Mr. Branden Effland <br />Worthing SWSP <br />February 4, 2014 <br />Page 3 <br />2. Well Permit No. 76903 -F has been obtained for the gravel pit in accordance with § 37 -90- <br />137(2) and (11), C.R.S. <br />3. The total surface area of the ground water exposed after December 31, 1980 must not exceed <br />4.11 acres, which results in an annual evaporative loss of 12.02 acre -feet. <br />4. The area receiving credit as being exposed prior to January 1, 1981 is tied to the location as <br />depicted in Figure 4 — Final Reclamation Plan and cannot be reallocated to any other areas <br />either inside or outside of the mining permit boundary. <br />5. The total amount of water used for dust control at the Site must not exceed 4.0 acre -foot per <br />year. <br />6. All pumping for dust control shall be measured in a manner acceptable to the division <br />engineer. <br />7. Total consumption at the Site must not exceed the aforementioned amount unless an <br />amendment is made to this plan. <br />8. Approval of this plan is for the purposes as stated herein. Any additional uses of this water <br />must first be approved by this office. <br />9. All releases of replacement water must be sufficient to cover all out -of- priority depletions in <br />time, place, and amount and must be made under the direction and /or the approval of the <br />water commissioner. <br />10. Conveyance loss for delivery of augmentation water is subject to assessment and modification <br />as determined by the division engineer. Currently 0.5% per mile conveyance loss is being <br />assessed, subject to change depending upon current conditions. <br />11. The replacement water that is the subject of this plan cannot be sold or leased to any other <br />entity. As a condition of subsequent renewals of this substitute water supply plan, the <br />replacement water must be appurtenant to this site until a plan for augmentation is obtained. <br />12. Adequate accounting of depletions and replacements must be provided to the Division <br />Engineer in Greeley (Div 1 Accounting (cDstate. co. us) and the water commissioner (William <br />Schneider, William. Schneidera- state.co.us) on a monthly basis. All amounts shall be in acre - <br />feet. All submitted accounting shall conform to the Administration Protocol "Augmentation <br />Plan Accounting, Division One — South Platte River" (attached.) <br />Additionally, it is the Applicants responsibility to ensure that the City of Aurora is including all <br />replacements made on behalf of this SWSP in their accounting that is submitted to the Division <br />Engineer (WDID 0802593 — Aurora Reuse). The applicant shall only claim the replacements <br />released by The City of Aurora made on behalf of the SWSP, being the amount recorded in <br />Aurora's accounting. The applicant must verify and ensure that replacements are made <br />according to the release schedule and that the claimed amounts match the amounts recorded <br />in Aurora's accounting. <br />13. The name, mailing address, and phone number of the contact person who will be responsible <br />for operation and accounting of this plan must be provided on the accounting forms to the <br />Division Engineer and Water Commissioner. <br />14. The approval of this SWSP does not relieve the Applicant and /or landowner of the requirement <br />to obtain a Water Court decree approving a permanent plan for augmentation or mitigation to <br />ensure the permanent replacement of all depletions, including long -term evaporation losses <br />and lagged depletions after gravel mining operations have ceased. If reclamation of the mine <br />site will produce a permanent water surface exposing groundwater to evaporation, an <br />
