GSL Sand Et Gravel Substitute Water Supply Plan Page 5 of 5
December 19, 2022
16. The State Engineer may revoke this SWSP or add additional restrictions to its operation if at any
time the State Engineer determines that injury to other vested water rights has occurred or will
occur as a result of the operation of this SWSP. Should this SWSP expire without renewal or be
revoked prior to adjudication of a permanent plan for augmentation, all excavation of the product
from below the water table, and all other use of water at the pit, must cease immediately. In
addition, lack of timely accounting may prevent proper administration, which may lead to
revocation or modification of this plan.
17. In accordance with amendments to section 25-8-202(7), C.R.S., and Senate Bill 89-181 Rules and
Regulations adopted on February 4, 1992, the State Engineer shall determine whether the substitute
supply is of a quality to meet requirements of use to senior appropriators. As such, water quality
data or analysis may be requested at any time to determine if the water quality is appropriate for
downstream water users.
18. The decision of the State Engineer shall have no precedential or evidentiary force, shall not create
any presumptions, shift the burden of proof, or serve as a defense in any water court case or any
other legal action that may be initiated concerning the substitute water supply plan. This decision
shall not bind the State Engineer to act in a similar manner in any other applications involving other
plans or in any proposed renewal of this plan, and shall not imply concurrence with any findings of
fact or conclusions of law contained herein, or with the engineering methodologies used by the
Applicant.
