this plan.
September 26, 2003
6. Copies of an approved lease with Denver for 65 acre-feet of replacement water must be
submitted to this office, the division engineer, and the water commissioner within 30 days of
the date of this approval for this plan to remain valid. Such lease is to be obtained in
accordance with fhe September 25, 2003 fetter from Denver Wafer to Anne J. Castle on behalf
of Campbell's C-Ment Contracting.
The replacement water that is the subject of this plan cannot be sold or leased to any other
entity. As a condition of subsequent renewals of this substitute water supply plan, the
replacement water must be appurtenant to this site until a plan for augmentation is obtained, or
the pit has been lined. A copy of this approval letter should be recorded with the County Clerk
and Recorder. All replacement water must be concurrent with depletions in quantity, timing,
and locations.
8. 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 the accounting forms to the division
engineer and water commissioner.
9. Adequate accounting of depletions and replacement must be provided to the division engineer
in Greeley and the water commissioner on a monthly basis or other interval acceptable to both
of them. A proposed accounting form must be provided to the division engineer and such form
is subject to modification and approval by the division engineer. All amounts shall be in acre-
feet.
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.
11. 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.
12. If reclamation of this mine site produces 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 lease three (3) years prior to the completion of mining to include, but not be limited to,
long-term evaporation losses. If a lined pond results after reclamation, replacement of lagged
depletions shall continue until there is no longer an effect on stream flow. Granting of this plan
does not imply approval by this office of any such court application(s).
13. In accordance with amendments to §25-8-202(7), C.R.S., and Senate Bill 89-181 Rules and
Regulations adopted on February 4, 1992, the State Engineer shall determine if the substitute
supply is of a quality to meet requirements of use to which the senior appropriation receiving
the substituted supply has normally been put. As such, water quality data or analyses may be
requested at any time to determine if the requirements of use of the senior appropriator are
met.
14. This gravel pit is in the Rocky Mountain Arsenal area where ground water contamination may
be encountered. The operator of this pit should contact the Tri-County Health Department or
the EPA for more details concerning the likelihood of encountering this contamination and the
procedures and precautions needed while operating a gravel mining operation at this site.
