2024-2025 Chavers Mining Resources Substitute Water Supply Plan Page 5 of 8 July 25, 2024 a copy of the lease extension with the City of Aurora to this office by November 1, 2024 that includes adequate replacement water to replace all un-replaced depletions, after accounting for any transit losses. If this plan is not decreed in water court by the SWSP expiration date, a renewal request must be submitted to this office with the statutory fee of $257 no later than October 1, 2024 (or May 1, 2024 if extended). If a renewal request is received after the expiration date of this plan, it may be considered a request for a new SWSP and the $1,593 filing fee will apply. 2. During the plan period of August 1, 2024 through December 31, 2024 (or July 31, 2025 if the plan is extended), the above-described exposed surface area and depletion amounts for each use shall not be exceeded. 3. The Applicant must replace all out-of-priority depletions resulting from operation under this SWSP, including those lagged depletions that occur to the stream after the expiration date of this SWSP. 4. As part of any renewal of this SWSP, the Applicant must specify the proposed replacement source that will be used to replace all lagged depletions that result from operation under this SWSP, including those that extend beyond the approval period of the SWSP. If the intent is to obtain a short-term lease for such future replacement water an executed lease for depletions that extend beyond the SWSP approval period is not required, however the Applicant must demonstrate that there is a reasonable likelihood that such a lease could be obtained. 5. Approval of this SWSP is for the purposes as stated herein. This office must first approve any additional uses for the water. 6. All pumping for dust control shall be measured in a manner acceptable to the Division Engineer. 7. Well permit no. 80121-F was issued for the gravel pit site in accordance with sections 37-90-137(2) and (11), C.R.S. A new well permit must be obtained for the well in accordance with section 37-90- 137(2) and this SWSP since the proposed depletions and exposed groundwater surface area exceed the amounts permitted by permit no. 80121-F. Any application will be evaluated subsequent to approval of this SWSP. Application receipt no. 10036481 submitted on June 5,2024 is currently pending evaluation. The provisions of section 37-90-137(2), prohibit the issuance of a permit for a well to be located within 600 feet of any existing well, unless the State Engineer finds that circumstances so warrant after a hearing in accordance with the procedural rules in 2 CCR 402-5. The hearing will be waived if the Applicant is able to obtain statements from the owners of all wells within 600 feet, verifying that they have no objection to your use of the proposed well. 8. Well permit no. 80120-F (WDID 0206393) was issued in accordance with section 37-90-137(2), C.R.S. for the alluvial well used for the concrete production, and this permit remains valid. 9. The replacement water that is the subject of this SWSP cannot be sold or leased to any other entity. As a condition of subsequent renewals of this SWSP, the replacement water must be appurtenant to this site until a plan for augmentation is obtained. All replacement water must be concurrent with depletions in quantity, timing, and locations. 10. 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).
