<br />Dear Ms. Keedy:
<br />We have reviewed your letter dated June 18, 2013 requesting renewal of the current
<br />Substitute Water Supply Plan ( "SWSP ") for the above mentioned gravel pits. The SWSP is a
<br />combined replacement plan that identifies replacement sources to cover depletions from two
<br />adjacent mine sites operated by Ready Mixed Concrete Company ( "RMCC "). It was most
<br />recently approved on August 8, 2011 and is valid through July 31, 2013. That renewal fee for
<br />two SWSPs of $514 was received (receipt no. 3660555). Prior to the issuance of a renewal, on
<br />September 24, 2013, we received a request to amend the SWSP. This approval addresses
<br />both the original renewal and the amendment request.
<br />Plan Operation
<br />This plan will replace depletions resulting from mining operations at the Bromley Lakes
<br />site (WDID 0203049 well permit 76711 -17). The Bromley Lakes Pit, DRMS permit no. M -1987-
<br />049, was amended on November 16, 2009 to incorporate the Ready Mixed Pit No. 1, DRMS
<br />permit no. M- 1985 -017, into the Bromley Lakes permitted area. Therefore, for the purpose of
<br />this SWSP, the Ready Mixed Pit No. 1 is considered part of the Bromley Lakes site. The
<br />Bromley Lakes site covers approximately 600 acres located between the South Platte River and
<br />the City of Brighton, consisting of:
<br />• Erger's Pond (lined), owned by the City of Brighton,
<br />• Kenneth Mitchell Lake (lined, land bridge to be mined), owned by the City of
<br />Brighton,
<br />• Bromley Lakes Cell 2 (mined and being backfilled),
<br />• Bromley Lakes Cell 3 / Pit No. 1 (f.k.a. Ready Mixed Pit) (lined and nearly completed
<br />mined),
<br />• Bromley Lakes Lot 2 (f.k.a. Arends, Archuleta, and Reinoehl properties) (partially
<br />lined and partially mined),
