There will be no entrances to any County roads for the project and the only impact to the County road system will be during the construction of the pipeline project. 12. Any portable toilet to be used on site at the compressor station shall not be visible from any public right -of -way. 13. That the Applicant satisfy the comments from the County Vegetation Director as follows: A. Regarding noxious weeds: A survey and weed management plan has been provided. The applicant's consultant has recommended that weed control be performed prior to ground disturbing activities. Staff agrees with this and would like to see treatment application records provided before construction starts, weather permitting. B. Regarding revegetation, the revegetation plan and site reclamation plan am acceptable. Staff does request that the applicant make the seed tags available to Garfield County upon completion of the reseeding efforts. Staff recommends a revegetation security. The applicant needs to quantify the amount of surface disturbance for both the compressor station and the lateral pipeline located on private lands. Once this information is provided an amount for the security will be established. This may be in the form of a letter of credit, if deemed appropriate by the County Attorney's Office, or the funds by may be deposited with the County Treasurer The security shall be held by Garfield County until vegetation has been successfully reestablished according to the Reclamation Standards in the Garfield County Weed Management Plan. 14. That the Applicant satisfies the Mountain Cross Engineering comments as follows; C. it is the responsibility of the applicant to contact the County, upon successful revegetation establishment, to request an inspection for bond release consideration. D. The applicant proposes that the low pressure pipelines will not be pressure tested, stating that, `These pipelines will be run at low pressures well below the bursting pressures and yield strengths of the pipelines." However, the primary reason for pressure testing pipes is to determine 1111 FPi'k.

More justification needs to be provided by the applicant showing that leaking pipelines will have no adverse effects or these lines should also be pressure tested. E. The compressor pad shows an office building. The application does not discuss the office or any provisions necessary for sewer and water facilities. F. The grading plan shows the compressor at the bottom of a drainage with a ditch along the west side. This ditch and the culvert beneath the entrance should be engineered to verify adequate capacity. G. Permitting is in various stages of completion. Copies of permits should be provided to Garfield County as they are obtained. H. The proposed pipeline crosses various drainage ways shown on the USGS map provided. These streams are proposed to be crossed under a Nationwide permit. Only one of these is discussed within the application, "... a small dry drainage located on Richard Gieske's property..." The cumulative total disturbance of crossing these other drainages, and possibly wetlands, may require permitting with the US Army Corp of Engineers. The applicant should verify that these other crossings will not require permitting. 1. Whether or not any of the jurisdictional drainages also have mapped floodplains is not discussed. Garfield County flood plain permits may be required. 15. That only 6 compressors shall be allowed to be installed at the compressor station. 16. That the Applicant obtains and provides the County with the BLM 299 permit for the 321 foot section of pipeline corridor. $ Bill Barrett Corporation March 3, 2011 Garfield County Building & Planning Department Attention — Molly Orkild- Larson 0375 County Road 352 Building #2060 Rifle, CO 81650 RECEIVED MAR 032011 GARFIELD COUNTY BUILDING & PLANNING Subject: Application to Amend PDPA Approved By Resolution 2005 -53 Bailey Compressor Station & East Lateral Pipeline Dear Molly: Enclosed is an application to amend the subject Pipeline Development Plan Application (PDPA). Supporting documentation to this application is provided below and in the attachments to this letter. Summary of Change Requested As a result of changes made during construction at the Bailey Compressor Station, the final configuration of the compressor station is different than that approved in the subject PDPA. These changes were required to facilitate construction and to increase the efficiency and safety of the facility. The site plan that was approved under the PDPA is included as Attachment A, and Attachment B contains an as -built drawing for the compressor station. The changes to the original site plan are detailed below. 1. The orientation of the compressors, compressor building, and associated equipment (e.g., cooling towers) was shifted to a more east -west orientation than was shown on the original site plan. 2. The orientation of the slug bottles, dehydrators and pig catchers was shifted approximately 45 degrees from that shown on the original site plan. 3. The MCC /Office shown on the original site plan has been separated into two separate buildings with the MCC (now shown as the Electrical Building) being moved to the east side of the facility and the Office changed to a Control Building that is located near the northwest corner of the facility. The Control Building that is currently installed at the location simply serves as a place for personnel to occasionally assemble and to keep computers monitoring the facility in a safe and weather -proof environment. The current Control Building is not certified by the Colorado Division of Housing (CDOH) and will be replaced with a CDOH compliant structure upon approval of this amendment and an associated building permit from Garfield County. 4. The incinerator (now referred to as the burner) has been moved to the northeast from the location shown on the original site plan. 5. The vent stack has been moved to the east from the location shown on the original site plan. D. Dennison to M. Orkild- Larson March 3, 2011 Page 3 6. In accordance with the original PDPA approval, a maximum of six compressors have been constructed at the facility, therefore, the additional two compressors that were shown on the original site plan will not be installed and are not shown on the as -built drawing. Based on the information provided above, this amendment meets the definition of a non - substantial change as defined in Article XVI of the Garfield County Unified Land Use Resolution. The following provides detail on how the criteria that must be met for the determination of a non - substantial change are met by this amendment: 1. Is consistent with action(s) taken during previous Land Use Change Permit approval — As discussed above and shown in the attachments to this letter, the changes made to this facility are consistent with the original PDPA approval. The overall configuration and footprint of the facility remain unchanged. 2. Does not change the use category of the proposed development between residential, commercial and industrial uses - The proposed amendment does not change the use category. 3. Does not change the basic character of the approved use of land on which the activity occurs, including basic visual appearance and method of operation — The proposed amendment will not change the basic character of the previously approved use of the land. 4. Does not constitute a new land development activity — The proposed amendment does not constitute a new land development activity. 5. Does not violate any Land Use Code standard — The proposed amendment will be constructed in accordance with all applicable standards and the conditions of the approved PDPA. 6. Does not substantially increase off -site impacts (including but not limited to increased traffic, water use, wastewater generation, etc.) in the surrounding neighborhood — As noted above, the overall configuration and footprint of the facility has not changed, therefore, there should be no increase in off -site impacts. In fact, BBC has successfully implemented a number of design changes to the facility to address initial noise complaints received from neighboring residents. 7. Does not substantially increase the need for on -site parking or utilities — Not applicable. 8. Does not increase the floor area of the use by more than five (5) percent or decrease the open space on the site by more than five (5) percent -- Not applicable. 9. Does not endanger the public health, safety or welfare (Resolution 2010 -30) — The proposed amendment will not present any public health, safety or welfare concerns.
