WATER RIGHT - Hamp Bell Ditch (Pueblo County) <br /> <br />CASE NUMBER - 84CW12 (Water Division 2) <br />, <br /> <br />TOTAL ACRES - 91 acres <br /> <br />TOTAL MOVED - 2.92 c.f.s. <br /> <br />% MOVED - 100% <br /> <br />ACREAGE DRIED UP TO DATE - 91 acres <br /> <br />FROM - Irrigator <br /> <br />TO - Valco, Inc. (Cement and Gravel Company - Industrial) <br /> <br />DATE - Used for gravel mining since 1973; 1984 application; 1991 Decree. No irrigation <br />since 1984. <br /> <br />PRICE - unknown <br /> <br />DECREED TERMS AND CONDITIONS - <br /> <br />- alternate place of storage in Pueblo Reservoir <br /> <br />- no decreed change of type of use <br /> <br />- no historic consumptive use determination <br /> <br />- limit to April - October 31 irrigation. <br /> <br />AGRICULTURAL IMPACTS - Loss of 91 acres of agricultural production. <br /> <br />ECONOMIC IMPACTS - Similar to that of the Bessemer, but on a more limited scale. <br /> <br />SOCIAL IMPACTS - Limited when compared to the Bessemer Ditch because the growth in <br />the area tends to be more recreational. <br /> <br />ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS - Water to be used for gravel pit land reclamation along a <br />growing recreation corridor on the edge of the city. May have some positive impacts. <br /> <br />COMMENTS - The lands are on Pueblo's western edge and are largely surrounded by urban <br />growth. The Diversion works were changed by the construction of Pueblo Reservoir dam just to <br />the west. The water is also used for gravel pit evaporation replacement, but through a temporary <br />substitute supply plan rather than by court decree. <br /> <br />Most information is extracted from the decree; research by Kevin Pratt; impacts by Bill <br />Milenski <br /> <br />A2-5 <br />
