required to accommodate additional spoil at points of intersection, where the pipeline changes direction, to accommodate the installation and tie-in of elbows or other pipeline fittings; on either side of highway/ canal, railroad, county road crossings or other crossings requiring installation by bore or horizontal directional drill methods to accommodate space for equipment and materials required for constructing the crossing; temporary space for layout out ("stringing") and welding pipe for crossings prior to installation at crossing locations where there is an insufficient linear space to allow the pipe to be strung and welded up within the 80 foot construction right-of-way; and finally for staging of equipment and materials along the right-of-way during construction. These Temporary Work Spaces will be included in the easement agreements with the respective property owners and will be restored in accordance with the applicable construction permits and respective property owner agreements.
