CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL
I hereby approve the proposed SWSP in accordance with 537-90-137(11), C.R.S., subject to
the following conditions:
1. This SWSP shall be valid for the period of October 1, 2019 through September 30,
2020, unless otherwise revoked or superseded by decree. If this plan will not be
made absolute by a water court action by the plan's expiration date, a renewal
request must be submitted to this office and the Division 2 Office (please copy
Kathy Trask at Kathy.TraskCstate.co.us) with the statutory fee by July 1, 2020.
2. Future renewal requests for this site must include justification of the statute
under which the Applicant is seeking approval. If there will be no sand or gravel
mining, the Applicant will need to apply for a renewal pursuant to 537-92-308,
C.R.S., and the associated provisions shall apply. If depletions associated with the
water use will exceed five years of duration, the Applicant must have filed an
application for a plan for augmentation with the Division 2 Water Court in order to
apply for an SWSP pursuant to 537-92-308(4), C.R.S.
3. Well permit no. 78822-F was obtained for the current use and exposed pond
surface area of the gravel pit in accordance with 537-90-137(2) and (11), C.R.S.
WDID 1205065 is assigned to the gravel pit structure and should be included in all
reporting.
4. The total surface area of the groundwater exposed at the Parkdale Project site
must not exceed 5.0 acres during this SWSP period, which will result in a net
annual evaporative loss of 15.53 acre-feet (assuming no ice cover the months of
December, January, and February).
5. The annual amount of water used at the operation shall not exceed 24.00 acre-feet
for dust control and 8.86 acre-feet for water lost in the mined product. The
washed mined product will be charged a depletion of 2 percent by weight of the
material, and the unwashed mined product will be charged a depletion of 0
percent by weight of the material.
6. Total consumption at the Parkdale Project site must not exceed the
aforementioned amounts unless a new SWSP application is made and approved for
such.
7. Approval of this SWSP is for the purposes as stated herein. Any additional uses of
ground water must first be included in a new SWSP approved by this office.
8. Water used for aggregate washing ponds that does not infiltrate within 24 hours
may require a new SWSP to include additional acres of exposed surface area
subject to evaporation that will require additional replacement under the plan.
Field visits by the Water Commissioner may be made to confirm that the maximum
surface area of exposed ground water allowed by this plan (5.0 acres) is not
