Re-use/Recycle in Hydraulic Fracturing Operations
Re-use and recycling of produced water is an effective and efficient use of produced water as it precludes
the use and consumption of freshwater resources. As produced water is generated from existing wells, the
water is collected / transported to one of the Centralized E&P waste management facilities for further
treatment and potential re-use / recycling during hydraulic fracturing operations. The “finished” water
from the treatment facility has been treated to remove any residual hydrocarbon content that was not
separated at the well-head. After treatment, the treated water may then be “re-used / recycled” during
hydraulic fracturing operations where the water is pumped from a Centralized E&P waste management
facility to a series of remote storage ponds where the water is staged and ultimately re-used / recycled for
hydraulic fracturing operations. Hydraulic fracturing operations is a highly water intensive activity and
re-using / recycling produced water serves to protect and reserve freshwater resources.
Third Party Disposal Facilities
Third party disposal facilities are an option available to TEP for management and disposal of produced
water. However, because this option requires trucking to a distant commercial disposal facility, this is
typically considered to be a labor-intensive option, is not cost effective for TEP, and therefore, is not a
preferred option. There are six Third-Party, commercial disposal facilities that are locally / regionally
available to TEP operations (see Table 4). Typically, TEP would only use a third-party commercial
disposal facility for produced water disposal if our existing water treatment facilities were full (at
maximum capacity) and/or TEP’s permitted injection wells were incapacitated (not available) for some
reason.

Contaminated Soils
Occasionally, spills of productions fluids may occur during oil and gas operations that result in localized
impacts to soils on or near the well pad. All spills are immediately investigated by TEP Environmental
and Operations personnel. Contaminated soils are assessed to determine if they exceed regulatory
cleanup standards and require removal, treatment, or disposal. Characterizing potentially contaminated
soils is accomplished either by field-screening the impacted soils to determine relative hydrocarbon
concentrations, and/or by collecting samples of the impacted soils and sending the samples to an approved
commercial lab for analysis.
All contaminated soils exceeding regulatory cleanup standards are excavated and managed / disposed of
appropriately. If a spill incident is subject to agency reporting requirements, the appropriate agencies are
notified within the regulatory timelines. Impacted soils that exceed applicable cleanup standards are
typically excavated and taken to an off-site commercial disposal facility that is authorized to accept that
type of waste.
Sewage
Chemical toilets (i.e., porta potties) will be provided on site for personnel use during construction,
drilling, and completions operations. Porta potties will be emptied weekly by an approved sanitary waste
contractor and hauled to an approved sanitary waste disposal facility. Please see the Waste Handling
Table (Table 5) for additional details.
Garbage
All garbage and trash (i.e., solid, non-hazardous wastes) will be stored in enclosed bear-proof trash
containers. Disposal of garbage and trash will occur approximately once per week during drilling and
completions operations. All garbage and trash will be transported to a permitted solid waste landfill
Page 11 of 12
within one (1) week following termination of drilling or completion operations. Garbage or trash will not
be disposed of on-location. The well site and access road will be kept free of trash and debris during
long-term production operations. No hazardous substances or hazardous wastes are anticipated to be
generated during construction, drilling, and completions operations. Such materials are strictly prohibited
for disposal at a solid waste landfill. Please see the Waste Handling Table (Table 5) for additional details.
RECORD KEEPING
TEP will comply with COGCC Rule 905.b.(3), Waste Generator Requirement, which states that operators
that generates E&P Waste that is transported off-site will maintain records of invoices, bills, or tickets for
a minimum of five (5) years including the following information:
1. The date of the transport;
2. The identity of the waste generator;
3. The identity of the waste transporter;
4. The location of the waste pickup site;
5. The type and volume of waste; and
6. The name and location of the treatment or disposal site.
Records will be maintained in compliance with COGCC Rule 206, Recordkeeping and Access to
Records. Records will be maintained at TEP’s main field office in Parachute, CO. TEP will maintain
facility inspection forms, maintenance documentation, analytical sample data, storm water management
and weed control documentation, operational data, and any other information relative to the operation of
this facility.
BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES
1) TEP will properly characterize and dispose of all waste streams at facilities approved for
acceptance of each waste stream;
2) TEP will properly characterize and dispose of all waste at the appropriate specific landfill/waste
disposal location that allows for acceptance of the particular waste stream.
3) No offsite disposal of cuttings to another oil and gas location shall occur without prior approval
of an amended Waste Management Plan specifying disposal location and waste characterization
method; commercial disposal of drill cuttings and drilling fluids will only require the operator to
maintain documentation (manifests, bills of lading) of drill cuttings and drilling fluids disposal;
the operator will implement measures (covers, misting) in trucks to reduce dust and PM
emissions during transport of WBM solids and cuttings materials from the well pad location;
SUMMARY
As described above, development of the proposed wells on the South Leverich 13-09 pad will produce
waste fluids and materials which will be managed in accordance with all Federal, State, and local
guidelines. Table 5, Waste Handling Summary, shows a detailed summary of the waste streams involved
in development of the proposed wells.

Topsoil Protection Plan – 304.c.(14)
South Leverich 13-09 Oil and Gas Location
Loc ID #335045
July 2022
Table of Contents
TER
RULE 1001. INTRODUCTION
TEP Rocky Mountain LLC (hereafter “TEP”) has developed the following topsoil protection plan to
address compliance with Federal, State, and local requirements regarding topsoil management and
preservation during construction of the South Leverich 13-09 well pad and pipeline. Proper management
of topsoil from the Oil and Gas Location during initial site construction is necessary to ensure topsoil is
preserved for site reclamation—following completion of development of the well pad and pipeline
corridor—and to ensure adequate organic material for the re-establishment of desirable vegetation is
available at reclamation (restoring the land as nearly as practicable to its condition at commencement of
drilling and production operations).
RULE 1002. SITE PREPARATION AND STABILIZATION
There are two components of the South Leverich 13-09 Oil and Gas Location that require removal and
temporary storage of topsoil: construction of the South Leverich 13-09 well pad (6.43 acres) and pipeline
corridor (1.83 acres). Topsoil stripped during initial construction of these project components will be
managed according to use and duration of development.
Prior to separation and storage of the topsoil horizon, or top six (6) inches, from the well pad facility
and pipeline corridor, woody vegetation will be mulched and stormwater control measures properly
installed to control erosion and sedimentation during precipitation events. (Please refer to the
Stormwater Management Plan attached to the Form 2A for details on planned stormwater control
measures.) When separating soil horizons, TEP will segregate each horizon based upon noted changes
in physical characteristics, such as organic content, color, texture, density, or consistency.
To the extent feasible, stockpiled soils will be protected from degradation due to contamination,
compaction, and from wind and water erosion during drilling and production operations. Surface
roughening, temporary seeding and mulching, erosion control blankets, or soil binders will be used as
needed, and best management practices implemented, to prevent weed establishment and to maintain
soil microbial activity.
South Leverich 13-09 Well Pad
During construction of the well pad, TEP’s excavation contractor will strip the topsoil horizon between
the top of cut and toe of fill slopes. Topsoil will be stripped to a depth no less than six inches (6”) and
stockpiled south of the existing well pad. Topsoil will be segregated from other subsurface materials
disturbed during well pad construction activities and no topsoil will be used for building the location or
left in place and covered by subsoil in a cut and fill situation. To control sedimentation, wattles will be
properly installed around the base of topsoil stockpiles and a metal sign (11” x 17”) with the wording
“Topsoil Stockpile” will be placed on the north (pad) side of the stockpile area. Upon completion of well
pad construction activities, hydro-seed/mulch will be applied to topsoil stockpiles to stabilize the soils and
promote the growth of desirable plants until interim reclamation can be completed.
• Quantity of topsoil that will be disturbed for the well pad: approximately 2,920 cubic yards
(based on 6” depth, not including the working surface).
• Location of topsoil that will be disturbed: Please see Requirement 8: Scaled Diagram Showing
Topsoil Stockpile Locations below.
When drilling and completion operations and recontouring of the site are complete (as described in the
Interim Reclamation Plan), topsoil will be moved from the stockpile area and placed over the facility’s
cut and fill slopes. Following the uniform placement of topsoil over cut and fill slopes, hydro-seed/mulch
will be applied to stabilize soils to promote the growth of desirable vegetation. The facility’s Interim
Reclamation Plan provides specific details about the materials and methods to be used for interim
reclamation of the stockpile area.
Proposed Pipeline Corridor
During construction of the pipeline corridor, TEP’s pipeline installation contractor will strip the topsoil
horizon within the 50’ wide corridor pipeline right-of-way (ROW) width and place the material along the
downhill side. Topsoil will be segregated from subsurface materials excavated during pipeline installation
and stockpiled upslope of the trench. When construction is complete and the pipeline ROW has been re-
contoured to pre-construction slopes, stripped topsoil will be uniformly re-placed across the disturbance.
• Quantity of pipeline corridor topsoil that will be disturbed: approximately 1,476 cubic yards
(based on 6” average depth).
• Location of topsoil that will be disturbed: topsoil will be stripped from the pipeline ROW and
windrowed along the downhill side of the ROW.
Following the uniform placement of topsoil, the pipeline ROW will be hydro-seeded/mulched to stabilize
the soil and promote growth of desirable vegetation. The project’s Reclamation Plan, attached to the Form
2A, provides specific details about the reclamation materials and methods to be used for the pipeline
corridor.

Preface
Soil surveys contain information that affects land use planning in survey areas.
They highlight soil limitations that affect various land uses and provide information
about the properties of the soils in the survey areas. Soil surveys are designed for
many different users, including farmers, ranchers, foresters, agronomists, urban
planners, community officials, engineers, developers, builders, and home buyers.
Also, conservationists, teachers, students, and specialists in recreation, waste
disposal, and pollution control can use the surveys to help them understand,
protect, or enhance the environment.
Various land use regulations of Federal, State, and local governments may impose
special restrictions on land use or land treatment. Soil surveys identify soil
properties that are used in making various land use or land treatment decisions.
The information is intended to help the land users identify and reduce the effects of
soil limitations on various land uses. The landowner or user is responsible for
identifying and complying with existing laws and regulations.
Although soil survey information can be used for general farm, local, and wider area
planning, onsite investigation is needed to supplement this information in some
cases. Examples include soil quality assessments (http://www.nrcs.usda.gov/wps/
portal/nrcs/main/soils/health/) and certain conservation and engineering
applications. For more detailed information, contact your local USDA Service Center
(https://offices.sc.egov.usda.gov/locator/app?agency=nrcs) or your NRCS State Soil
Scientist (http://www.nrcs.usda.gov/wps/portal/nrcs/detail/soils/contactus/?
cid=nrcs142p2_053951).
Great differences in soil properties can occur within short distances. Some soils are
seasonally wet or subject to flooding. Some are too unstable to be used as a
foundation for buildings or roads. Clayey or wet soils are poorly suited to use as
septic tank absorption fields. A high water table makes a soil poorly suited to
basements or underground installations.
The National Cooperative Soil Survey is a joint effort of the United States
Department of Agriculture and other Federal agencies, State agencies including the
Agricultural Experiment Stations, and local agencies. The Natural Resources
Conservation Service (NRCS) has leadership for the Federal part of the National
Cooperative Soil Survey.
Information about soils is updated periodically. Updated information is available
through the NRCS Web Soil Survey, the site for official soil survey information.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) prohibits discrimination in all its
programs and activities on the basis of race, color, national origin, age, disability,
and where applicable, sex, marital status, familial status, parental status, religion,
sexual orientation, genetic information, political beliefs, reprisal, or because all or a

Map Unit Descriptions
The map units delineated on the detailed soil maps in a soil survey represent the
soils or miscellaneous areas in the survey area. The map unit descriptions, along
with the maps, can be used to determine the composition and properties of a unit.
A map unit delineation on a soil map represents an area dominated by one or more
major kinds of soil or miscellaneous areas. A map unit is identified and named
according to the taxonomic classification of the dominant soils. Within a taxonomic
class there are precisely defined limits for the properties of the soils. On the
landscape, however, the soils are natural phenomena, and they have the
characteristic variability of all natural phenomena. Thus, the range of some
observed properties may extend beyond the limits defined for a taxonomic class.

Areas of soils of a single taxonomic class rarely, if ever, can be mapped without
including areas of other taxonomic classes. Consequently, every map unit is made
up of the soils or miscellaneous areas for which it is named and some minor
components that belong to taxonomic classes other than those of the major soils.
Most minor soils have properties similar to those of the dominant soil or soils in the
map unit, and thus they do not affect use and management. These are called
noncontrasting, or similar, components. They may or may not be mentioned in a
particular map unit description. Other minor components, however, have properties
and behavioral characteristics divergent enough to affect use or to require different
management. These are called contrasting, or dissimilar, components. They
generally are in small areas and could not be mapped separately because of the
scale used. Some small areas of strongly contrasting soils or miscellaneous areas
are identified by a special symbol on the maps. If included in the database for a
given area, the contrasting minor components are identified in the map unit
descriptions along with some characteristics of each. A few areas of minor
components may not have been observed, and consequently they are not
mentioned in the descriptions, especially where the pattern was so complex that it
was impractical to make enough observations to identify all the soils and
miscellaneous areas on the landscape.
The presence of minor components in a map unit in no way diminishes the
usefulness or accuracy of the data. The objective of mapping is not to delineate
pure taxonomic classes but rather to separate the landscape into landforms or
landform segments that have similar use and management requirements. The
delineation of such segments on the map provides sufficient information for the
development of resource plans. If intensive use of small areas is planned, however,
onsite investigation is needed to define and locate the soils and miscellaneous
areas.
An identifying symbol precedes the map unit name in the map unit descriptions.
Each description includes general facts about the unit and gives important soil
properties and qualities.
Soils that have profiles that are almost alike make up a soil series. Except for
differences in texture of the surface layer, all the soils of a series have major
horizons that are similar in composition, thickness, and arrangement.
Soils of one series can differ in texture of the surface layer, slope, stoniness,
salinity, degree of erosion, and other characteristics that affect their use. On the
basis of such differences, a soil series is divided into soil phases. Most of the areas
shown on the detailed soil maps are phases of soil series. The name of a soil phase
commonly indicates a feature that affects use or management. For example, Alpha
silt loam, 0 to 2 percent slopes, is a phase of the Alpha series.
Some map units are made up of two or more major soils or miscellaneous areas.
These map units are complexes, associations, or undifferentiated groups.
A complex consists of two or more soils or miscellaneous areas in such an intricate
pattern or in such small areas that they cannot be shown separately on the maps.
The pattern and proportion of the soils or miscellaneous areas are somewhat similar
in all areas. Alpha-Beta complex, 0 to 6 percent slopes, is an example.
An association is made up of two or more geographically associated soils or
miscellaneous areas that are shown as one unit on the maps. Because of present
or anticipated uses of the map units in the survey area, it was not considered
practical or necessary to map the soils or miscellaneous areas separately. The
Custom Soil Resource Report

pattern and relative proportion of the soils or miscellaneous areas are somewhat
similar. Alpha-Beta association, 0 to 2 percent slopes, is an example.
An undifferentiated group is made up of two or more soils or miscellaneous areas
that could be mapped individually but are mapped as one unit because similar
interpretations can be made for use and management. The pattern and proportion
of the soils or miscellaneous areas in a mapped area are not uniform. An area can
be made up of only one of the major soils or miscellaneous areas, or it can be made
up of all of them. Alpha and Beta soils, 0 to 2 percent slopes, is an example.
Some surveys include miscellaneous areas. Such areas have little or no soil
material and support little or no vegetation. Rock outcrop is an example.

Soil Information for All Uses
Soil Properties and Qualities
The Soil Properties and Qualities section includes various soil properties and
qualities displayed as thematic maps with a summary table for the soil map units in
the selected area of interest. A single value or rating for each map unit is generated
by aggregating the interpretive ratings of individual map unit components. This
aggregation process is defined for each property or quality.
Soil Erosion Factors
Soil Erosion Factors are soil properties and interpretations used in evaluating the
soil for potential erosion. Example soil erosion factors can include K factor for the
whole soil or on a rock free basis, T factor, wind erodibility group and wind erodibility
index.
K Factor, Whole Soil
Erosion factor K indicates the susceptibility of a soil to sheet and rill erosion by
water. Factor K is one of six factors used in the Universal Soil Loss Equation
(USLE) and the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) to predict the
average annual rate of soil loss by sheet and rill erosion in tons per acre per year.
The estimates are based primarily on percentage of silt, sand, and organic matter
and on soil structure and saturated hydraulic conductivity (Ksat). Values of K range
from 0.02 to 0.69. Other factors being equal, the higher the value, the more
susceptible the soil is to sheet and rill erosion by water.
"Erosion factor Kw (whole soil)" indicates the erodibility of the whole soil. The
estimates are modified by the presence of rock fragments.
Factor K does not apply to organic horizons and is not reported for those layers.

Aggregation Method: Dominant Condition
Aggregation is the process by which a set of component attribute values is reduced
to a single value that represents the map unit as a whole.
A map unit is typically composed of one or more "components". A component is
either some type of soil or some nonsoil entity, e.g., rock outcrop. For the attribute
being aggregated, the first step of the aggregation process is to derive one attribute
value for each of a map unit's components. From this set of component attributes,
Custom Soil Resource Report
32
the next step of the aggregation process derives a single value that represents the
map unit as a whole. Once a single value for each map unit is derived, a thematic
map for soil map units can be rendered. Aggregation must be done because, on
any soil map, map units are delineated but components are not.
For each of a map unit's components, a corresponding percent composition is
recorded. A percent composition of 60 indicates that the corresponding component
typically makes up approximately 60% of the map unit. Percent composition is a
critical factor in some, but not all, aggregation methods.
The aggregation method "Dominant Condition" first groups like attribute values for
the components in a map unit. For each group, percent composition is set to the
sum of the percent composition of all components participating in that group. These
groups now represent "conditions" rather than components. The attribute value
associated with the group with the highest cumulative percent composition is
returned. If more than one group shares the highest cumulative percent
composition, the corresponding "tie-break" rule determines which value should be
returned. The "tie-break" rule indicates whether the lower or higher group value
should be returned in the case of a percent composition tie. The result returned by
this aggregation method represents the dominant condition throughout the map unit
only when no tie has occurred.
Component Percent Cutoff: None Specified
Components whose percent composition is below the cutoff value will not be
considered. If no cutoff value is specified, all components in the database will be
considered. The data for some contrasting soils of minor extent may not be in the
database, and therefore are not considered.
Tie-break Rule: Higher
The tie-break rule indicates which value should be selected from a set of multiple
candidate values, or which value should be selected in the event of a percent
composition tie.
Layer Options (Horizon Aggregation Method): Surface Layer (Not applicable)
For an attribute of a soil horizon, a depth qualification must be specified. In most
cases it is probably most appropriate to specify a fixed depth range, either in
centimeters or inches. The Bottom Depth must be greater than the Top Depth, and
the Top Depth can be greater than zero. The choice of "inches" or "centimeters"
only applies to the depth of soil to be evaluated. It has no influence on the units of
measure the data are presented in.
When "Surface Layer" is specified as the depth qualifier, only the surface layer or
horizon is considered when deriving a value for a component, but keep in mind that
the thickness of the surface layer varies from component to component.
When "All Layers" is specified as the depth qualifier, all layers recorded for a
component are considered when deriving the value for that component.
Whenever more than one layer or horizon is considered when deriving a value for a
component, and the attribute being aggregated is a numeric attribute, a weighted
average value is returned, where the weighting factor is the layer or horizon
thickness.

Soil Qualities and Features
Soil qualities are behavior and performance attributes that are not directly
measured, but are inferred from observations of dynamic conditions and from soil
properties. Example soil qualities include natural drainage, and frost action. Soil
features are attributes that are not directly part of the soil. Example soil features
include slope and depth to restrictive layer. These features can greatly impact the
use and management of the soil.
Hydrologic Soil Group
Hydrologic soil groups are based on estimates of runoff potential. Soils are
assigned to one of four groups according to the rate of water infiltration when the
soils are not protected by vegetation, are thoroughly wet, and receive precipitation
from long-duration storms.
The soils in the United States are assigned to four groups (A, B, C, and D) and
three dual classes (A/D, B/D, and C/D). The groups are defined as follows:
Group A. Soils having a high infiltration rate (low runoff potential) when thoroughly
wet. These consist mainly of deep, well drained to excessively drained sands or
gravelly sands. These soils have a high rate of water transmission.
Group B. Soils having a moderate infiltration rate when thoroughly wet. These
consist chiefly of moderately deep or deep, moderately well drained or well drained
soils that have moderately fine texture to moderately coarse texture. These soils
have a moderate rate of water transmission.
Group C. Soils having a slow infiltration rate when thoroughly wet. These consist
chiefly of soils having a layer that impedes the downward movement of water or
soils of moderately fine texture or fine texture. These soils have a slow rate of water
transmission.
Group D. Soils having a very slow infiltration rate (high runoff potential) when
thoroughly wet. These consist chiefly of clays that have a high shrink-swell
potential, soils that have a high water table, soils that have a claypan or clay layer at
or near the surface, and soils that are shallow over nearly impervious material.
These soils have a very slow rate of water transmission.
If a soil is assigned to a dual hydrologic group (A/D, B/D, or C/D), the first letter is
for drained areas and the second is for undrained areas. Only the soils that in their
natural condition are in group D are assigned to dual classes.

SALVAGED AND CUBIC YARDS FOR EACH TOPSOIL STOCKPILE
South Leverich 13-09 Well Pad
During construction of the well pad, approximately 2,920 cubic yards of topsoil between the top-of-cut
and toe-of-fill slopes will be salvaged. Topsoil will be stripped to a depth no less than six inches (6”) and
stockpiled south of the existing pad location. Topsoil will be segregated from all subsurface materials
disturbed during well pad construction and no topsoil will be used for building the location or will be left
in place and covered by subsoil in a cut and fill situation.
Proposed Pipeline Corridor
During construction of the pipeline corridor, approximately 1,476 cubic yards of topsoil within the
pipeline right-of-way (ROW) will be salvaged. Topsoil will be stripped to a depth no less than six -inches
(6”) and windrowed along the downhill side of the ROW. Topsoil will be segregated from all other
subsurface materials disturbed during pipeline construction and no topsoil will be used for construction of
the corridor or will be left in place and covered by subsoil in a cut and fill situation.
REQUIREMENT 10: DESCRIPTION OF MEASURED TOPSOIL DEPTHS
South Leverich 13-09 Oil and Gas Location Soil Pit Profile Description
The South Leverich 13-09 facility is primarily located in mixed mountain shrubland; dominant plant
types include brush and mountain sagebrush, and lesser types include Aspen trees and perennial and
annual grasses. Six (6) samples were collected from two NRCS-defined soil type areas:
• One (1) for the pipeline corridor soil type 45
• One (1) for the pipeline corridor soil type 16
• One (1) for the well pad soil type 16
• Three (3) for the well pad soil type 45
Soil profiles did not include Horizon O and the topsoil Horizon A was moderately developed and
appeared to have a high mineral to organic matter ratio and moderate to poor plant rooting. Soil samples
were collected by hand from the surface to depths of 6” to meet the minimum depth requirement for
topsoil sample collections (COGCC reclamation rule 1002.B). From the sample locations, no topsoil
horizons extended more than 12” below the surface elevation and measured topsoil depths among soil pit
and sample locations varied. Horizon A, or topsoil horizon, averaged:
• Approximately 8.5” thickness for NRCS soil type 16
• Approximately 10.3” thickness for NRCS soil type 45
The topsoil horizon was defined as an A horizon containing mixed organic material and mineral content,
with minerals and some organics identified in shallow, root-dense layers of the soil profile.
REQUIREMENT 11: DESCRIPTION OF BMPs FOR SHORT- AND LONG-
TERM STABILIZATION OF TOPSOIL STOCKPILES
RULE 1002. INTRODUCTION
During construction activities, topsoil stockpiles may be formed with soils removed from and segregated
for roads, pipelines, well pads, and other TEP facilities. The preserved soils will be used to re-contour
disturbed surfaces or for reclamation/restoration of disturbed areas that will utilize vegetative final
stabilization. Stockpiles will be protected from degradation due to contamination, compaction, and, to t he
extent practicable, from wind and water erosion during drilling and production operations. Best
management practices (BMPs) to prevent weed establishment and to maintain soil microbial activity will
be implemented.
BMPs for Short-Term Stabilization
Proper stockpile construction (e.g., away from drainages, with 2:1 slopes, proper heights, and control
measures downgradient) and management should help to preserve the chemical and biological integrity of
topsoil. According to site conditions, the following BMPs may be used to stabilize topsoil stockpiles in
the initial phase of construction.
• Protection from Contamination: based on changes in physical characteristics (e.g., organic
content, color, texture, density, or consistency), soil horizons will be segregated and stockpiled
separately; stockpiles of different soil types will be separated by compacted earthen berms,
sediment control logs, straw bale barriers, etc.; and stockpile surfaces will be stabilized to control
for erosion and sedimentation.
• Protection from Compaction: topsoil stockpiles will be indicated on site with signage; stockpiles
will be placed in areas away from vehicle and equipment traffic; and when stockpiling,
compaction will be minimized by limiting the number of equipment passes, limiting stockpile
height, and using vegetation.
• Protection from Wind Erosion: surface roughening, applying hydro-seed/mulch, using soil
tackifier, covering stockpiles with rolled erosion control products, etc.
• Protection from Water Erosion: surface roughening, applying hydro-seed/mulch, using soil
tackifier, covering stockpiles with rolled erosion control products, etc.
• Weed Establishment Prevention: TEP uses cultural, mechanical, biological, and chemical controls
to prevent the establishment of weeds. TEP’s complete Weed Control plan is included in
Requirement 12 below.
BMPs for Long-Term Stabilization
Interim reclamation: When drilling and completion operations and recontouring of the site are complete
(as described in the Interim Reclamation Plan), all topsoil will be moved from the stockpile area and
placed over the facility’s cut and fill slopes to ensure long term topsoil health including protection from
erosion, prevention of weed establishment, and maintenance of soil microbial activity until final
reclamation. The following BMPs will be used after topsoil placement is complete on cut and fill slopes.
• The seed bed will be prepared on all topsoiled areas to alleviate compaction and minimize the
potential for erosion.
• Topsoiled areas will be planted with desirable species or a seed mixture provided by the Surface
Owner for this particular location.
• Protection from Wind and Water Erosion: topsoiled areas will be covered with certified weed
free mulch at an application rate specified by the product’s manufacturer, or a specification sheet
that follows good engineering practices.
• Weed Establishment Prevention: TEP uses cultural, mechanical, biological, and chemical
controls to prevent the establishment of weeds. TEP’s complete Weed Control plan is included
below in Requirement 12.
Final reclamation: During final reclamation, topsoil will be stripped from cut and fill slopes and
stockpiled during the final recontouring of the facility. BMP practices listed in the short-term stabilization
will be used. Once recontouring is complete, topsoil will be moved from the stockpile area and placed
over surfaces recontoured for final reclamation. The following BMPs will be used after topsoil placement
is complete on finally reclaimed surfaces.
• The seed bed will be prepared on all topsoiled areas to alleviate compaction and minimize the
potential for erosion.
• Topsoiled areas will be planted with desirable species or a seed mixture provided by the surface
owner for this particular location.
• Protection from Wind and Water Erosion: topsoiled areas will be covered with certified weed
free mulches at an application rate specified by the product’s manufacturer, or a specification
sheet that follows good engineering practices.
• Weed Establishment Prevention: TEP uses cultural, mechanical, biological, and chemical
controls to prevent the establishment of weeds. TEP’s complete Weed Control plan is included
below in Requirement 12.

REQUIREMENT 12: WEED CONTROL PLAN
Terra Energy Partners, Rocky Mountain LLC
Noxious Weed Management Plan
TER
ENERGY PARTNERS
Noxious weed infestations may occur on lands that fall within Terra Energy Partners,
LLC (TEP) lease boundaries. These areas include well pads, lease roads, disturbed
sites, reclaimed sites, as well as some undisturbed areas. In order to minimize
impacts that may result from the presence of noxious weeds, improve reclamation
success, and ensure good land stewardship, TEP has adopted the following Integrated
Noxious Weed Management Plan. The Weed management plan is designed to bring TEP
into compliance with the Colorado Noxious Weed Act (C.R.S. Title 35, Article 5.5),
Colorado Oil & Gas Conservation Act, the Rio Blanco County Noxious Weed
Management Plan, and the BLM Gold Book. Weed Management activities will primarily
focus on the Colorado Noxious Weed List and the Rio Blanco County Noxious Weed List
(see list below). TEP’s Integrated Weed Management plan will focus four key
components of weed management.
Prevention
Inventory and Mapping
Weed Control
Monitoring
Prevention - Prevention is a key component of the TEP weed management program.
TEP addresses prevention in the planning, development, and operations phases of field
development. TEP tries to avoid or limit ground disturbance activities when practical.
If ground disturbing activities cannot be avoided, TEP tries to plan development that
will avoid identified weed infestation or areas where weed establishment may be more
optimal if this is practical to operations. If ground disturbing activities do occur, TEP
uses temporary or permanent seed mixes that help to develop healthy stands of
vegetation that can be self sustaining and deter the establishment of invasive species.
Inventory and Mapping – TEP uses various means to inventory noxious weeds that fall
within its lease boundaries. First, members of TEP Environmental staff are trained in
weed identification and note noxious weed occurrences when they are completing
field work. Second, the environmental staff works to educate field operations staff to
identify weed infestations so that they can also document infestations and inform
environmental staff where those infestations occur. If operations personnel are
unsure of a suspected infestation, they contact the Environmental staff, and the
suspected infestation is then investigated before it is documented. Third, TEP hires a
Certified Weed Applicator to do its bare ground and noxious weed spraying. While the
Applicator is conducting their annual spraying activities they are required to GPS
infestations they find and treat for a company inventory and also for annual reporting.
Lastly, many of the lands that TEP operates on are also used for livestock grazing or
agricultural purposes and TEP works with the lessees to document weed infestations
that the lessees may identify.
Weed Control – TEP uses an Integrated Weed Management Approach for the control of
identified noxious weed infestations. This is made up of four control methods. These
include Cultural, Mechanical, Biological, and Chemical.
Cultural – Cultural control is the use of management practices that will help
to favor the growth of desirable species over undesirable species. This
establishment is accomplished by using appropriate seed mixes that reflect
the surrounding area or species that have been developed and are approved
for rapid stabilization of a site. Purchased seed and mulch is certified weed
free to decrease the opportunity for noxious weed species to be introduced
into disturbed sites.
Mechanical – Mechanical controls methods most often used by TEP include the
following. Mowing, tillage, and hand pulling. However, because mechanical
methods tend to be fairly labor intensive and cost prohibitive, it is not
typically a preferred method but can be used in sensitive areas or areas where
topography or other environmental factors may be considered prohibitive.
Biological - Biological Control Methods are the release of organisms that are
known to be effective in controlling specific weed species. This method may
be chosen if there is a heavy infestation of a specific species on a site. TEP
will consult with the Colorado Department of Agriculture Insectary located in
Palisade, Colorado when exploring control options. The BLM will also be
consulted if this method is being considered on federally controlled lands.
Chemical – Chemical control is the use of herbicides to control weed
populations. This is the primary weed control method used by TEP. TEP
annually contracts a Certified Commercial applicator to apply herbicides on
lease acreage. Both bare ground and noxious weed applications occur
throughout spring, summer, and fall. TEP encourages the use of spot spray
application on lease land to ensure vegetation diversity components are
maintained. Broadcast applications are only used if a weed infestation is
extremely heavy and has created a monoculture in the infested area. The use
of appropriate PPE, pesticide storage, pesticide handling, spray mixtures and
application rates will occur on TEP lease acreage.
Monitoring – Areas where noxious weed infestations are identified and treated will be
inspected over time to ensure that control methods are working to reduce and
suppress the identified infestation. The sites will be monitored until the infestations
are eliminated or reduced to acceptable levels. These inspections will be used to
prioritize future weed control efforts.

Stormwater Management Plan – 304.c.(15)
South Leverich 13-09 Oil and Gas Location
Loc ID #335045

Page 2 of 14
INTRODUCTION
TEP Rocky Mountain LLC (“TEP”) has developed the following Storm Water Management Plan as
required by the Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (“COGCC”) Rule 304.c.(15) describing
the general practices and procedures TEP’s stormwater management program employs during the
development of an Oil and Gas Location. Additionally, this plan provides site specific stormwater
management control measures that will be employed during development of the South Leverich 13-09
pad to ensure compliance with COGCC, Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment, and
Federal regulations.
TEP has developed a Field Wide Storm Water Management Plan (SWMP) in compliance with the
CDPHE’s Colorado Discharge Permit System (CDPS) and to ensure conformance to the stormwater
management standards under COGCC Rule 1002.f. The SWMP will identify possible pollutant sources
that may contribute pollutants to stormwater, and identify Best Management Practices (BMPs) that, when
implemented, will reduce, or eliminate any possible water quality impacts. TEP has also developed a field
wide Post-Construction Stormwater Management Plan (PC-SWMP) as required by COGCC Rule
1002.f.(3) to ensure that Best Management Practices (BMPs) are implemented on all subject oil and gas
locations under its management where the Construction Storm Water permit issued by CDPHE has been
terminated. The PC-SWMP identifies possible pollutant sources that may contribute pollutants to
stormwater during the post-construction and reclamation phase of operations and describes BMPs to
control stormwater runoff in a manner that minimizes erosion, transport of sediment offsite, transport of
pollutants offsite, or degradation of site conditions. Upon request by the COGCC or the director, TEP will
provide the SWMP and / or PC-SWMP for review.
TEP is proposing to drill, complete, and operate twenty-one (21) directional natural gas wells from the
existing South Leverich 13-09 pad located on private surface owned by TEP overlying Fee minerals. The
South Leverich 13-09 pad is an existing oil and gas location (COGCC Loc ID: 335045) with four (4)
natural gas wells producing from the underlying Fee lease. The existing oil and gas location is located on
resource / rangeland within Lot 3 and Lot 4 of Section 13, Township 7 South, Range 94 West, 6th P.M.,
within Garfield County, Colorado.
The South Leverich 13-09 pad would be reconstructed and slightly expanded to accommodate the
development of the twenty-one (21) new proposed directional wells. The existing access road from
Garfield County Road 317/317A will be used to access the existing oil and gas location. Development of
the twenty-one (21) proposed wells on the South Leverich 13-09 pad would also require the construction
of two (2) new pipelines, one to support gas gathering operations and the other to support transport of
produced water. Other existing facilities including the Youberg SR 43-12 pad (COGCC Loc ID: 413683),
Youberg RU 44-7 pad (COGCC Loc ID: 439173), and the Beaver Creek Pit (Pit 11-7-793; COGCC Loc
ID: 432702), would be utilized as support facilities for development of the proposed wells on the South
Leverich 13-09 pad.
Development Phases: Each phase of development requires the implementation and maintenance of both
structural and non-structural stormwater management control measures used by TEP to effectively
minimize site erosion and sediment transport. The following outlines the typical development phase
which is described in greater detail below.
1) Pre-Construction Phase
2) Construction Phase (pad, road, and pipeline)
3) Interim Reclamation Phase
4) Final Reclamation Phase
Page 3 of 14
Please see Appendix A, Construction Layout, and Appendix B, Interim Reclamation Layout, which depict
preliminary site-specific stormwater control measures planned for installation at the South Leverich 13-09
pad during both initial construction and interim reclamation of the oil and gas location.
SUPPLEMENTAL SITE INFORMATION
The South Leverich 13-09 pad is an existing 5.44-acre oil and gas location that would be reconstructed
and expanded to a 6.43-acre footprint to support drilling and completion operations of twenty-one (21)
proposed natural gas wells. The long-term disturbance of the South Leverich 13-09 pad would be
approximately 1.74-acres. Approximately 4.69-acres of the oil and gas location would be reclaimed
following completion of well construction.
Soils: The National Resource Conservation Service (“NRCS”) identifies the dominate soil types within the
boundary of the South Leverich 13-09 pad as the Morval-Tridell complex and the Cimarron loam. The
Morval-Tridel complex soil type is associated with alluvial fans and was derived from sandstone and/or
basalt. The typical profile to a depth of 5 inches is defined as loam, 5-17 inches defined as clay loam, 17-
27 inches defined as stony clay loam, and 27-60 inches defined as stony loam. The Cimarron loam soil type
is associated with valleys or drainageways and was derived from basalt. The typical profile to a depth of 4
inches is defined as loam, 4-16 inches is defined as silty clay loam, and 16-60 inches is defined as silty
clay.
The NRCS reports that these soils are classified, under the Uniform Soils Classification System, as
inorganic clays (CL). These soils have a reported hydrologic group rating of C, having a slow infiltration
rate when thoroughly wet. The infiltration rate is listed as moderately low to moderately high ranging from
0.06 to 0.60 inches per hour. The NRCS lists the Flood Frequency Class for the facility location as “None”.
“None” means that flooding is not probable, and the chance of flooding is nearly zero percent in any year.
NRCS reports that the Erosion factor K (whole soil) of 0.28 for the site, or moderately susceptible to erosion
by water. Erosion factor K indicates the susceptibility of a soil to sheet and rill erosion by water. Factor K
is one of six factors used in the Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) and the Revised Universal Soil Loss
Equation (RUSLE) to predict the average annual rate of soil loss by sheet and rill erosion in tons per acre
per year. The estimates are based primarily on percentage of silt, sand, and organic matter and on soil
structure and saturated hydraulic conductivity (Ksat). Values of K range from 0.02 to 0.69. Other factors
being equal, the higher the value, the more susceptible the soil is to sheet and rill erosion by water.
Stormwater BMPs will be implemented to control soil erosion.
Vegetation Description: The primary vegetation communities within the project area include Wyoming big
sagebrush, Gambel’s oak, serviceberry, Rocky Mountain maple, and quaking aspen. A comprehensive list
of common plant species within the project area can be found in the Biological Survey Report attached to
the Form 2A. Since the South Leverich 13-09 pad is an existing oil and gas location, a pre-disturbance
vegetation cover evaluation would not provide an accurate assessment of vegetation cover at the site.
However, a vegetation assessment was completed for the reference area, which determined that precent
cover for pre-disturbance conditions are approximately 98%. Please see the vegetation assessment included
in the Biological Survey for additional details.
Weed Infestations: WestWater Engineering (“WestWater”) conducted a biological survey which included
a survey for weeds within the project area. WestWater identified several noxious weed infestations within
the project area including State Listed B and C noxious weeds. Please see the Biological Survey Report
attached to the Form 2A for additional detail on noxious weeds, including a list of the noxious weed
observed within the project area.
Non-Stormwater Discharges: Non-stormwater discharges are limited to application of fresh water along
the existing access road and well pad. Excavation activities associated with the proposed activities are not
Page 4 of 14
expected to impact groundwater. However, ground water encountered during excavation will be addressed
in accordance with Federal and State regulations.
Receiving Water: Beaver Creek, a perennial stream which is located west of the Oil and Gas Location
approximately 640 feet, is the nearest surface water feature downgradient of the South Leverich 13-09 pad.
Two (2) other unnamed intermittent drainages are located northeast of the Oil and Gas Location but are
topographically isolated. Stormwater control measure described below will minimize the potential for
impacts to surface water features.
STORMWATER MANAGEMENT CONTROL MEASURES
Potential Pollution Sources and Locations: Stormwater management control measures will be
implemented to minimize the potential for pollution. The following potential pollution source have been
identified as part of planned activities on the South Leverich 13-09 pad:
1) Transport of chemicals and materials, including loading and unloading operations
Spill prevention during loading and unloading is outlined in TEP’s Piceance Basin Spill Prevention and
Response Plan (“SPRP”) and Integrated Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasures (“SPCC”) Plan.
TEP complies with applicable DOT requirements when transporting chemicals and materials to oil and
gas locations.
2) Vehicle/equipment fueling
Equipment is only fueled in designated fueling areas. Proper storage and transport of fuels is described
below.
3) Outdoor storage activities, including those for chemicals and additives
Material or chemicals brought to or produced on the oil and gas location will be handled properly using
good housekeeping practices. TEP’s SPCC and SPRP plans address storage and handling procedures
including guidelines for materials handling, storage container labeling, elevation, sealing, covering,
securing, and secondary containment, as described below.
4) Produced water and drilling fluids storage
Guidelines for storing produced water, drilling fluids, fuels, and chemicals include the following.
All containers will be clearly labeled.
Dry materials will be stored on pallets and covered when not in use to avoid contact with
precipitation, stormwater, and wind.
Potentially hazardous liquid materials in buckets, drums or tanks will be stored within secondary
containment, such as soil berms, steel containers or bermed visqueen, to capture accidental spills
or leaks. Drums will be kept off the ground within secondary containment and stored under cover,
if needed. The berms shall be constructed such that they are sufficiently impervious to prevent the
material from being released beyond the confines of the containment system.
Fuel tanks will be stored within secondary containment.
Container lids will be securely fastened.
In the event of a spill, procedures outlined in TEP’s SPRP will be followed. Persons trained in
handling spills will be available.
