SUBJECT: USR15-0003
DATE: FEBRUARY 11, 2015
Environmental Health Services has reviewed this proposal for a Site Specific
Development Plan and Use by Special Review Permit for any Use Permitted as
a Use By Right, an Accessory Use, or a Use By Special Review in the Commercial or
Industrial Zone Districts (storage and staging of trucks and equipment for a roustabout
and excavating business along with minor vehicle maintenance), provided that the
property is not a Lot in an approved or recorded subdivision plat or lots parts of a map
or plan filed prior to adoption of any regulations controlling subdivisions in the A
(Agricultural) Zone District.
There will be up to 9 employees accessing the site. The application states there will be
no full time employees. The existing residence will be used for storage however the
application also states that security personnel may live there which would require the
well to be repermitted to commercial.
The application indicates bottled water and the existing septic system will be provided
for employees. The property is currently served by a shared domestic well that may
require repermitting to commercial and the existing septic system will have to be
reviewed by an engineer to determine if it is adequately sized for the business. The
waste handling plan indicates a portable restroom will be provided for drivers, which is
acceptable.
A dust abatement plan was not submitted. An abatement plan is required for onsite
dust which includes drives and parking areas. Also include how dust will be controlled
on the stored dirt pile.
The waste handling plan indicates that employee waste will be collected by Best
Cleaner Disposal. There is minor maintenance of vehicles that will occur on site,
however the waste handling plan states no fluids will be generated and major
maintenance will occur at 15724 CR 18, which is not permitted for vehicle maintenance.
The waste handling plan will need to be revised to include disposal of all items related
to maintenance including; fluids, tires, batteries and other scrap parts generated from
vehicle maintenance that cannot be disposed of in a dumpster. According to the
application, there will be no washing of vehicles. If there will be floor drains in the
maintenance shop the drains must discharge to a watertight vault, and contents
removed for proper off-site disposal. If there will be fuel storage onsite that shall be
indicated in the waste handling plan and secondary containment is required.
We have no objections to the proposal; however, we do recommend that the following
conditions be part of any approval:
We recommend that the following requirements be met prior to allowing the plat to be
recorded:
1. The applicant shall submit a revised waste handling plan, for approval, to the
Environmental Health Services Division of the Weld County Department of Public
Health & Environment. The plan shall include disposal/recycling of tires,
batteries and other scrap parts generated from vehicle maintenance and
disposal/recycling of all waste fluids such as oil and antifreeze. Include the
names, telephone numbers and addresses of the waste handlers and
disposal/recycling facilities.
2. In the event the applicant intends to utilize the existing septic system at the
home, for business use, the septic system shall be reviewed by a Colorado
registered professional engineer. The review shall consist of observation of the
system and a technical review describing the system's ability to handle the
proposed hydraulic load. The review shall be submitted to the Environmental
Health Services Division of the Weld County Department of Public Health and
Environment. In the event the system is found to be inadequately sized or
constructed, the system shall be brought into compliance with current
regulations. Alternately, a new septic system may be installed for business use.
3. The applicant shall submit a Dust Abatement Plan, detailing on site dust control
measures, for review and approval, to the Environmental Health Services
Division of the Weld County Department of Public Health and Environment.
4. In the event the applicant intends to utilize the existing domestic well at the
home, for business use, the applicant shall submit written evidence of a
commercial well to the Department of Public Health and Environment.

A portion of the SW % of the SE % of Section 9, T2N, R66W, 6th P.M.
Water Division 1, Water District 2
Dear Mr. Gathman,
The submitted material does not appear to qualify as a "subdivision" as defined in § 30-28-
101(10)(a), C.R.S. Therefore, pursuant to the State Engineer's March 4, 2005 and March 11,
2011 memorandums to county planning directors, this office will only perform a cursory
review of the referral information and provide comments. The comments will not address the
adequacy of the water supply plan for this property or the ability of the water supply plan to
satisfy any City regulations or requirements.
The applicant is requesting a Site Specific Development Plan and Use by Special Review
Permit to allow storage and staging of trucks and equipment for a roustabout and excavating
business, along with minor vehicle maintenance, to take place on their property. The
property is 3.2 acres and is described as Lot A of RE-1155. The property has an existing
residence and water well, operating under well permit no. 177217. Application materials
indicate that approximately 9 employees will be on-site to pick up vehicles daily and conduct
occasional vehicle maintenance; there will be no permanent on-site employees. The proposed
water supply for the business is bottled water and a portable toilet.
Permit no. 177217 was issued pursuant to C.R.S. 37-92-602(3)(b)(I) on April 13, 1994 to use an
existing well completed in to the Laramie-Fox Hills aquifer. The use of groundwater from the
well is limited to ordinary household purposes inside one single family dwelling, the watering
of domestic animals, and the irrigation of not more than 10,000 square feet of home gardens
and lawns. Permit no. 177217 does not support the use of water for a commercial business.
It appears that the applicant has obtained an alternate water supply for the proposed
commercial purposes and will use the well for residential uses only. Should the applicant

desire to use the well for commercial purposes in the future, they may apply for a permit that
expands the use of the exiting well to include commercial uses; this office cannot guarantee
the approval of any well permit application.
This office has no objection to this application so long as the applicant continues to use the
well for its permitted uses. If you or the applicant has any questions in this matter, please
contact Karlyn Armstrong of this office.
