("Titan" or "Applicant"). Notice was served to all subscribers to the Division 2 SWSP <br /> notification list on September 21, 2021. Comments were received from Thomas Kennedy at RESPEC, <br /> and Ayrton Hendrix at Hendrix Wai Engineering, Inc., on behalf of the City of Salida during the 35-day <br /> comment period. The $300 filing fee has been received and given receipt no. 10015568. <br /> An application for approval of a change of water right or plan for augmentation has not been filed with <br /> the water court and the depletions associated with the proposed water uses will not exceed five years, <br /> therefore this request has been submitted pursuant to § 37-92-308(5), C.R.S. In accordance with S <br /> 37-92-308(5), C.R.S., SWSPs may be approved for new water use plans involving out-of-priority <br /> diversions or a change of water right, if no application for approval of a plan for augmentation or a <br /> change of water right has been filed with the water court and the depletions associated with such <br /> water use plan or change will be for a limited duration not to exceed five years. This is the second <br /> year of approval for this SWSP. <br /> SWSP OPERATION <br /> The Box Creek Placer Mine is a gold placer operation operated by Titan Au, Inc.
