Addendum to Center of Colorado Water Conservancy District's Loan Application to CWCB for Smelter Pipeline Reservoir Project Page 1 Description of Center's Existing water rights and facilities. The Center of Colorado Water Conservancy District (Center) is a Title 37 water conservancy district and its boundaries encompass all of Park County. Center's mission is to preserve and develop the water resources of Park County for its citizens. Center is not a municipal water supplier to individual customers. As discussed below, Center co- owns with the Upper South Platte Water Conservancy District a blanket plan for augmentation and it supplies augmentation water to users throughout its service area. The Center's current water resource assets include: A. Center owns the Randall and Sessions Ditches, changed to municipal and augmentation uses in Case No. 2005CW111, District Court, Water Division No. 1. The Randall and Sessions Ditches are adjudicated for approximately 700 acre feet per year of consumptive use water. B. The James Tingle Reservoir, which is a 400 acre foot storage facility located in Park County near the Town of Jefferson. The CWCB loaned Center $454,500 for the construction of the reservoir pursuant to Loan No. C- 150276. The loan is current and the current principal balance is $375,659.62. The next annual payment of $54,649.70 is due to the CWCB on October 1, 2012. The James Tingle Reservoir (JTR) is jointly owned with the Centennial Water & Sanitation District (205 AF is owned by Centennial and 195 AF is owned by Center). 165 AF of Center's storage space in the JTR is used as the non - irrigation season return flow facility for the 05CW111 decree, and it owns 30 AF of excess storage capacity in the structure. Center and Centennial can store consumptive use credits from the Randall and Sessions Ditches in the JTR and they jointly adjudicated a junior water storage right for the facility in Case No. 09CW180, District Court, Water Division No. 1. C. Joint ownership with the Upper South Platte Water Conservancy District of 30 AF of consumptive use water in the Parmalee No. 2 and 3 Ditch and Flume Ditch on Deer Creek changed to municipal and augmentation uses in Case Nos. 02CW231 and 06CW270, District Court, Water Division No. 1. D. Center owns the Smelter Pipeline Reservoir adjacent to Mosquito Creek (SPR). The SPR is an existing 21 AF facility adjudicated in Case No. W -4322. Center adjudicated an enlargement of the SPR in Case No. 09CW145, District Court, Water Division No. 1. The existing structure seeps and the project for which this loan application is made is to enlarge and line the reservoir. E. Joint ownership with the Upper South Platte Water Conservancy District of a "blanket plan" for augmentation for the Center of Colorado and Upper South Platte service areas adjudicated in Case No. 2002CW389.
