The impoundment appears <br /> to be located on private property and on an unamed draw tributary to Calamity Draw, <br /> tributary to San Miguel River within Township 46 North, Range 15 West, Section 6, N.M P.M. <br /> In accordance with Rule 11.1 of the Colorado Rules and Regulations for Dam Safety and Dam <br /> Construction, the hazard classification of this dam has been assessed as No Public Hazard and <br /> no submittal of plans or specifications is required prior to construction. The assignment of <br /> this hazard classification was based on visual observation of the present site conditions. A <br /> copy of the signed NOI is attached. An electronic copy will be maintained with the Division of <br /> Water Resources. <br /> Please note that a minimum of 3 feet of freeboard between the spillway and the dam crest is <br /> required. <br /> We understand this structure will be filled with CCC Ditch shares and used for stockwatering <br /> purposes. Please also note that this signed NOI does not in and of itself confer upon the owner <br /> a vested water right. The reservoir may only be filled when water is legally available. <br /> The requirements and recommendations provided herein are based on our review of the <br /> safety and water administration aspects of the proposed dam and the information provided in <br /> the submitted NOI.
