<br />L) MIKA AG <br /> <br />.1.... <br /> <br />April 26, 2006 <br /> <br />Todd Doherty <br />Colorado Water Conservation Board <br />1313 Sherman St. <br />Room 721 <br />Denver, CO 80203 <br /> <br />Ref: North fork of Escalante Creek ISF Appropriation <br /> <br />Dear Messrs: <br /> <br />I own the private land and associated water rights on the North Fork of Escalante Creek. <br />Any practical access to this creek requires trespass across our private land. I contest your <br />attempt to try to establish an instream flow water right on the North Fork of Escalante <br />Creek and ask that you not proceed with your intent to appropriate this stream. The BLM <br />recommendation is incomplete and nonfactua1 in many areas. Many of their assumptions <br />are flawed. I know because I have worked with and watched this stream for the last 15 <br />years. In feel your staffhas not had the time or the factual input to adequately make an <br />accurate recommendation to you. I believe the flow rates are excessive and the timing of <br />the flow rates are not in correlation with the actual stream flow. Therefore I ask that you <br />not proceed any further with this action. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Once again, I ask that you not move forward to appropriate an ISF on the North Fork of <br />Escalante Creek. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br />c.: <br /> <br />Ri\h d P \M' '11 <br />car .ler <br />Escalante Ranch <br /> <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />7535 HILLTOP CIRCLE .
