Decree <br /> Case No. 04CW6 <br /> adjacent the Recharge Pit. The stage-area-capacity table must be approved <br /> by the Water Commissioner. <br /> 23.2. The recharge pit shall be constructed so as to not intercept groundwater at <br /> any time during the year. <br /> 23.3. The flow into and out of the Recharge Pit must be metered and equipped <br /> with a continuous flow recording devices. Each measuring device must be <br /> at least as accurate as a Parshall flume. <br /> 23.4. All recharge areas must be maintained in a way so as to minimize <br /> consumptive use of the water by vegetation. The Recharge Pit may not be <br /> located within or upgradient of any area that is being irrigated or where <br /> crops are being grown. <br /> 23.5. Net evaporative losses must be subtracted from the volume of water <br /> delivered to the Recharge Pit each day that the Recharge Pit has a visible <br /> water level. If the Recharge Pit does not have a stage-area-capacity table, <br /> the maximum surface area of the Recharge Pit must be used to determine <br /> evaporative losses. <br /> 23.6. Evapotranspiration losses from vegetation located within the Recharge Pit <br /> shall be assessed only to the extent that there is vegetation within the <br /> confines of the Recharge Pit. The daily volume of water lost to <br /> evapotranspiration by vegetation shall be calculated by multiplying the <br /> number of acres of the Recharge Pit covered with vegetation in a given <br /> month by the following factors(in feet)during the two months following <br /> any month in which water is in the Recharge Pit, to arrive at an amount in <br /> acre-feet consumed by vegetation. <br /> Table 8 Vegetation Factors (in feet) <br /> Apr May Jun Jul AugSe Oct <br /> 0.08 0.16 0.27 0.40 0.35 0.22 0.08 <br /> 23.7. The timing of accretions to the Cache la Poudre River from the Recharge Pit <br /> shall be calculated using the IDS AWAS program (or another program <br /> utilizing the Glover methodology), for determining the lagged groundwater <br /> return flows with the following hydrogeological parameters: X-Distance: <br /> 2,200 feet; W-Distance: 12,560 feet; Transmissivity: 30,000 gallons per <br /> day/foot; Specific Yield: 0.2. <br /> 23.8. The Recharge Pit shall only be used for deliveries of the Water Rights for <br /> recharge pursuant to this augmentation plan. All other uses of the Recharge <br /> 9 <br />
