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 -F). 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), <br />'Office of the State Engineer <br />1313 Sherman Street, Suite 818 • Denver, CO 80203 • Phone: 303 -866 -3581 • Fax: 303 -866 -3589 <br />www.water.state.co.us <br />
