Sound walls will be installed for the duration of drilling and completion activities per third party sound modeling studies. Baseline studies will be conducted prior to commencement of construction and dirt work, which includes both A and C scale measurements. A sound model will be developed with the drilling rig and completion operations noise signatures. Bayswater has recently acquired a new rig signature for the Frontier # 8 rig with hospital grade mufflers. This signature information is available upon request. Various height sound walls will be engineered and installed where required and necessary. Temporary Ibeams will be installed for walls 20’ and higher. Sound walls themselves, a combination of STC-32 and STC-25 Acoustical Barrier Blankets, will be implemented. Both drilling and completion operations will be conducted within these sound walls. 10’-16’ portable walls will be used to dampen gen-sets, if necessary, pursuant to sound model results. Additionally, sound blankets may be utilized in and around the rig floor to dampen noise from the draw works. Operator is investigating the possibility of powering the drill site by electricity. false dc46caa7-9e41-4b88-8e8f-1fdf74caf31e 401054358 9 Construction Guy line anchors: All guy line anchors shall be brightly marked pursuant to Rule 604.c.(2)Q. false 9a9c25c7-d916-4467-a685-2a8856c76d6c 401054358 12 Odor mitigation Equipment shall be operated in such a manner that odors and dust do not constitute a nuisance or hazard to public welfare.

Bayswater utilizes flood plain information, COGCC setbacks, development strategies, economics, mechanical and well bore integrity, safety, traffic, geology and operations life cycles among other items when planning horizontal sites. Bayswater plans extended reach laterals when possible to minimize the number of disturbance areas and the number of multi-well sites. The use of existing pad sites, access roads and the proximity to pipelines all play important roles in site selection. Additionally, Bayswater looks at the torque and drag on drilling operations to see what the limitations are on site selection compared to landing points of the laterals. Bayswater will continue to be in close communication with Surface Owner(s) with respect to land use consideration, construction and drilling rig move in date. A meeting with the surface owner will determine the fencing and sound wall plan. During drilling operations, the well sites and any pits shall be fenced if requested by the Surface Owner. A meeting with the land owner will help determine any changes to fencing or culverts. Unless otherwise requested by the Surface Owner, well sites constructed within Designated Setback Locations shall be adequately fenced to restrict access by unauthorized persons. false f629efb1-01e6-4446-9d93-59f61e28a3b3 401054358 8 Dust control Operator shall employ practices for control of fugitive dust caused by their operations. Such practices shall include but are not limited to the use of speed restrictions, regular road maintenance, restriction of construction activity during high-wind days, and silica dust controls when handling sand used in hydraulic fracturing operations. Bayswater additionally has implemented the use of traffic signs when leaving the location to remind drivers of specific routes to utilize. Additional management practices such as road surfacing, wind breaks and barriers, or automation of wells to reduce truck traffic may also be required if technologically feasible and economically reasonable to minimize fugitive dust emissions. false 9bc9e818-9e14-47ee-8a0c-6f84f17914b5 401054358 11 Emissions mitigation Green Completions - Emission Control System: Test separators and associated flow lines and sand traps shall be installed to accommodate green completions techniques pursuant to COGCC Rules. In the anticipated absence of a viable gas sales line, the flowback gas shall be thermally oxidized in an emissions control device (ECD), which will be installed and kept in operable condition for at least the first 90-days of production pursuant to CDPHE rules. This ECD shall have an adequate capacity for 1.5 times the largest flowback within a 10 mile radius, will be flanged to route gas to other or permanent oxidizing equipment and shall be provided with the equipment needed to maintain combustions where non-combustible gases are present. Operator is working is working with midstream operators in the area. Bayswater will connect to a gas sales lines as soon as practical. false a9c93c42-5350-4bae-b444-9d405e3d06ac 401054358 4 Traffic control Access Roads: The access road will be constructed to accommodate local emergency vehicle access requirements. Bayswater plans to utilize an existing farm field entrance. The access can be improved upon to accommodate drilling and completions operations trucks as wells as local emergency vehicles. Bayswater has implemented traffic signs at our entrances and exits from pads to suggest traffic patterns and also for speed control. Traffic from this pad will be directed south to CR 74. false 09fdca9f-55de-4374-91f2-749472f79cce 401054358 6 Storm Water/Erosion Control Use water bars and other measures to prevent erosion and non-source pollution. Implement and maintain BMPs to control storm water runoff in a manner that minimizes erosion, transport of sediment offsite, and site degradation. Co-locate gas and water gathering lines whenever feasible, and mitigate any erosion problems that arise due to the construction of any pipeline(s). false c533a959-6bb4-4112-8d9c-a8dfbda5ad33 401054358 2 Community Outreach and Notification Operator will also provide a toll-free hotline to all Building Unit Owners in the area if they have any complaints. false 81a21b78-8369-453e-9023-ad5e1cf10753 401054358 14 Drilling/Completion Operations One of the first wells drilled on the pad will be logged with open-hole Resistivity Log and Gamma Ray Log from the kick-off point into the surface casing. All wells on the pad will have a cement bond log with gamma-ray run on production casing (or on intermediate casing if production liner is run) into the surface casing. The horizontal portion of every well will be logged with a measured-while-drilling gamma-ray log. The Form 5 Completion Report for each well on the pad will list all logs run and have those logs attached. The Form 5 for a well without open-hole logs shall clearly state “No open-hole logs were run” and shall clearly identify (by API#, well name & number) the well in which open-hole logs were run. false bc7ebb93-d649-4be8-8dad-bbfef22b0f71 401054358 7 Material Handling and Spill Prevention Leak Detention Plan: Pumper will visit the location daily and visually inspect all wellheads and fittings for leaks.
