Scott, Environmental Protection Specialist <br />CC: Division 1 Office, District 6 Water Commissioner <br />FROM: loana Comaniciu, P.E. <br />RE: Idaho Creek Resource Pit, File No. M-1991-123-SL02 <br />Operator: William Kobobel (303) 591-0952 <br />Sec. 20, Twp. 2 North, Rng. 68 West, 6th P.M., Weld County <br />COMMENTS: <br />William Kobobel has submitted a request for full reclamation responsibility release for the Idaho <br />Creek Resource Pit, Permit No. M-1991-123. Mining of the Idaho Creek Resource Pit resulted in the <br />creation of a lined reservoir known as: Kobobel CR5 Reservoir (WDID 0603378). The reservoir was <br />lined with a compacted clay liner. The liner for the reservoir was determined to meet the design <br />standards referenced in the August 1999 State Engineer Guidelines for Lining Criteria for Gravel <br />Pits, and was therefore approved on September 27, 2017. <br />The State Engineer's Office has no objection to the request for the full reclamation responsibility <br />release for the Idaho Creek Resource Pit. Water shall not be impounded in the reservoir except <br />pursuant to lawful diversions allowed by statute or decree. At all other times, all inflow of water <br />into the reservoir from any source, including precipitation and ground water inflows, shall be <br />removed by the applicant. <br />The applicant may contact the State Engineer's Office with any questions. <br />Office of the State Engineer <br />1313 Sherman Street, R4oin 821, Denver, CO 86203 P 303.866.3581 <br />www. water. state.co. us <br />
