| Complaint Issue |
| Issue: | | Assigned To: | JOHN AXELSON | Status: | Resolved 6/23/2011 |
| Description: | Weld County filed a complaint regarding the dumping of drilling fluids at a property owned by the New Hope Church @ 1900 AA Street in Greeley. Weld County inspected the location and did not believe the fluids were being applied as a beneficial soil amendment. Other materials such as concrete were being disposed on location and they believed the site was being used only for disposal. |
| Resolution: | NOAV issued to Ranchers Exploration requiring them to remove any remaining drilling mud from the church property. Also required to document proper land application of the waste at new location. |
