21. This substitute water supply plan may be revoked or modified at any time should it be
determined that injury to other vested water rights has or wilt occur as a result of this plan.
Should this supply plan expire without renewal or be revoked prior to adjudication of a
permanent plan for augmentation, all use of ground water must cease immediately.
22. In accordance with amendments to S 25-8-202(7), C.R.S., and "Senate Bill 89-181 Rules and
Regulations" adopted on February 4, 1992, the State Engineer shall determine whether the
substitute supply is of a quality to meet requirements of use to which the senior appropriation
receiving the substitute supply has normally been put. As such, water quality data or analysis
may be requested at any time to determine if the water quality is appropriate for downstream
water users.
23. The decision of the state engineer shall have no precedential or evidentiary force, shall not
create any presumptions, shift the burden of proof, or serve as a defense in any pending water
court case or any other legal action that may be initiated concerning this plan. This decision
shall not bind the state engineer to act in a similar manner in any other applications involving
other plans, or in any proposed renewal of this plan, and shall not imply concurrence with any
findings of fact or conclusions of law contained herein, or with the engineering methodologies
used by the Applicant.
If you have any questions concerning this approval, please contact Michael Hein, Assistant
Division Engineer, in Greeley at [phone] or Sarah Brucker in Denver at [phone].
Sincerely,
