I confirmed management wants to withdraw the application. I am on vacation next week and haven't found a suitable
substitute to attend. I could attend a later meeting and speak or you could take this email as confirmation that Noble
Energy wants to completely withdraw the application.
Thanks

Hi Greg
The Board wanted to make certain that you were requesting a complete vacation of the permit for the
Gill Storage Yard. AS the costs associated with permitting are high,did you want to request an
extension to the timing of implementing the permit. By Code,the facility is required to be constructed
within 3 years of Board of County Commissioners approval.
The Board was seeking confirmation that Noble Energy had no plans now or in the future to utilize the
current permit at the Gill location. If at all possible are you able or someone from your office to be in
attendance at the 9:00 AM hearing on Monday July 27th? Alternatively,an email or letter stating your
position would be appreciated.
I am out on vacation until Monday. Feel free to call my mobile phone if you would like
to discuss.
Thanks!
