KUIPER <br />State Engineer <br />`.;i_P i978 <br />TO: HARRIS SHERMAN, SECRETARY, MINED LAND RECLAMATION <br />FROM: DR. JERIS A. DANIELSON, DEPUTY STATE ENGINEER <br />SUBJECT: D & F ENTERPRISES, WELD COUNTY, APPLICATION FOR MINING <br />AND RECLAMATION PERMIT <br />As requested by your office, we have reviewed the application for a gravel <br />pit near Greeley. The applicant proposes to dewater the pit during the <br />mining phase and to allow three lakes totaling 50 surface acres to form <br />during the reclamation phase. An adjudicated irrigation well, which is <br />utilized as an alternate point of diversion to senior surface water rights, <br />is available to augment evaporation losses from the ponds, but no augmen- <br />tation plan seems to have been filed with the Water Court. Until the appli- <br />cant files such a plan, we cannot recommend approval of the proposed <br />operation. <br /> <br />JAD/SSH:mvf <br />.Danielson <br />cc: Jim Clark, Div.
