The complete reconstruction of Transmission Line 6670 consists of three phases: Phase 1: DeBeque Substation (Mesa County) to Una Substation (Garfield County) – permitted and construction began in Garfield County in 2022, with completion anticipated in 2024. Phase 2: Oil Shale Substation (Garfield County) to Ute Rifle Substation (Garfield County) Phase 3: Una Substation (Garfield County) to Oil Shale Substation (Garfield County) The existing Transmission Line 6670 must be rebuilt because it has reached the end of its operational life. The rebuilt Transmission Line 6670 will continue to operate at 69 kV and will be rebuilt to current design standards that include additional measures to reduce wildfire risk in accordance with Xcel Energy’s Wildfire Mitigation Plan. Xcel Energy developed a Wildfire Mitigation Plan in 2020 that identified eight 69 kV transmission lines to be rebuilt by 2025 as a part of its Major Transmission Line Rebuild Plan (Xcel Energy 2020). This Project is within a portion of one of the eight transmission lines identified to be rebuilt. This Project will mitigate wildfire risk by removing and replacing the existing aging infrastructure. Xcel Energy has filed an updated plan in June 2024 with the Public Utilities Commission for its 2025-2027 Wildfire Mitigation Plan, and regulators are currently reviewing the plan and will hold a evidentiary hearing in May of 2025 (State of Colorado Public Utilities Commission, 2024). This Location and Extent (L&E) Review application addresses the portion of the Project located within unincorporated Garfield County associated with only Phase 2 and Phase 3 of the reconstruction of Transmission Line 6670. Permitting for Phase 1 (DeBeque to Una) has been completed and approved and will not be addressed within this document. The approximate 24-mile rebuilt Transmission Line 6670 required for Phase 2 and Phase 3 will follow the current route connecting the existing Una Substation, located southwest of the Town of Parachute, to the existing Ute Rifle Substation, located east of the City of Rifle (Figure 1-1).

Location and Extent Review Application Application components XCEL ENERGY 10 BURNS & MCDONNELL 2.12 NARRATIVE DESCRIPTION Xcel Energy is proposing to rebuild the existing 69-kV Transmission Line 6670 between the existing Una and Ute Rifle Substations by replacing aging infrastructure while continuing delivery of economic, safe, and reliable electric service to customers in Garfield County. Transmission Line 6670 was originally constructed in the 1960s. Transmission Line 6670 has reached the end of its serviceable life and needs to be rebuilt. Due to ongoing growth and development in Garfield County since Transmission Line 6670 was constructed, Transmission Line 6670 generally along the existing route is preferred to alleviate potential impacts of alternate alignments on the environment, community, and residents in Garfield County. Additionally, Transmission Line 6670 will be rebuilt to current Xcel Energy and industry standards that include additional measures to reduce wildfire risk. Per Xcel Energy’s 2020 Wildfire Mitigation Plan (Xcel Energy 2020), the company is implementing measures, including the rebuild of major transmission lines such as 6670, to reduce the risk of fire ignitions caused by the operation of electric equipment, in order to minimize the potentially devastating impacts caused by wildfires. Xcel Energy has always worked to reduce the risks presented by wildfires. However, recent increases in the occurrence of severe weather events have impacted both the frequency and intensity of wildfires in Colorado. This has driven an increased focus on efforts and investments that can mitigate wildfire risk (Xcel Energy 2020). The reconstruction of Transmission Line 6670 began with the rebuild of approximately 8-miles of transmission line between the DeBeque Substation (Mesa County) and Una Substation (Garfield County). This phase of the reconstruction process was permitted separately in May of 2022 and construction is anticipated to be completed in early 2025 but is dependent on the release of an EA permit through the BLM. This proposed approximate 24-mile rebuild of Phases 2 and 3 of Transmission Line 6670 involves replacing all existing poles and cables (conductor and shield wires) between the existing Una and Ute Rifle Substations. Transmission Line 6670 provides a source of power for communities in Garfield County. The Project is needed to continue to provide power to these communities and maintain system reliability. The Transmission Line 6670 rebuild route begins at the Una Substation, located at Callahan Court and Stone Quarry Road, approximately 3 miles southwest of the Town of Parachute, and continues to the Ute Rifle Substation, located approximately 2 miles southeast of the City Rifle off Airport Road. The Una and Ute Rifle Substations will not be upgraded; the only construction activity that will occur within the substation boundaries will be pole replacement. The rebuilt Transmission Line 6670 will generally follow the existing route within Garfield County as shown on the Site Plan in Attachment Location and Extent Review Application Application components XCEL ENERGY 11 BURNS & MCDONNELL H. Minor re-routes are proposed in limited locations and will remain on parcels already crossed by the existing Transmission Line 6670, as shown on the Site Plan in Attachment H, Pages 21 and 26. The re-routes are proposed for the following reasons: to move Transmission Line 6670 from steep terrain to flatter topography, to accommodate emergency services at the nearby hospital, or improve access for operations and maintenance needs. Xcel Energy is in the process of obtaining additional easements for Transmission Line 6670 where needed, which will be recorded in Garfield County following execution by the landowners. The status of these easements is provided in Attachment B. The current ROW width of 30 to 50 feet for Transmission Line 6670 will be widened where possible to an average of 75 feet with some areas up to 80 feet (200 feet on one property due to terrain and conductor blowout) to accommodate design upgrades and to provide safe and reliable access for construction, operation, and maintenance. Existing and expanded ROW Easements will require vegetation management to create a safe working and operational space around the improved facilities. Reference the Site Plan in Attachment H and the preliminary Plan and Profile Drawings in Attachment I for more details. The following sections provide additional details about the Project. 2.12.a Tower Construction The rebuilt Transmission Line 6670 will follow the same route as the existing Transmission Line 6670, except for the minor reroutes noted above. The rebuilt Transmission Line 6670 will be constructed with steel transmission monopoles and strung with new conductor. Optical ground wire will be added to improve communication between substations and assist in preventing lightning strikes. Pole details are provided in Attachment J. Table 2-1 provides a description of the existing and proposed poles. Topography, span length, and adjacent land uses influence the necessary height of transmission poles. A table displaying changes to the existing pole heights is provided in Attachment K. Table 2-1: Descriptions of the Existing and New Poles in Unincorporated Garfield County Characteristic Existing Poles New Poles Additional Details Color and Material Brown wood Brown/Rust weathered steel Steel poles comply with industry design standards and are fire hardened Location and Extent Review Application Application components XCEL ENERGY 12 BURNS & MCDONNELL Characteristic Existing Poles New Poles Additional Details ROW Width 30-50 feet Up to 80 feet (200 feet one property due to terrain and conductor blowout) Additional ROW Easement will be needed based on transmission line design requirements to provide sufficient clearance to existing buildings and/or to reduce the number of poles, as well as to provide access for construction and maintenance Height of Poles 40-65 feet, 50 feet on average 55-105 feet, 75 feet on average Increased height is needed to comply with current design standards Number of Poles 362 249 Rebuilding Transmission Line 6670 to current industry design standards will reduce the total number of poles required Access Required Ground access for maintenance Ground and helicopter access for construction, ground access for maintenance A helicopter may be used where ground access is difficult to avoid disturbance and creation of new roads Additional Easements Existing easements currently under review Permanent easements of up to an additional 30 feet for Transmission Line 6670. Temporary easements will be needed for ground access for construction, staging areas, pulling/ tensioning sites, and helicopter fly zones. Some of the existing easements date back to the1920s Location and Extent Review Application Application components XCEL ENERGY 13 BURNS & MCDONNELL 2.12.b Construction Methods Construction of the Project will occur in phases and will include the following activities: Construction access development and vegetation clearing; Equipment mobilization and material delivery; Hole auguring and foundation construction; Pole placement; Conductor stringing; Removal of existing poles and conductor; Revegetation of temporary disturbance areas. Access road improvements, grading, set-up of Temporary Construction Easement (TCEs) areas, and vegetation removal will be required prior to construction. Proposed access routes will allow construction crews and vehicles to access Transmission Line 6670 pole locations and TCEs. TCEs will be used to stage construction equipment and materials including construction trailers, cranes, and steel poles. TCEs are also necessary for pulling/tensioning sites that are used to string wire through new structures. There are 52 proposed pulling/tensioning TCEs proposed within Garfield County. One staging area TCE is proposed within Garfield County and will be permitted separately from this L&E application through the County’s Temporary Use Permit (TUP) process. Material deliveries from the nearest staging area to the ROW Easement will be made either by truck along the temporary access routes or by helicopter flying along the ROW Easement. Material storage and fly yards are depicted in Figure 1-1. Vegetation management within the existing and expanded ROW Easement will be required prior to, or in conjunction with, construction. Trees and vegetation growing within and near the ROW Easement pose a potential risk to Transmission Line 6670 by causing downed transmission lines, power outages, and wildfires. Vegetation management crews prevent the risk of these occurrences by implementing various types of treatment including removing, pruning, and/or mowing vegetation and applying approved herbicides to treat vegetation to allow safe operation of Transmission Line 6670. Depending on current levels of vegetation encroachment and ROW Easement needs, the extent of vegetation management will vary along the rebuilt ROW Easement. Location and Extent Review Application Application components XCEL ENERGY 14 BURNS & MCDONNELL Following civil work, holes will be augured for transmission poles. Once holes are augured, the poles will be set and backfilled. Some poles may require foundations that are set in the augured holes with a concrete enforced steel cage. Transmission poles will be placed using a crane or helicopter (limited to Phase 3). Poles will be transported via truck to the installation locations where a crane will lift the poles into place. Alternatively, helicopter installation involves assembling the poles in a material staging area, then transporting the poles via helicopter to installation locations to be lowered into the hole or onto a foundation. Additionally, some existing poles will be removed by helicopter depending on terrain and access. The existing poles will be either flown or driven to a staging area for off-site disposal. There are advantages to using a helicopter for installation because it permits access to areas that are not feasible for vehicle ground access, minimizes construction impacts due to erosion and disturbance, and improves construction efficiency. Any areas requiring helicopter construction methods will follow Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) safety requirements such as temporary evacuation of residences located near places where work will occur. Xcel Energy and their construction contractor will coordinate with the FAA and County during helicopter operations and obtain any required permits for helicopter use. Xcel Energy and the construction contractor will provide residents with prior notice should temporary evacuation be required. Following setting of Transmission Line 6670 poles, conductor wire will be strung using a temporary pulley system that is attached to the insulators. Pulling/tensioning sites are required at specific angles so the conductor wire can be pulled in line with the poles, remaining in alignment. Once the conductor is in place, the existing poles will be removed by crane or by helicopter, depending on terrain and access, and the Project will be energized. Throughout construction, wind erosion control best management practices (BMPs), including the application of water or other dust palliatives, will be implemented as required. Following construction, all temporary work areas within the ROW will be restored to a condition reasonably similar to the pre-construction condition or as provided by agreement with the impacted landowner. Xcel Energy’s Revegetation Plan and Weed Management Plan are included in Attachment L. 2.12.c Height of Towers and any Increase in Height from Existing Towers A comparison chart of the differences between existing and proposed pole heights is included in Attachment K. 2.12.d Visual Mitigation The presence of the existing Transmission Line 6670 has created a visual impact. The Project will rebuild the existing Transmission Line 6670 to update its materials and bring Location and Extent Review Application Application components XCEL ENERGY 15 BURNS & MCDONNELL it into compliance with current industry design standards. Accordingly, it is not anticipated that the Project will negatively impact the character of the surrounding area or create new significant visual disturbances different in kind from the existing impacts for several reasons: (1) the new Transmission Line 6670 route will be rebuilt within the existing ROW Easement except for the minor re-routes described above; (2) the total number of poles will be reduced from 362 to 249 and (3) the updated materials for the new Transmission Line 6670 poles and their corresponding current design standards will minimize negative visual impacts. While some of the new poles will be taller than the existing poles, their overall appearance will not materially change or substantially increase the extent of the existing visual impact to the area because they will be weathered steel to blend in with the surrounding landscape. Temporary visual disturbance may occur during construction of the Project due to the need for temporary access roads, the presence of construction vehicles and active work areas, and the use of cranes and helicopters for pole installation. Vegetation removal is not anticipated to be of an extent to create a visual impact to the region as a whole. After construction, the work areas and ROW Easement areas will be restored. 2.12.e Visual Modeling and Photo Simulation Visual simulations are included in Attachment M. 2.12.f Access Information Proposed construction access routes will allow construction crews and vehicles to safely access Transmission Line 6670 pole locations, pulling/tensioning sites, and material staging areas. Access to the existing and new pole locations will be required during construction in the form of temporary access routes to remove old poles and install new ones. Some temporary access will be required only for crews to walk in and access the pole locations with light machinery. Existing public and private roads will be utilized during construction, operation, and maintenance of the Project. Permanent and temporary access permissions through private property for Project construction, operation, and maintenance are being obtained from landowners by Xcel Energy. Included in the proposed construction access routes are existing public frontage roads along I-70 within Garfield County. Where road improvements are needed for Project construction, operation, and maintenance, Xcel Energy will secure the necessary permits to comply with County regulations including grading, stormwater, and erosion control permits. A Drainage Memo is included in Attachment N. A detailed Grading Plan outlining the locations of proposed temporary access and the improvements needed will be provided prior to construction, as required. If new access points to public roads are required, Xcel will secure the necessary permits from Garfield County, the appropriate municipality, or the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT), as required. Location and Extent Review Application Application components XCEL ENERGY 16 BURNS & MCDONNELL 2.12.g Temporary Construction Easements Xcel Energy plans to utilize temporary staging areas for the delivery, storage, and distribution of materials to support the Project. The primary storage yard (Rising Tides) and any additional storage and or helicopter fly yards to support the Project within Garfield County will be permitted separately from this L&E application, through Garfield County’s TUP process. The staging areas will be used for a maximum of 6 months. Materials for the Project rebuild will be delivered to the staging areas during construction and transported to the ROW Easement either by flat-bed truck or helicopter (Phase 3). Materials that may be staged include poles and reels of conductor and shield wire. Equipment that may be stored at the staging areas includes backhoes, bucket trucks, and crane trucks. During construction, personnel pick-up trucks may be parked at the staging areas during the day. The staging areas will be in use during the typical construction workweek; 7 days per week and 12 hours per day. 2.12.h Traffic Information During construction, lane or road closures may be required to allow crews and vehicles to safely access Transmission Line 6670 pole locations. When road closures are required, Xcel Energy will secure the necessary permits to comply with local jurisdiction’s regulations and will supply necessary traffic control plans. The use of roadways owned and managed by Garfield County is not currently planned for this Project. Helicopters will fly over local roads depending on helicopter flight paths for Project construction. Road closures will be intermittent and temporary and will occur when a helicopter crosses over the road while carrying material loads. Closure signage will be installed ahead of construction to notify road users. During construction, flaggers will control traffic based on ground-air communications and minimize closures to periods only necessary for the helicopters to safely cross the roadways. Typical closures are less than 5 minutes per flight over the roadway. Final flight paths and traffic control plans will be based on the final selection and contracting of the helicopter vendor. A final fight plan and traffic control plan will be provided to Garfield County prior to construction. 2.12.i Construction Duration and Timing The Project is anticipated to be divided into two segments for construction. The segments are: Location and Extent Review Application Application components XCEL ENERGY 17 BURNS & MCDONNELL Phase 2: Oil Shale Substation to Ute Rifle Substation Phase 3: Una Substation to Oil Shale Substation Construction of both segments is scheduled for 2024-2025, pending permit approvals.

Location and Extent Review Application Statement Addressing Review Criteria in Section 4-111.C XCEL ENERGY 18 BURNS & MCDONNELL 3 STATEMENT ADDRESSING REVIEW CRITERIA IN SECTION 4- 111.C Section 4-111.C of the Code establishes Review Criteria for applications for a L&E Review as follows: The Planning Commission shall determine whether the project is in general conformance with the Comprehensive Plan. Section 3.1 and Chapter 4 describe how the Project generally conforms with the Garfield County Comprehensive Plan 2030, as amended February 26, 2020. 3.1 CONFORMANCE WITH GARFIELD COUNTY COMPREHENSIVE PLAN The vision of the Garfield County Comprehensive Plan is to manage growth to promote thriving communities and a diverse economy while protecting wildlife and maintaining the natural environment to protect Garfield County’s western heritage. (Garfield County 2020a, Chapter 2, Vision for Garfield County). Aside from the transmission pole foundation footprint, land uses in areas under and around Transmission Line 6670 will remain unchanged. Thus, the location of the Project will preserve the quality of the natural environment and preserve the County’s rural and western heritage. Additionally, the Project will remove and replace aging infrastructure with current materials and rebuild Transmission Line 6670 to current industry standards that include an additional measure to mitigate wildfire risk (i.e., steel poles replacing wood), which will reduce risk to the natural environment. Optical Ground Wire (OPGW) will be added to improve communication between substations and assist in preventing lightning strikes and to communicate any potential defects on the line with Xcel Energy’s control centers. Rebuilding the existing Transmission Line 6670 to current industry standards will provide for continued delivery of safe and reliable electric service to customers in Garfield County and western Colorado. A detailed narrative describing how the Project conforms to the Garfield County Comprehensive Plan 2030 sections, goals, and objectives is provided below in Section 4.0. Location and Extent Review Application References to the Garfield County Comprehensive Plan 2030 XCEL ENERGY 19 BURNS & MCDONNELL 4 REFERENCES TO THE GARFIELD COUNTY COMPREHENSIVE PLAN 2030 The Garfield County Comprehensive Plan 2030 outlines key policies and strategies that support the County’s vision for 2030 (Garfield County 2020a). The Vision for Garfield County is dedicated to managing and directing growth to dedicated Urban Growth Areas (UGAs) and other areas that can accommodate growth cost effectively, in order to create thriving communities while promoting a diverse, sustainable and healthy economy, protecting wildlife, maintaining or improving the quality of the natural environment, and preserving the County’s rural and western heritage (Garfield County 2020a). The following sections outline how the Project supports specific components of the Garfield County Comprehensive Plan 2030. 4.1 CHAPTER 2 FUTURE LAND USE Chapter 2 of the Comprehensive Plan outlines five major themes to support future land use in Garfield County. One theme focuses on development in UGAs and 3-Mile Areas of Influence, which are preferred locations for municipality expansion. According to the Garfield County Future Land Use Map, the Project falls within the UGA surrounding the City of Rifle (Garfield County 2020b). Xcel Energy is coordinating with the City of Rifle on permitting for the portion of the Project located in the City of Rifle. Each community within the UGA is expected to extend services and infrastructure to existing and future developments. Xcel Energy is coordinating with these municipalities on the portions of the Project located within each. The Project falls within the following future land use designations: Commercial, which is intended to serve a regional market. Residential High where criteria for determining density will be based on the degree of public benefit. Residential Medium High, which may include small farms, estates, residences, and clustered residential subdivisions. The character of the Project matches that of similar development that may occur within these future land use designations. Further, the Project supports future development in the area by upgrading the existing electric infrastructure to ensure safe and reliable service. Location and Extent Review Application References to the Garfield County Comprehensive Plan 2030 XCEL ENERGY 20 BURNS & MCDONNELL 4.2 CHAPTER 3, SECTION 4 – ECONOMICS, EMPLOYMENT, AND TOURISM The vision of Chapter 3, Section 4 of the Garfield County Comprehensive Plan 2030, emphasizes economic development in and around County population centers. The Colorado State Demography Office (CSDO) projects that from 2017 to 2040 the county's population will increase by an average of 1,287 persons per year. This is a 55% increase from the annual average between 2001 and 2017. The CSDO projections highlight important planning considerations concerning where and how to accommodate future growth, and how to ensure that public infrastructure and services will accommodate this growth (Garfield County 2020a). By replacing and strengthening the existing aging infrastructure and ensuring continued reliable energy service to Garfield County, the Project supports the growth of industrial, commercial, and residential uses in the surrounding areas. 4.2.a Policy 2 – Enhancing the Tourism Industry The tourism industry is an important part of the regional economy and is enhanced by open space, scenic vistas, public trails, and recreational opportunities. Rebuilding Transmission Line 6670 in the existing ROW Easement will not create any new negative impacts to open space, scenic vistas, public trails, and other recreational opportunities but will preserve these elements within Garfield County. 4.2.b Policy 3 – Visual, Traffic, and Environmental Impacts Visual, traffic, and environmental impacts of new or expanded industrial development upon tourism, quality of life resources, and community character were considered, as discussed, below. The Policy 3 strategy is to ensure that impacts from industrial development are adequately mitigated to minimize negative impacts on tourism, quality of life resources, and community character. 4.2.b.1 Visual Section 2.12.c of this application details the anticipated visual impacts of the Project and associated mitigation measures. Because the Project involves replacing the existing Transmission Line 6670 along the same ROW Easement corridor with fewer poles on the landscape than the existing Transmission Line 6670, it is not anticipated that the Project will result in any new negative visual impact to the surrounding community. Also, while some poles will be taller, the total reduction in the number of poles associated with Transmission Line 6670 will result in a visual impact that is not materially different than the existing Transmission Line 6670. Furthermore, the Transmission Line 6670 poles will be weathered steel material designed to blend with the surrounding landscape. Visual simulations are provided in Attachment M. Location and Extent Review Application References to the Garfield County Comprehensive Plan 2030 XCEL ENERGY 21 BURNS & MCDONNELL 4.2.b.2 Traffic Traffic impacts from Project operations are not expected because the Project will not generate trips in excess of those already needed for maintenance of the existing Transmission Line 6670 or emergencies. Planned maintenance will occur along the proposed Transmission Line 6670 at the same frequency as it does for the existing Transmission Line 6670. No operational impacts to daily traffic flows are anticipated by the completed Project. During construction, there will be temporary disruptions to traffic from equipment and material deliveries accessing Transmission Line 6670. As discussed in Section 2.12.f, if roadway traffic controls are determined to be necessary, Xcel Energy will submit any required Traffic Control Plans to the County. 4.2.b.3 Environmental Impacts The approximate 19.21-mile area which the Project will traverse in unincorporated Garfield County includes planned unit development and rural zones. Transmission Line 6670 will be rebuilt to current industry design standards that include additional measures to reduce wildfire risk and will use the existing Transmission Line 6670 ROW Easement corridor and access routes, where possible. It is favorable to replace and improve Transmission Line 6670 along the existing ROW Easement corridor rather than create entirely new impacts in new locations. The Project avoids creating new impacts to the area because it replaces the current Transmission Line 6670 along the existing ROW Easement, with only minor reroutes as discussed above. The Project mitigates impacts to landowners by replacing the existing Transmission Line 6670 so that it is less vulnerable to wildfire damage, thereby increasing the overall reliability of the electric system. Wildfires pose a significant threat to communities and this Project will proactively reduce ignition risks. Xcel Energy will obtain any required environmental permits and approvals prior to construction, and any required environmental mitigation measures will be implemented. As discussed in Section 1.1.f, Xcel Energy has applied for a BLM ROW grant amendment, and an Environmental Assessment is being prepared for that segment of the Project. 4.2.c Policy 4 - Economic Resiliency and Diversity Policy 4 aims to strengthen the County's economic resiliency for employment and income generation by continuing to diversify the economy (Garfield County 2020a). Several strategies associated with this policy focus on encouraging growth and expansion of existing industries within Garfield County. The Project will not only revitalize and strengthen the electric infrastructure within the County, but the line’s 69- Location and Extent Review Application References to the Garfield County Comprehensive Plan 2030 XCEL ENERGY 22 BURNS & MCDONNELL kV capacity will meet the future demand of development within the County well into the future. 4.2.d Policy 5 - Locations that Possess Physical Features and Community Facilities and Services Policy 5 encourages commercial and industrial development in areas with appropriate community facilities and services (Garfield County 2020a). The Project will continue to provide electric service to the same area as the existing line, the line will also be rebuilt to ensure reliable service through modern design to communities it serves. 4.3 CHAPTER 3, SECTION 5 – RECREATION, OPEN SPACE AND TRAILS The vision of Chapter 3, Section 5 of the Garfield County Comprehensive Plan 2030 is to ensure open spaces, recreational trails, and parks are available throughout the county. Policy 2 supports the protection of public access to rivers, streams, and public lands along with the preservation of valuable outdoor recreation and open space lands. The Powerline Trails Act (Act) was passed by the Colorado legislature in 2022 to help raise awareness and create opportunities for Public Entities, defined in the Act as “the state, a local government, or a district” to co-locate public recreation trails within Transmission Corridors (as defined in the Act). The General Assembly sought to encourage, facilitate, and accelerate development of powerline trails within Colorado while recognizing that the co-location of such trails with transmission lines needs to occur with safety in mind. Xcel Energy does not build, own, or maintain public recreation trails and its transmission line easements do not provide Xcel Energy the right to conduct such uses within the easement area. When Xcel Energy seeks to site a new transmission line or expand an existing transmission line within a local jurisdiction, Xcel Energy’s role with respect to powerline trails under the Act is to (1) notify local governments of the potential for construction of a powerline trail within the Transmission Corridor, and (2) help inform Public Entities of the guidelines under which a powerline trail can safely co-locate within the Transmission Corridor. Xcel Energy has not yet developed or compiled the information contemplated by the Act for this Project. Nevertheless, Xcel Energy has a long history of working with local governments who wish to co-locate public recreation trails within its Transmission Corridors and will be happy to address any thoughts, questions, or interest Garfield County may have in potential future powerline trails related to the Project.

The Project will be constructed along the existing Transmission Line 6670 alignment within the County, reducing new impacts to surrounding land use and resources. Xcel Energy will implement any required mitigation measures to protect natural resources, as required by the BLM or other environmental permits for the Project. 4.4.a Policy 2 - Avoid Disturbance and Mitigate Impacts Policy 2 discusses the need to avoid disturbance to wildlife habitat and mitigate potential negative impacts that cannot be avoided. Project construction may impact nesting raptors if construction takes place during their breeding seasons. If Xcel Energy constructs the Project during raptor breeding season, raptor nest surveys will be conducted prior to construction to determine whether active nests are present near the Project. Additionally, seasonal restrictions on construction activities will reduce disturbance to birthing big game animals and animals with dependent young. Any other required wildlife restrictions will be incorporated into construction planning based on BLM and Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW) guidance. Xcel Energy has been coordinating with CPW and discussions with the organization are ongoing. Correspondence from Kirk Oldham, Area Wildlife Manager, dated August 3, 2022 providing comment on the Project is included in Attachment P. Potential impacts to wildlife habitat will be temporary and limited to the construction phase. In areas where grading is necessary, Xcel Energy will revegetate the area after construction is complete to a condition similar to its pre-construction condition; the Project's Revegetation Plan is included as Attachment L. Because the Project involves rebuilding the existing Transmission Line 6670 almost entirely in place, it is not anticipated that the Project will result in new, permanent, adverse impacts to wildlife or wildlife habitat. 4.4.b Policy 3 – Agency coordination Xcel Energy is coordinating with CPW regarding strategies to avoid, minimize, and/or mitigate adverse effects to wildlife and wildlife habitats. Any response or concurrence Xcel Energy receives from CPW will be shared with the County.

Dear Ms. Cave: I am writing to you on behalf of Public Service Company of Colorado, a Colorado corporation conducting business as Xcel Energy (“Xcel Energy”) regarding the above-captioned Project and related Location & Extent Review (“L&E”) application. Consistent with your prior discussions with my colleague Mr. Gil McNeish, in relation to other recent transmission line rebuild projects within Garfield County and the accepted applications for those projects, this letter summarizes the general characteristics of the current Project and Xcel Energy’s authority to file the L&E application, as well as the rationale for non-applicability of certain general submittal requirements found in Garfield County’s Land Use and Development Code (“LUDC”), specifically, Article 4, Division 2., Section 4- 203 B., Sub-section 1.a – c. and Sub-section 3. b. The L&E application seeks approval from the Garfield County Planning Commission for the rebuild of approximately 24 miles of an existing 69 kV transmission line between the Una and Ute Rifle Substations, known as the 6670 Transmission Line. Approximately 19.11 miles of the Project are located within unincorporated Garfield County. Like other recent transmission lines that required replacement, the existing 6670 Transmission Line was constructed in the 1960s and is being rebuilt to replace aging infrastructure and continue delivery of reliable electric service to customers in Garfield County and the surrounding areas. Additionally, the Project is part of Xcel Energy’s Wildfire Mitigation Program which is a critical component of Xcel Energy’s ability to continue safely delivering service to its Garfield County customers. Ms. Kelly Cave, Assistant County Attorney Garfield County Attorney’s Office May 28, 2024 Page 2 The Project will primarily be constructed within Xcel Energy’s existing easements except for minor reroutes discussed in the L&E application. Xcel Energy may also be expanding the existing easements to accommodate upgraded design and safety standards for electric transmission lines. Xcel Energy is providing this letter summarizing its authority to file the L&E application and the non-applicability of certain general LUDC submittal requirements to the L&E application. Consistent with prior applications, Xcel Energy will not be requesting a waiver of these submittal requirements, and it is my understanding the L&E application will not be deemed incomplete by the County for failing to include information required by the general submittal requirements discussed in this letter. With respect to the submittal requirements in LUDC Sub-sections 4-203.B.1.a. – c. and Sub- section 4-203.B.3.b., Xcel Energy’s approach and reasoning are as follows: 1. Sub-Section 4-203.B.1.a. - c. Letter signed by all landowners affected by the Project consenting to submission of the application . Response – LUDC Sub-section 4-203.B.1.a requires that if “the Applicant is not the owner of the land, or is a contract purchaser of the land, the Applicant shall submit a letter signed by the owner consenting to the submission of the application.” Because Xcel Energy is the beneficiary of easements within a Right-of-Way (“ROW”) corridor for the existing transmission line, it already holds a recognized property interest in the land for which the Project is proposed. Accordingly, Xcel Energy does not require the consent of the fee owners to submit the L&E application for any Project development that occurs within Xcel Energy’s existing easements. As mentioned above, the Project includes minor re-routes from the current alignment of the existing transmission line, and the Project proposes widening Xcel Energy’s existing easements on certain parcels to meet updated safety and design standards for electric transmission lines. On properties where reroutes and/or easement expansion is contemplated, Xcel Energy is actively negotiating with the affected landowners to acquire the necessary property interest for the Project. Xcel Energy has provided a list of landowners affected by the Project in Attachment B of the L&E application, which also includes the status of necessary easement acquisitions. Xcel Energy strives to acquire all necessary easements through negotiations with landowners. If those negotiations are unsuccessful, however, Xcel Energy does have the right to exercise the power of eminent domain to acquire the property interests necessary for the Project. Because of that right, and the unique circumstances associated with public utility projects of statewide concern such as this Project, Xcel Energy has the authority to file the L&E application without the fee landowner’s consent. Accordingly, Xcel Energy’s L&E application will not include letters of consent from those landowners who have fee title interest in the land for which the Project is proposed. Xcel Energy is, of course, willing to accept Ms. Kelly Cave, Assistant County Attorney Garfield County Attorney’s Office May 28, 2024 Page 3 as a condition of approval a requirement that prior to starting any Project construction activities on a parcel, Xcel Energy will provide the County with evidence that it has obtained all requisite easements for development of the Project on that parcel. 2. Sub-Section 4-203.B.3.b. A list of mineral estate owners affected by the Project . Response – LUDC Sub-section 4-203.B.3 states as follows: “If an application requires mailed notice, the application shall include …. b. A list of mineral estate owners in the Subject Site, their name, and the mailing address for each owner or lessee.” According to Table 4-102, Common Review Procedures and Required Notice, mailed notice is required for Location and Extent Review applications. Under LUDC Sub-section 4-101.E.1.b.(4), an applicant shall provide written notice to owners of mineral interests in the subject site in accordance with C.R.S. § 24-65.5-101, et seq. (“Surface Development Notification Act”). The Surface Development Notification Act provides that not less than 30 days before the date scheduled for the initial public hearing by a local government on an application for development, the applicant must send a notice of that hearing by certified mail to mineral estate owners—defined as owners or lessees of the mineral estate under the property which is the subject of the application. The definition of an “Application for Development” under the Surface Development Notification Act covers a wide range of surface development land use approvals, but certain development activities are expressly exempt from that definition. One exemption includes applications with respect to utility electric lines such as Xcel Energy’s transmission line for the Project. Thus, due to the nature and scope of the Project, the Project is exempt from the statutory notice requirements of the Surface Development Notification Act. Accordingly, Xcel Energy’s L&E application will not include a list of mineral estate owners and lessees. Xcel Energy appreciates Garfield County’s interest in the Project and collaboration on the L&E application process. Please contact me if you have any questions or need any additional information.

PRACTICAL LOCATION: West from the Mitchell Creek Substation to the Rifle-Ute Substation, Rifle-Ute Substation to DeBeque Substation, and Hopkins Substation to Basalt Substation ZONING: Primarily Rural (R), Resource Lands, Gentle Slopes/Lower Valley Floor, Public Lands (P) and one Planned Unit Development (PUD) TYPE OF APPLIGATION: Location and Extent COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: Multiple Future Land Use Designations including Urban Growth Areas, Resource Production/Natural, Residential Low, Residential Medium High and lndustrial I. GENERAL PROJECT DESCRIPTION Xcel Energy is proposing three line rebuild projects throughout the County. General alignment mapping of the transmission lines and project summaries were provided at the pre-application meeting and are attached. Outlined below are brief descriptions of the three projects: Mitchel to Rifle-Ute: Originally Built in the 1940's - 1960's, approximately 25 miles, steel H frame structures, helicopter use is likely. Rifle-Ute to DeBeque: Originally constructed in the 1960's, approximately 32 miles, use of a variety of structures including single pole weathered steel or brown fiberglass self- supporting or guyed structures, helicopter use may be required. Hopkinsto Basalt: Originallyconstructed in 1909with upgrades inthe 1990's, 11 miles, H frame, monopole, and 3-pole dead end weathered steel or brown fiberglass self-supporting or guyed structures. Helicopter access is likely. STAGING AREAS _ HELICOPTER USE The project is part of Xcel Energy's Wildfire Mitigation Program. Most alignments will utilize existing right-of-way/easements. Some minor realignments may be implemented and would require acquisition of new right-of-way/easements. Creation of staging areas was discussed and subsequent to the meeting preliminary information on potential staging areas was provided. Most are located directly adjacent to the transmission line alignment on property already associated with the projects. Where staging areas are separate for the transmission line alignment additional Land Use Change Permitting may be required. Helicopter use for staging areas needs to be addressed and likely will require additional meetings with Staff to determine if additional permitting is required. Helicopter use raises questions regarding noise and safety considerations. RIGHT-OF-WAY, OWNERSHIP, PUBLIC NOTICE Documentation of right-of-way/easement and as appropriate other authorizations or agreements for the rebuild will be a key component of the application submittals and will include review by the County Attorney's Office. The County Attorney's Office will also be essential in reviewing compliance with the public notice requirements including mailing to adjacent property owners within 200 ft. and mineral rights owners on the surbject properties. It is highly recommended that prior to formal application submittal the Applicant's research, mailing lists and legal description for the project be reviewed with Staff and the County Attorney's Office. Atl owners of property on which the transmission line will be rebuilt will also be noticed. The Public Notice publication and posting as well. Publication is in the Rifle Citizen Telegram (one time publication required). Posting should be placed in location where the alignment crosses a public right-of-way such as County Roads and in other locations where visible from a public right-of-way. Given the length of the projects, staff recommends that the Applicant provide in the Application submittals a map showing proposed locations for posting notice signs, for review by Staff. GENERAL NOTES County Staff has determined that the Location and Extent Review is the appropriate review process for the re-build project and is consistent with State Statutes. Please advise us of ) any changes in p¡ans or project descriptions as that may affect the determination and/or require updates to the pre-application summary and related information. Xcel Energy plans to meet with the Board of County Commissioners to provide them with updates and information on the rebuild projects with a meeting currently scheduled for April 4th. The Location and Extent Application will also be referred to adjacent municipalities and Towns for their comments. II. REGULATORY PROVISIONS APPLICANT IS REQUIRED TO ADDRESS .

Public Service Company of Colorado (PSCo), a subsidiary of Xcel, is the owner and operator of 4,7!8 miles of transmission lines in Colorado. Transmission Line 6584, a 69-kilovolt (kV) that runs from the Shoshone Substation in Garfield County to the Cameo Substation in Mesa County. This transmission lines, originally constructed in the L940s through the L960s, is approaching the end of its serviceable life. The proposed Rebuild of Transmission Line 6584 (6534) involves replacing all existing structures and cables (conductor and shield wires) between the Mitchell Substation to the Ute-Rifle Substation, approximately 25 miles (Project). Currently, transmission Line 6584 has a permanent ROW width of 30-50 feet and provides a source of power for communities ín Garfield County. The Project ís needed to continue to provide safe and reliable power into those communities that are the major users along the route. This project will involve construction act¡v¡t¡es to replace 25 miles of the 69 kV single-circuit transmission line 6584, which transects BLM, state, and private lands. The alignment for 6584 would be located largely within the existing alignment. Minor exceptions may occur should any topographic or sensitive resources be identified; the new alignment could be moved east or west of the existing alignment within public lands to avoid or reduce resource impacts. The existing 30 to SO-foot-wide permanent ROW would be increased to a 75-foot RoW and the line would be upgraded from the existing 69 kV rating to a 1-15 kV rating (Project Area). The components of the Project include: a a Approximately 25 miles of transmission line 6584 will be rebuilt. The existing 30 to S0-foot ROW will be increased to a 75-foot ROW' The existing wood H-frame transmission line structures will be replaced with steel H-frame structures. The total number of structure locations is anticipated to be similar to the existing structure locations. Access to the ROW will be primarily from existing public ROWs, such as state or county roads. ln certain locations, access will be across public or private land with explicit permission from the landowner.

Public Service Company of Colorado (PSCo), a subsidiary of Xcel, is the owner and operator of 4,718 miles of transmission lines in Colorado. Xcel is proposing a rebuild of the Rifle-Ute to De Beque 69 kilovolt (kV)Transmission Line 6670 (Transmission Line 6670). Transmission Line 6670 consists of five segments: 7. Rifle-Ute to Oil Shale 2. Oil Shale to Parachute 3. Parachute to Grand ValleY 4. Grand ValleY to Una 5. Una to De Beque Transmission Line 6670 was originally constructed in the 1960s, with some structures installed in the 1940s. Many structures were replaced in 2010 as part of a refurbishment project. The line has reached the end of its serviceable life. The proposed 32-mile rebuild of Transmission Line 6670 (Project) involves replacing all existing structures and cables (conductor and shield wires) between the Rifle-Ute and De Beque substations. The 6670 Transmission Line has a right-of-way (ROW) width of 30 to 50 feet. The transmission line provides a source of power for communit¡es ¡n Garfield and Mesa Counties. The project is needed to continue to transfer power in these communities that are the major users along the route and to maintain system reliability. This project will involve construction activities to replace and upgrade 32 miles of the 69 kV single-circuit transmission line. The line is planned to continue to be operated at 69 kV but will be designed to accommodate 115 kV for future needs. The Project alignment would be located largely within the existing alignment. Minor exceptions may occur should any topographic or sensitive resources be identified. The existing 30 to SO-foot-wide permanent ROW would be widened to 75 feet to accommodate design uPgrades. The components of the Project include: . Approximately 32 miles (1.6 miles on BLM land)of Transmission Line 6670 would be rebuilt. r The existing wood single pole transmission line structures would be replaced with a family of structures that consist of single pole weathered steel or brown fiberglass self-supporting or guyed structures. The total number of structures and their locations are anticipated to be similar to the existing structures' o Access to the ROW would primarily be from existing public ROWs, such as state or county roads. ln certain locations, access would be across public or private land with explicit permission from the landowner. Helicopter access may be required during construction of the lines in steep terrain. A helicopter would travel to the construction staging area to land and collect construction materials, including structures.

GENERAL PROJECT DESCRIPTION This is an update of previous Location and Extent (L&E) preapplications regarding this rebuild. At the preapplication conference, the applicant represented that the rebuild in this area will be in two sections now. Each will have its own laydown yards which may involve helicopter operations. The L&E 2 Xcel Energy is proposing three line rebuild projects throughout the County. General alignment mapping of the transmission lines and project summaries were provided at the pre-application meeting and are attached. Outlined below are brief descriptions of the three projects: Mitchel to Rifle-Ute: Originally Built in the 1940’s - 1960’s, approximately 25 miles, steel H frame structures, helicopter use is likely. Rifle-Ute to DeBeque: Originally constructed in the 1960’s, approximately 32 miles, use of a variety of structures including single pole weathered steel or brown fiberglass self-supporting or guyed structures, helicopter use may be required. Hopkins to Basalt: Originally constructed in 1909 with upgrades in the 1990’s, 11 miles, H frame, monopole, and 3-pole dead end weathered steel or brown fiberglass self-supporting or guyed structures. Helicopter access is likely. STAGING AREAS – HELICOPTER USE The project is part of Xcel Energy’s Wildfire Mitigation Program. Most alignments will utilize existing right-of-way/easements. Some minor realignments may be implemented and would require acquisition of new right-of-way/easements. Creation of staging areas was discussed and subsequent to the meeting preliminary information on potential staging areas was provided. Most are located directly adjacent to the transmission line alignment on property already associated with the projects. Temporary Use Permits should be applied for the storage/laydown and helicopter pads. The preapplication conference for these was held concurrently with this update conference. RIGHT-OF-WAY, OWNERSHIP, PUBLIC NOTICE Documentation of right-of-way/easement and as appropriate other authorizations or agreements for the rebuild will be a key component of the application submittals and will include review by the County Attorney’s Office. The County Attorney’s Office will also be essential in reviewing compliance with the public notice requirements including mailing to adjacent property owners within 200 ft. and mineral rights owners on the subject properties. It is highly recommended that prior to formal application submittal the Applicant’s research, mailing lists and legal description for the project be reviewed with Staff and the County Attorney’s Office. Information related to the exemption of this application from any notice provisions should be provided as early as possible for review by the Attorney’s Office. All owners of property on which the transmission line will be rebuilt will also be noticed. The Public Notice publication and posting as well. Publication is in the Rifle Citizen Telegram (one time publication required). Posting should be placed in location where the alignment crosses a public right-of-way such as County Roads and in other locations where visible from a public right-of-way. Given the length of the projects, staff recommends that the Applicant 3 provide in the Application submittals a map showing proposed locations for posting notice signs, for review by Staff.

This line generally crosses rural undeveloped land. The new poles will be within the existing transmission easement and accessed via existing private or public roads and existing and new access routes. The intent of this Plan is layout Xcel’s approach to line decommissioning and reclamation of disturbed areas. Line Decommissioning Decommissioning of the line involves disconnecting the lines (overhead lines between poles) and removal of above ground poles to support the lines including guy wires and the wood pole structure. This process is typically as follows: • Erosion control measures per the Stormwater Management Plan (SWMP) permit will be implemented prior to construction activity. • Once the line is deenergized, overhead lines are disconnected via a bucket truck. • These lines will be removed during the decommissioning phase but the actual sequencing of such varies based on other factors that will be determined at the time of removal. • Cross arms may be removed once the lines are disconnected or once the pole is laid on the ground. • The soil at the base of the pole will be hand excavated approximately 1 foot deep with the excavated soil sitting immediately adjacent the excavation. • The grounding wire at the base of the pole will be removed. • Guy wires will be disconnected from the guy wire anchors. The below grade anchors will be abandoned in place. • The bucket truck will secure the pole to the elevated bucket. • The pole will be cut roughly 8 inches below the surrounding ground surface and placed horizontally on the ground or onto a truck in a controlled manner to be removed from the site. • The soil excavated from around the pole will be replaced into the excavation and over the void left by the pole removal. The base of the pole below grade will remain in place covered with soil. • SWMP maintenance and inspections will continue during construction in all on-going and post- construction areas until permit closure. 2 Staging Area Staging area impacts for this project area expected to be minimal. Staging areas in this flat area typically follow the same sequence of impacts and restoration: • Erosion control measures per the SWMP are implemented in compliance with permit conditions. This typically includes installation of a vehicle tracking control (VTC) which may be the only excavation disturbance associated with this construction. • Security fencing, if deemed necessary, will be installed. • Equipment, material, Conex, and trailer deliveries will begin. • The staging yard(s) will continue to be utilized as a place of material storage, staging, and assembly as well as a location for workers to park personal vehicles to minimize vehicle traffic along the Xcel ROW and crossing private property. • Typically, on flat staging yards, expected on this project, no further excavation is required. • After construction, remaining material, equipment, trailers, Conex, and fencing will be removed from the site. • Soil decompaction may be performed based on the agreement with the landowner. • Seed and mulch, unless agricultural crop land, will be placed per the conditions of the SWMP permit • SWMP inspections, maintenance, will continue until the site vegetation has been restored, SWMP maintenance and inspections will continue during construction in all on-going and post-construction areas until permit closure, excepting disturbed areas that will be utilized for crop production the following growing season. Reclamation While there are multiple construction types for this project, i.e. temporary pad grading, access grading, pole base excavation, etc., they are all fairly similar. Note: as this project is crossing mostly flat ground, therefore pad or access grading is expected to be isolated and very limited. Below is the general sequential approach to minimize disturbance and promote revegetation across the project. This will have to be slightly customized to each construction type and site conditions. 1. Prior to the start of construction, a surveyor will stake pole locations, off-sets, temporary construction areas, and other locations of importance where field delineation is beneficial. 2. Appropriate Xcel Energy staff, line construction contractor, foundation contractor, earthwork contractor, and erosion control contractor will meet on-site to review the delineated construction impact limits. 3. Flagging or paint used to delineate where perimeter erosion control measures should be placed based on disturbance limits defined by Xcel Energy construction team (item 2 above). 4. Xcel Energy erosion control plan developer, Xcel Energy Environmental Analysist, or erosion control install contractor may collect multiple representative topsoil soil samples for analysis along the transmission line. This analysis would focus on the potential for possible soil amendments (primarily nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium) during seeding. 3 – 6 samples are expected based on the varying soil conditions along the line. 5. Erosion control contractor team will install perimeter erosion control measures, typically construction fence, boundary fence, sediment control logs, rock logs, and vehicle tracking control per the requirements identified in the State Stormwater Management Plan (SWMP). 3 6. Only as necessary for project, trim and remove vegetation for off-site disposal that will directly impact site grading or access. Xcel Energy to utilize trimming as much as practicable to keep root structure in place. 7. In areas where grading is required, strip topsoil (assume top 4 inches of soil) for reuse on site. Topsoil to be segregated from other material. Topsoil to be placed along access or in other areas adjacent grading. Topsoil may be transported from immediate work area due to space constraints. Topsoil that is stockpiled for more than 14 days will be seeded for temporary stabilization. Topsoil stockpiles that are to remain dormant for more than 14 days are to have side slopes no steeper than 1H:1V. 8. Topsoil stockpiles may be placed on undisturbed adjacent ground. In this event, Xcel Energy will place a separation fabric, i.e. Mirafi 140N or like, to provide a physical indicator as to where the stockpile ends and native ground begins. Xcel Energy has had success with this approach as it reduces unwanted disturbance of native ground and allows an undisturbed but lightly ‘compressed’ topsoil layer to bounce back once topsoil and separation fabric is removed. 9. Once permanent cut slopes are graded, they will be covered in topsoil within 14 days and seeded and mulched within another 14 days. This will allow permanent cut/fill face revegetation to commence as soon as possible. Work areas where active construction is anticipated, i.e. flat pads, are not to be topsoil covered until heavy construction work has ceased. Once heavy construction of permanent pads has ceased, topsoil cover is to be completed within 14 days and seeding and mulching to follow within another 14 days. 10. Subgrade excavation material, from grading or pole excavation, will be spread on the access road, exported from the site for off-site disposal, or stockpiled in immediate or near-by work area for future use, particularly in areas with temporary grading impacts that are to have grades restored. Like the topsoil above, subsoil that is stockpiled on undisturbed ground is to have a separation fabric below the stockpile to clearly distinguish between native grade and stockpile material. This will minimize disturbance of the native grade and allow this compressed native grade to bounce back once stockpile and separation fabric is removed. 11. Once construction is completed at a site for permanent grading impacts, i.e. conductor pull/tensioning pads and access roads, the site soil is to be ripped to loosen the subgrade due to soil compaction during construction. Following decompaction, topsoil is to be placed at a depth of 4 inches in a loose manner ready to accept seed. Unlike most topsoil requirements, rock of various gravel sizes less than 6 inches diameter may remain in the topsoil layer. 12. Once construction is completed at a site for temporary grading impacts, the site rough grades are to be reestablished and the subgrade soil is to be bucket compacted to a ‘firm’ condition. Following compaction, topsoil is to be placed at a depth of 4 inches in a smooth but loose manner ready to accept seed. Unlike most topsoil requirements, rock of various gravel sizes less than 6 inches diameter is expected in the topsoil layer and is indicative of native topsoil in this area. 13. Soil amendments are to be added per soil analytic recommendations via mechanical broadcast or hydraulic application. Site seed mix is to be spread at appropriate rates given application type, hydraulic, drill, or hand broadcast. The amendment and seed application will vary substantially based on disturbance type site access and soil conditions. In cases of hydraulic application, the seed mix may be applied with the liquid amendment or hand broadcast but in no case is seed to be mixed and applied with mulch. 14. Final erosion control cover for seeded areas will vary based on access to disturbance areas. Truck or tracked access areas will have either straw crimp mulch (on grades less than 10 percent and low rock 4 content soil) or a high quality hydraulically applied mulch, i.e. Flexterra HP-FGM or like, on grades exceeding 10 percent. Xcel Energy generally does not support using erosion control blankets on this project due to concerns about reduced blanket to soil contact and due to longer life blankets having a high synthetic content with leads to a wildlife entrapment hazard. 15. Xcel Energy will change erosion control inspection schedule from weekly to monthly inspections once initial stabilization measures (seeding and mulching) have been completed. If there are areas of concern identified during the monthly inspection that need to be addressed (i.e. erosion or lack of revegetation growth), the revegetation contractor will return to the site to address identified issues. 16. Per the required State (SWMP) and local (Grading Permits), Xcel Energy will continue to maintain structural erosion control measures across the project until no longer necessary. These will primarily include down-gradient sediment control logs but may include other control measures. These measures will be removed when no longer required and seed will be hand broadcast in areas where removal has exposed or disturbed less vegetated soil. 17. Once site has met plant density cover requirements, Xcel Energy will perform a final post-construction site visit to document final conditions and then Xcel Energy will close SWMP permit with the State. NOTES: • Xcel Energy’s ability to stabilize disturbed areas with vegetation is dependent on many factors within Xcel Energy control. Unfortunately, favorable moisture conditions for germination and continued growth are beyond Xcel Energy control and a key determinate for revegetation. Xcel Energy anticipates adequate revegetation will take multiple years. Xcel Energy frequently returns to sites multiple times that are in the vegetation growth phase to address areas of erosion and reseed and/or mulch as necessary to promote vegetation stabilization. • Xcel Energy hires a separate third-party company to perform the erosion control installation, maintenance, and revegetation as well as another third-party company to perform regular erosion control inspections. These companies have long standing relationships with Xcel Energy. With this approach, Xcel Energy has trained the installation company and inspection company to meet Xcel Energy’s standards and to stay in compliance with state and local permit conditions which improve the restoration trajectory. Xcel’s practice is to continue inspection and maintenance, both performed by third party contractors, until site revegetation is established. Access for the post construction inspection and maintenance will be over prescriptive rights, landowner allowed access, and the transmission line easement. Seed Mix: A seed mix is proposed in the Noxious Weed Mitigation Plan and will be reviewed during construction in consultation with suppliers and appropriate County representatives, if requested.

Introduct ion Public Service Company of Colorado (PSCo), a Colorado corporation conducting business as Xcel Energy (Xcel Energy), is proposing to rebuild the 6670 UNA to UTER overhead transmission line in Garfield County, Colorado. This Noxious Weed Management Plan (Plan) is based on typical practices and not on a site weed survey. This Plan has been prepared to support the expected noxious weed management activities for the line rebuild within Garfield County. Section 2. Noxious Weed Management Requirements When present in large numbers, noxious plant species have had considerable impacts to the quality and integrity of natural ecosystems. Noxious weed species can alter fire ecology, successional ecosystem processes, and ecosystem function of the ecosystems they invade. Some species have had such serious economic and biological impacts that their control and management is mandated under Colorado State law (i.e., List A species). Because of the adverse environmental effects of noxious weeds, federal, state, and local governments have issued various orders and regulations regarding noxious weeds. The following are some of the regulations guiding noxious weed management. 2.1 Presidential Executive Order 13112 —Invasive Species Executive Order 13112, Invasive Species, was issued on February 3, 1999, to prevent the introduction of invasive species; provide for their control; and minimize the economic, ecological, and human health impacts that result from invasive species. This order directs federal agencies to prevent the introduction of invasive species, control and monitor invasive species, and restore native species and habitats that have been invaded (Federal Register 1999). 2.2 Colorado Noxious Weed Act As defined by the Colorado Department of Agriculture (CDOA), noxious weeds are plants that reduce agricultural productivity, lower real estate values, endanger human health and well-being, and damage scenic values (CDOA 2021a). The Colorado Noxious Weed Act §§ 35-5.5-101 through 119, C.R.S. as amended, states that an organized and coordinated effort must be made to stop the spread of noxious weeds. Rules pertaining to administration of the Act include a noxious weed list that designates and classifies noxious weed species into categories for immediate eradication (CDOA 2021a): • List A contains 25 species of noxious weeds targeted for eradication. If individuals or populations of A List species are found, the local governing body must provide the State Weed Coordinator with mapping that includes information on location and density of the infestation. • List B contains 38 species that are targeted for eradication, containment, or suppression based January 2023 Page 2 upon a given local governing body’s management plan. • List C contains 16 species for which the Commissioner of Agriculture, in consultation with the state noxious weed advisory committee, local governments, and other interested parties, will develop and implement into state noxious weed management plans designed to support the efforts of local governing bodies to facilitate more effective integrated weed management on private and public lands. In addition to the three lists, the state maintains a noxious weed species “Watch List”. It contains 19 species that CDOA has determined pose a potential threat to the agricultural productivity and environmental values of the lands of Colorado. It is for advisory and education purposes only and is intended to encourage the collection of information needed to determine if the species should be listed as a noxious weed. 2.3 Garfield County Noxious Weed Management Garfield County adopted a Noxious Weed Management Plan to reduce the prevalence of noxious weeds and their negative impacts. The Garfield County Noxious Weed List includes 41 weeds. The County has a Weed Advisory Board to support the County in yearly determinations regarding weed list changes. The County’s principles of weed management are incorporated into the pre- and post-construction weed management activities, as appropriate. These include: • Prevention • Cultural Practices • Physical/mechanical methods • Biological Control • Chemical Control The term “noxious weed” includes species listed as noxious by the Colorado Department of Agriculture (CDOA 2021a) and additional plants listed as weeds within the County. Plant nomenclature for noxious weeds in this report follow the CDOA website. Section 3. Noxious Weed Control : Pre -construction Prior to construction, Xcel Energy will utilize the following steps to minimize noxious weed propagation: • Training of crews as to how surface disturbance creates a more favorable environment for noxious weeds if seed stock is in the area, • Delineating areas with boundary fence, see SWMP Plans and report, or a similar physical barrier to limit unnecessary surface disturbance, • Cleaning of equipment to avoid bringing non-native soil or vegetation onto the site as these may contain unwanted seed stock. Equipment brought to the site must be free of clean of soil or vegetation from another site. Thorough power washing of wheels, tracks, undercarriage, and excavation equipment will be performed prior to site arrival. Equipment that leaves the site, i.e. for crew transportation or equipment repair, and then January 2023 Page 3 returns to the site without leaving pavement does not need to be rewashed. • A State Stormwater Management Plan (SWMP) permit that covers this construction activity will be obtained by Xcel Energy and the weed management steps will work in conjunction with the SWMP. Section 4. Noxious Weed Control : During - Construction Construction activities will expose soils in areas that have been previously disturbed and limited areas that have not been previously disturbed. This disturbance creates a potential for the introduction and spread of noxious weeds in the project area. Noxious weed species that occur in and adjacent to disturbed areas of the project have the potential to spread into areas impacted by placement of new poles, use and construction of access roads for construction equipment, and use of staging areas. The goal of the plan is to minimize the spread of noxious weeds due to the proposed construction activities. By implementing measures intended to minimize the spread of noxious weeds during construction and minimizing the establishment of new noxious weed populations post-construction, the proposed project should minimize new and help reduce existing noxious weed infestations. The activities during construction will, at a minimum, include: • Removal and stockpiling of topsoil for replacement in immediate area of excavation disturbance as this will create a more favorable soil strata for revegetation. • Leaving ‘drive & crush’ areas alone to rebound naturally. This assume the topsoil layer and associated root structure remains in place but has only been compressed by construction activity. • Crews will continue to be diligent about minimizing the construction impact to avoid topsoil disturbance. • Hand or drill seeding of appropriate seed mix has been applied along with mulch. • The SWMP permit compliance will continue during construction and the weed management steps will work in conjunction with the SWMP. Section 5. Noxious Weed Control – Post -Construction Post-construction activities are based on the assumption that the site grades and topsoil have been restored and appropriate seed mix has been applied. Post-construction weed control activities will commence in the year following completion of construction as that is when weed seed germination and growth is more apparent. NOTE: Weed control will only be addressed in areas disturbed by construction and will not address weed infestations outside of the disturbance area even if they are within Xcel Energy’s ROW. Post-construction weed management priorities are based on the threat noxious weed species found in the project area pose to the overall goal of maintaining the health of the ecosystem. Generally, List A species are the highest priority because they are often the most aggressive species with limited distribution. List B are next priority species and List C species are generally widespread and are not prioritized. January 2023 Page 4 The best technique for controlling most established noxious weeds is an integrated approach of mechanical, biological, and chemical controls. Mechanical control usually involves mowing, hand-pulling, or cutting. Biological control is the use of organisms (usually insects, but also livestock) that are deliberately introduced to an area to control weeds. Chemical control involves the application of one or more herbicides at the appropriate time of the year (all herbicides should be applied by a certified applicator according to the manufacturer’s directions). Where chemical controls are recommended, Xcel Energy and its contractors work to minimize the use of chemicals that are harmful to beneficial insects in their vegetation management practices controlling shrubs, trees, and weed species within their rights-of-way and properties. This includes eliminating the use of neonicotinoids, a class of neuro-active insecticides, which have been found harmful to all invertebrate populations including bee populations and other native pollinators (Xcel Energy Undated). The year following construction, two noxious weed treatments will be undertaken: 1. Early season (May-June) for cool-season noxious weeds (e.g., redstem fillaree, cheatgrass, bindweed), 2. Late season (July-August) for the warm-season noxious weeds (e.g., thistles and knapweeds). Areas of infestations identified in these surveys will determine appropriate treatment and suppression methods. Noxious Weed Treatment Measures Xcel Energy’s noxious weed management contractor will implement noxious weed control measures in accordance with existing regulations and local requirements. Post-construction control measures can include one or more of the following methods (that may be implemented during restoration activities): • Treatment methods will be based on species-specific and area-specific conditions (e.g., proximity to water or riparian areas, agricultural areas, and time of year) with the County coordinator being notified prior to noxious weed eradication activities. If areas are not seeded until the following spring, Xcel Energy will alter weed treatment timing based on weed control best practices. • Mechanical methods rely on equipment that can be used to mow or disc weed populations. If such a method is used in areas to be restored, subsequent seeding will be conducted to re-establish a desirable vegetative cover that will stabilize the soils and slow the potential re-invasion of noxious weeds. • Discing or other mechanical treatments, that would disturb the soil surface within native habitats, will be avoided in favor of an herbicide application, which is an effective means of reducing the size of noxious weed populations as well as preventing the establishment of new colonies. January 2023 Page 5 • Seed selection will be based on site-specific conditions and the appropriate seed mix identified for those conditions. • Herbicide applications will be controlled to minimize the impacts on the surrounding vegetation. In areas of dense infestation, a broader application will be used and a follow- up seeding program may be implemented. Refer to the Garfield County Noxious Weed Management Plan for recommended control techniques for noxious weed species. 5.1 Seed mix Restoration will consist of re-contouring the disturbed areas around poles and staging areas per grading plans and reseeding the area with the following seed mix. The timing of subsequent seeding efforts will be based on the life of applied herbicides, if used. NOTE: This seed mix will be reviewed during construction and in consultation with supplier and appropriate County representative. Table 1.

Recommended Management and Mitigation Actions In addition to the specific management recommendations listed for each species in the Garfield County Noxious Weed Management Plan, the following mitigation measures are recommended (as appropriate) to minimize the spread of noxious weeds: • All construction equipment will remain in designated work areas. • The area of ground disturbance will be kept to the minimum necessary. • Minimize imported topsoil during construction. If importing is necessary, use certified weed-free soil. • All equipment will be thoroughly cleaned of soil, vegetation, and seed material before entering and exiting the study area. • All mulches and straw used at the site will be certified weed-free. • All disturbed areas will be seeded after construction. Seeding will consist of species listed in Table 1. Semi-Desert Loam Seed Mixture will be spread on disturbed ground around poles and staging areas, as appropriate. The seed mix will be reviewed after the weed survey and in consultation with suppliers and appropriate County representatives, as requested. • All seed mixes, soil, and other plant material used for revegetation will be free of noxious weed seeds, roots, and other propagules. • Only a Colorado-licensed Supervisor or Certified Operator will apply herbicides. • All herbicides will be applied in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. • Broadcast herbicide spraying will be limited to areas of project ground disturbance, around each existing and new pole, and at staging areas. Weed treatment around each existing and new pole will be limited to disturbance associated with this line rebuild. • The Garfield County Vegetation Manager will be notified prior to noxious weed treatments, as appropriate to the disturbance jurisdiction. • Applicable control measures (CMs) from the Stormwater Management Plan will be implemented.

This commitment includes replacing infrastructure reaching the end of its useful life. We plan to replace the 60-year-old 69-kilovolt (kV) transmission line between the Ute Rifle Substation and the De Beque Substation. The approximately 32-mile transmission line delivers critical energy to the Colorado River region but is more than 60-years- old and was originally built with wood poles. Due to natural weathering and the overall age of the poles and equipment, the line has reached the end of its useful life and must be replaced. The transmission line will be rebuilt to current industry standards that include additional measures to reduce wildfire risk. New infrastructure will improve electric service reliability to homes and businesses in the region and help meet the growing energy needs for years to come. When this project is complete, crews will initiate a different project to remove approximately 17.5 miles of old lines between the Bluestone Valley Substation and the Cameo Substation, which currently runs through De Beque Canyon. The Ute Rifle to De Beque rebuild project is part of a larger, multi-year effort to rebuild and upgrade vital transmission links between Glenwood Springs and Grand Junction. Project details • Approximately 32 miles of 69 kV line to be rebuilt to modern standards • Replace aged, wood structures with steel monopoles (see images to left) • Rebuild largely within existing right-of-way • Optical Ground Wire (OPGW) will be added to improve communication between substations and assist in preventing lightning strikes • In some cases, Xcel Energy may need to secure additional permanent easements to meet engineering and operational requirements, temporary easements for construction and property access, or amended and restated easements to better define the location of the existing easements on impacted properties INFORMATION SHEET COLORADO UTE RIFLE TO DE BEQUE TRANSMISSION REBUILD PROJECT OVERVIEW INFORMATION SHEET xcelenergy.com | © 2024 Xcel Energy Inc. | Xcel Energy is a registered trademark of Xcel Energy Inc. | 24-02-403 UTE RIFLE TO DEBEQUE REBUILD PROJECT COLORADO Project schedule • Public outreach: Winter 2024 through end of construction • Environmental and land use permitting will be completed in 2024 • Engineering, design, and easement negotiations will be completed in 2024 • Construction is scheduled to begin early 2025 and should be completed in 2026 • Contractors will use established access points for most construction activities; however, some areas cannot be reached by heavy vehicles so equipment will need to be placed by helicopter Outreach and communications Xcel Energy will work with landowners, local governments and the public throughout the process to permit and rebuild this important transmission line.

Xcel Energy está construyendo un futuro energético mejor y más limpio tomando medidas para crear una red de energía más inteligente y robusta, para un suministro de energía más seguro. Este compromiso incluye reemplazar la infraestructura que llega al final de su vida útil. Tenemos previsto sustituir la línea de transmisión de 69 kilovoltios (kV), construida hace 60 años, entre la subestación Ute Rifle y la subestación De Beque. La línea de transmisión de aproximadamente 50 km (32 mi) proporciona energía crítica a la región del río Colorado, pero tiene más de 60 años y fue construida originalmente con postes de madera. Debido a la intemperie natural y a la antigüedad general de los postes y equipos, la línea ha llegado al final de su vida útil y debe reemplazarse. La nueva infraestructura mejorará la fiabilidad del servicio eléctrico para los hogares y las empresas de la región, y ayudará a satisfacer las crecientes necesidades energéticas de los próximos años. Una vez esté completo este proyecto, los equipos iniciarán un proyecto diferente para eliminar aproximadamente 27 km (17.5 mi) de líneas antiguas entre la subestación Bluestone Valley y la subestación Cameo, que actualmente atraviesa el cañón De Beque. El proyecto de reconstrucción de Rifle Ute a De Beque es parte de un esfuerzo mayor de varios años para reconstruir y actualizar los enlaces de transmisión vitales entre Glenwood Springs y Grand Junction. Detalles del proyecto • Aproximadamente 50 km (32 mi) de línea de 69 kV que se reconstruirán según los estándares modernos • Sustitución de las estructuras de madera envejecidas por monopostes de acero (vea las imágenes a la izquierda ) • Reconstrucción en gran medida dentro del derecho de paso existente • Se añadirá un cable de tierra óptico (Optical Ground Wire, OPGW) para mejorar la comunicación entre subestaciones y ayudar a prevenir los rayos • En algunos casos, es posible que Xcel Energy necesite obtener servidumbres permanentes adicionales para cumplir con los requisitos de ingeniería y operativos, servidumbres temporales para la construcción y el acceso a la propiedad o servidumbres modificadas y reformuladas para definir mejor la ubicación de las servidumbres existentes en las propiedades afectadas INFORMATION SHEET COLORADO RECONSTRUCCIÓN DE LA LÍNEA DE TRANSMISIÓN DE UTE RIFLE A DE BEQUE DESCRIPCIÓN GENERAL DEL PROYECTO INFORMATION SHEET xcelenergy.com | © 2024 Xcel Energy Inc. | Xcel Energy is a registered trademark of Xcel Energy Inc. | 24-02-413 RECONSTRUCCIÓN DE LA LÍNEA DE TRANSMISIÓN DE UTE RIFLE A DE BEQUE COLORADO Cronograma del proyecto • Difusión al público: invierno de 2024 hasta el final de la construcción • Los permisos medioambientales y de uso del suelo se completarán en 2024 • Las negociaciones de ingeniería, diseño y servidumbre se completarán en 2024 • Está previsto que la construcción comience a principios de 2025 y debe estar finalizada en 2026 • Los contratistas utilizarán puntos de acceso establecidos para la mayoría de las actividades de construcción; sin embargo, algunos vehículos pesados no pueden llegar a algunas áreas, por lo que el equipo deberá ser transportado en helicóptero Difusión y comunicaciones Xcel Energy trabajará durante todo el proceso con propietarios de terrenos, gobiernos locales y el público durante todo el proceso de autorización y reconstrucción de esta importante línea de transmisión.

Spruce St. Grand Junction, CO 81501 RE: File Number LAEA-05-22-8903 Xcel Energy – De Beque to Una Transmission Line 6670 Rebuild Dear Mr. Hofman, Thank you for the opportunity to provide comments on the proposed Electric Transmission Line Rebuild Project, Segment 1 from De Beque to Una substations (Project). Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW) has a statutory responsibility to manage all wildlife species in Colorado. This responsibility is embraced and fulfilled through CPW's mission to perpetuate the wildlife resources of Colorado and provide sustainable outdoor recreation opportunities that educate and inspire future generations. CPW fulfills this mission by responding to requests for comments on wildlife impact reports, land use proposals, and consultations through public- private partnerships. CPW understands from the permit application material that Xcel will be replacing 8 miles of 69 kV electrical transmission line from the De Beque substation to the Una Substation with 3.4 miles in Mesa County and 4.5 miles in Garfield County. The Project is part of a larger subset of replacement efforts for a 32-mile line from the Rifle-Ute substation to the De Beque substation that was initially installed in the 1960s and has reached the end of its serviceable life. The replacement line will be operated at 69 kV but will be designed to expand the new structures to accommodate 115 kV in anticipation of future demands. Single-pole transmission line structures will be replaced with single-pole self-supporting or guyed structures depending on local topography. The work will be done over 6 months within an existing right-of-way along the original alignment that follows Highway 6; however, the current 30-50ft right-of-way will need to be widened to 75-110 feet to accommodate design upgrades and construction crews that include ground crews, truck support, and helicopter operations. Two staging areas are identified in the planning material provided and submitted to the respective counties in separate applications: an approximately 7.5–acre staging area in Garfield County and an approximately 15-acre staging area in Mesa County. Application material and design information is not yet available and have not been reviewed for those staging areas. The project proponents address construction erosion control BMPs and restoration efforts in a Restoration Plan included in the General Application materials. The project proponent has applied for a BLM ROW grant amendment, and an Environmental Assessment is being prepared for the Project. In reviewing the application material, the Project follows Highway 6 through scrub/shrub wildlife habitat that is near the I-70 Interstate Highway, a highly active railroad line, and the Colorado River Corridors. CPW commends the project proponent for following the existing alignment to minimize new disturbance and acknowledging wildlife in the area and timing stipulations that may be beneficial for sensitive wildlife species. CPW has identified that this project is located within the following CPW-mapped High Priority Habitats (HPH). High- priority habitats are home to species for which CPW has sound spatial data and scientifically backed Best Management Practices (BMPs). To protect those habitats for the species listed below, CPW recommends the following best management practices to avoid, minimize, and mitigate adverse impacts to elk and mule deer populations, sportfish, and raptors identified in the project area. ● Mule deer severe winter range and winter concentration area: no permitted or authorized human activities from December 1st to April 30th. o Severe winter range: That part of the overall range where 90% of the individuals are located when the annual snowpack is at its maximum and/or temperatures are at a minimum in the two worst winters out of ten. o Winter concentration area: This part of the winter range where densities are at least 200% greater than the surrounding winter range density during the same period used to define winter range in the average five winters out of ten. ● Elk Winter range and concentration area: no permitted or authorized human activities from December 1st to April 30th. o Severe winter range: That part of the overall range of a species where 90% of the individuals are located during the average five winters out of ten from the first heavy snowfall to spring green-up, or during a site-specific period of winter as defined for each DAU. o Winter concentration area: That part of the winter range of a species where densities are at least 200% greater than the surrounding winter range density during the same period used to define winter range in the average five winters out of ten. ● Sportfish Management Waters: Project activities are recommended to follow the best management practices for any new ground disturbance and avoid surface occupancy within 500 feet from the ordinary high-water mark of Sportfish Management Waters designated by CPW Aquatic Biologists. Ephemeral or intermittent streams are utilized as aquatic habitats during periods of flowing water and are included in this designation to avoid impacts on downstream habitats from chemicals, sediment, and other debris. o During construction and operations, the contractor should prioritize control erosion measures identified within the NPDES Permit to minimize off-site sediment transport. o Dust suppression should utilize fresh water only. o Follow the Noxious Weed Recommendation Plan included in the permit application that aims to treat topsoil stockpiles and materials at least biannually using a Colorado-certified herbicide applicator. In addition, the project proponent should spot treat as needed to prevent any weed communities from seeding. ● Active Raptor Nests: A specific location in which a pair of raptors have at least attempted to nest within the last five years. Any nest location that can be directly tied to courtship, breeding, or brooding behavior is considered active. A buffer zone extends .5 miles around a known active nest. Roost sites provide diurnal or nocturnal perches for raptors and are also protected by a .25-mile radius. Raptors and other migratory birds are protected from take, harassment, and nest disruption at both the state and federal levels. CPW recommends the following actions to protect raptors as they conduct their biological activities in the area. o A Nest survey be performed in each project area (half-mile radius) no later than two weeks before initiating construction for each project location to identify potential raptor and songbird nests, raptor perching, and foraging areas, and winter roosting areas. o No surface occupancy should occur within .5 miles of an active nesting site from November 15th through July 31st. o No surface occupancy should occur within .25 miles of a historical nesting site year-round. o No surface occupancy should occur within .25 miles from an observed roosting site. o Activity should cease if nest activity is observed at any time activity within .5 miles buffer of active or inactive nest sites. o Avoid helicopter activity from November 15 through July 31 to avoid conflicts with raptor activity. o Install bird deterrent devices to discourage nesting activities by osprey, eagles, and other birds on the newly installed transmission line structures. o Provide an alternative nesting site in the area to entice osprey to nest away from the transmission line structures. Reclaimed material from the decommissioned structures can facilitate a low-cost and minimal effort project that will benefit the project proponent, the community, and the local wildlife. Contact CPW to coordinate recommendations and resources such as the local Boy Scouts or organizations that may be interested in assisting with that work. Protecting large landscapes that support such a wide variety of wildlife species and habitats that they utilize can only be accomplished by partnering with other land users, conservation organizations, and agencies. Further coordination with BLM and CPW is recommended on the Environmental Assessment results to address further communications or actions. During construction activity, CPW recommends the following general BMPs that contribute to the protection of our wildlife resources. ● Workers should not be allowed to bring off-lease dogs to the location. ● Trash and debris should be removed daily. ● Lighting should be capped from above to help reduce night-sky light pollution which interferes with nocturnal wildlife behavior. ● Work to be conducted during winter daylight hours between 7:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. to minimize disturbance to wintering elk, deer, and other wildlife that utilize this area. ● CPW did not see evidence of a weed management plan and recommends establishing a formal weed management plan, which Garfield County may already have in place, to control and eliminate the spread of any noxious weeds in and around the area. ● All workers should remove any mud or debris and disinfect heavy equipment, hand tools, pumps and hoses, boots, and other equipment previously used in a river, stream, lake, pond, or wetland before moving the equipment to another water body. This is achieved by following the attached aquatic disinfectant protocols. o https://cpw.state.co.us/Documents/Research/Aquatic/pdf/Publications/Quate rnary-Ammonia-Compound-Disinfection-Protocols.pdf#search=disinfect Colorado Parks and Wildlife appreciates the opportunity to review this project application material and provide recommendations to avoid, minimize, and mitigate adverse impacts on wildlife.
