Final CDP Proposed Locations
Preferred
Alternate
Location and Well Pad Planning:
• All locations are along the Hwy 52 corridor
• All locations exceed the COGCC’s 1,000’ buffer distance to the nearest building units
• All locations are greater than the required distances from all sensitive wildlife habitats
• All locations will utilize tankless production facilities and occupy significantly smaller footprints than traditional sites

Alternate Location in Section 36
• Section 1 is the “preferred” location and Crestone does not intend to utilize both sections, but requests approval of both locations for development pending unresolved floodway designation issues
• Due to potential re-designation of most of Section 1 as a floodway, and following additional alternatives analysis, Section 36 was selected as an “alternative” location

Mitigating the temporary impacts of our operations
ODOR
✓ Utilize a variety of mitigation
measures, like chillers,
enclosed mud tanks and walls
to contain potential odors
NOISE
✓ Employ the most current
technology available (i.e.
sound mitigation walls)
✓ Ongoing noise monitoring
during operations
✓ Low-frequency noise levels will
not exceed 65 dBC as
measured from the nearest
Building Unit
✓ Production equipment could be
powered by electricity
TRAFFIC
✓ A Traffic Impact Study (TIS)
helps designate proposed haul
route and overweight haul route
✓ Utilization of the Hub helps
reduce truck traffic, dust and
noise
✓ The TIS addresses high-traffic
periods, allowing for limiting or
staggering of deliveries or other
activity

Timeline and Next Steps
Planning and permitting (July 2018 – Dec. 2019)
Crestone will continue with the necessary permitting processes (including Boulder County)
Seismic studies and subsurface mapping (July 2018 – March 2019)
Crestone will begin the process of acquiring seismic permits and permissions within the CDP Area in mid-2018. Once
obtained and the seismic survey begins, the process will take approximately 30-60 days to complete the CDP area. Any
potential delays in the approval of the CDP will not impact the seismic study schedule or plan.
*If the Section 36 location is approved, it will track against the Section 1 timeline.
