Application Summary
This is an application for approval of a plan for augmentation in Saguache County near the Town
of Saguache. The Applicant has constructed several ponds and ditches on his property and is
apparently diverting water out-of priority into these structures. The Applicant lists two sources
of augmentation: the Sheep Creek Ditch and Tarbell Ditch. The Applicant proposes to dry up
some lands under the Sheep Creek Ditch and apply the consumptive use credits to offset
evaporative depletions. The Applicant also proposes to purchase or lease transmountain water
from the Tarbell Ditch as an additional augmentation source.
