<br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />WHEREAS, the CWCB adopted by formal resolution operational considerations for the <br />Aspinall Unit as contained in the attached November 22, 1994 letter to the U.S. Bureau of <br />Reclamation; and <br /> <br />WHEREAS, the amounts of water applied for by the NPS are more than the minimum <br />amounts necessary to fulfill the primary purposes of the Black Canyon of the Gunnison <br />National Monument. <br /> <br />NOW THEREFORE, the NPS should modify its water right and quantification application as <br />follows: <br /> <br />. The water right administration date should be no earlier than the most junior decree date <br />for the Aspinall units. <br /> <br />. The water right should recognize the 60,000 AF subordination agreement signed July, <br />2000. <br /> <br />. The water right should be compatible with the priorities enumerated in the November 22, <br />1994 letter to Reclamation. <br /> <br />. The water right cannot dictate operations of the Aspinall Unit unless a valid contract with <br />Reclamation is obtained and has undergone appropriate NEP A compliance. <br /> <br />. The water right should not interfere with Colorado's development of its compact <br />apportioned waters nor adversely impact decreed water rights. <br /> <br />Done this 27th day of March 2001 <br /> <br />002701 <br />
