SUBJECT: USR15-0078 Circle B Laydown Yard
The Weld County Department of Planning Services-Engineering has reviewed this proposal. Staff
comments made during this phase of the application process may not be all-inclusive, as other issues may
arise during the remaining application process.
COMMENTS:
General Project Information/Location:
Barrett is proposing a laydown yard
This project is adjacent to CR 52 and east of CR 89 Parcel number 096927400002.
Access is from CR 52.
Access:
An access permit has been approved for 1 O&G shared access to the site (AP14-00410).
Entrance gates (if applicable) must be set back a minimum of 100 feet from edge of shoulder to allow a
truck with trailer or RV to pull completely off of the roadway and open the gate. In no case shall any
vehicle(s)stopped to open a gate be allowed to create a safety issue for roadway users.
Roads:
County Road 52 is a gravel road and is designated on the Weld County Road Classification Plan as a local
road, which requires 60 feet of right-of-way at full buildout. The applicant shall delineate on the site plan
the future and existing right-of-way. All setbacks shall be measured from the edge of future right-of-way.
This road is maintained by Weld County.
Traffic:
No traffic counts are available in the area.
The traffic narrative stated that the site would have 20 trucks round trips/day with 75% of the traffic goes
west to CR 89 operating 24/7.
TRACKING CONTROL:
Tracking control is required to prevent tracking from the site onto public roadways. Minimal standards are
listed below. Temporary Tracking Control shall be used during construction unless permanent tracking
control is installed ahead of construction activities.
More than 10 round truck trips/day(tandem or semi-trucks)or more than 50 round passenger vehicles trips:
Access onto gravel roads requires a tracking control device and a minimum of 300ft of recycled
asphalt or road base.
*Recycled concrete is not allowed in County ROW
**Tracking control devices can be double cattle guards or other specialized device
*** Tracking control for unmaintained public ROW is required just prior to entering publically maintained
roadways
Improvements and Road Maintenance Agreement:
An Improvements Agreement between the Applicant and the County will be required for this project. Based
upon discussion with PW, the site that shares this parcel under USR13-0066, is also required to enter into
a IA. Traffic is only 1 truck under the rule of thumb of 21 trucks/day and share access with USR13-0066 it
would only be fair for both companies to enter into agreements. It will detail the approved haul route(s),
outline when offsite improvements will be triggered, and include a maintenance agreement for the haul
routes.
Improvements/Road Maintenance Agreement: An example agreement is available at:
http://www.co.weld.co.us/Departments/Pla n n i ngZon i ng/Land UseApplicationsAssista nce/ApplicationAssist
ance.html
An Improvements Agreement is required for sites with required offsite improvements. Collateral is
required to ensure the improvements are made.
Road Maintenance is typically included as a section of the Improvements Agreement when the
County feels that the site activities may impact the County roadways. Possible mitigations included
in the road maintenance agreement may include but are not limited to: dust control, specified haul
routes, damage repairs, and future improvement triggers.
Drainage Requirements:
The latest drainage code is available on the Department of Planning Services-Engineer website.

fugitive dust, fugitive particulate emissions, blowing debris, and other potential
