? <br />the following year and exportmg more than 60,000 acre-feet of water tn any penod of ten consecutive <br />years are not permitted under the Decree, and, therefore, no new water related activities of these <br />types are contemplated. <br />In addition to existing uses in accordance with the Decree, Jackson C'ouinty's small population and <br />limited industry consume a small quantity of water under prior existing rights. Colorado does not <br />anticipate significant population growth in Jackson County during the term of the Cooperative <br />Agreement or the First Increment of the program. The population basf,line for Jackson County is <br />2022 people. Colorado estimates that the 2004 population for Jackson County is 1,554 people. <br />The State demographer does not predict the Jackson County population to exceed 2022 people by <br />the end of the First Increment. <br />Piscatorial, wildlife, and other environmental uses implemented on or before July 1, 1997 will <br />constitute existing uses. Any water diverted for new uses for these purposes implemented after July <br />1, 1997 will constitute new water related activities. <br />D. New Water Related Activities. <br />For purposes of the Program Cooperative Agreement, the parties agi-ee to the following: <br />Agriczrltural Water Use: Irrigation of more than 134,468 will constitute new water related <br />activities. The parties agree that net depletions (diversions less return flows) associated with <br />irrigating additional acres as measured at the Colorado - Wyoming state line equal .83 acre- <br />feet per acre during the irrigation season. Colorado does not expect ta have any new <br />depletions during the first increment. <br />2. Mtinicipal and industrial use (M&I): Colorado does not expect the Jackson County <br />population to exceed 2022 in the First Increment. When population in Jackson County <br />reaches 1900, Colorado will present a municipal and industriat new depletion plan to the <br />Governance Committee for approval. Similar to the methodology adopted for the South <br />Platte new depletion plan, new municipal and industrial water uses are assumed to be.27 acre- <br />feet per capita per year. Consumptive use is 35% of gross water use, unless otherwise reported <br />to the Governance Committee by the State of Colorado. The parties agree that the monthly <br />distribution of the depletive effect of this municipal and indu:strial water use is the same as <br />that defined for the South Platte Basin, unless otherwise reported to the Governance - <br />Committee by the State of Colorado. <br />3. Piscatorial, wildlife, and other environmental trses: To the extent that these uses are not <br />incidental to an existing or new irrigation use, such uses implemented after July l, 1997 will <br />constitute new water related activities. Net depletions associaired with such uses will be <br />determined &om Colorado Division of Water Resources information on actual annual net <br />depletions. It is expected that all piscatorial, wildlife, and other environmental uses will <br />have a federal nexus, but Colorado will monitor these uses through the Division of Water <br />Resources and the water court resumes for Water Division l.Vo. b. If there are signiftcant <br />piscatorial, wildlife, and other environmental uses occuning, which are not incidental to <br />irrigation uses, and that do not have a federal nexus, then Colorado will present new <br />depletion plan (to address these depletions) to the Governarice Committee for approval. <br />Colorado does not expect to have any new piscatorial, wildl[ife, or other environmental uses <br />(which are not incidental to irrigation uses) in the first increment <br />?. <br />October 24, 2006 Colorado Depletians Plan
