for any time that the pit is not completely covered by ice. Computation of the net evaporation during any time that the pit is not completely covered by ice shall be determined as the pro-rata amount of the monthly gross evaporation rate distribution amount identified in the State Engineer's General Guidelines for Substitute Supply Plans for Sand and Gravel Pits, subtracting the pro-rata amount of the effective precipitation for that period. 10. Applicant should refer to the Augmentation Plan Accounting Protocol for the operation of this SWSP. 11. The name, address, and phone number of the contact person who will be responsible for the operation and accounting of this SWSP must be provided with the accounting forms to the Division Engineer and Water Commissioner. 12. The Applicant shall provide daily accounting (including, but not limited to diversions, depletions, replacement sources, and river calls) on a monthly basis. The accounting must be uploaded to the CDSS Online Reporting Tool within 30 days of the end of the month for which the accounting applies (https://dwr.state.co.us/Tools/reporting). Instructions for using the tool are available on the Division of Water Resources website on the "Services" —> "Data & Information" page under the heading of Online Data Submittal. Accounting and reporting procedures are subject to approval and modification by the Division Engineer. Accounting forms need to identify the WDID number for each structure operating under this SWSP. Additional information regarding accounting requirements can be found in the attached Augmentation Plan Accounting Protocol. NOTE: Monthly accounting, even during the winter non-irrigation season, is required. Additionally, this office requests that the accounting identify all fully consumable effluent from Broomfield's wastewater treatment plant controlled by Broomfield, showing the total volume of water under its control and the amount committed to each of the recipients of the water. 13. In order to prevent injury to other water rights, the Division Engineer and Water Commissioner must be able to administer Applicants' replacement water past headgates on the river at times when those headgates would otherwise be legally entitled to divert all available flow in or "sweep" the South Platte River or its tributaries. Applicant shall not receive credit for replacement of depletions to the South Platte River below such diversion structures unless bypass and measurement structures are in place to allow the Division Engineer and Water Commissioner to confirm that Applicant's replacement water is delivered past the headgates. In the event that delivery past dry-up points requires the use of a structure for which a carriage or use agreement with a third party is required, Applicant shall be responsible for securing such agreement. Until such time as the Applicant provides a copy of the carriage or use agreement to the Division Engineer and Water Commissioner, no credit will be allowed for replacement of depletions to the South Platte River below such diversion structure. 14. 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 substitute water supply plan expire without renewal or be revoked prior to adjudication of a permanent plan for augmentation, all excavation of product from below the water table, and all other use of water at the pit, must cease immediately. 15. 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 if this substitute water supply plan is of a quality to meet requirements of use to which the senior appropriation receiving the substitute supply has normally been put. As such, water quality data or analyses may be requested at any time to determine if the requirement of use of the senior appropriator is met.
