., <br />Mr. Peter Wayland Page 2 <br />Kirtright Pit-M86-123 <br />January 19, 2005 <br />Please provide a more detailed explanation on how the Hillsborough Ditch water would be <br />used to provide augmentation credits. The water should be diverted in priorityat the ditch headgate, <br />conveyed to the property, then measured and turned back to the Big Thomson River. Please <br />indicate if a measuring structure exists. <br />In addition since the 1 share of the Hillsborough Ditch were used to irrigate all the historic <br />Kirtright Farm lands and since only a portion of those lands are being dried up please provide a <br />determination of the numbers of shares to be committed to this plan. Please provide evidence that <br />the total Hillsborough Ditch diversion listed in Table AI.4 only include water that the 7 share is <br />entitled to and that may be used for augmentation. Diversion claimed as the basis for historic <br />consumptive use should not include C-BT water owned by others and carried in the ditch <br />Please provide information that no part of the historic potential consumptive use was <br />satisfied through subirrigation. If subirrigation is present, please adjust the water budget to account <br />for crop water use provided by groundwater. <br />A portion of the replacement water for this pit will come from water leased by Coulson <br />Excavating Company from the City of Loveland. Coulson Excavating Company is entitled to receive <br />annually 100 acre-feet of fully consumable water. Since water from this lease is to be used also for <br />Brownwood Pit (M79-059), SH287-Borrow Pit and Boyd Pit (M2000-122) please indicate how many <br />acre-feet of the total 100 acre-feet will be dedicated to each of the pits listed above. <br />Please send the requested information to this office as soon as possible. The review will <br />continue after receipt of the items requested. Please contact me at this office if you have any <br />questions concerning this matter. <br />Sincerely, <br />~~~~G'~ <br />loans Comaniciu, E.I.T. <br />Water Resource Engineer <br />cc: Dave Nettles, Assistant Division Engineer <br />Fred Renner, Water Commissioner District 4 <br />Division of Minerals and Geology <br />
