��',',)ain Mathes <br /> listed in Table 2, attached. Should the operator require additional operational losses of ground <br /> water at this site, a new SWSP must be obtained. <br /> 3. The mined cell must be maintained in a de-watered state to the extent that the exposed water <br /> surface area does not exceed a total of 13.8 acres including all ponds, collection areas, <br /> dewatering trenches, and return trenches. If the actual water surface exposure exceeds 13.8 <br /> acres, the additional evaporative depletion must be accounted for and replaced via a new SWSP <br /> obtained by the Applicant. <br /> 4. The consumption associated with this mining operation is limited to evaporation, dust <br /> suppression, and water lost in product not to exceed a total of 64.90 acre-feet in lagged <br /> depletions during the 2020 - 2021 plan year. All diversions for dust suppression must be <br /> metered in compliance with the Amended Rules Governing the Measurement of Tributary <br /> Ground Water Diversions Located in the Arkansas River Basin. A certified totalizing flow <br /> meter must be maintained. <br /> 5. AGUA/Fremont Paving agree to replace out-of-priority depletions to senior surface water rights in <br /> Colorado and depletions to usable Stateline flows occurring after the expiration date of this SWSP <br /> (March 31, 2021) that are caused by diversions of ground water during the term of this SWSP. <br /> 6. Releases of water by AGUA pursuant to this SWSP shall be coordinated with the Division Engineer <br /> and the Augmentation Coordinator and shall equal or exceed the depletions, and are to be <br /> replaced on a monthly basis. <br /> 7. Accounting of water in this SWSP, including excavated area, area of actual ground water <br /> exposure, pumping, stream depletions, and replacement water deliveries must be provided to the <br /> Water Commissioners (Doug.Hollister@state.co.us and Steve.Stratman@state.co.us) and Division <br /> Engineer (Augmentation.Coordinator@state.co.us) on forms and at times acceptable to them. <br /> Said accounting must be received by the 10t" of the month following the month being reported. <br /> The name, mailing address, and phone number of the contact person who is responsible for <br /> operation and accounting of this plan must be provided on the accounting forms. Accounting and <br /> reporting procedures are subject to approval and modification by the Division Engineer. <br /> 8. The approval of this SWSP does not relieve the Applicant and/or landowner of the requirement to <br /> 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 and <br /> lagged depletions after gravel mining operations have ceased. If reclamation of the mine site will <br /> produce a permanent water surface exposing ground water to evaporation, an application for a <br /> plan for augmentation must be filed with the Division 2 Water Court at least three (3) years prior <br /> to the completion of mining to include, but not be limited to, long-term evaporation losses and <br /> lagged depletions. If a lined pond results after reclamation, replacement of lagged depletions <br /> shall continue until there is no longer an effect on stream flow. Granting of this SWSP does not <br /> imply approval by this office of any such court application(s). <br /> 9. Dewatering at this site will produce delayed depletions to the stream system. As long as the pit is <br /> continuously dewatered, the water returned to the stream system should be adequate to offset <br /> the depletions attributable to the dewatering operation. Once dewatering at the site ceases, the <br />
