TYPE OF APPLICATION — COUNTY PROCESS REQUIREMENT:
Special Use Permits processed via the Major Impact Review process (Well Pads & Pipelines)
Special Use Permit process via the Major Impact Review process (Water Storage Facility)
I. GENERAL PROJECT DESCRIPTION
a. Applicant (URSA Operating Company) proposes to extract natural gas that lies below
the surface of the Battlement Mesa Planned Unit Development (BMPUD).
b. The project includes the development of two well pads ("BMC A" and "BMC L" Pads),
a temporary water storage facility ("BMC F" Pad) and a network of co -located natural
gas and water pipelines in the PUD as shown on the draft site plan attached to this
summary. This development plan represents the second phase of the development of
well pads inside the Battlement Mesa PUD.
c. There is no compression proposed for this phase (or any phase) of the well pad
development.
d. The two proposed well pads and the temporary water storage facility are located on
different properties but with the same ownership. The Applicant shall be required to
submit separate applications for each location that will all be tracked together in the
same process as much as possible. There will be three separate applications.
Well Pads
e. The BMC A Pad will be approximately 2.74 acres and will have 24 gas wells with the
potential for 1 injection well. The BMC L Pad will be approximately 2.8 acres in size
and will have 33 gas wells. The well pads will have sound walls and sound mitigation
sufficient to mitigate noise levels to the light industrial levels at nearby homes and
churches. This the same level that was agreed upon for Phase 1.
f. The primary haul routes for the development of the two pads and the pipelines will be
as outlined below:
• The primary haul routes for all pads will start from the Parachute exit, generally
referred to as the Northern Haul Route, as requested by Garfield County and agreed
to during the Phase I approval process. This keeps the majority of the traffic,
especially heavy trucks, away from the intersection at the Kum & Go and out of the
central Battlement Mesa business area.
• The secondary haul route will be the "Southern Haul Route" from the West Parachute
exit and across Una Bridge. This route will be used when events within Battlement
Mesa require its use.
• BMC A will be accessed via CO 300 (Battlement Parkway) to CO 300W (West
Battlement Parkway) to CO 307 (River Bluff Rd).
2
• BMC L will be accessed via CO 300 to CO 300N (North Battlement Pkwy) to Spencer
Parkway.
• BMC F will be accessed via CO 300 to CO 300N to CO 300E (East Battlement Pkwy)
to CO 308 (Four Corners Rd) to CO 303 (Gardner Lane).
Pipelines
g.
The pipelines (co -located water and gas) proposed for this phase will be sized to
connect to the previously approved and installed gathering system (Phase I pipeline
and Tompkins pipeline). The pipelines will be comprised of relatively short sections
proximate to the well pads.
h. The gas / water pipelines will typically range in size from 8" to 12" gas lines and may
vary depending on the engineering requirements. Anticipated ROW widths are 25 ft.
permanent easement(s) for all associated pipelines/waterlines. The Applicant is in the
process of confirming the ownership of properties affected by the proposed pipeline.
A staff determination will need to be made whether the pipelines will require separate
Special Use Permit Applications, which will in part be based on the ownership
information.
The two proposed pipelines have separate locations and different ownerships. The
Applicant shall be required to submit separate applications for each location that will
be tracked together in the same process as much as possible. There will be two
separate applications.
Temporary Water Storage Facility
j. The Temporary Water Storage Facility proposed for the BMC F Pad will contain
approximately 60,000 bbls of water storage in approximately 100 above ground 600
bbl tanks. The BMC F Pad will be approximately 2.5 acres. It will have visual screening
per the surface Use Agreement and is located to be below the line of sight of
residences within Battlement Mesa. The Water Storage Facility will be temporary and
will be removed after 5 years. Once the tanks are removed the site will be reclaimed.
k. The Temporary Water Storage Facility is a typical and accessory use to extraction and
processing of natural gas operations. Consistent with previous review of ancillary oil
and gas support facilities within the PUD, a special use permit is being required. The
centralized nature of the proposed use further supports the requirement for a special
use permit.
Injection Well
I. The Applicant is proposing an injection well for waste water disposal on the BMC A
Pad. A PUD Text Amendment and Rezoning Application was submitted to the County
and is currently under review to allow for this use. The Text Amendment & Rezoning
Application includes the future BMC A Pad well site. If approved the PUD Amendment
3
would require a Special Use Permit for an injection well in the newly proposed PSRI
Zone District. Injection Wells are not explicitly included as a stand-alone use in the
1978 Land Use Code and because they are not included in the definition of
"Extraction", the PUD Amendment was required. A separate future application for the
injection well Special Use Permit would be required.

11. REGULATORY PROVISIONS APPLICANT IS REQUIRED TO ADDRESS
(DEVELOPMENT CODE / COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, STATE STATUTES, ETC.)
The County approved Resolution 82-121 on May 24, 1982 which provides the zone districts
and the uses permitted in each zone district within the BMPUD. "Extraction and Processing
of Natural Resources" is listed in each zone as a `special use'. Section 10.0 (SR
Supplementary Regulations) found on page 24 provides the process by which the special
use is to be administered. This is stated here:
4
`Where preceding general standards or the following supplemental regulations do not
adequately describe what is permitted or required, reference shall be made to the officially
adopted Garfield County Zoning Resolution of January 2, 1979, including the zoning
amendment, adopted October 15, 1979, (79-132) and to the officially adopted Garfield County
Subdivision Regulations of January 2, 1979, and amendments of October 15, 1979. '
As a result, the County shall require that in order to extract and process natural resources
(drill for natural gas, development pipelines, create temporary water storage facilities) within
the PUD, the property owner (or their designee) shall be required to render an application for
a Special Use Permit to the County. This application shall require the owner to demonstrate
that they comply with the standards / criteria found in the County's zoning code on January
2, 1979, including the zoning amendment, adopted October 15, 1979, (79-132). The process
for the review of this Special Use Permit application shall be that of the "Major Impact Review"
process in the County's Land Use and Development Code, as amended.
Further, the County will evaluate and permit each well pad, pipeline, and temporary water
storage facility separately; however, they may be submitted and processed under the Major
Impact Review process and tracked together.
A. Process
Based on this, the process for the SUP for each application will follow the process for a "Major
Impact Review" in Section 4-105 of the LUCD. That process is provided here for convenience
as it is found in Table 4-102 and highlighted. Additionally, a process flow chart has been
attached for your review.

RESOLUTION NO. 79-132
WHEREAS, on the 2nd day of January, 1979, this
Board of County Commissioners of Garfield County, Colorado,
adopted Resolution No. 79-1, concerning a Zoning Resolution
for the County of a arfield, State of Colorado; and
