10/17/2012 | Share/consolidate corridors for pipeline ROWs to the maximum extent possible.
Maximize the utility of surface facilities by developing multiple wells from a single pad (directional drilling), and by co-
locating multipurpose facilities (for example, well pads and compressors) to avoid unnecessary habitat fragmentation
and disturbance of additional geographic areas.
Minimize newly planned activities and operations within 300 feet of the ordinary high water mark of any reservoir,
lake, wetland, or natural perennial or seasonally flowing stream or river.
Locate roads outside of drainages where possible and outside of riparian habitat.
Avoid constructing any road segment in the channel of an intermittent or perennial stream
Avoid new surface disturbance and placing new facilities in key wildlife habitats in consultation with CDOW.
Use existing roads where possible
Combine utility infrastructure (gas, electric, and water) planning with roadway planning to avoid separate utility
corridors
Combine and share roads to minimize habitat fragmentation
Where possible, consolidate pipeline and existing roadways, or roadways that are planned for development
Place roads to avoid obstructions to migratory routes for wildlife, and to avoid displacement of wildlife from public to
private lands.
Design roads with visual and auditory buffers or screens (e.g., topographic barriers, vegetation, and distance).
Maximize the use of directional drilling to minimize habitat loss/fragmentation
Maximize use of remote telemetry for well monitoring to minimize traffic
Restrict oil and gas activities as practical

10/17/2012 | Structures for perennial or intermittent stream channel crossings should be constructed using appropriately sized
bridges or culverts
Design road crossings of streams to allow fish passage at all flows and to minimize the generation of sediment.
Design road crossings of streams at right angles to all riparian corridors and streams to minimize the area of
disturbance to the extent possible.

requirements
Use only certified weed-free native seed in seed mixes, except for non-native plants that benefit wildlife
WPX Energy will use certified, weed free grass hay, straw, hay or other mulch materials used for the reseeding and
reclamation of disturbed areas.
Install exclusionary devices to prevent bird and other wildlife access to equipment stacks, vents and openings.
Reduce visits to well-sites through remote monitoring (i.e. SCADA) and the use of multi-function contractors.
Avoid dust suppression activities within 300 feet of the ordinary high water mark of any reservoir, lake, wetland, or
natural perennial or seasonally flowing stream or river where possible.
