Recent conversation with Mr. Eldon Strid, ACZ, Inc., has indicated the
request of the Division for certain data regarding other permits and licenses
as have been obtained by Terror Creek Company in the construction and installation
of the load-out facility at Bowie, Colorado; as well as information concerning
water usage at the facility. This letter and the enclosed data are in response
to the Division's request.
Among data enclosed is a copy of the License Agreement, Contract Number
3-07-4A-L0070, between Terror Creek Company and the United States Department of
the Interior, Bureau of Reclamation, with concurrance of the Fire Mountain Canal
Company as Managing Entity for the Bureau of Reclamation. This license grants
Terror Creek the right to cross U.S. easement land along the Fire Mountain Canal
by constructing a bridge (box culvert) across the canal.
Also enclosed is an executed copy of the Permit For Access to State Highway
133 as granted by the State of Colorado, Department of Highways, for the const-
ruction of an access approach to said highway.
In regard to the adequacy of the water right of Terror Creek Company: As
the Division is aware, Terror Creek Company owns the property on which the load-
out facility is being constructed. As a part of the purchase, all water rights
and conveyence facilities of the Deer Trail Ditch upon the purchased property
were conveyed to Terror Creek.
The water right consists of 960 shares of Class II stock of the Deer Trail
Ditch Company. These shares provide Terror Creek with one-half of 0.25 second
feet of water from the Deer Trail Ditch. This right is adjudicated by water
decree 4k28, dated June 1, 1983, from the Hubbard Creek drainage of the North
Fork of the Gunnison River Drainage Basin.
