1. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This noxious weed inventory and management plan was prepared at the request of Summit
Midstream Partners (Summit) for their proposed Piceance Energy 08-13 Pad Connect pipeline
project. This is a relatively short pipeline project, approximately 2,145 feet (0.4 miles) in length. The
project is on private lands, in Section 8, Township 7 North, Range 93 West, in Garfield County,
Colorado. The proposed right-of-way (ROW) would be 50 feet wide with the pipeline being centered
15 feet from the southern edge of the ROW. A water line and a natural gas line would be co -located
within the pipeline trench.
Olsson Associates (Olsson) was retained by Summit to conduct pre -construction noxious weed
surveys and produce a plan to manage those weeds to fulfill requirements requested by Garfield
County's Vegetation Management department.
Both Garfield County's noxious weed list' and the State of Colorado's noxious weed list' were utilized
for Olsson's' survey efforts (see Appendix A and B). To summarize, our surveys found the following
State listed noxious weeds:
• 4 List B Species
o Houndstongue (Cynoglossum officinale) G
o Canada thistle (Cirsium arvense) G
o Bull thistle (Cirsium vulgare)
o Plumeless thistle (Carduus acanthoides) off ROW
• 2 List C Species
o Bulbous bluegrass (Poa bulbosa)
o Common burdock (Arctium minus) G
G= also a Garfield County noxious weed
1.1. Description of Analysis Area
The proposed ROW passes through a large, contiguous stand of mixed mountain shrublands,
dominated by oakbrush (Quercus gambelii), but with strong components of Utah serviceberry
(Amelanchier utahensis), snowberry (Symphorocarpos rotundifolia), and scattered mountain
sagebrush (Artemisia tridentata). The understory was very diverse, and was dominated by elk sedge
(Carex geyeri), Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis), and had the following species occurring in lesser
coverage; lanceleaf violet (Viola vallicola), American vetch (Viscia americana), blue-eyed Mary
(Collinsia parviflora), Baltic rush (!uncus balticus), waterleaf (Hydrophyllum capitatum), lupine
(Lupinus spp.), Oregon grape (Mahonia repens), death camas (Toxicoscordion venenosum), western
wheatgrass (Pascopyrum smithil), bluebells (Mertensia lanceolata) with orchardgrass (Dactylis

glomerata) occurring in higher densities along a small draw. Additional species occurred in lesser
coverage and amounts.
As mentioned, the western and eastern ends of the ROW occurred within mixed mountain shrubland
habitats. In the more middle section of the ROW, vegetation was had a stronger sagebrush
component, and there was an ecotone with montane meadow habitats. In the meadow, Kentucky
bluegrass, orchardgrass, and Baltic rush were dominant, with isolated patches of iris (Iris
missouriensis). At the eastern end of the ROW, vegetation was dominated by reclamation along an
existing pipeline ROW.

2. RESULTS OF SURVEY EFFORTS
Houndstongue was by far the most common noxious weed found along the route, but was widely
scattered and only occurred in very low densities (<1% cover), with a few small patches having higher
densities in the sagebrush/meadow areas, and in cattle loafing areas underneath the larger oakbrush
trees; in these areas cover of houndstongue approached 1%, but still the relative cover of this species
would be considered to be very low. Canada thistle occurred in very low densities (<1% cover) along
the draw.
Of note, is that to the north of the ROW there is a meadow system with cattle loafing and salting
occurring (see Figure 1). In this area of more persistent disturbance, there was a moderately sized
patch of plumeless thistle, and a smaller patch of bulbous bluegrass. While this area is about 60 -feet
north of the ROW, seeds from these weed species potentially occur in the ROW area, and there is a
high likelihood that these species will present themselves once ROW construction is complete.
At the existing pad site at the western end of the ROW, bull thistle was detected on the pad fill
slopes, but there was also large patches of Russian thistle (Sa!sola lberlca), and more houndstongue.
Russian thistle is not a listed noxious weed, but is an undesirable plant species.

3. WEED MANAGEMENT PLAN
As mandated by the Colorado Noxious Weed Act and the Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Act (and
in conformance with Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and Forest Service (FS) National Invasive
Weed Strategies), an operator shall control noxious weeds on lands they disturb during oil and gas
exploration and development, including well pads, facilities, pipelines, roads and any other disturbed
areas on private property (and on BLM and FS lands).
To meet the requirements of the Colorado Noxious Weed Act, the operator shall conduct prescribed
management techniques for noxious weeds included on one of three State weed lists: List A —
designated for statewide eradication; List B — managed to prevent further spread and, for selected
species, designated for eradication in Targe areas; and List C — of more localized concern, but for
which the State will provide education, research, and biological control assistance to jurisdictions
that choose to manage the species. The current State list is available in Appendix A.
If populations of List A species are present in the project area, every population shall be eradicated
prior to seed development. To stop the spread of List B species, populations of every species
designated for eradication in a particular county shall be eliminated prior to seed development.
Additionally, to meet reclamation objectives, the operator should eliminate or minimize those
noxious and invasive weeds designated as "undesirable species". Undesirable species include
redstem filaree and quackgrass, all List C species (e.g. halogeton [Halogeton giomeratus] and
cheatgrass [Bromus tectorum]), and invasive species that commonly colonize disturbed or reclaimed
land and impede or prevent establishment of desirable species (e.g. kochia [Kochia sieversiana, K.
iranica, K. scoparia] and Russian thistle [Salsola australis, S. iberica, 5. kali]).
Control of invasive species is a difficult task and requires on-going control measures. Care must be
taken to avoid negatively impacting desirable plant communities and inviting infestation by other
pioneer invaders. Weed management is best achieved by employing aggressive control early on, and
persistent control efforts over several growing seasons, including direct treatments, prevention
through best management practices, monitoring of treatment efficacy, and subsequent detection
efforts. Weed management is often limited to controlling existing infestations and prevention of
further infestations, rather than eradication, but through effective weed management practices
eradication can be possible in small to medium sized weed populations.
3.1. Prevention of Noxious Weed Infestations
This is the first and most important step in controlling noxious weeds. Early detection and proper
identification of new weed infestations are critical to any successful weed management plan.
Requirements:
a) Before entering the project area, all construction, heavy or off-road equipment and transport
(backhoes, trackhoes, dozers, blades, rollers, lowboys, equipment trailers, etc.) shall be power
washed to remove seeds, soil, and vegetative matter. Equipment shall be inspected by
Summit personnel and considered clean when seeds, soil, vegetative matter, and other debris
that could contain or hold seeds are absent. Remaining equipment such as pickup trucks,
SUVs, vans, water trucks, pipe trucks, etc. shall also be clean but do not require inspection

prior to entering the project area every time. Site inspections by Summit personnel will be
conducted to ensure vehicle cleanliness.
b) All proposed project areas shall be inventoried prior to ground -disturbing activities. If
noxious weeds are found, they shall be treated (if timing is appropriate) or removed (if plants
have formed seeds) prior to ground -disturbing activities to limit weed seed production and
dispersal. If the treatment timing is not appropriate for the weed species, ground -disturbing
activities may proceed.
c) All disturbed surfaces shall be promptly revegetated with certified weed -free seed per agency
policy. Exceptions may be granted under certain conditions, such as the use of non-invasive
non-native forbs when native forbs are unavailable or unlikely to succeed due to adverse
conditions. Also, non-native, non-persistent sterile grasses may be used to provide ground
cover for soil stabilization and weed suppression during temporary reclamation.
d) Topsoil stockpiles shall be promptly revegetated to maintain soil microbe health and prevent
weeds. Native or non-native, non-persistent sterile grasses may be used to seed stockpiles.
e) Straw, hay, or other mulch used in reclamation shall be certified weed -free.
Recommendations:
f) In situations where infestations of noxious weeds or other undesirable species are present
adjacent to a proposed project area, the adjacent infestations should be treated prior to
ground disturbance to reduce the potential for expansion into the project area.
g) If certified weed -free gravel pits become available in the county, the use of certified weed -
free gravel would be required wherever gravel is applied to disturbed surfaces.
h) Before entering BLM and private lands, all off road equipment should be power washed to
remove seeds, soil, and vegetative matter.
i) A new or small weed infestation should be treated intensely when found.
j) Noxious weed identification training should be provided by the operator to field -going
personnel to encourage early detection and rapid response.
k) Communication should be established between the operator and the BLM, FS and County
Weed Managers for reporting new infestations.
3.2. Inventory and Mapping
Maintaining accurate records aids in tracking weed infestations over time. Operators should create
and maintain inventory, mapping and treatment records.
Requirements:
a) The center points of List A and B weed infestations shall be marked with a GPS unit, or, GPS
lines or polygons along or around weed infestations.
b) A Noxious Weed Inventory record shall be completed each time a List A or 8 weed infestation
is inventoried.
Weed Plan, 08-13 Connect

June 1, 2014
c) Inventories for the presence of noxious weeds shall be conducted at least once early in the
growing season for all areas disturbed by oil and gas exploration and development. Weeds
shall be treated in an appropriate manner if found during inventories. Follow-up inventories
and retreatment during the same growing season may be necessary to provide additional
control and/or eradication.
3.3. Weed Control
After the weeds have been inventoried and mapped, they must be treated with the best available
weed control technique(s). Contact the appropriate County (or BLM Weed Manager) for information
on timing and treatment for each weed species. See Appendix C for contact information.
Requirements:
a) The operator shall implement the best available weed control technique(s) at the appropriate
times based on the life history of the weed species.
b) Only adjuvants and herbicides approved by the State of Colorado shall be used. Colorado
approves all herbicides and adjuvants registered with the EPA and registered for use in
Colorado.
c) A Pesticide Application record should be filled out each time pesticides are. The operator
should maintain these records for a minimum of three years.
d) Herbicide use shall follow application rates, restrictions and warnings listed on the label.
e) In situations where noxious weeds have escaped from the project area into adjacent sites, the
infested areas shall be treated to prevent further expansion into uninfested areas and
reinfestation of the treated area.
f) The operator shall use pesticide applicators licensed by the Colorado Department of
Agriculture.
Recommendations:
g) General weed control techniques can include:
• Mechanical — Mowing (should be done early in the season and often), tilling (cutting or
chopping roots below the ground surface), and hand digging or hand pulling. Mechanical
control is not acceptable for deep-rooted creeping perennial weeds in most cases.
• Biological — Releasing organisms (e.g., insects, bacteria, or fungi) known to be effective in
controlling specific weed species. This method does not provide 100% control and is most
effective when integrated with other weed control methods. Biological control is most
effective on large populations of weeds.
• Chemical —Applying herbicides. The proper use of herbicides at the optimum time can be the
most effective method for controlling persistent weeds, including perennial species. Not all
herbicides are equally effective on all weeds, nor can every herbicide be used in every
situation. Consult the appropriate County Weed Manager for the most effective herbicide to
use in each situation.

3.4. Long -Term Monitoring and Retreatment
Because many weeds have seeds that remain viable in the soil for many years, weed management
must be viewed as a Tong -term process and long-term commitment to the land.
Requirements:
a) Until final reclamation is achieved, disturbed areas shall be inventoried for the presence of
noxious weeds as needed, early in the growing season. Weeds shall be treated in an
appropriate manner if found during inventories.
3.5. Reporting
Summit should consider using a weed inventory, mapping and pesticide application data for tracking
weeds on private and public lands and for use in agency reporting.
Recommendations:
a) Annual weed reports should be submitted to the County Weed Manager no later than
December 1 of each year.
b) Reports should include weed species found (listed by common names), total acres infested
with weeds, total acres treated, and treatment methods.
c) Inclusion of an ArcGIS shapefile with the report that contains all points, lines or polygons of
weed infestations recorded with a GPS unit is encouraged.

These rates are based on drill seeding (i.e., 60 PLS per square foot), but if the site is to be broadcast
seeded, then double the seeding rate (120 PLS per square foot or lbs/acre). If noxious weeds appear
to be an issue, then you could withhold seeding in the Utah serviceberry and yarrow for one year to
allow for more effective weed management (spraying).
