GARFIELD COUNTY
BUILDING AND PLANNING DEPARTMENT
FEE SCHEDULE
Garfield County, pursuant to Board of County Commissioners ( "Board ") Resolution No.
98 -09, has established a fee structure ( "Base Fee ") for the processing of each type of
subdivision and land use applications.
The Base Fee is an estimate of the average number of hours of staff time devoted to
an application, multiplied by an hourly rate for the personnel involved. The Board
recognized that the subdivision and land use application processing time will vary and
that an applicant should pay for the total cost of the review which may require
additional billing. Hourly rates based on the hourly salary, and fringe benefits costs of
the respective positions combined with an hourly overhead cost for the office will be
used to establish the actual cost of County staff time devoted to the review of a
particular project.
Actual staff time spent will be charged against the Base Fee. After the Base Fee has
been expended, the applicant will be billed based on actual staff hours accrued. Any
billing shall be paid in full prior to final consideration of any land use permit, zoning
amendment or subdivision plan. If an applicant has previously failed to pay application
fees as required, no new or additional applications will be accepted for processing until
the outstanding fees are paid.
Checks, including the appropriate Base Fee set forth below, must be submitted with
each land use application, and made payable to the Garfield County Treasurer.
Applications will not be accepted without the required application fee. Base Fees are
non - refundable in full, unless a written request for withdraw from the applicant is
submitted prior the initial review of the application materials.
Applications must include a Payment Agreement Form ( "Agreement ") set forth below.
The Agreement establishes the applicant as being responsible for payment of all costs
associated with processing the application. The Agreement must be signed by the
party responsible for payment and submitted with the application in order for it to be
accepted.
The following Base Fees shall be received by the County at the time of submittal of
any procedural application to which such fees relate. Such Base Fees shall be in
addition to and exclusive of any cost for publication or cost of consulting service
determined necessary by the Board for the consideration of any application or
additional County staff time or expense not covered by the Base Fee, which have not
otherwise been paid by the applicant to the County prior to final action upon the
application tendered to the County.

3. A change in land use which creates or increases the incompatibility of the use:
This amendment proposal is consistent with the purpose and intended use of the
permitted facility and is compatible with the current and future uses allowed within
the Resource Lands - Gentle Slope zone district.
Impact Analysis of Amendment Proposal
The proposed amendment would not change the design, footprint, equipment or
operational aspects of the existing facility, nor would it increase the impacts to natural
environment. The permit extension would allow adequate time to permit and install
upgraded tanks equipped with vapor recovery and remote monitoring technologies
that would provide an additional measure of operational safety and environmental
protection. This amendment proposal would not require modification to any existing
equipment or increase the surface disturbance within or outside the existing 598 -
35BV well pad. No traffic impacts or other nuisance would be introduced as a result
of this proposal.
Secondary Containment, SPCC, and Stormwater Management
The permitted secondary containment structure has been designed and constructed to
ensure that all potentially harmful liquids are completely contained to prevent any soil
contamination or transport of contaminants offsite by natural forces. The existing
Temporary Produced Water Management Facility is constructed and operated in
accordance with the Chevron Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasures (SPCC)
Plan and is designed and maintained in accordance with the Chevron Skinner Ridge
Stormwater Management Plan. As proposed, a permit extension would not require
any change to existing conditions.
Traffic
This amendment proposal would not increase traffic on public or private roads.
Traffic into and out of the facility is associated with existing field activities and this
proposal would not result in any additional vehicular traffic on County roads.
Conversely, if the current permit were to expire before modifications to the site could
be permitted, constructed and commissioned for service, Chevron would necessarily
have to truck produced water for disposal which could increase traffic on both private
and County roads significantly.
Flora and Fauna
No surface disturbance or vegetation removal is proposed in this application. The
Temporary Produced Water Management System is an existing permitted facility and
no impacts to flora or fauna is expected as a result of this proposal.
Nuisance
Visual: Distance and area topography isolates the existing Temporary Produced
Water Management System from the nearest residence and all other landowners in the
neighboring Roan Creek drainage. The remote location and mountainous terrain
visually separates the site, and most of the Chevron development, from residences in
the vicinity of Roan and Clear Creeks. This amendment proposal would not
contribute to an increase in visual impacts.
Noise: The existing Temporary Produced Water Management Facility is classified as
light industrial under the Colorado Revised Statute 25 -12 -103, which has allowable
noise levels of 70 decibels [db(A)] from 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM and 65 db(A) from 7:00
PM to 7:00 AM. The existing site is located in a remote portion of Garfield County
on a private road primarily accessed by personnel associated with Chevron's Skinner
Ridge natural gas development. Area topography and distance screens the location
from the nearest residence about 2.5 miles from the site. There are no public receptors
in the vicinity of the subject site and the proposal to extend the term of the current
permit would not increase the potential for any noise to be heard outside the facility
boundary. However, if the current permit were to expire before modifications to the
site could be permitted, constructed and commissioned for service, traffic and
associated noise, vehicle emissions, and dust could potentially increase as produced
water would necessarily need to be trucked offsite for disposal.
Vibration: This proposal would not increase the potential for vibration.
Smoke and Particulate Matter: The proposal to extend the term of the current permit
would not contribute to the generation of smoke or particulate matter. The area is
sprayed with water as necessary to control fugitive dust.
Heat, Glare, Radiation and Fumes: No changes to the existing permitted facility site
plan, equipment, or land use is proposed in this application.
Cultural Resources
Two Class III (pedestrian) surveys and one Class I Resource Inventory have been
conducted in the vicinity of the 598 -35 -BV well pad over a period of four years. The
findings have all been previously recorded and evaluated as officially not eligible for
listing on the National Register of Historic Places. No surface disturbance is proposed
in this application and no impact to Cultural Resources is expected as a result of this
proposal.
Reclamation Plan
The Temporary Produced Water Management System occupies a portion of the
existing SKR- 598 -35 -BV well pad and no surface disturbing activities are proposed
in this application. The Temporary Produced Water Management System would be in
operation at this location until such time as a permanent Produced Water
Management Tank Facility could be made operational.
When this location is no longer required to support Chevron's produced water
management and disposal needs, all equipment would be removed and that portion of
the well pad occupied by the Temporary Produced Water Management System would
be utilized, along with the rest of the location for drilling or completions. The pumps
and filters would be reused and relocated to the permanent Water Management Tank
Facility. The tanks would either be removed from the site for disposal or reused at
another location as the case may be.
Interim reclamation measures have already been implemented on the existing SKR -
598-35-BV well pad, and all soil piles and slopes have been seeded for stabilization.
Stormwater and erosion controls are currently in place and are monitored at regularly
scheduled intervals per Chevron's Stormwater Management Plan. The site is
monitored regularly for noxious weeds and the application of herbicides and/or other
methods of weed control are used as necessary on and around the existing site.
Final reclamation would occur at the end of the productive life of the future
producing wells drilled at the SKR- 598 -35 -BV well pad in accordance with Colorado
Oil and Gas Conservation Commission 1000 Series Rules, Reclamation Regulations.
Adherence to Garfield County Land Use Code
The proposed amendment would comply with all applicable standards set forth in the
Garfield County Unified Land Use Resolution Article VII, Divisions 1, 2 and 3 and
Division 8 §7 -810, Additional Standards Applicable to Industrial Use.

Compliance with Zone District Use Restrictions, Article VII, §7 -101:
The proposed amendment to Resolution 2009 -41, SUP 18908, is consistent with the
approved land use and is an allowed use within the Gentle Slopes and Lower Valley
Floor (RLGS) subdistrict of the Resource Lands Zone District. This proposal would
not change the purpose or intended use of the facility as permitted.
Compliance with Comprehensive Plan and Intergovernmental Agreements,
Article VII, §7-102:
The subject property is situated in Study Area 5 of the Garfield County
Comprehensive Plan. The approved land use and the proposed amendments to that
land use generally conform to the Goals and Objectives 4.0 Commercial and
Industrial Uses section of the Comprehensive Plan. This section states that the County
will encourage the development of a diversified industrial base for the County which
recognizes environmental and social impacts of industrial uses. The proposal to
extend the current permit term would allow time to upgrade the facility with tanks,
vapor recovery and technologies that would minimize potential emissions, decrease
risk of spill and worker exposure, improve the viewshed, and limit the facility
footprint within the pad limits. This proposal would also eliminate the need to
increase the traffic impacts to County Roads 204 and 211 associated with the truck
and dispose alternative.
Chevron supports responsible development and makes every effort to limit any
conflict with other environmental and social values through communication,
cooperation, and the implementation of best practices.
Resource Lands — Gentle Slopes Zone District, Article III, §3 -213:
This proposal is compliant with the applicable portions of Article III §3 -213
Amendment of a Major Impact or Limited Impact Permit Approval, Article IV,
§4 -107:
This application will comply with all Garfield County permit amendment process
requirements.
Sincerely,
Julie Justus
