PM <br />Water Division 4, Water District 28, Gunnison County <br />Deaz Craig: <br />Enclosed is the application for approval of a substitute water supply plan pursuant to <br />C.R.S. § 37-90-137 for the above referenced facility. The project is located southeast of <br />Gunnison, along Tomichi Creek, which is tributary to the Gunnison River. Most of the values <br />used in this application were taken from the decree in Case No. 96CW267. Due to time <br />constraints and an adequate water supply, the bases for these values have not been analyzed. <br />Wetlands credit have not been claimed. Therefore, Varra Companies, Inc. reserves its right to <br />modify these values in future renewal applications. <br />The project's water use is evaporation from ground water exposed after December 31, <br />1980, dust control, and water lost with the product. The projected annual use during mining is <br />97.46 acre-feet. The water supply used for the operation derives from ownership in the Griffmg <br />No. 1 Ditch. An additional 54.46 acres of land irrigated by this ditch will be dried up. <br />Please let me know if there are any questions or comments. <br />Sincer~l~ <br />Cheryl Signs, P.
