Mr. Andrew Rodriguez December 21, 2004 Page 3 6. The Water Commissioner responsible for the administration of this plan is Mr. Robert Stahl, 9378 WCR 25, Fort Lupton, CO 80621, phone no. (303) 857-0742. The applicant shall maintain daily records of all diversions, replacements, and the amount of water used far each particular purpose. The applicant shall provide a report of these records to the Division Engineer and the Water Commissioner on a monthly basis on a form approved by them. The accounting must be submitted within five (5) calendar days of the end of the month for which the accounting is being made. in addition, the applicant shall submit a report from the entity making replacement; for this plan that entity is the City of Thornton. The report shall include an accounting of all of the Denver Metro wastewater plant water effluent controlled by Thomton, showing the total volume of water under its control and the amount committed to each of the recipients of the water. (The applicant and Thomton shall coordinate the implementation of this accounting with the Division Engineer. This condition will become effective 90 days after the above date of plan approval.) 7. The name, address, and phone number of a contact person who will be responsible for the operation and accounting of this plan must be provided on th'e accounting forms to the Division Engineer and Water Commissioner. 8. Dewatering at this site will produce delayed depletions to the stream system. As long as the pit is continuously dewatered, the water returned to the stream system should be adequate to offset the depletions. However, once dewatering at the site ceases the delayed depletions must be addressed. At least three years prior to completion of dewatering, a plan must be submitted that specifies how the post pumping dewatering depletions will be replaced, in time, place and amount. 9. The approval of this substitute water supply plan does not relieve the Applicant and/or the landowner of the requirement to obtain a Water Court decree approving a permanent plan for augmentation or mitigation to ensure the permanent replacement of all depletions, including long-term evaporation losses and lagged depletions after gravel mining operations have ceased. If reclamation of the mine site will produce a permanent water surface exposing groundwater to evaporation, an application for a plan for augmentation must be filed with the Division 1 Water Court at least three (3) years prior to the completion of mining, to include, but not be limited to, long-term evaporation losses and lagged depletions. If a lined pond results after reclamation, replacement of lagged depletions from mining and dewatering shall continue until there is no longer an effect on stream flow, 10. This substitute water supply plan may be revoked or modified at any time should it be determined that injury to other vested water rights has or will occur as a result of this plan.
