UPPER ARKANSAS <br /> WATER CONSERVANCY <br /> DISTRICT <br /> AI <br /> IP <br /> December 16,2015 <br /> Jodie Tavares <br /> Loan Program Assistant <br /> 1313 Sherman St., Rm. 718 <br /> Denver,CO 80203 <br /> Subject: Request for Extension of Time for Performance in Loan Contract C150192 <br /> Dear Ms.Tavares; <br /> An extension for the subject contract was extended from March 23,2012 to December 31,2015 in order <br /> to complete the environmental impact statement for re-permitting of the Upper Arkansas Water <br /> Conservancy District's three South Arkansas reservoirs by the US Forest Service. Part of the loan <br /> contract was for the rehabilitation of one of these reservoirs, North Fork Reservoir,which rehabilitation <br /> was completed. The EIS has been underway for some time and has been dela' ed due to the US Forest <br /> Service's reassignment of their district personnel in the past 3 years. As of August 2015 a new District <br /> Ranger for the San Isabel Ranger Office has been assigned and also a biologist and hydrologist are now <br /> available from US Forest Service staff to complete the EIS. It is estimated that an additional three years <br /> will be needed to complete the EIS analysis and reach a record of decision for the issuance of term <br /> special use permits. <br /> Due to the above circumstances the District is requesting a three year extension to December 31,2018. <br /> Sincerely, , <br /> / itiC,e–P--0,4,`"------ <br /> Ral• "Terry"'Scanga 'r`.N` <br /> General Manager IZ"'> 1106 <br /> — <br /> .r-le • \Z/5t <br /> PHONE: 719-539-5425 ti FAX:719-539-7579#i P.O.
