LLC- - - deE.v1 Site Specific Development Plan and Use by Special Review (USR) Questionnaire 1. Explain, in detail, the proposed use of the property. We (Expedition Water Solutions) EWS, are purposing to build a Class II salt water disposal with the future capability to recycle the water and wash out trucks/tanks. EWS has no immediate plans to construct the water recycling or wash out. This disposal will have one entrance/exit for truck traffic with a concrete receiving pad where the trucks will off-load (and possibly load recycled water in the future). The entrance is on the south side of the property off WCR 50 once inside the gate the flow of traffic will then head north and then to the west to get onto the concrete receiving pad. There will be six bays constructed initially. Four bays will be designated for off- loading trucks and two bays will be designated for loading recycled water or washing trucks/tanks out at a later date. Once the truck is on the pad with the engine shut off we will ground the truck and begin to offload the truck. The driver will then go into the office area to fill out a manifest which is required by the state. We anticipate a maximum of 130 trucks visiting the site per day. The truck will offload via an enclosed loop system. EWS will be recycling water for both oilfield use and the potential of rinsing out trucks and tanks. All this will be on the concrete pad where the trench will catch the rinse water off the trucks/tanks and water left in the hose once the truck is offloaded. This rinse water will be entered back into our system for recycling or injection. The concrete vault will receive the water from the trench and then be pumped out to the flat tank. The vault will be triple lined and will have a monitoring well to detect if the liners would ever become violated. The water being offloaded will pass through the flat tank then over to the system tanks where the water will go through a series of tanks prior to entering the building where the water will be filtered. At this point in the process the water will be filtered to at least 50 microns and then injected via an injection pump. The injection pump will be located in the only building on this site. The building will also contain the offices and restrooms for staff and drivers. 2. Explain how this proposal is consistent with the intent of the Weld County Code, Chapter 22 of the Comprehensive Plan. Expedition Water Solutions has read and understands the Weld County Code, Chapter 22 of the Comprehensive Plan and plans on abiding by the code as instructed in Chapter 22. 3. Explain how this proposal is consistent with the intent of the Weld County Code, Chapter 23 (Zoning) and the zone district in which it is located. Expedition Water Solutions would fall under the Oil and Gas Support and Service section of Chapter 23 of the Weld County Code. 4. What type of uses surround the site (explain how the proposed use is consistent and compatible with surrounding land uses). The land in the surrounding area, to the north is vacant ground with the Five Stars cattle feed lot approximately 1 mile away. To the east is vacant ground with several farm houses approximately 1/2 mile down the road. To the south is vacant land with a farm house approximately 1/2 mile away and to the west is vacant land with several farm houses boarding the proposed property. (See attached exhibit A) 5. Describe in detail, the following: a. Number of people who will use this site. Expedition Water Solutions respectfully request truck traffic at 130 trucks per day. b. Number of employees proposed to be employed at this site. There will be approximately 10 EWS employees working at this location. Each 8 hour shift will have two employees with a manager there during the day between 7am and 4pm. c. Hours of operation. Trucks may access the site seven days a week, 24 hours a day. d. Type and Number of structure to be erected (built) on this site. There will be one building (60'x80') with an office area, rest rooms and a pump house where the inject pump will be located. The outside will have a receiving pad made of concrete where the trucks will offload. e. Type and number of animals, if any, to be on this site. No animals will be on site. f. Kind of vehicle (type, size, weight) that will access this site and how often. Transport trucks, weighing approximately 40 tons visiting the site over 130 times per day. g. Who will provide fire protection to the site. This facility will fall under the Kersey Fire District. Prior to commencing operations EWS will have the Kersey Fire Department tour the facility and hold a training class to go over the operations. h. Water source on the property (both domestic and irrigation). CWCWD has a water tap available on location. i. Sewage disposal system on the property (existing and proposed). A professional engineer will design the proposed septic system j. If storage or warehousing is proposed, what type of items will be stored? Nothing to be stored on site 6. Explain the proposed reclamation procedures when termination of the Use by Special Review activity occurs. EWS will landscape the facility to make the surrounding neighbors feel the pride of ownership we intend to show. There will be a three wire fence around the entire facility. 7. Explain any proposed reclamation when termination of the Use by Special Review activity occurs. All equipment, concrete pads and building will be removed and return the USR parcel back into agriculture land. 8. Explain how the storm water drainage will be handled on the site. Storm water will be designed by an engineer if need be. 9. Explain how long it will take to construct this site and when construction and landscaping is scheduled to begin. The construction of the well pad will commence once the appropriate COGCC permits are acquired and approved. Once the well is drilled and EWS has building permits approved, construction of the facility will start with approximately 180 days to complete the facility. 10. Explain where storage and/or stockpiles of waters will occur on the site. This facility will have one tank inside the concrete berm designated for waste. ** EWS will dispose of the used filters to a landfill as per the landfills specifications. ** The dumpster on site for the trash will have 6' fence around it. ** The sludge from the tanks will be hauled off to CSI in Bennett, Colorado to be disposed of properly under their guidelines. From: Jim Goddard To: Kim Ogle Subject: 7 Day Completeness Date: Wednesday,March 05,2014 9:10:42 AM Attachments: jmaae002.onq Mr. Ogle, please find below our response to the 7- day Completeness Review for the Class II Disposal Well located east of Kersey. Noise Control: The operation of the facility shall comply with the noise standards enumerated in Section 802 of the COGCC Amended Rules 2008 in addition to any other applicable state noise standards. Minimal noise emissions are expected from operations on this site. Noise sources are expected to be limited to vehicle traffic (which we might add that we are currently working with an E&P to pipe line the water into the facility eliminating some of the truck traffic) and electric injection pumps which will be housed inside an insulated buildings. Groundwater Monitoring: I have copied and pasted an email from Craig Mulica to Lauren Light regarding the ground water monitoring at the SWD facility. Ms. Light, CGRS is currently working with Jim Goddard and Expedition Water Solutions to provide environmental consulting, permitting and reporting for the EWS#1 (Keota) and EWS#2 (E. Kersey) facilities. Our scheduled initial scope of work includes completion of all applicable APENs, SPCCs, groundwater monitoring plans and well installation (minimum of 4 wells/site) and subsequent groundwater quality sampling. This includes all submittal and correspondence with the local, State and federal agencies, as applicable. The installation of groundwater monitoring wells will be completed once basic structures of each facility has been established and prior to the commencement of facility operations. Monitoring wells will be installed adjacent to facility operations areas with an emphasis placed on the installation of wells hydraulically down gradient of E&P liquid unloading and storage areas. A site Groundwater Monitoring Plan for each site will be submitted to Weld County with all applicable sampling frequency, analyses, sampling procedures, and site details. APENs and SPCC plans will be completed per applicable State and Federal standards and submitted as required to the appropriate agencies. APENs and SPCC plans will be completed based on site-specific details and the individual as-built construction and throughput design of each facility. If you have any questions about CGRS' scope of work for Expedition Water Solutions, or the timing of this work, please feel free to give me a call. I am also available via email. I look forward to working in conjunction with you on these upcoming sites. Talk to you soon. Craig S. Mulica Project Manager/Senior Geologist CGRS, Inc. 1301 Academy Ct. Fort Collins, Colorado 80524 Ph: 970.493.7780 Cell: 970.420.6837 Fax: 970.493.7986 As per our conversation last Friday 1 believe you and Eric Wernsman discussed the 24" culvert and its location. Expedition Water Solutions has requested to recycle produced and flowback water on location. At this time EWS main objective is to get the disposal portion of the USR up and operational. The recycled water and washout will be implemented at a later date. All solids will be trucked off the site and disposed of an approved disposal facility. EWS plans on this facility being manned 24/7/365. A truck will enter the facility and once upon the concrete pad will offload the water via electric pumps. As mentioned earlier EWS does not plan on recycling the water in the beginning of operations but, if we were the truck that just offloaded could move over to the concrete loading pad were we could load the truck with recycled therefore, cutting down on the number of trucks coming into the facility empty to load recycled water. EWS plans on checking each and every load coming into our facilities once the load is accepted we will take the safety measures to ensure proper grounding is in place. EWS employees will be in charge of this task while the driver comes into the office to fill out the proper documentation for state records. We have already applied for the Access Permit. Please let us know if you need any additional information from Expedition Water Solutions. Make it a great day!

Box 758 Greeley CO 80632 RE: Drainage letter for Expedition Water Solutions new facility (EWS#2) on Weld County RD 50 Dear Ms. Petrik: This letter addresses the Water Quality Capture Volume (WQCV) requirements and existing and proposed drainage ways on the site The storm-water historically enters the site from the north-west and drains across the site to the south east. The proposed plan will collect offsite flows and direct them around the improvements to the water quality pond in the south east corner of the site. The improvements will also drain to the same water quality pond. When the water quality pond reaches capacity at elevation 4605 storm-water will flow to the east as sheet flow. Storm water will travel approximately 320 feet east on the lot to further dissipate flows before they travel onto the property to the south. The proposed conditions imperviousness is 5.7 which is less than the 10 which would require the site to have a detention pond. The WQCV required for the site is 6340 cubic feet. The pond as shown on the grading plan provides approximately 46,581 cubic feet of storage. If you have any further questions or comments regarding this matter, please contact this office.

The applicant, Mr. Jim Goddard, indicates that Expedition Water Solutions has met with several neighbors and it appears that the truck traffic and staging of trucks on County roads are two primary issues. Mr. Goddard verbally assured them that there would be no staging of the trucks associated with this facility on the county road. Mr. Goddard has also had meetings with the Platte Valley(Kersey) Fire Chief Barry Schaefer and the Superintendent of Weld County RE-7 Schools Glenn McClain, Jr. regarding the application. The original application requested a twenty-four hour a day, seven day a week, 365 day a year operation with a pipeline supporting the facility for conveyance of brinewater to this site in lieu of trucks for downhole disposal. After hearing their issues and after discussion, Expedition Water Solutions has agreed to open the facility's gates at 8:00AM after the school buses are back at the bus barn and close the facility to truck traffic at 10:00PM. As reference, Development Standard No. 28 would be amended from "Hours of operation are twenty-four (24) hours each day, seven (7) days per week— 365 days per year." (Department of Planning Services) to "Hours of operation of the Salt Water Disposal Well Facility are twenty-four(24) hours each day, seven (7) days per week— 365 days per year. Accepting water from inbound trucks between the hours of 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM, daily." (Department of Planning Services) Additionally, Mr. Goddard had requested 130 trips be permitted for the facility. In an effort to reduce the truck traffic coming to the facility, Mr. Goddard is requesting to reduce the number of trucks inbound into the facility to 70 trucks per day. As reference, the application materials stated there would be 130 trips per day at this facility. Staff proposes to place a new Development Standard No. 22 and renumber accordingly. New Development Standard No. 22 states "The Facility is restricted to 70 trucks per day, 7 days a week, 365 days per year." (Department of Planning Services) Fire Chief Schaefer requested consideration of utilizing Hwy 34 to County road 61 and then heading west on County road 50 to the facility for inbound traffic and the reverse for outbound traffic. Mr. Goddard indicated to the Chief that Expedition Water Solutions did not establish the haul routes but would discuss this option with Public Works.

The well installation and baseline soil and groundwater quality sampling activities will be scheduled after basic site infrastructure has been constructed. A site location map is included as Figure 1, and a proposed site conditions map illustrating the anticipated monitoring well locations is included as Figure 2. The Groundwater Monitoring Plan provides baseline groundwater quality data,which will facilitate early detection of an unknown subsurface release of exploration and production fluids related to facility processing activities. In addition to groundwater sampling, depth to groundwater will be measured in each monitoring well and the groundwater elevation, flow direction,and hydraulic gradient will be calculated using surveyed well elevations in order to monitor groundwater flow trends. Water quality samples will be collected and analyzed for constituents associated with oil and gas exploration and production activity. Water quality sampling activities for the EWS #2 facility will be performed on a quarterly basis. Water quality samples will be submitted to a contract laboratory for analysis of benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylenes(BTEX),total dissolved solids(TDS),and chlorides. A full description of CGRS'Methods and Procedures for field and reporting activities are provided in Attachment A. Four permanent groundwater monitoring wells (MW-1 through MW-4) will be installed up-gradient, down-gradient and/or adjacent to facility operation areas (Figure 2). The proposed monitoring wells will be installed to a depth of approximately 30 feet below ground surface(bgs). The wells will be constructed with approximately 25 feet of 2-inch diameter, 10-slot PVC screen and approximately 5 feet of solid PVC riser. 10/20 silica sand will be applied around the screened portion of the wells to a depth of approximately 2 feet above the well screen, at which point the well borings will be sealed with a hydrated bentonite/grout mixture to the surface. Monitoring wells will be finished with locking j- plug well seals and either 4-inch square aluminum stick-up mounts or flush-mounted traffic rated manways. Pertinent information, such as soil sample descriptions of color, texture, consistency, moisture content, and soil vapor readings along with well construction details of each monitoring well will be provided in the associated quarterly groundwater monitoring report. CGRS will begin quarterly groundwater monitoring prior to when the facility commences full-scale operation in order to obtain adequate baseline water quality samples.

Expedition Water Solutions—EWS#2 Facility METHODS AND PROCEDURES Expedition Water Solutions; EWS#2 Facility SW 1/4,SW 1/4,Sec.36,T5N,R64W Kersey,Colorado CGRS Project# 1-10488-14497aa Soil Borings Soil sampling will be conducted in accordance with ASTM:D 1586-08a. Using this procedure, a 2-inch O.D. split-spoon sampler will be driven into the soil by a 140-pound weight falling 30 inches. After an initial set of 6 inches, the number of blows required to drive the sample an additional 12 inches, known as the penetration resistance (N value), will be recorded. The N value is an index of the relative density of cohesionless soils and the consistency of cohesive soils. Soil Classification/Characterization As samples are obtained in the field, they will be visually inspected and classified in accordance with ASTM:D 1488-84. Representative portions of the samples will then be retained for further examination and for verification of the various strata, the N value, water level data, and pertinent information regarding the method of maintaining and advancing the boring will be provided. Charts illustrating the soil classification procedure, descriptive terminology, and symbols used on the logs will be provided. As samples are collected, they will be examined for evidence of petroleum hydrocarbons using visual appearance and by screening with portable photoionization detection equipment. Decontamination To avoid potential transport of contaminated materials to the project site, all drilling equipment and down- hole tools will be steam cleaned prior to mobilization. To prevent cross contamination between soil borings or monitoring wells,all down-hole equipment will also be steam cleaned and rinsed with water between soil borings. Monitoring Well Construction Monitoring wells will be installed utilizing the following general construction criteria: O borehole diameter: minimum 2.0 inches push probe/6.25 inches conventional boring O well diameter: 1 inch for push probe/2 inches for conventional boring ❑ estimated depth: ≥ 5 feet below static groundwater table ❑ casing material: schedule 40,flush thread PVC -a- CGRS, INC. Expedition Water Solutions—EWS#2 Facility ❑ well screen: 1 inch inside diameter(I.D.)for push probe/2 inch I.D. for conventional boring,# 0.01 slot PVC ❑ estimated screened interval: 10 feet above and 10 feet below the groundwater table (may be adjusted based on total depth and water table position) ❑ annular pack: 10-20 silica sand ❑ protective casing: 4"aluminum above grade mount, locking cap; or 8"steel flush mount traffic rated manway. ❑ annular seal: cement grout and bentonite pellets. Groundwater Sampling All borings where groundwater is encountered will be sampled from the suspected cleanest to the most contaminated according to the protocols listed below. All pertinent information will be recorded on a sampling information form. Field Protocol Step 1 -Measure water level. Step 2 - A dedicated polyethylene bailer will be used to develop each well. Three bore volumes will be evacuated from each well prior to sampling. Step 3 -Collect water samples. Water samples will be collected using a polyethylene bailer. Step 4 - Store samples in a cooler on ice (-4° Celsius) for transport to the laboratory. Follow all documentation and chain-of-custody procedures. Step 5 -Clean equipment. Water level measurement equipment will be cleaned with ethanol followed by a distilled water rinse. Upon completion of soil or groundwater sampling, a chain of custody log will be initiated. A copy of the chain of custody will be returned to the project manager. Chemical Analysis An approved contract laboratory will provide stationary laboratory analysis. The following analyses will be performed: Soil Analyses: Initial well installation Chemical Parameters Method Used Benzene/Toluene/Ethylbenzene/Total Xylenes(BTEX) EPA-8260 B -b- CGRS, INC. Expedition Water Solutions—EWS#2 Facility Soil Analyses: Initial well installation (Continued) Chemical Parameters Method Used Total Volatile Petroleum Hydrocarbons EPA—8260B Water Analyses(Quarterly Groundwater Sampling) Chemical Parameters Method Used Benzene/Toluene/Ethylbenzene/Total Xylenes(BTEX) EPA-8260 B Total Dissolved Solids(TDS) EPA- 160.1 Chlorides EPA-300.1 Groundwater Trend Analyses Groundwater concentrations are measured in site monitoring wells on a quarterly basis. Upon receiving groundwater analytical data from the laboratory the data is inserted into an historic groundwater analytical data table. Chlorides and sulfates concentrations will be evaluated to ensure that the current concentrations in each well do not exceed 1.25 times the average background conditions. If results indicate that this threshold is exceeded, then further analyses or investigation will be conducted. Any BTEX constituents discovered in a monitoring well water quality sample, which are above the Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (COGCC) levels, will be reanalyzed at the laboratory. The presence of BTEX will prompt a complete evaluation of site operations since the last sampling event, and prompt further subsurface investigation if warranted. Groundwater Elevation Measurements The following outlines our standard groundwater quality sampling methodology. Before purging any of the soil test borings or monitoring wells,water level measurements must be taken. Measuring Point Establish the measuring point for the well. The measuring point is marked on the north side of the top of the monitoring well riser. The top of the riser is normally a 2-inch schedule 40 PVC casing inside a locked protective casing. The measuring point should be described on the groundwater sample collection record. -c- CGRS, INC. Expedition Water Solutions—EWS#2 Facility Access After unlocking or opening a monitoring well, the first task will be to obtain a water level measurement. Water level measurements will be made using an electronic water level indicator. Depth to water and total depth of the well will be measured for calculation of purge volume. Measurement To obtain a water level measurement, lower a decontaminated electronic water level probe into the monitoring well. Care must be taken to assure that the electronic probe hangs freely in the monitoring well and is not adhering to the well casing. The electronic probe will be lowered into the well until the audible sound of the unit is detected and the light on the electronic sounder illuminates. At this time, the precise measurement should be determined by repeatedly raising and lowering the probe to obtain an exact measurement. The water level measurement is then entered on the groundwater sampling collection record sheet or groundwater level data sheet to the nearest 0.01 feet. Decontamination The electronic probe shall be decontaminated immediately after use by wiping with isopropyl alcohol- soaked paper towels and rinsed with distilled water. Always proceed in order from the suspected cleanest well or soil test boring to the suspected most contaminated one. Purge Volume Computation All soil test borings, monitoring wells, and temporary monitoring wells will be purged prior to sample collection. Depending upon the rate of recovery, three to five volumes of groundwater present in a well or borehole shall be withdrawn prior to sample collection. If a well or borehole bails dry,the well or borehole should be allowed to recharge and a sample taken as soon as there is sufficient volume for the intended analysis. The volume of water present in each well or borehole shall be computed using the two measurable variables;length of water column in soil boring or monitoring well depth and diameter. Purging and Sample Collection Procedures Bailin ❑ Obtain a laboratory decontaminated disposable bailer and a spool of nylon rope or equivalent bailer cord. Tie a bowline knot or equivalent through the bailer loop. Test the knot for adequacy by creating tension between the line and the bailer. Tie again if needed. New rope and bailer will be used for every sample or purge event. New clean latex gloves will be used when touching the rope or bailer. -d- CGRS, INC. Expedition Water Solutions—EWS#2 Facility O Spread a clean plastic sheet near the base of the well. The plastic sheet should be of sufficient size to prevent bailer or bailer rope from contacting the ground surface. O Place the bailer inside the well to verify that an adequate annulus is present between the bailer and the well casing to allow free movement of the bailer. ❑ Lower the bailer carefully into the well casing to remove the sample from the top of the water column,taking care not to agitate the water in the well. ❑ Pour the bailed groundwater into a bucket. Once the bucket is full,transfer the water to a barrel and contain on-site. LI Raise the bailer by grasping a section of cord, using each hand alternately. This bailer lift method will assure that the bailer cord will not come into contact with the ground or other potentially contaminated surfaces. Sam vlini. O Instructions for obtaining samples for parameters are reviewed with the laboratory coordinator to insure that proper preservation and filtering requirements are met. ❑ Appropriate sample containers will be obtained from the contract laboratory for each individual analyses requested. After samples are collected, they will be put on ice in coolers (4°C). Care will be taken to prevent breakage during transportation or shipment. ❑ Samples collected by bailing will be poured directly into sample containers from bailers. The sample should be poured slowly to minimize air entrapment into the sample bottle. During collection,bailers will not be allowed to contact the sample containers. ❑ Upon completion of sampling a chain-of-custody log will be initiated. Chain-of-custody records will include the following information:project name and number,shipped by,shipped sampling point, location, field ID number, date, time, sample type, number of containers, analysis required, and sampler's signature. The samples and chain-of-custody will be delivered to the laboratory. Upon arrival at the laboratory,the appropriate laboratory personnel will check in the samples.Laboratory identification numbers will be noted on the chain-of-custody record. Upon completion of the laboratory analysis,the completed chain-of-custody record will be returned to the project manager. Field Cleaning Procedures For all equipment to be reused in the field,the following cleaning procedures must be followed: -e- CGRS, INC. Expedition Water Solutions—EWS#2 Facility ❑ Disassemble the equipment to the extent practical. ❑ Wash the equipment with distilled water and laboratory-grade detergent. ❑ Rinse with distilled water until all detergent is removed. ❑ Rinse the equipment with isopropyl alcohol, making sure all surfaces (inside and out) are rinsed. Li Triple rinse the equipment with distilled water. Laboratory Selection The project manager should consider the following factors when selecting a laboratory: ❑ Capabilities(facilities,personnel, instrumentation),including: Cl Participation in inter-laboratory studies (e.g. EPA or other Federal or State agency sponsored analytical programs); ❑ Certifications(e.g.Federal or State); ❑ References(e.g.other clients); and ❑ Experience(UST,RCRA and other environmentally related projects). ❑ Service ❑ Turnaround time;and ❑ Technical input(e.g.recommendations on analytical procedures). The project manager is encouraged to gather pertinent laboratory-selection information prior to extensively defining analytical requirements under the project. A request may be made to a laboratory to provide a qualifications package that should address the points listed above. Once the project manager has reviewed the various laboratory qualifications, further specific discussions with the laboratory or laboratories should take place. In addition, more than one laboratory should be considered. For large-scale investigations, selection of one laboratory as a primary candidate and one or two laboratories as fall-back candidates should be considered. The quality of the laboratory service provided is dependent on various factors. The project manager should be able to control the quality of the information (e.g. samples) provided to the laboratory. It is extremely important that the project manager communicate to the laboratory all the requirements relevant to the project. This includes the number of samples and their matrices, sampling schedule, parameters and constituents of interest, required analytical methodologies, detection limits, holding times, deliverables, level of QA/QC,and required turnaround of analytical results. -f- CGRS, INC. Expedition Water Solutions—EWS#2 Facility Field and Laboratory Quality Control General Quality control checks are performed to ensure that the data collected is representative and valid data. Quality control checks are the mechanisms whereby the components of QA objectives are monitored. Examples of items to be considered are as follows: 1. Field Activities: O Use of standardized checklists and field notebooks; O Verification of checklist information by an independent person; O Strict adherence to chain-of-custody procedures; O Calibration of field devices; O Collection of replicate samples where applicable;and O Submission of field blanks,where appropriate. 2. Analytical Activities: O Method blanks; O Laboratory control samples: O Calibration check samples; O replicate samples; O Matrix-spiked samples; O "Blind"quality control samplers; O Control charts; ❑ Surrogate samples; ❑ Zero and span gases;and O Reagent quality control checks. Management of Waste Material During the advancement of soil borings, decontamination of field equipment and development of soil borings or temporary monitoring wells, waste materials will be generated. This section addresses both the management of solid waste(soils)and the liquid wastes generated. Soil generated during remedial activities will be containerized in 55-gallon drums or stockpiled on an impermeable membrane and covered with plastic,which ever is most appropriate. The waste characteristics of the soil will be determined by appropriate analytical methods and the soil disposed of in accordance with -g- CGRS, INC. Expedition Water Solutions—EWS#2 Facility state and federal regulations. Water generated during field activities will be containerized in storage vessels that are compatible with the suspected or identified contaminant(s). If required, the water will be analyzed by appropriate analytical methods to determine its waste characteristics. If a water treatment system is available, wastewater will be treated on-site, thus eliminating the need for disposal. A portable aeration system can also be utilized to eliminate volatile contaminants in wastewater. In any event, the ultimate disposition of water will be in accordance with all applicable regulations. Reporting After data has been compiled and analyzed,CGRS submits a summary report to Expedition Water Solutions at the following address: Expedition Water Solutions PO Box 336597 Greeley,Colorado 80633 Furthermore,CGRS submits an electronic copy to the following recipients and email addresses: Mr.Jim Goddard; Expedition Water Solutions;jgoddard@expedition-water.com Additional reports may be submitted upon the request of,or permission from,Expedition Water Solutions.
