Said tract of land contains 75 . 135 acres more or less including the county road rights-of-way along the northerly and easterly boundaries and 72 .415 acres more or less excluding said road rights-of-way. WHEREAS, the petitioner was present, and WHEREAS, evidence was presented by the petitioner and witnesses for the petitioner in support of the grant of this Special Use Permit, and WHEREAS, evidence was presented by surrounding property owners urging denial of the Special Use Permit on the grounds of adverse effects on the neighborhood, and n _ I )L-_4.c`)'1 780232 WHEREAS, the Board also heard evidence from staff members of the Weld County Health Department and the Colorado State Department of Health, and WHEREAS , Section 3 . 3.E. of the Weld County Zoning Reso- lution authorizes such uses in an Agricultural District upon approval by the Board of County Commissioners, after a finding that the proposed operation conforms to the requirements of Section 3. 3. E. of said Zoning Resolution, and WHEREAS, the Board of County Commissioners of Weld County, Colorado heard all the testimony and statements of those present, has studied the request of the petitioner, the comments of surrounding property owners, the recommendations of the Weld County Planning Commission, the testimony of the Colorado and Weld County Departments of Health, and all of the exhibits and evidence presented in this matter and having been fully informed and satisfied that the request, for a Special Use Permit for a Chicken Manure Dehydration Facility on the heretofore described real estate does not conform to the purposes of Section 3 . 3 .E. of the Weld County Zoning Resolution. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of County Commissioners of Weld County, Colorado, that the application of the petitioner for a Special Use Permit for a Chicken Manure Dehydration Facility on the aforementioned tract of land, be and hereby is, denied as failing to satisfy the requirements of the Weld County Zoning Resolution, and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED by the Board that the following findings of fact and conclusions of law be adopted to support the above denial : 1. The dehydration facility as presented by the Petitioner is not in compliance with the Weld County Comprehensive Plan. The Weld County Comprehensive Plan states : "The expansion and development of agri-business and agriculturally oriented industry will be encouraged provided these enterprises do not adversely affect the total economy or environment. " -2- Evidence presented by the Weld County Department of Health and surrounding property owners and residents of the area shows that the proposed operation will affect the surrounding environment due to the odorous emissions from the facility. The Weld County Comprehensive Plan further states : "Because water, air, and surface pollution are a vital concern to all residents of the county, the state , and the nation, it will be the policy to encourage only those develop- ments that can show that they will not con- tribute to the pollution problem of the area that they are prepared to either build ap- propriate control devices at their own expense, or will pay sufficient revenues to the ex- isting pollution controlling district or agencies to insure proper treatment without increasing the cost to the existing users of the system." The applicant has not met its burden of proof in demon- strating that the dehydration facility will not contribute to odor pollution. Although the applicant presented evidence of the installation of extensive control devices, evidence submitted by the Weld County Department of Health and surrounding property owners and residents of the area shows that the pollution control devices installed have not eliminated the negative impacts of odors and other omissions on the surrounding properties and residents. 2. The applicant has not demonstrated compliance with the standards of Section 3 . 3.E. 2 . of the Weld County Zoning Resolution relating to Special Uses. It is the finding of the Board of County Commissioners that the dehydrating facility as presented by the applicant is not compatible with surrounding area, is not in harmony of the character of the neighborhood, has an adverse effect upon the immediate area, will adversely affect the future development of the area, and is not in the best interests of the health, safety, and welfare of the inhabitants of the area and the county. Evidence presented at the April 25 , 1978 hearing and submitted in writing to the Board of County Commissioners demonstrates that the odor control devices installed in the dehydration facility have not been effective in eliminating -3- the odor which emanates from the facility. Substantial testimony was presented by surrounding property owners and residents of the area that the odor from the facility has and will continue to have an adverse effect on the surrounding property values , and on the general quality of life in the area. In addition, evidence was presented that the operation may have adverse health effects upon inhabitants of the area who are subjected to the emissions from the plant over a period of time. Further, on January 30 , 1978, staff members of the Weld County Department of Health registered an odor intensity reading of 170 : 1 emanating from the facility; said reading corroborates the testimony of surrounding residents concerning the intensity of the odor and tends to show that the applicant will have difficulty meeting state odor standards with the existing facilities . This Board, however, specifically does not find that compliance with state health standards would result in an operation which meets the standards of Section 3. 3 .E. 2. of the Weld County Zoning Resolution. 3. The Board has received a letter dated April 25 , 1978 from the Town of Hudson, Colorado and a letter dated April 24 , 1978 from the Town of Keenesburg, Colorado, representing official action of the governing bodies of said towns, asking that the dehydration facility permit request as presented be denied by the Board due to the odor presently emitted by the facility. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED by the Board of County Commissioners , Weld County, Colorado, that the applicant, Rolanda Feeds , Inc. , be and hereby is ordered to immediately cease any and all operations of its dehydration facility on the above-described tract of land. The above and foregoing Resolution was, on motion duly -4- and seconded, adopted by the following vote on the 25th day of April, A.D. , 1978 .

Rolanda Feeds, Inc. SUP-335:77: 9 P. C. RECOMMENDATION February 7, 1978 will not adversely affect the surrounding environment. Further, it is the opinion of the Planning Commission that the operation of the dehydration facility as requested will adversely affect the surrounding environment due to the odor emanating from the facility. B. Another policy of the Plan states: "Because water, air and surface pollution are of vital concern to all residents of the county, the state and the nation, it will be the policy to encourage only those developments that can show that they will not contribute to the pollution problem of the area, that they are prepared to either build appropriate control devices at their own expense or will pay sufficient revenues to the existing pollution controlling districts or agencies to insure proper treatment without increasing the cost to the existing users of the system. " It is the opinion of the Planning Commission that the applicant has not demonstrated that the dehydration facility will not contribute to odor pollution. Though the applicant has installed control devices, it is the opinion of the Planning Commission, based on evidence submitted by surrounding property owners and residents of the area, that the applicant has not demonstrated that the pollution control devices have eliminated the negative impacts of odors on surrounding properties. 2. It is the opinion of the Planning Commission that the applicant has not demonstrated that this Special Use Permit for the dehydrating facility: A. Is compatible with the surrounding area, B. Is in harmony with the character of the neighborhood, C. Will not have an adverse effect upon the immediate area, D. Will not adversely affect the future development of the area, E. Is in the best interests of the health, safety and welfare of the inhabitants of the area and the County. Rolanda Feeds, Inc. SUP-335:77 :9 P.C. RECOMMDATION February 7, 1978 This determination is based upon the volume of the public input received at the public meetings and submitted in writing indicating that the venturi scrubber installed as a part of the dehydration facility has not been effective in eliminating the odor which emanates from the facility. Testimony has been submitted by surrounding property owners that the odor has and will continue to have an adverse effect on surrounding property values and is creating a nuisance for surrounding property owners. 3. The Town of Keenesburg has indicated they recommend the Special Use Permit be denied for the following reasons which were enumerated in a letter dated January 11, 1978 : "There have been numerous complaints from concerned citizens regarding the obnoxious odor produced from this operation, also what effect the raw material will have on fly infestation in the summer months. We have been advised that scrubbers have been installed to eliminate the odor, but thus far there has not been any noticible improvement. The Town of Keenesburg is already bordered by a chicken farm, dairy farm, and a hog operation, and we feel one more operation of this nature will certainly not enhance our chances for future growth. Air pollution being a major issue everywhere, should be given top priority in making your decision. We are not anti-free enterprise, but feel the health and welfare of the people should be our major concern. Therefore we implore your careful consideration in approving this Special Use Permit.

It is the opinion of the Planning Commission at this time (prior to the scheduled Planning Commission meeting of January 17, 1978) , that there is inadequate evidence available to fully evaluate the possible adverse impacts to surrounding properties from any odor emission from the dehydrating facility. On November 30, 1977, the Colorado Department of Health, Air Pollution Control Division, issued Rolanda Feeds, Inc. an emissions permit with ten conditions which are designed to control odor and particulate emission from the dried poultry waste facility. Prior to the issuance of that emission permit by the State Health Department, there was considerable input from surrounding property owners concerning the odor issue related to this application.

The Planning Commission recommends the application be tabled until the Planning Commission meeting scheduled for February 7, 1978, to permit the staff to fully evaluate the input received on the odor issue at the January 17, 1978, Planning Commission meeting. • CERTIFICATION OF COPY I , Shirley A.

V. Lord and Associates briefly reviewed the meeting of January 17, 1978, by use of a map presentation . At the last meeting, the Planning Commission was concerned about the details regarding the mining plan and reclamation plan. The map presentation briefly re-capped Best-Way ' s proposal . A supple- mental report was prepared by lord and Associates in answer to con- cerns or the Planning Commission . This report includes test results Planning Commissior inutes 'Page 2 February 7, 1978 on pit noise and ambient conditions and the scrapper operation. The pit noise and ambient conditions are within State limits and the scrapper operation will be controlled by Best-Way so that any noise will not be objectionable to surrounding neighbors.

W,, SWI, Section 22, T2N, R66W LOCATION: 1z miles north and 2 miles east of Ft. Lupton immediately north of Aristocrat Ranchettes SUBJECT: Oil Recycling and Disposal Site APPEARANCE: Stan Rech DISCUSSION: Mr . Rech presented his request for an oil recycling and disposal site, that being having a water truck go to a lease to suck water out of a pit or tank and disposing of the fluid into a pit . The fluid is then pumped into tanks where any oil which may be in the water will be separated. The water then goes into a leach field. According to referrals received back in the office, this could not be allowed because the water exceeds state limits regarding water being placed back into the sursurface. There being no questions at this time, Chuck Cunliffe then read the staff ' s recommendation for tabling the application. John Hall of the Weld County Health Department was then asked to explain the analysis of the sample taken from Mr. Rech' s site, this being 12, 000 PPM. Mr. Hall stated that the test run indicated there was 12, 390 PPM total dissolved solids which is approximately 1/3 saline solution. Discussion followed regarding how this would compare to ordinary surface water. Mr. Suckla said he felt Mr. Rech ' s request would be an asset for those concerned. Mr. Kiefer asked what the procedure would be to assure the City of Ft . Lupton that the ground water would not be contaminated and was told that documentation is all that is needed. Jim I3rannen of Jim' s Water Service indicated he feels there is very much a need for this type of proposal . Planning Commission mutes Page 2 January 17, 1978 MOTION: Be it therefore resolved to table the application pending concerns posed by different referral agencies and the staff and to provide time for the State Engineer and Weld County Health Department to adequately evaluate and comment on the application. Motion by Ben Nix, seconded by Jerry Kiefer. A vote of "aye" by Chuck Carlson, Ben Nix , Harry Ashley, Jerry Kiefer, Percy Hiatt , and Irma White. A vote of "no" was cast by Frank Suckla. Motion carried 6 to 1 . APPLICANT: Best-Way Paving Company etal CASE NUMBER: Z-294 : 77: 12 and SUP-347 : 77 : 21 LEGAL DESCRIPTION: Pt . NE , Section 2, T5N, R66W LOCATION: Northwest of the intersection of 35th Avenue and 4th Street on northwest perimeter of Greeley SUBJECT: Change of Zone from "E" to "A" - Open Cut Mining Permit for Gravel Pit APPEARANCE: Bob Mathias, geologist of R. V. ' Lord and Associates DISCUSSION: Mr. Mathias first presented his program to the Planning Commission by use of a map presentation illustrating exactly where the site is located, which involves 45 acres proposed to be rezoned, in regard to 35th Avenue and 4th Street . Best-Way has been in operation intermittently since 1965 . He then showed a slide present- ation which showed the entrance to the pit looking north across the agricultural land, Friendly Village Mobile Home Park, a church site, Johnson Subdivision and the City subdivisions on the south side of the street . He then explained in great detail the mining plan and different phases of the operation and the reclamation plan for the area. Two public meetings were held by Best-Way for surrounding property owners to explain to them their proposal and allow them to express their opinions in regard to the operation . Items of concern brought out at the meetings were that landowners want the berm removed from the southwest side of the site, they would like to have a privacy fence around the area so that the pit is not in view, they were concerned about their health regarding dust and noise pollution, devaluation of their property, and a secondary access onto 4th Street . Best-Way has agreed to build a 4 ' mound with a 6 ' fence around the area and they have no desire for a secondary access onto 4th Street. Mr. Kiefer asked if Best-Way has had a deed to the property only since March of 1977. Mr. Mathias indicated that this was correct , but that Best-Way had an unrecorded contract with Norman Ruyle since 1971 to sell the property to Best-Way. There being no further questions from the Planning Commission, Chuck Cunliffe read the staff ' s recommendation for tabling the application . Discussion followed regarding the need to use the mineral deposits prior to development . The planning process was explained by Gary Fortner and legally by Kay Norton . Mr. Carlson then called for comments from the audience. At this time Vicki Reed presented to the Planning Commission the original petitions with 167 signatures of landowners opposed to the request which she indicated represents SM or the landowners . She also presented the Planning Commission with a copy or C. R.S . 1 !)7 law Section : d-1-:3051 which covers preservation 4 f Planning Commissioi inutes Page 3 January 17 , 1978 of commercial mineral deposits for extraction. She also sited several items in the Lord plan that were very vague and unclear in her opinion. Linda Vasenius also presented the Planning Commission with petitions of 54 signatures representing landowners opposed to Best-Way ' s proposal . She also pointed out the numerous health hazards that can be associated with gravel pit operations. Tom IIellerich, attorney for Ray Larson, landowner, said that in reviewing the application he feels there is no need for the rezoning and that the existing plant on 35th Avenue is a non-conforming use in the Agricultural zone. He also feels that a 100' wide strips on the west edge of the property carries a covenant which forbids its use for anything but residential development . Other comments by Mr. Hellerich were that he feels the plans by Lord and Associates is very vague and inadequate regarding the control of dust , where the water will come from for the operation, and drainage. Norman Ruyle, however, had no objections to the proposal and feels there would be no dust or noise problem. Several other persons, including Ray Larson, Keith Tanner, Mariana Reed, and Robert Foose also indicated their strong opposition to the proposal . MOTION: Be it therefore resolved to table the recommendation pending a detailed plan for adequately buffering the two land uses, develop- ment of a safety improvements plan, submission of evidence that liability coverage has been obtained of not less than $100, 000, clarification of the proposed use of the access onth 4th Street, method of controlling the drainage between the proposed 4 ' berm and 35th Avenue and between the 4 ' berm and 4th Street . Motion by Jerry Kiefer, seconded by Ben Nix. A unanimous vote of "aye" by Chuck Carlson, Ben Nix, Harry Ashley, Frank Suckla, Jerry Kiefer , Percy Hiatt, and Irma White. Motion carried. ---\ ‘ - � APPLICANT: Rolanda Feeds, Inc. \ , \ � •3� ��% 5 „ � CASE NUMBER: SUP-335: 77: 9 ' LEGAL DESCRIPTION: Pt. E NE , Section 31, T2N, R64W LOCATION: 3 miles east and 1 miles north of Hudson SUBJECT: Chicken Manure Dehydration Facility APPEARANCE: Stanley Stolte, Anthony Zarlengo DISCUSSION: This application was tabled at the June 21 , 1977, Planning Commission meeting pending the receipt of an air pollution permit from State authorities . The permit was granted in November after Rolanda installed a $100, 000 anti-pollution scrubber. Anthony Zarlengo, representing Rolanda Feeds, briefly reviewed the application and indicated the scrubber that was installed has now eliminated odor according to State standards . The final permit was issued by the State Health Department on November 30, 1977, which states that -- Rolanda has passed the visual opacity test and the emissions test. Copper emissions were also of concern and cannot now be detected according to State officials. Stanley Stolte of Rolanda Feeds , Inc . Stated that work was begun to install the scrubber on June 22 and the operation bel;an in mid August . An odor test was Laken by the State IIn' day ol the final permit. . Ron Stow or the Weld County Health Department explained Lu the P1 a n'n i ng Commission the standards set by Planning Commissio inutes Page 4 January 17, 1978 the State regarding the emissions permit in regard to the operation and the opacity test . Discussion followed regarding the frequency of the tests and complaints received. Mr. Stow was asked by Gary Fortner to read the ten conditions required by the State to operate and control the operation. There being no further discussion, Ken McWilliams then read the staff ' s recommendation for tabling. Chairman Carlson then called for audience participation. A great deal of opposition was expressed by George Shaklee, Allen Alter, Bob Fritzler, James Bell , Dorothy Gertner, Mrs. Jim Bridgewater, Bob Denning and Russell Hays. These people all represented many people also in the audience who are opposed to Rolanda' s operation. All indicated the odor was just as bad as before the scrubber was installed to eliminate odor. The odor is still just as offensive and unbearable as it was before the scrubber was installed. Those in the audience opposed to the operation asked the Planning Commission to make a decision soon so they would know what they would have to live with in the future. Chairman Carlson asked if there were any chemicals that could be used to eliminate the odor. Ron Stow indicated that there were other ways, but Rolanda chose the scrubber. MOTION: Be it therefore resolved to table the application with a decision to be made on February 7, 1978. Motion by Harry Ashley, seconded by Jerry Kiefer. A vote of "aye" by Chuck Carlson, Ben Nix, Harry Ashley, Frank Suckla, Jerry Kiefer, Percy Hiatt , and Irma White. Motion carried. There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned.

It is the opinion of the Department of Planning Services staff that this Special Use Permit request for a dehydration facility_ at the proposed location is not in compliance with the Weld County Comprehensive Plan for the following reasons : A. One of the policies in the Weld County Comprehensive Plan states : "The expansion and development of agri-business and agriculturally oriented industry will be encouraged provided these enterprises do not adversely affect the total economy or environment . " It is the opinion of the Department of Planning Services staff, based on evidence submitted by surrounding property•'owners and residents of the area, that the applicant has not demonstrated that this enterprise will not adversely affect the surrounding environment . Further, it is the opinion of the Department of Planning Services staff that the operation of the dehydration facility as requested will adversely affect the surrounding environment due to the odor emanating from the facility. B. Another policy of the Plan states : "Because water, air and surface pollution are of vital concern to all residents of the county, the state and the nation, it will be the policy to encourage only those development that can show that they will not con- tribute to the pollution problem of the area, that they are prepared to either build appropriate control devices at their own expense or will pay sufficient revenues to the existing pollution controlling districts or agencies to insure proper treatment without increasing the cost to the existing users of the system. " Rolanda Feeds, Inc. SUP-335 : 77: 9 STAFF RECOMMENDATION February 7, 1978 It is the opinion of the Department of Planning Services staff that the applicant has not demonstrated that the dehydration facility will not contribute to odor pollution. Though the applicant has installed control devices, it is the opinion of the Department of Planning Services staff, based on evidence submitted by surrounding property owners and residents of the area, that the applicant has not demonstrated that the pollution control devices have eliminated the negative impacts of odors on surrounding properties. 2. It is the opinion of the Department of Planning Services staff that the applicant has not demonstrated that this Special Use Permit for the dehydrating facility: A. Is compatible with the surrounding area, B. Is in harmony with the character of the neighborhood, C. Will not have an adverse effect upon the immediate area, D. Will not adversely affect the future development of the area, E. Is in the best interests of the health, safety and welfare of the inhabitants of the area and the County. This determination is based upon the volume of the public input received at the public meetings and submitted in writing indicating that the venturi scrubber installed as a part of the dehydration facility has not been effective in eliminating the odor which emanates from the facility. Testimony has been submitted by surrounding property owners that the odor has and will continue to have an adverse effect on surrounding property values and is creating a nuisance for surrounding property owners. 3. The Town of Keenesburg has indicated they recommend the Special Use Permit be denied for the following reasons which were enumerated in a letter dated January 11, 1978 : "There have been numerous complaints from concerned citizens regarding the obnoxious odor produced from this operation, also what effect the raw material will have on fly infestation in the summer months. We have been advised that scrubber have been installed to eliminate the odor, but thus far there has not been any noticible improvement. The Town of Keenesburg is already bordered by a chicken farm, dairy farm, and a hog operation, and we feel one more operation of this nature will certainly not enhance our chances for future growth. Rolanda Feeds, Inc. SUP-335: 77: 9 STAFF RECOMMENDATION February 7, 1978 Air pollution being a major issue everywhere, should be given top priority in making your decision. We are not anti-free enterprise, but feel the health and welfare of the people should be our major concern. Therefore we implore your careful consideration in approving this Special Use Permit. " Date : Jan'-ary 17, 1978 r 1 CASE NUMBER: SUP-335: 77: 9 NAME: Rolanda Feeds, Inc. REQUEST: Chicken Manure Dehydration Facility LEGAL DESCRIPTION: Pt . E3--. NE , Section 1, T2N, R64W LOCATION: 3 miles east and l miles north of Hudson THE DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING SERVICES STAFF RECOMMENDS THAT THIS REQUEST BE tabled FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS : 1. It is the opinion of the Department of Planning Services staff at this time (prior to the schuled Planning Commission meeting of January 17, 1978) , that there is inadequate evidence available to fully evalute the possible adverse impacts to surrounding properties from any odor emission from the dehydrating facility. On November 30, 1977, the Colorado Department of Health, Air Pollution Control Division, issued Rolanda Feeds , Inc. an emissions permit with ten conditions which are designed to control odor and particulate emission from the dried poultry waste facility. Prior to the issuance of that emission permit by the State Health Department , there was considerable input from surrounding property owners concerning the odor issue related to this application. It is the opinion of the Department of Planning Services staff that we have not received enough input concerning the effectiveness of the facilities in controlling odor emissions from the dehydrating process, since the installation of the venture scrubber and associated cyclonic mist eliminator by Rolanda Feeds, Inc. and the issuance of the emission permit by the State Health Department . The Department of Planning Services staff recommends the application be tabled until the Planning Commission meeting scheduled for February 7, 1978, to permit the staff to fully evaluate the input received on the odor issue at the January 17, 1978, Planning Commission meeting. - ' 1 OIL , June 21, 1977 CASE NUMBER: SUP-335:77: 9 LOCATION: 3 miles east and 11 mile north of Hudson LEGAL DESCRIPTION: Pt. NE4 , Sec. 31 , T2N, R64W REQUEST: Dehydration Facility NAME: Roland Feeds, Inc. THE WELD COUNTY PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF RECOMMENDS THAT THIS REQUEST BE tabled FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS: 1. The Weld County Health Department has indicated the applicant has filed for an air pollution emissinn permit (No. C-11 , 328) for the Economy single-pass drier. On June 14, 1977, the Weld County Health Department monitored the facility for particulate emissions and found the facility exceeded the 20% opacity level permitted under State Health Regulations. Therefore, it is the recommendation of the Planning Commission staff that this application for a Special Use Permit be tabled until the applicant has secured approval from the Weld County Health Department and the Air Quality Control Commission (State Health Department) has issued the air pollution emission permit for Economy single-pass drier. The Planning Commission staff recommends that the applicant be permitted to operate either of the two driers while this Special Use Perm ' application is pending, but only under the condition that when the drier or driers are operating they must comply with Weld County and State Health Standards and Regulations. The Planning Commission staff further recommends that the Weld County Health Department continue their monitoring program for the facility to assure compliance with Weld County and State Health Standards and Regulations. I . e J ROBERT COLLIER, M.D. Professional Corporation Wadsworth Medical Arts Building 4045 Wadsworth Boulevard Wheat Ridge,Colorado 80033 —0-- Telephone 424-5515 April 25, 1978 Weld County Board of Commissioners Gentlemen: Unfortunately, numerous committments prevent my attendance at the hearing this evening. I would like to submit the following information for your consideration. Mrs. Linda Rossi has been my patient since April, 1976, for multiple allergic problems. I have treated her mother, Mrs. Norma Cooper since May, 1975, for similar problems. Mrs. Rossi is severely hypersensitive to a number of factors, including air-borne pollutants. She had to discontinue a very productive Beauty-Shop business because of intolerance to various fumes which result from beautician operations. When she moved out of the major metropolitan pollution area in May, 1977, her symptoms were markedly improved. However, when the Rolanda Feed Farm began production she noticed the aggravation of her symptoms of tightness in chest, cough, nausea and breathlessness whenever the prevailing winds brought the pollution from the plant over her home. These symptoms would persist until the plant shut down or the wind shifted. . Finally, in an attempt to provide a method to relieve her symptoms, in February, 1978, I supplied the Rossi family with an airpump extracting device and asked them to use it for a total of 24 hours during which the pollution from the plant was evident at her home. The device is an air pump which sucks air through a series of three flasks containing 50% glycerine, 0.4% phenol and 0.4% sodium bicarbonate, in water. The device was placed out-doors in the yard on several days in order to achieve a total of 24 hours of operation. When returned to me, the solution which was previously clear was now a strong amber color. The material has been given to the Colorado Department of Health, but I am not aware of the results of analysis. This solution was then filtered for purification, made into several dilutions and used as a test material. Mrs. Rossi demonstrated a strong reaction in a testing technique whereby she was unaware of the strength of the dilution used nor whether it contained any of the extracted material. Mrs. Cooper, who lives in Hudson, and farther from the plant, also has similar symptoms when exposed to the odors. Testing with the same material also caused aggravation of symptoms. Others not normally exposed to the fumes show no effect from the extract. Weld County Board of Commissioners Page 2 In my professional opinion, the effluent pollution of this plant is definitely determental to the health of these two individuals, and represents a potential hazard to anyone who might be repeatedly exposed to it.

The applicant has stated that the Planning Commission received and considered evidence after it had officially closed its hearing on Rolanda Feeds . Specifically , the applicant states that the Planning Commission considered a Weld County Health Department report of an alleged air pollution violation by the applicant and an action by the Air Pollution Control Division of the Colorado Department of Health revoking the applicant ' s omission permit and relied on these factors in making its decision on February 7 , 1978 . In addition , the applicant states that the Planning Commission improperly relied on a letter submitted from the town of Keenesburg , which the applicant states was not an official action of the town of Keenesburg . I now state without reservation that the Planning Commission did not at any time after the close of evidence in this special use permit application consider any evidence which may have arisen after our hearings on the matter and prior to our decision . We were advised by our counsel as to what evidence was properly before us and at no time did the Commission go outside of the record for any basis for its decision .

Said property shall include one (1) small farm house, fence and corrals, and shall include 100' X 100' lot upon which Rolanda Feeds, Incorporated built the new office building, laying South of the driveway which is South of the small farm house. In addition to the 100' X 100' tract, the survey shall include all lands North of the South border of the existing North driveway, and lands East of the West border of that part of the landing strip that is North of the South line of the existing driveway or road described above. Said Westerly line of the premises shall be located on the West border of the landing strip and shall extend North all the way to Road 16, per agreement entered into on the 18th day of April, 1977, between Medsker and Overton Farm Venture, as Seller, and Rolanda Feeds, Incorporated and/or Lloyd L. Land, Stanley L. Stole, and Roland L. Nuss, as Purchaser. Note Survey by Jerry NcRae and Robert Short Engineering. I Page 2 of 5 The existing structures and facilities are as mentioned, cne (1) small farm house, fence and corrals included, the new office building 25' X 30', one (1) storage building 40' X 80' used to store the wet manure inside, one (1) airplane hangar 28' X 38' which is retained by agreement with Lloyd Land and ?Iedsker and Overton Farm Venture, one (1) Beard Direct— Fired Rotary Dryer with attached Cyclone Dust Collector Control, which at the present is partially covered by said storage building, later to be eliminated upon completion of the new Dryer, one (1) Economy Single— Pass Dryer with attached Cyclone Dust Collector Control in the process of being assembled for future use, one (1) fuel tank 16' X 8' 6,000 gallon capacity, one (1) fuel tank 15' X 7' 5,500 gallon capacity, and one (1) 12' bulk feed tank 2,190 bushel, steel sub structure farbricated on site for storage. The proposed structures and facilities are a storage building 40' X 60' to be erected over the Economy Single—Pass Dryer and used for storage of the wet manure to prevent any stockpiles and store all manure for company use inside the building. Four (4) more storage tanks, bushel, capacity unknown at the present time. Also, asphalting an 18' width driveway and parking area to the east of the office building and south of the storage building. The remaining area and property which will be all open space will be used for farming, pasture, and dryland. The operation was designated for the purpose of recycling dried poultry waste by the process of dehydration, and dehydrating sugar beet tops for livestock feed. The poultry waste is being obtained from the Hudson Gates Cyclo and Brighton Gates Cyclo. From Hudson Gates Cyclo approximately 2,500 Ton of manure per year is spread as fertilizer on the Lloyd Jana Farm located an Highway 52 at Road 49 then South on 49 to the farm and approximately 5,800 Ton of manure per year is spread as fertilizer on Lloyd Jands 320 acre farm located one mile East of Hudson on Highway 52. From Brighton Gates Cyclo approximately 6,000 Ton of manure per year is being spread as fertilizer on the Nedsker and Overton Farm Venture's 700 acre farm being farmed by Lloyd Land and located, on Road 51 adjoining the described property belonging to Rolanda Feeds Incorporated. The poultry waste is being stockpiled on the individual farm locations for fertilizer use. The remaining tonnage of approximately 3,580 Ton is being dried and dehydrated by Rolanda Feeds Incorporated at the described property. The tonnage will fluctuate depending on the supply of manure on hand. All manure picked up at Boulder Valley is Page 3 of 5 used at Roland Nuss's farm as fertilizer. The proposed Sugar Beet Tops for future dehydrating are grown on the farms mentioned, farmed and owned, by Lloyd Land. The Sugar Beet Tops will be used for livestock feed as well. The existing operation will be maintained on a two (2) shift a day, five (5) day work week with the first shift beginning at 8:00 A.N. and ending at 4:00 P.N. and the second shift beginning at 4:oo P.M. and ending at 12:00 midnight. The dehydrator requires two (2) men on each shift for operation. In addition, Rolanda Feeds Incorporated employs a maintenance man for minor repairs, painting and cleaning, a parttime man for extra help and two drivers for hauling the manure to the dehydrator and to Lloyd Land's farm. The transaction from the raw product to the finished product is obtained by the following process: (1) transportation—a 1976 Ford truck F700, 361 V8 5 spd, GVU 24,0001bs. travels from Rolanda Feeds at 6509 Weld County Road 51 , one and a half miles South to Highway 52 :.hen West to Hudson, West of Hudson one and a half miles North to Hudson Gates Cyclo. At this point the truck is loaded with a 7sTon load of poultry waste and the return route from Hudson Gates Cyclo would be South one and a half miles to Hudson on Highway 52, then two miles East of Hudson on Highway 52 to Road 51 , North one and a half miles to the office or South of Hudson Gates Cyclo one and a half mile to Hudson East on Highway 52 one mile to the 320 acre farm belonging to Lloyd Land or South of Hudson Gates Cyclo on Highway 52 two miles to Hudson East on Highway 52 to Road 49, South on Road 49 to the 'rand Farm, where the raw material will be used on the farms for fertilizer. (2) Transportation— a 1977 Ford truck LT8000 Cab Chassis GVU 50,0001bs. traveling from Rolanda Feeds at 6509 Weld County Road 51 , one and a half miles South to Highway 52, West to 1-76 to Highway 7, then one mile West of Brighton turn South four miles to Brighton Gates Cyclo. There the truck is loaded with a 12 Ton load and the return route is North four miles to Page 4 of 5 Brighton on Highway 7 to I-76 then North on 1-76 to Highway 52, then East on Highway 52 two miles to Road 51 then one and a half miles North to Rolanda Feeds, Incorporated and/or to the Medsker and Overton Farm Venture 700 acre farm, farmed by Lloyd Land and adjoining the described property owned by Rolanda Feeds, Incorporated, where the manure will be spread for fertilizer. The two trucks haul approximately two (2) loads daily five days a week to Rolanda Feeds, Incorporated. (3) The poultry waste is unloaded by said vehicles and the wet manure is stored in the existing storage building and will be stored in the proposed storage building. The manure is then loaded into the existing Beard Direct-Fired Rotary drier with attached Cyclone Dust Collector Control for dehydration at o.75 Ton per hour. The wet manure before dehydration will weigh an estimate of 52.08 lbs. per cubic foot and after dehydration the manure will weigh an estimate of 26.04 lbs. per cubic foot. Following the dehydration process the finished product is either stored in the bulk feed tank or trucked to the Ralston Purina Company in Irondale, traveling from Rolanda Feeds, incorporated, 6509 1Jeld County Road. 51 one and a half miles South to Highway 52 then two miles West to Interstate 76 South to 9200 East 90th Avenue, or to the farms owned by Roland L.

Stolte, one and a half miles South of Rolanda Feeds, Incorporated on Road 51 to Highway 52 West to Interstate 76 South to County Line Road, for the purpose of livestock feed. The existing Beard Direct—Fired Rotary drier with attached Cyclone Dust Collector Control is presently being operated under Air Pollution Control Division, Permit No. C11 ,169, 1.97 Tpy Av Ens, emission rate of particulate matter not more than 3.0 lbs per hour nor greater than 20% equivalent opacity. The above mentioned drier will be eliminated upon assembly completion of the modern 10' X 42' Economy Single—Pass drier with attached Cyclone Dust Collector Control, which will be operated under Air Pollution Control Division • Page 5 of 5 Permit No. C11,328, 1.19 Tpy Av Ems, emission rate of particulate matter not more than. 8.5 lbs per hour nor greater than 20;5 equivalent opacity and dehydration at approximately 2.25 Ton per hour. Upon complete installation of the Economy drier the work week should be reduced to a two (2) shift per day three (3) day a week work ?period. The only supply of water is for the office use only as the dehydration process requires no water supply. Please note attached copy of the well permit, and attached survey indicates method for disposal of sewage. r- 'U PS i 331978 April 21 , 1978 °z — Board of County Commissioners Weld County Centennial Center 915 Tenth Street Greeley, Colorado 80631 Re: Application for a Special Use Permit for Rolanda Feeds Incorporated Gentlemen: As a Representative of the Town of Keenesburg, a letter dated January 11 , 1978 was issued by myself indicating a recommendation of denial of an application for a Special Use Permit by Rolanda Feeds Incorporated, for the following reasons: "There were numerous complaints from concerned citizens regarding odor produced from this operation, also what effect the raw material will have on fly infestation in the summer months." As of this date, I have made a personal inspection of the processing plant and as a result of this inspection I would like to make a second recommendation and inform the County Commissioners of my findings, which are as follows: "A Secondary Scrubber has been installed and at the time I visited the plant the scrubber was in the final stages of completion. The odor I found was a trace in comparison to prior odors and remained on the premises. The Secondary Scrubber appears to be eliminating the odor to a minimum, but I would recommend a satisfactory time limit be set upon completion of the scrubber system to determine rather or not the odor has been eliminated. The owners assured there would be no stockpiles of manure on the premises, other than the manure to be processed within a forty—eight (48) hour period. Also, the operation has been spraying for flies for the past two weeks and will continue to spray on a daily basis."

Gentlemen: Enclosed is Amended Objection to Recommendation of Planning Commission. In my letter of March 16 , 1978 , I requested that the Objection be scheduled for hearing prior to the hearing for Special Use Permit. The only notice which was forwarded to me states that April 25 , has been scheduled for the hearing on Special Use Permit. It is our position that the Objection to the Recommendation of the Planning Commission should be resolved before a hearing on the Special Use Permit can be held. And it should be noted that the Planning Commission' s decision was served upon the Applicant after the scheduling of the April 25 hearing date on Special Use Permit. After receiving the Planning Commis - sion 's decision and the additional information which was subsequently forwarded to me by the Planning Commission, it was necessary to amend the Objection as indicated in the enclosed Amended Objection .

She emphatically denies your accusations that she has instructed her students to write a theme on how bad the Rolanda Feeds plant smells. She teaches music, not English. She has never given a writing assignment concerning your client and has never advised any of her students that any themes would be published. As with any other citizen, she has the right to communicate her own personal views to the general public. She was exercising that right when she wrote her letter to the Keenesburg Valley Sun. Obviously, your client is greatly concerned by the residents' outrage at the foul odors emitting from the plant. However, your heavy handed attempt to intimidate Ms. Gnojek is totally unwarranted and uncalled for. She demands a retraction of your false accusations. Very truly yours, • Dennis E.

Inc. , my Client Gentlemen: Please be advised that the undersigned is the attorney for Rolanda Feeds , Inc . , which operates a dehydrating plant near Hudson, Colorado, and approximately four miles west of the public elementary school at Keenesburg, Colorado. My client has engages engineers and has invested considerable capital in controlling emissions and odors from its plant and in complying with state pollution regulations . The plant is operating free of ommissions and odors . Certain private interests in the area have mounted a movement to prevail upon county authorities to shut down the plant, all without cause or justification on the pretext that the plant emits an odor. The issues raised by the above group have brought about proceed- ings before the Weld County Commissioners and other litigation; and said matters are now pending. One of the teachers in the public school at Keenesburg, Colo- rado, Vickie Gnojeck, is apparently a part of the above move- ment to shut down my client' s plant and has written a letter to the editor of The Keenesburg Valley Sun, in opposition to the Rolanda plant. See copy enclosed. W- are now advised that Mrs. Gnojeck has instructed her third grade students to write a theme , as part of a class assignment, 'on a subject entitled, "How Bad the Rolanda Plant Smells" , or si .:i;ar title. We are also advised that Mrs . Gnojeck advised her students that the themes bearing the highest grades will L_3 published in The Greeley Tribune. Rolanda has a hearing / , vcvAib , 2mac - �V�-U//S' - 2 - scheduled before the Board of County Commissioners of Weld County in Greeley toward the end of April. The timing of the above maneuver of Mrs . Gnojeck is obvious. In an agricultural area such as surrounds the school at Keenes- burg there are various agricultural activities which produce odor, one of which is a chicken farm which keeps over 100, 000 chickens a distance of less than a fourth of a mile from the public elementary school at Keenesburg. Said farm emits an obvious odor. Mrs . Gnojeck apparently suggests to her third grade students that any odor they might smell eminates from the Rolanda Plant which is four miles distance from the school. Since any disputes or issues concerning alleged odor from the Rolanda Plant are now the subject of County Commission hearing or litigation we feel that an aLtemp by Mrs. Gnojeck to in- fluence the outcome of said proceedings is improper. Obviously published themes written by third grade students in opposition to the Rolanda Plant would be beneficial to the private interests involved in the attempt to shut down the plant. Although Mrs . Gnojeck is entitled to voice any personal opinions that she may choose in matters of community interest or private matters , we take the position that it is improper for her to use her third grade students as a vehicle to amplify her per- sonal opinions or concerns . Should Mrs . Gnojeck persist in her aforementioned plan to publish her students ' themes my client will file a formal complaint with your Commission. Please advise Mrs . Gnojeck or take such other action as you deem proper under the circumstances. Ver truly yours , ANTHONY V.6ARLZNIGO, 13Z .

Shaklee 7627 Weld County Road 49 Hudson, Colorado 80642 Dear Mr. Shaklee: Regarding your letter of August 17, 1977, as to why Rolanda Feeds is continuing to operate without a Special Use Permit. When the County determined that a Special Use Permit would be required for this operation, the operator of Rolanda immediately began the process to bring themselves into compliance with those zoning regulations. Consequently, no attempt was made to obtain a cease and desist order. To suspend operations, then and now, would require a court ruling to that effect. If the Board of County Commissioners were to institute such court action prior to the completion of the Special Use Permit proceedings, our legal advisors have counseled us that the operator may well have justification for challenging any subsequent denial of a Special Use Permit on the grounds of prejudice. In land use matters, the Board of County Commissioners is a quasi-judicial body. Should the Board decide, after due process, to deny the Special Use Permit, we are empowered to enforce that decision. However, we do not have the power of enforcement prior to completion of due process. Not only is Rolanda Feeds subject to the same zoning regulations as any homeowner or any other individual in a permit situation, but Rolanda must also be accorded the same due process in applying for a permit after the fact as these other individuals would be. If a homeowner had already begun construction on a house without obtaining a required permit, that homeowner would not be required to tear down the house until obtaining the permit. If an owner A S Mr. Shaklee: 8/25/77 Page Two of a mobile home had moved that home onto property which required a Special Use Permit without first obtaining that permit, the county would not require the owner to remove the home until receiving the permit, but would allow the home to remain until the permit process was completed. Rolanda is being accorded that same due process. The Commissioners appreciate your continuing concerns in this matter and will give them due consideration at the time the decision is lnade.

The matter is presently before the Planning Commission and has been tabled until a review can be completed by the State Health Department. Members of the Planning staff, Planning Commission, and a representative of the Board of County Commissioners are to meet with officials of the state and local health departments on August 18th to determine the time frame within which the Health Department will release its findings concerning Rolanda Feeds. According to state statutes and county regulations, matters of this nature must go through standardized procedures. When the Weld County Planning Commission makes its determination concerning the Special Use Permit for Rolanda Feeds, the matter will come before the Board of County Commissioners. At that time, the Board of Commissioners will take under consideration your concerns and the petitions which you have filed with us. I am sorry that more immediate attention to your concerns cannot be given, but the Board believes that it is extremely necessary to comply with the proper procedures in such cases. Please be assured that the Board of County Commissioners is aware of the continuing effects of this operation on the residents in the area, and that we will take those concerns into account in reaching a decision in the matter when the question comes before the Board, $inc�rely, ne K. Steinmark, Chairperson Board of Weld County Commissioners JKS/clb June 28 , 1977 The County Council of Weld Co . Greeley , Colorado Subject: Request For Investigat _on of Planning Commission and Planning Staff Allegations : 1 . Many of the requests for zoning chancre nr for special use permits recommended for approval_ by Planning Staff and Planning Commission are inimical to the best interests of Weld County and to the people in the affected neighborhoods . This is evidenced by the apparent disregard of damage to the environment and social structure in favor of the increased tax base. 2 . In theory , the Planning Staff is subiect to and supervised by the Planning Commission. This theory is apparently belied when one reviews the consistancv and approval of the Planning Staff recommendations recently witnessed at a - Public Hearing June 21 , 1977 t reference Rolanda Feeds without regard to spoken criticism by members of the Board. 3 . Specifically , the Planning Staff has wrongfully recommended that Rolanda Feed Co. , who has operated a commercial feed manufacturing facility in an agri- cultural zone without legal sanction could continue under a snecia_l use perment. To accomplish this , we now have county officials advising as to the means one would use to gain access to legality , after the fact , and circumvent more stringent requirements for rezoning . This might well be disapproved thus eliminating a horrible odor . 4. With our form of government based on checks and balances , we are now requesting this established pro- endure . Our desire is that the County Council investi- gate this matter to a satisfactory conclusion . This will hopefully eliminate the unnecessary hardships that the operation of this facility would cause to countless residents , tourists and property values alike . -2- Conclusions : We are concerned that in this situation as well as many others in our County Government- , the hired technocrats have complete dominance .

Our department has still received many complaints about the odorous emissions since the issuance of the emission permit to Rolanda. We believe that the facility cannot continuously meet the requirements of the Air Pollution Control Commission's Regulation No. 2. Thank you for your consideration in this important matter.

The attached notes are written from the field report. This violation was recorded between 8:00 and 9 :00 PM and substantiates the complaints of neighbors who have alleged that recent Rolanda operations have been mostly at night. Our representatives, Mr. Hall & Mr. Stow, were refused entry to the plant area following detection of the violation. This act is in itself illegal. Our staff was also subject to telephone verbal abuse by one of the owners.

Hall: Yes. Land: Get a pencil and piece of paper. I want you to write down - some things. - Hall: All right, go ahead with what you want to tell me. Land: First of all, the plant wasn' t even running tonight. I have witnesses that will confirm this. Secondly, the wind was not - southeasterly as you reported but was 188° - 192°. I have - a wind-sock and this is how I know. Hall: Well Lloyd, you're entitled to your side of the story, but I happen to believe differently. Land: Those guys at :he plant were steam cleaning. What you were smelling was a pile of burning chicken manure. How dumb can you be? Hall: Sure Lloyd. - Land: You guys left my gate open when you came on my property to make your inspection. I followed your tracks. - Hall: We did not enter your property at the gate you are referring to. We turned around, but never got out of the truck. I have no idea who left your gate open. Land: Why didn't you guys wait around until I could get down there? Hall: Lloyd, we were under no obligation to wait for you to arrive on the scene. Your man refused us entry and that's that. Land: I mean, how (expletive deleted) dumb can-you guys be? You know you and these people down here are out to close me down. (Shaklee et al. ) - Hall: That's not the case, we're lust trying to do our job. A time of name calling and character smears ensued with Land finally hanging up. John G.

Emission Permit ( ith conditions) by Colorado Department of Health, Air Pollution Control Division Attached you will fird the Emission Permit issued to Rolanda Feeds Inc. as of November 30. P state decision was scheduled for November following the stack tests required under state permit procedure. Ten conditions are attached which will be monitored by the Colorado Department of Health staff and/or our staff. We believe the observance of these conditions will require a stricter operation and members of our staff and/or state staff will be able to determine whether they are complying with the conditions . It is interesting to note that under condition No. 7A where they had been using this compound (commercially known as Ozine) they were able to pass the odor test on the same day their stack tests were conducted. Our previous test indicating the violation of the odor regulation of the APCC No. 2 was probably at a time when they were not using chemically treated scrubber feed water. If the Commissioners desire, members of our staff would be pleased to answer any questions and explain the impact of the ten requirements. Is it possible for the Planning Commission and/or County Commissioners to attach these or similar conditions to a zoning permit?

Stow, Weld County Health Department and asked that we check it out. 4:00 p.m. Harry Collier and Ron Stow, WCHD left to Mrs. Eichthaler's 4:35 p.m. At I-76 and Kersey Road, we observed that Ro-Landa had just begun operating, had been shut off. Wind out of approx. ENE. 4:45 p.m. At Mrs. Eichthaler's. She stated that when she got home at 3:45 her house stunk from the odor from Ro-Landa. Harry and Ron talked with her for approx. 15 minutes. Wind appeared to be ENE or E. 5:00 p.m. lie drove through Hudson, found no odors there. 5: 12 p.m. On Frontage Road along I-76 at a point 0.8 miles from the Kersey Road junction. We found a 31 :1 D/T chicken manure odors using the Darneby-Cheney Scentometer #05212, an odor characteristic of the Ro-Landa operation. We then drove into Keenesburg. 5:35 p.m. Returned to the exact spot as the previous reading, could not detect an odor. The wind appeared to have shifted to a more NE direction. Drove underneath railroad tracks to County Road 49, and proceeded south. 5:46 p.m. Found 170:1 D/T at 5:45 at first bend in County Road 49 going south. Odor was chicken manure being dried, slight burning smell to manure. Wind was out of ENE appox. 15 mph. Odor plume appox. 75 ft. wide. Temperature, Cold (300). Then proceeded to Colorado Hwy. 52, East to County Road 51 North along 51 . Proceeded N. to County Road 16, then West alone 16 to Road 49. Road 49 South to point of odor. Found no other odors along this circuit. 6:06 p.m. Returned to first bend in County Road 49. Again, found odors of 170:1 D/T. Same odor as before. 1 Page 2 Ro-Landa Observati,11 6:15 p.m. Drove up to plant from County Road 51 . Found a driver walking out and he signed my odorous emission test results. His name was Bryan Benton. appox. 8:00 p.m. Les Stolte called Harry Collier. Lloyd Land also called Harry. Stolte suggested that we had not actually smelled Ro-Landa and asked that we return this evening. Land also asked Harry to return that evening. Then Land became very abusive, calling Harry a lying SOB (used words) . Harry hung up on him. November 17, 1977 5:30 p.m. Lloyd Land called Ron Stow, wanted to meet with Ron at 8:00 - 8:30 that day, Ron said no, 10:00 - 10:30. 9:00 p.m. Lloyd Land called Ron to verify meeting at 10:15 - 10:30 10:35 p.m. Ron Stow and Ton Smith, Weld County Health Dept. , visited Ro-Landa. Present: Les Stolte and Lloyd Land. Stolte and Land vehemently denied that Ro-Landa was in violation. They said: 1 . Wind was 90°, therefore Ron couldn't have gotten them. 2. Grazing sheep were between Ror and the plant. 3. L. Land also spreading cow and chicken manure on his fields. In the course of the discussion, Lloyd Land also called Ron Stow a lying SOB (used words) and said that he'd better straighten out. Both Stolte and Land were very excited and yelling, saying that it was a put-up job and harrassment or a mistake and that L. Land was the one making the odors on his land. They then showed Stow and Smith where the sheep were grazing and where the manure was being spread. The manure spread on the fields did not smell the same as the odor found the previous night. Odors from the previous night were detected when the plume for dehydrating swung around to our direction. Wind was from a ESE/ENE direction. Mr. Stolte wanted Stow to tear up the odor readings and not tell the State. He stated that he had already called his attorney, Zarlenao, a judge in Wheatridge. He said Zarlenao had already talked with a Greeley judge about this matter. ,y�, -- 1 Sk COLORADO DEPARTMENT OF HEAL • AIR POLLUTION CONTROL DIVISION IDO ANALYTICAL REPORT OF V-I-StBt-EEMIsSION VIOLATION COMPANY R v - L LNG`R wee as DATE << ' 1('77 ADDRESS OF SOURCE 62 5oGt W-eId- 63 IcI 5 s1. ti w-dd 63 — (a(AJytQQ, City Street County AQCR 4S)c STACK NAME -TG . - v _N-I-UR-\ ScQoRl3EQ.

Grlcresl William Auberle, Director Air Pollution Control Division Colorado Department of Health 4210 E. 11th Avenue Denver, CO 80220 Dear Mr. Auberle: We, as well as the Weld County Commissioners , are concerned about the Rolanda Feeds Inc. , located south of I-76 between Hudson and Keenesburg. We are concerned that, according to our information, the engineers in that section are not addressing the odor problem in their emission permit procedure. Stack tests are scheduled for this month. Our staff recently met with the County Commissioners and members of the County Planning Commission staff and there is a great concern whether a special use permit will be issued by the County. In the meantime, complaints are legion from surrounding rural and even urban areas and they relate to the odor problem. The purpose of this letter is to ask that the odor problem be addressed in the permit procedure and that we be consulted before any decision is made about issuing such permit. Thank you.

Stolte Ro-Landa Feeds, Inc. 6509 Weld County Rd. 51 Keenesburg, CO 80643 Dear Sir: The Rolanda Feeds , Inc. chicken manure dehydrating facility, located at 6509 Weld County Road 41 , is required to meet two Air Pollution Control Commission Regulations with regard to plant emissions. I have enclosed copies of these applicable regulations. Regulation No. 1 , deals with the 20% visible emission limitation and Regulation No. 2, with odors. Also, the facility has two air pollution emission permits. The first, No. C-11 ,169 issued August 10, 1976, is for the Beard direct-fired rotary drier with cyclone control device. Final approval has not been made for this drier because of dust emissions from unenclosed portions of the drier and hammermill . The Beard drier is to be taken down when the new Economy drier becomes operational . The second permit No. C-11 ,328 issued March 25, 1977, is for the Economy single-pass drier with cyclone control device. Within 180 days of drier start-up, Rolanda is required to perform stack testing from the Economy drier. Neither drier has any odor control devices. Cyclones are installed to remove particulate matter from the airstream. However, in odor emission testing done by the Weld County Health Department, no odors in excess of 7:1 dilution to threshold have been found on those dates indicated on the attached 1977 enforcement activities listing. Also, to minimize odor emissions, Mr. Stolte assured me that the present manure stockpiles will be eliminated and that once the Economy drier becomes functional , manure trucked onto the plant site will be immediately processed. The road into the facility and the area around the plant itself is to be paved and this will help to reduce fugitive dust emissions from manure hauler traffic. If you have any questions , please contact our office immediately. Yours truly, hn G. Hall , Acting Director Ronald K. S w, R.P.S.

No person shall emit or cause to be emitted into the atmosphere, from any air contamination source of emission whatsoever, any air contaminant which is of such a shade or density as to obscure an observer's vision to a degree I , in excess of 20% opacity. Instrumentation which results in equivalent readings may be used in specific installations if approved in advance by the Air Pollution Control Division. Subsection 2.a. amended September 4, 1975, effective December 17, 1975. 2. Exceptions: a. No person shall emit or cause to be emitted into the atmosphere from any alfalfa dehydration plant or process unit associated therewith, any air contaminant which is of such a shade or density so as to obscure an observer's vision to a degree in excess of 40% opacity. This emission standard for alfalfa dehydration plants shall be in effect until January 1, 1985 for all existing alfalfa dehydration plants as defined in Section II.B of Regulation No. 5; thereafter, the 20% opacity limitation provided in Section I.A of Regulation No. 1 shall apply to emissions from alfalfa dehydration plants. New alfalfa dehydration plants, as defined in Section II.C of Regulation No. 5, shall not be subject to the provisions of Regulation No. 5, but must comply with Section I.A of Regulation No. 1. b. No person shall emit or cause to be emitted into the atmosphere from any pilot plant and experimental operation any air contaminant for a period or periods aggregating more than three minutes in any 60 consecutive minutes which is of such a shade or density as to obscure an observer's vision to a degree in excess of 40% opacity. This emission standard for pilot plants and experimental operations shall be in effect for a period not to exceed 180 operating days, cumulative total, from the date such operations commence; thereafter, the 20% opacity limitation provided in Part I Section A of these regulations shall apply to emissions from pilot plants and experimental operations. 1.1 COLORADO DEPARTMENT HEALTH Air Pollution Control Commission 4210 East 11th Avenue Denver, Colorado 80220 Adopted : March 11, 1971 Effective Date: April 23, 1971 REGULATION 2 ODOR EMISSION REGULATIONS Pursuant to Section 66-31-8(2) (e) of the Colorado Air Pollution Control Act of 1970, the following Emission Regulations are issued: A. No person, wherever located, shall cause or allow the emission of odorous air contaminants from any single source such as to result in detectable odors which are measured in excess of the following limits: I (1) For areas used predominantly for residential or commercial purposej]it is a violation if odors are detected after the odorous air has been diluted with seven (7) or more volumes .' of odor free air. (2) In all other land use areas, it is a violation if odors are detected after the odorous air has been diluted with fifteen (15) or more volumes of odor free air. (3) (a) When the scurce is a manufacturing process or agricultural operation, no violation of Subsections (1) and (2) shall be cited by the Division, provided that the best practical treatment, maintenance, and control currently available shall be utilized in order to maintain the lowest possible emission of odorous gases/ and, where applicable, provided there is compliance with stem 4r of the Colorado Depart- ment of Health Pasteurized Fluid Milk and Milk Products Regulation adopted 18 April 1967. In determining the best practical control methods, the Division shall not require any method which would result in an arbitrary and unreasonable taking of property or in the practical closing of any lawful business or activity, if such would be without corresponding public benefit. (b) For all areas it is a violation when odors are detected after the odorous air has been diluted with one hundred twenty-seven (127) or more volumes of odor free air in which case provisions of Paragraph A(3) (a) shall not be applicable. 2.1 BOARD OF EDUCATION RAYMOND YEAGER, V.

Gentlemen: Consider this a letter of disapproval for a Special Use Permit to Rolanda Feeds Inc. There have been numerous complaints from concerned citizens regarding the obnoxious odor produced from this operation, also what effect the raw material will have on fly infestation in the summer months. We have been advised that scrubbers have been installed to eliminate the odor, but thus far there has not been any noticible improvement. The Town of Keenesburg is already bordered by a chicken farm, dairy farms, and a hog operation, and we feel one more operation of this nature will certainly not enhance our chances for future growth. Air polluticn being a major issue everywhere, should be given top priority in making your decision. We are not anti-free-enterprise, but feel the health and welfare of the people should be our major concern. Therefore- we implore your careful consideration in approving this Special Use Permit.

I called John Hall at the Weld County Health Department to advise of the time of the incident and a few minutes later went to see a customer who lived 3/4 mile East of Weld Road 83. While I was at that location checking some buildings, the smell from Rolanda had moved to that point so that it was easily noted. Once you have smelled it - you don't mistake it for anything else. Now, if you will look at a Weld County map you will see that the location I described, which is right on Highway 52, is over 16 miles East of the Rolanda plant. I do not care what concentrations are permitted under accepted State Health guidelines. Anything that is distinguishable at that distance after being diluted with dean country air has to be intolerable when discharged. Again, there can be no justification for a permit to operate unless the odor problem is stopped.

As n property owner in the town of hudson, this matter is of great concern to me, as I an certain it is to the rest of the residents of tae Hudson-Keenesburg community. I'm certain the members of the Planning Uommission will take into consideration, when reaching a decision as to the issuance of a special use permit to Rolanda Feeds, the wisnes of the hundreds of people in the affected area that have for years had their lives, families and savings invested in the community. It is my belief that the protection of the rignts and well-being of the people in this area should be foremast in the minds of each member of the Commission when reaching a decision on any matter affecting this area. I am opposed in every way to the continued operation of Rolanda Feeds in the hudson-Keenesburg area. The odor associated with the reclamation of poultry waste is particularly offensive, and unlike Ron Stowe who stated the odor was not too strong, I believe it is not a matter of degree but of its mere existence. Tne discomfort of the area residents caused by the odor and the more than likely loss of property value, far overshadow the additional revenue to the area or the 21 new jobs. It is beyond my comprehension how the reclamation of poultry feces for profit, can in any stretch of the imagination, be considered an agricultural operation and not commercial. Rolanda Feeds is a commercial operation by definition (made or done for profit) and not by the raw material it uses. It is easily understandable that to purchase or lease agricultural property for a commercial venture would lower the initial investment and coupled with the readily available raw material (K.L. Smith Enterprises Ltd. ) , would produce the resultant higher profits. On J/ • - 2 - the other side of the ledger, if this venture is allowed to operate in its present location it will be at our expense. I hope, that unlike current trend,, the final result of the action to be taken by the Commission will be an expression of represenative government. Thank you for your time and concern.

I wrote the county commissioners and complained about this stench and I got one letter back to pacify me. I notice none of the commissioners live near Rolanda nor do the owners. Last Thursday, January 19, 1978, the wind was just right, I got out of my car and puked before I got to the house. I called the health dept. talking to Mr. Harry Collier. He said Mr. Ron Stoll would be out to take the readings on this smell. As of this date no one has wrote or called to let me know their findings. This isn't the only time its' been here. Every time the wind is out of the East and Rolanda is operating we can except the stench. As you can tell I live approximately 4 miles from Rolanda. The E.P.A. has washed it's hands of Rolanda and it's problems. Also, how was this building built without a building permit? A reply to this letter would be appreciated.

I think that in itself is reason enough to get rid of the smell and/or the plant, leave alone the discomfort it causes when it invades homes, cars, schools, churches, businesses, etc. The other day while walking 30 feet from my car to my front door, this smell cause me to cou,z;h, gag and hold my breath just to make it inside the door! I will agree that the smell is not constant, bat, it is so bad when it's around that it's unfair to -lake this whole community suffer! Please take my letter into serious concern and help do something to stop this pollution problem. Thank you for your time and I hope, your cooperation. Sincerely, //i a �1 Victoria Gnojek, Keenesburg Elementary Teacher January 5, 1978 Weld County Planning Ccmmission Centennial Bldg. Greeley, Colorado 80631 Re: Rolanda Feeds Inc. Gentlemen: I note in today's edition of the Keene Valley Sun that a hearing on Rolanda is tentatively set for January 17th. Keenesburg, and the entire area for miles around, stinks this morning from the stack emission from Rolanda. I do not care what the State Health Department determines, the odor from Rolanda is offensive and detrimental to the general enjoyment of property and life quality in the Keenesburg-Hudson area. If it is not possible for Rolanda to further reduce the stack emissions and odor, then there should be no way that a permit be granted for continued operation.

In fact the Rolanda operation has continued to date with no improvement as to either opacity or odor. In the Commission' s anxiety to have the State make a deter- mination we have now attained the epitome of inaction. As of this date no tests have been made to determine whether or not Rolanda is in compliance, other than the tests by Ron Stow, obviously ignored by the Commission for evidence at the first he aring. Please see the attached petitions which will give a general idea of what the "folks" down here feel about Rolanda' s continued operation. Thank you for any consideration that may be shown in this instance. Enclosed you will find two adds and copys of petitions obtained from 728 Concerned Citizens together with notarized affidavets.

Rd. 51 , Hudson , CO Dear Commissioner Roe: It is my understanding that the subject enterprise is operating without sanction of the authorities involved. Further , that they are now attempting to secure that authority after the fact. I strongly object to their operation for the following reasons : a. I have personally observed smoke fror their facility that, in fact , caused a deterent to sight covering an area to the north- west exceeding 1?; miles. b. The odor created from their operation at a distance of 2 miles on at least 4 instances in the past two weeks exceeding 6 hours duration made it necessary to vacate the outside of our home and shut the windows in an unsuccessful attempt to escape and reduce the stifeling smell . As a result of the aforementioned conditions , this operation which invades the privacy of both my family and myEelf , must be considered a public nuisance and illegal. Under no circumstances should Rolando Feeds , Inc. be allowed to petition for manufacturing permits until their operation has been approved by Federal , State and County authorities . In addition , they should he required to prove that not only have the standards been complied with but that they can continue to meet these standards in the future; subject to closure. Any assistance you may render will be greatly appreciated and certainly is of benefit to tae community involved. Sincerely, (---- -I ./--T) ALLEN G. ALTER 8465 Weld Co.

My sugsestion,which I have talked to two of the partners about, would be to have some kind or gam collecting appratus on the dryer. I think the recycling is a good idea and collection of the gas would further enhance the operation and eliminate odors and crnrt3 esions.

I live near the Weld Central Jr. and Sr. High School and I object to the foul odors that are being emitted by the Rolanda Feeds operation. . My understanding is that this operation was started without the necessary permits or permission and that a rezoning would be required. Doesn't that make this an illegal operation? If they are allowed to continue then I certainly should be able to start a trailer court on my land without your concern or permission. If this operation is allowed to continue without any permits or rezoning why even bother to have a Planning Board or County Commission? There are many areas that are virtually unpopulated where an operation of this type would cause little objection or concern so why should they be allowed to ' continue illegally in a high density area where they are not wanted? I will be unable to attend the June 21st meeting but I want my name added to those that DO NOT want Rolanda Feeds to continue regardless of any or all promises they may make. Please do all in your power to stop this outrageous situation. Thank you.

Unless Otherwise Stated, This Bulletin Is For The Information Of Members Only—File For Reference ESPC O355O2 THE CLUSTER FLY DISTRIBUTION Cluster flies, Pollenia rudis (F. ) are common in Southern Canada, North- eastern and Northcentral United States. They occasionally occur as far south as Northern Florida. DESCRIPTION Adult cluster flies are dark grey to blackish, slightly larger than the common house fly, and have sucking mouthparts. The thorax lacks obvious striping. Newly emerged adults have distinctive yellow, tawny or golden hair on the back, behind the head and around the base of the wings. These hairs are often light colored in older specimens. The abdomen has mottled light and dark grey areas. Whenever at rest , these flies appear narrow in outline be- cause of the habit of overlapping the two wings scissor-fashion (see Figure 1) . s%, rqpk t1 a A FIGURE 1: Adult Cluster Fly LIFE HISTORY Overwintering adults emerge from their hiding places in the spring when , the air temperature reaches about 50°F. It is at this time that they are a nuisance as they buzz about lights and windows and are the cause for customer inquiries. Adult flies feed on early spring flowers, sap or decaying fruits. As the daytime temperature increases, females are fertilized and begin to lly eggs when the temperature reaches about 80°F. Eggs are laid singly in cre- vices in the soil and hatch in three to five days. Larvae seek out earthworms in which they develop for periods of two to three weeks. When larval growt-Z is completed, pupation occurs in the soil. The pupal period lasts normally from one and one-half to two weeks but may last as long as six weeks, depen- ding upon environmental conditions. There are from three to four fenerat_oas per year. HABITS During summer, adult:, feed on flowering plants and plant ;lids. By; early fall adults of the last generation have emerged and seek shelter on cool days (below 50°F) . Their search for protected hibernating quarters is probably an instinctive protective measure against such predators as birds. Such sites are usually concealed, generally inaccessible and in locations which are seldom disturbed. In rural areas, cluster flies can be found under debris , in tree holes or in crevices . In urban arcaG , buildings provide the most suitable shelter arel. Common places for hibernation seem to be in attics, wall voids, and ibcu, window frames. Other recorded ce.reats in- clude: behind pictures , Iraperies or bascnoards; under furniture or edges ESPC 035503 of carpets; within made-up beds , closets , chimneys, electrical outlets and junction boxes. Wintertime activity of cluster flies largely is controlled by the tem- perature of their hiding places. Below 50°F they are seldom active. As the temperature increases they wander from their hibernating areas to nearby surfaces where they may be observed walking about aimlessly or flying weakly. A few active flies can be found on the south side of houses nearly every warm sunny day throughout the winter when the sun' s heat reaches their hiding place. On the other hand, during cold windy days cluster flie3 may be active if they are hibernating on the lee side of poorly insulated houses . In this case the warm air of the interior is drawn through the voids and crevices which are used by the cluster flies . FACE FLIES DISTRIBUTION The face fly, Musca autumnalis De Geer, is found from Maine to Oregon. It ranges no further south than Northern Georgia. DESCRIPTION In general appearance, conformation, size and color, the face fly is so similar to the house fly that it is difficult to distinguish one from the other. Differences in habits are the most useful means of distinguishing be- tween the two species. LIFE HISTORY The female face fly lays her eggs in cow manure that is less than two hours old. After the eggs hatch, the larvae develop very rapidly, usually within three to five days . When full grown, the yellowish maggots move into adjacent soil or to the drier parts of the manure and pupate. The pupal pe- riod lasts for five to seven days , after which the adult flies emerge. The adult flies feed on secretions around the eyes, nostrils and mouths of live- stock. They suck available liquids and irritate the animals. Nostrils , mouths and other moist surfaces are also attractive. Fresh blood from wounds, scratches or bites of other insects is eagerly sought by the ac.ults. They are unable to draw blood themselves, as they have sucking mouthparts like those on houseflies . HABITS The importance of face flies as a homeowner pest involves their habit of hibernating indoors . The problem appears to be focused in rur•11 and suburban area, where livestock i; present . Even though the customer may not have horses or cattle on his premises , adjacent ranches and farms may contribute to recur- rent nuisance populations . Tn the fall when temperature drops below 53°F, the adult flies begin to seek protected places where they can overwinter. They will attempt to enter houses or other heated buildings and garages. They can enter ter^:gh cracks and hole- in siding, window weight pulley holes and unscreened louvc.ra. During esld weather usually they hide in attics and between the walls of h .iI .i:iga . :.wring late ..all, winter and early spring, face f,Tes become a is: _ .1 they lvE' their hiding places anc move into heo' ed rooms.

Although control at the breeding site generally is recognized as _he ideal way of preventing infestations of many species of flies , this is hardly practical with cluster or face flies around the home. Elimination of the earthworm hosts of the cluster fly over a wide area would be impractical. While it is Jesirable to keep cluster flies out of structures by cloaing<open- ings, cracks and crevices, this procedure is quite often difficult and imprac- tical. Chlordane or dimethoate (Cygon) may be applied as an exterior wall ' surface treatment to cracks and crevices where flies may alight or crawl into the structure. When they are encountered as large groups in accessible areas as in attics, it is a rel-..tively simple matter to direct a heavy amount of a contact spray on the group. Individuals which are wetted will be killed. Un- fortunately, clustering flies geldem accumulate in these large exposed masses so that it is usually necessary t search .'dt all the obscure places in a structure such as pulley holes , cracks , imperfections in siding, entrances of pipes and conduits,, electrical switches, and junction baxes ; in .act, an, crevices thr,augh which the flies may squeeze. In t-reating concealed areas as in the voids behind a win,,ow pulley, either a fine mi..t or a dust should be employed for the purpose-' of reaching all parts of the void.

Zarlengo, P. C. , in response to notice of the Weld County Planning Commission' s recommendation for denial of Special Use Permit entered on February 7 , 1978, and hereby enters its objection to said recommendation, and submits the following reasons why the proposed Order should not issue: 1 . That prejudicial error was committed by recep- tion of purported evidence outside of the hearing held by the Planning Commission without the presence of counsel or the Ap- plicant which was materially detrimental to the Applicant, to wit : a. ) Weld County Health Department report of alleged violation by Applicant to have occurred January 30 , 1978 ; b . ) Action of the Air Pollution Control Divi- sion of The Colorado Department of Health of February 7, 1978 , which revoked Applicant ' s emission permit . c. ) Letter of January 11 , 1978 to the Plan- ning Commission, purportedly submitted as an official act of the Town of Keenasburg, recommending denial of Special Use Permit to Applicant. 2 . That the action of The Colorado Division of Air Pollution Control revoking Applicant 's emission permit was un- lawful , and Applicant has appealed said revocation to the Dis- trict Court of Weld County in Civil Action No. 29731 . Said action is now pending judicial determination. c . �► 3. That a reason given by the Planning Commission to support its recommendation for denial of the Special Use Permit was a letter of January 11 , 1978, purporting to represent the official position of the Town of Keenesburg; that said letter was not authorized by the Town of Keenesburg; and that consideration of said letter as representing the official posi- tion of the Town of Keenesburg was erroneous and was materially prejudicial against Applicant. 4. That the reception of prejudicial evidence outside the hearing and of prejudicial evidence after the hear- ing was closed on January 17, 1978, was contrary to law, in violation of administrative procedure, and thereby any subse- quent determination by the Planning Commission was void. 5 . That because of the reception of the foregoing prejudicial evidence, the deliberations , discussions and con- siderations by the Planning Commission subsequent to January 17, 1978, when the hearing was closed, were contrary to law and its meetings and recommendation reached thereby were void. WHEREFORE, Applicant requests this Commission to hold a hearing on Applicant 's foregoing Objection To Recommen- dation of Planning Commission, and to reject the recommendation of the Planning Commission.2Nf ONY V.

KEENE VALLEY SUN EDITORIAL JULY 7, 1977 Will Rolanda Plant Be Accepted? SOUTHEAST WELD COUNTY— at least the part around Hud- son and Keenesburg—has gotten kind of uptight about the Rolanda Feed Mill and its processing of chicken manure into cattle feed. Why? Because of the odor. And the flies. I VISITED THE PLANT LAST WEEKEND and I admit I was im- pressed with the ingenuity on the part of the owners—and the definite economic advantage it offers to SE Weld. Additional income, and addi- tional employment. These are advantages not to be sneezed at, by anyone. The owners expect the scrubber to eliminate all odors, and the en- closure of the whole plant this fall—erecting a building over the whole operation—to eliminate the fly problem. . And if these proposed refinements work as expected by the own- ers, then the opposition should end. HOWEVER, I KEEP REMEMBERING the immense stockyards owned by Ken Monfort just north of Greeley. It was a remarkable spectacle. Thousands of cattle being fed a for- mula. Foreign travelers visited the scene and marveled. We once took our Irish editor friend Liam Bergin to see it, and he wrote a fitting trib- ute to the American system of fattening cattle for the slaughterhouse in his paper in Ireland. But . . . the Monfort plant kept growing. Tourists and visitors to Greeley complained, and some of the townspeople began to complain about the smell. And although the power that reigned in Greeley those years—the bankers, and retired farmers, and landowners—all shrug- ged and chuckled and said that "that was just the smell of money" in the air . . _ Still, Monfort eventually had to move his enormous operation 'way out of town—many miles away from the city of Greeley. ONE ITEM THE OWNERS OF ROLANDA were reluctant to dis- cuss with me was the volume of business they do. How many tons of chicken waste do they handle in a week? And who buys it? Well, my guess would be if the business is a healthy one, they'll be planning to expand it to meet a growing market. And even if the scrubber and the new building control everything now . . . will it, a year from now? So my suggestion would be: There's a lot of land in SE Weld county which is very, very sparsely populated. Perhaps they should find such a spot to relocate the plant—now, when it'll cost less than later. We've all seen what happened to Monfort's, a typical but extended farm operation. The same thing could happen here. r Wed.,Jan.18,1978 GREELEY (Colo.)TRIBUNE 3 At what point does chicken manure become too smelly?
