I864- MEMORANDUM t� )1,I k` ✓'l 11 f• TO: Weld County Commissioners V✓ DATE: May 22, 2016 FROM: Chris Gathman ( rd- ------ SUBJECT: Proposal to modify USR15-0020 to change from a Non-Commercial to a Commercial Class II Oilfield Waste Disposal Facility) Location: West of and adjacent to County Road 115 and north of and adjacent to County Road 104. Legal Description: Subdivision Exemption, SUBX15-0011; being part of the SW4 of Section 16 T9N R59W. Request A Site Specific Development Plan and Special Review Permit for Mineral Resource Development Facilities, Oil and Gas Support and Service (Modification from Non-Commercial to Commercial Class II Oilfield Waste Disposal Facility- Saltwater Injection Facility) in the A(Agricultural)Zone District. Background: USR15-0020 (Non-Commercial Class II Oilfield Waste Disposal Facility—Saltwater Injection Facility)was approved by the Board of County Commissioners on July 15, 2015. The USR15-0020 plat has not been recorded. The original applicant for this case was Whiting Oil and Gas. Whiting transferred operatorship of the facility to BNN Western, LLC, a subsidiary of BNN Water Solutions and Tallgrass Energy Partners, in December of 2015. The request indicates that no other 3rd party waste will be disposed of under this USR (only waste generated by Whiting). Should the Board approve this, the following modifications would be required to the USR15-0020 resolution: • Remove the word "Non Commercial"from the resolution title at the top of page#1. • Remove the word "non commercial"from the resolution under the second whereas on page #1. • Remove the word "Non Commercial" from Development Standard #1 on page 6 of the resolution. • Remove the sentence"No Class II waste, other than Class II waste from wells operated by the injection well operator, is permitted for disposal."from Development Standard #5 on page 6 of the resolution." Staff Recommendation: The major potential impact that could result from this change would be the increase in truck traffic. The application indicates that this will not increase traffic coming to and from the site (Whiting). The original USR traffic narrative indicates a total of ten (10)tanker trucks would access the site on a daily basis. The original request stated that the majority of waste water will be piped to the facility. Additionally, an Improvements and Road Maintenance Agreement is still attached as a condition of approval to address impacts with dust control, damage repair, specified haul routes and future triggers for road improvements be required. Staff recommends approval of these requested changes. TALLGRASS ERCY PARINEKS BNN WESTERN, LLC May 19, 2016 VIA Email Weld County Department of Planning Services Chris Gathman, Planner III 1555 N. 17`h Ave. Greeley, CO 80631 Re: Request to modify Use by Special Review Permits USR15-0020 & USR15-0021 Mr. Gathman: Pursuant to our previous conversations, this letter is to formally outline and request modifications to the terms of the referenced USR permits. BNN Western, LLC ("BNN") , a subsidiary of BNN Water Solutions, LLC and Tallgrass Energy Partners, LP acquired certain assets from Whiting Oil & Gas Corporation ("Whiting") in December, 2015. Among the assets acquired included three operating saltwater disposal wells ("SWD's") in Weld County. Two of these SWD's. permitted under USR15-0020 & USR15-0021 . were approved by Weld County as excerpted from the Resolution: ". . . (Non-Commercial Class Il Oilfield Waste Disposal Facility- Saltwater Injection Facility). . . " Further, Development Standard No. 5 and No. 6 of the respective Resolutions state: "No Disposal of waste, other than Class II, as currently defined by the Environmental Protection Agency, is permitted. No Class ll waste, other than Class ll waste from wells operated by the injection well operator, is permitted for disposal. Any changes from the approved Class Il use will require an amendment to this Use by Special Review Permit. " BNN assumed operatorship of the SWD's from Whiting in December, 2015 and currently only dispose of Class II waste produced from oil and gas wells operated by Whiting, no other third party waste is being disposed of in the SWD's. Also, there has not been any change in truck traffic or other uses greater than what is permitted under the USR permits. Almost all waste that is being disposed of is transported to the site via underground pipelines from the production tank batteries. Due to the highlighted language of the excerpts and any other similar restrictive language within the Resolutions, BNN would like to make the following requests of the Planning Department and Board of County Commissioners: 370 Van Gordon Street Lakewood, CO 80228- 1519 303.763.3305 1 . Modify the language of the Resolutions to, at a minimum, allow for the disposal of Class II waste from wells operated by Whiting, regardless of who the injection well operator is, so long as there no increase in truck traffic, noise, or dust at the facilities. 2. Expanding on the request in #1 , BNN would like to further request that the USR permits allow for the disposal of any third party Class II waste that is transported to the site via pipeline, so long as there is no increase in truck traffic, noise, or dust at the facilities. Any expansion of the facilities or projected increase in truck traffic that is not currently permitted by the USR's would be subject to a future amendment. BNN greatly appreciates the county's cooperation and consideration in this matter. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact me at 303-763-3305.

Signatures of all fee owners of property must sign this application. If an Authorized Agent signs, a letter of authorization from all fee owners must be included with the application. If a corporation is the fee owner, notarized evidence must be included indicating that the signatory has to legal authority to sign for the corporation. Signature: Owner or Authorized Agent Date Signature: Owner or Authorized Agent Date 1. Explain, in detail, the proposed use of the property. Whiting Oil and Gas is proposing a produced water injection facility in the A (Agricultural) Zone District on a 308.85 acre parcel located in the southeast quarter of Section 16, Township 9 North, Range 59 West. This facility will handle only Whiting Oil and Gas produced water and will not operate as a commercial facility. The water that is brought to this facility is from the surrounding vicinity. This water will be delivered to the location primarily by pipeline, however the ability to truck water is also proposed . The site is accessed from an existing lease road . From the intersection of CR 110 and CR 119, go south to CR 104. Turn west on CR 104 to the lease road entrance, turn right (north) to the well site. The vicinity map shows the proposed water injection facility location as it relates to county roads. This facility is anticipated to operate twenty four hours per day, seven days a week. Whiting Oil and Gas is concurrently submitting a subdivision exemption application for the land that is being leased from Wade E. Castor and Deland Todd Castor, where this facility will be constructed. The land that this disposal well sits on has already been cleared as it is drilled adjacent to wells that are producing oil and gas from the Niobrara formation. The facilities for this well are on land just northwest of the disposal well and this location has not yet been cleared . The facility is anticipated to be unmanned other than routine maintenance being done on the facility. The expected flow into this facility is up to 15,000 barrels per day and is expected to reach this flow very shortly after being put into service if not immediately. As stated, the majority of this volume will be piped in, eliminating the need for approximately 50 trucks daily that are currently traveling great distances on Weld county roads to commercial injection wells. 2. Explain how this proposal is consistent with the intent of the Weld County Code, Chapter 22 of the Comprehensive plan. With the development and use of the saltwater disposal wells, it will provide the most efficient means of transportation . Sec 22-5-90, subsection C, states that the most efficient and environmentally friendly way to transport product is by pipeline, rather than by truck. The well will eliminate the need for approximately 50 water trucks per day, which will reduce the consumption of resources, damages to the road and road congestion, and help with the mitigation of dust. This also supports Sec 22-3-60, Transportation Goals and Policies and the goal of considering alternative modes of transportation, and reducing the overall Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT). 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. With the development and use of this saltwater disposal well, it will provide the most efficient means of transportation. Sec 23-1-40, Purpose and Intent, paragraph A, subsection 1, is met with the lessening of congestion in the streets and roads or reducing the waste caused by excessive amounts of road use. 4. What type of uses surround the site (explain how the proposed use is consistent and compatible with surrounding land uses). Surrounding the proposed location of the saltwater disposal well are oil production facilities to support overall production of oil and natural gas. The location of the wells were also discussed and approved by the landowner, through the use of a Surface Use Agreement. No residential homes are located near or are visible to this location. 5. Describe, in detail, the following: a. Number of people who will use this site. These sites will be unmanned and the primary method of water delivery will be by pipeline. Traffic associated with this disposal well will be minimal and will include up to five visits per day by a pickup truck to do routine maintenance and inspections. The facility is being built to accommodate up to 50 water trucks daily, however, the expectation is that the facility will see an average of 10 water trucks daily under normal operating conditions. The few water trucks that will visit this site will be travelling many fewer miles on county roads than they otherwise would without this facility. b. Number of employees who will use this site. The site will be unmanned and the well will be monitored remotely. c. Hours of operation. Twenty four hours a day, seven days a week. d. Type and number of structures to be built on this site. • Up to twenty four 750 BBL tanks. • Up to 2 1,000 BBL tanks. • Up to 4 400 BBL tanks. • One Separator. • One Enclosed Pump Skid. • One Power Distribution Building. • One Truck Unloading Skid. • One Data Controls Building with remote monitoring. • One communications tower. • One disposal wellhead. e. Type and number of animals, if any, to be on this site There will be no animals housed on the cite. f. Kind of vehicles (type, size, weight) that will access this site and how often. Trucks that will access the site include 18-wheeler water haul trucks with a capacity of 190 BBLs. These trucks will access the site an average of 10 times per day. In addition, 4-wheel drive pickup vehicles will access the site for maintenance and inspections, with no more than 5 visits per day. g. Who will provide fire protection to the site? The property falls within the New Raymer — Stoneham Fire Protection District h. Water source on the property (both domestic and irrigations). There is no existing water source (domestic or irrigation ), on the property. Bottled water for human consumption will he provided during construction . i. Sewage disposal system on the property (existing and proposed). There is no existing sewage disposal system on the property. Portable toilets will be provided during construction and once the site is operating. There are no plans to permit for a sewage disposal system. J. if storage or warehousing is proposed, what type of items will be stored? No storage or warehousing is proposed for this site. 6. Explain the proposed landscaping for the site. There are no neighbors around the site to require screening and there is no irrigation to the site to support landscaping; therefore, no landscaping is proposed. The native vegetation around the site will remain. 7. Explain any proposed reclamation procedures when termination of the Use by Special Review activity occurs. When termination of the facility occurs, the facilities will be removed and the land will be returned to its native state including its natural terrain as well as reseeded with native vegetation. 8. Explain how the storm water drainage will be handled on the site. The natural terrain of this site slopes from the southeast to the northwest, with slopes rangin from 0 - 9%. The location being applied for an USR is 9.795 acres on an approximately 308.85 acre parcel. Whiting Oil and Gas has included in the application a professional engineered stamped final drainage report to support the USR process. A water quality feature has also been added to the plats. 9. Explain how long it will take to construct this site and when construction and landscaping is scheduled to begin. Whiting Oil and Gas anticipates that it will take three months to construct the site. No landscaping is proposed for the site. The native vegetation around the site will remain. 10. Explain where storage and/or stockpiles of wastes that will occur on this site. There will be no storage and/or stockpiles of wastes on this site. H . 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. There will be no improvements to the landscaping. Surrounding the proposed well are other wells, which have already been permitted. A fence will be constructed around the well on Wildhorse 16 L pad. This improvement will be completed during the anticipated three month construction period . The natural terrain of this site slopes from the southeast to the northwest, with slopes ranging from 0 - 9%. The location being applied for an USR is 9.795 acres on an approximately 308.85 acre parcel. Whiting tang Oil and Gas has included in the application a professional engineered stamped final drainage report to support the USR process. A water quality feature has also been added to the plats. Drainage Report The location being applied for an USR is 9.795 acres on an approximately 308.85 acre parcel. Whiting Oil and Gas has included in this application a professional engineered stamped final drainage report. Please refer to the attached Final Drainage Report for Wildhorse 16 SWD Injection Facility, dated January 28, 2015, for specific drainage details. Traffic Narrative Trucks that will access the site include 18-wheeler water haul trucks with a capacity of 190 barrels. These trucks will access the site an average of 10 times per day. In addition, 4-wheel drive pickup vehicles will access the site for maintenance and inspections, with no more than 5 visits per day. As this site will be operational 24 hours a day and is generally an unmanned facility, there are no peak traffic hours when more water hauling vehicles would be expected to access or use the site. The pickup truck visits, approximately S per day, will generally be during normal business hours between 6 AM and 4 PM. All vehicles are expected to access this site from CR 104 (Access Permit# AP10-00136). During operation of this facility, most of the traffic, approximately 75%, is expected to be accessing the site from CR 104 from the east and the remainder is expected to access the site from CR 104 from the west. Whiting Oil and Gas will agree to improvement triggers as required by Weld County of: -200 vpd or significant dust as identified by County-Mag-Chloride dust abatement -300 vpd alternative pavement -400 vpd pavement -10 vph during peak hour turning left into the facility-left deceleration lane -25 vph during peak hour turning right into the facility-right deceleration lane -SO vph during peak hour turning right out of the facility-right acceleration lane Waste Handling Plan The location will be unmanned, so there will be no trash service at this saltwater disposal well location during operation. Employees and contract truck drivers will be responsible for taking any trash generated onsite to a location with waste handling capabilities. During construction, a trash dumpster will be provided on-site. Whiting's preferred trash service is Wolf Waste Removal. The only wastes to be handled on this site are water and trace amounts of oil. The water will be disposed of in the injection well. The oil will be separated from the water and held in four onsite oil tanks. This oil will be removed from the site via truck initially, with the possibility of adding a pipeline to move the oil off the site at a later date. Whiting has multiple oil trucking companies on contract in the area and will likely utilize multiple companies to truck the oil. Scale inhibitor is the only chemical planned to be stored onsite. Whiting would keep no more than 500 gallons onsite at any given time. These chemicals would be stored in a tank and would either be located in a building with a sump or be contained within a secondary containment of corrugated steel with a liner. The location will depend on where they will be most effective. The purpose of these chemicals is to treat the water to extend equipment life. The chemicals will not need to be disposed of offsite as they will be added to the water in trace amounts to perform their function. Tank bottoms will be cleaned as needed, which Whiting anticipates to be approximately once per year. They will be cleaned by draining the tanks, injecting hot water into the tanks to mix up the solids and re-draining the tanks. Waste Management is the company Whiting Oil and Gas anticipates using for removal/disposal. a Closure Plan Once this well is no longer in operation, the proper steps will be taken to return this site to its native state. This will include plugging and abandoning the well according to current regulations, removing all equipment to approved locations, bringing the land back to its original slope, and planting native grasses to re-vegetate the location. Wild horse 16 L Water injection Facility Dust Abatement Plan • During construction, a water truck will be utilized to control dust. • The access road and facility pad will consist of gravel road base. Since traffic to the site will be sparse and at various times of the day, dust will primarily be controlled by limiting the speed of vehicles on the site. If for any reason the traffic to the site is expected to be heavier than normal, water trucks will be utilized to control dust. Air Pollutant Emission Notice A copy of the Air Pollutant Emission Notice (APEN ) that is submitted to the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) will be sent to the Weld County Department of Public Health and Environment when it becomes available. This site is an APEN reportable site but will not reach any APEN permitting thresholds. A copy of the APEN report will be provided when it become available. Groundwater Monitoring Plan To ensure the integrity of groundwater, Whiting will construct a SWD well with numerous barriers of protection: Whiting will run a string of 9-5/8" steel casing to approximately 1600' and cement the casing to surface; In addition, Whiting will run a string of 7" casing to approximately 8300' (the total depth of the well) and will cement the casing to surface Finally, Whiting will run a string of 3-1/2" internally coated injection tubing inside of the 7" casing with a packer, which is a device that provides an additional pressure seal ins de the wellbore. A Cement Bond Log (CBL) will be run to evaluate and ensure the cement behind the casing is capable of providing a pressure and mechanical barrier — engineers and regulators at the COGCC will verify the cement quality is adequate. Whiting's proposed disposal zones are between 7000' and 8200', which is even deeper than the Niobrara formation, from which oil and gas are currently being extracted. The three (3) strings of steel tubulars, in conjunction with 2 layers of cement, will ensure protection of groundwater from the water being injected into the deeper formations. An initial pressure test will be performed on the casing, tubing and packer per the Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (COGCCC) regulations to ensure the wellbore is competent (otherwise known as a Mechanical Integrity Test, or MIT), and will be witnessed by a COGCC official. By law, Whiting will comply with a maximum injection pressure and maximum injection rate, also set and regulated by the COGCC. Monthly Injection pressure and rate records will be kept and submitted to the COGCC. Daily monitor ng will be performed to ensure the wellhead and all surface equipment is functioning properly. Automation equipment will be installed for an added safety feature to shut-down operations if any major component should malfunction. Finally, Whiting will perform Mechanical Integrity Tests every five (5) years to prove wellbore integrity, to be witnessed by a COGCC official. If at any time wellbore integrity is in question, Whiting will cease injection operations and restore integrity to the wellbore. 1 Weld County Treasurer Statement of Taxes Due Account Ntnnher RW i$58n Parcel 04691( 0U0002 Legal Descnpt:un Situ, Address 2h87 %2 lot) :.' c8R► Account: R0438586 CASTOR WADE E 22791 HIGHWAY 39 WELDONA, CO 80653.7908 Year Charges Billed Payments Balance 2013 S5_ 7_ 552.72 S0-00 Grand Total Due as of 10'03/2014 50.00 Fa% Billed nt 2' !3 Rule, Ii,r Tai Area 1204 - 1214 Authority Mill Levy Amount Values Actual Assessed 11'ELD COUNTY 16.8040000• S24 88 AG-(►RA/IN(i LAND 55.091 SI.480 SO1001 DINI RI: 12 68370000 SI0. 12 1',\\t'N1:I FIRE 0000000 55.091 51.480 S2 96 AINIS .11 \I( ►R C( >l.l.ECl: 6.3(120000 59.32 111(311 PLAINS LIBRARY 3 2640000 S4 63 WI:ST (iREELI:Y CONSERVATION 0.4 (400(K1 SO 61 lase. tidied 2013 35.62(0000 5'?

Trucking Increasing pipeline infrastructure continues to be a priority for BNN in the operation of our SWDs . Compared to trucks , pipelines limit environmental impact in many ways . • Diminished truck traffic • Fewer spills • Reduced user error • Increased volume turnover The daily permitted capacity of our existing Weld County gathering and disposal system eliminates the need for over 3Oo trucks per day to move the same volume to other SWD 's .
