8. The Water Commissioners responsible for the administration of this plan are Mr. Robert
Stahl, 9378 WCR 25, Fort Lupton, CO 80621, phone no. [phone] and Mr. Scott
Edgar, 1735 Dolores River Drive, Windsor, CO 80550, phone no. [phone]. The
applicant shall maintain daily records of all diversions, replacements, and the amount of
water used for each particular purpose. The applicant shall provide a report of these
records to the division engineer and the water commissioners on a monthly basis on a
form approved by them. The accounting must be submitted within thirty (30)
calendar days of the end of the month for which the accounting is being made.
In addition, the applicant shall submit a report from each entity making replacements
using fully consumable effluent; for this plan, that entity is the City of Longmont. The
report shall include an accounting of all wastewater plant water effluent controlled by
each entity, showing the total volume of water under its control at the various
wastewater treatment plants, and the amount committed to each of the recipients of the
water.
9. All releases of replacement water must be sufficient to cover all out of priority depletions
and be made under the direction and/or approval of the water commissioner. The
replacement may be aggregated to maximize beneficial use. The water commissioner
and/or division engineer shall determine the rate and timing of an aggregated release.
10. Approval of this plan is for the purposes as stated herein. Any additional uses of this
water must first be approved by this office.
11. The name, mailing address, and phone number of the contact person who will be
responsible for operation and accounting of this plan must be provided on the
accounting forms to the division engineer and water commissioner.
12. This substitute water supply plan may be revoked or modified at any time should it be
determined that injury to other water rights has or will occur as a result of this plan.
13. 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.
14. The decision of the state engineer shall have no precedential or evidentiary force, shall
not create any presumptions, shift the burden of proof, or serve as a defense in any
water court case or any other legal action that may be initiated concerning the substitute
water supply plan. This decision shall not bind the State Engineer to act in a similar
manner in any other applications involving other plans or in any proposed renewal of this
plan, and shall not imply concurrence with any findings of fact or conclusions of law
contained herein, or with the engineering methodologies used by the Applicant.
