The applicant is seeking to change the type, place, manner, and season of <br />use of shares which it owns in two downstream senior irrigation rights on Clear Creek. <br />Applicant intends to re-divert these changed rights at a number of different structures <br />located on North Clear Creek. Since the changed rights are located downstream on Clear <br />Creek, the applicant will operate an upstream exchange to the structures at a rate of up to <br />4.1 cfs with a 1992 appropriation date. <br /> <br />CWCB Appropriations <br /> <br />The Board holds an instream flow decree on North Clear Creek for 1.5 cfs with an <br />appropriation date of December 11, 1987, which could be injured by this application. <br /> <br />Potential for Iniul)' <br /> <br />The upstream exchange of 4.1 cfs of senior water rights may deplete the Board's <br />instream flow right on North Clear Creek. Further; the proposed change in season of use <br />will result in an ~xpansion of use and may injure the Board's instream flow right. <br /> <br />Other Objectors <br /> <br />There are no other objectors in this case. However, at the time this memo was <br />prepared, the period for filing statements of opposition had not yet expired. <br />
