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 each entity making replacements; for this plan, those entities are the City of Greeley, Consolidated Mutual Water_Company and the Saint Vrain Left Hand Water Conservancy District. 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. 8. Applicant shall follow the accounting and recharge protocols as referenced in the attached documents for the operation of this SWSP. 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(s). The replacement may be aggregated to maximize beneficial use. The Water Commissioner(s) and/or Division Engineer shall determine the rate and timing of an aggregated release._~ ~.----,~,..... .-....~.,....a 10.

The use of replacement water must be in compliance with all agreements with the providers of replacement water. 11. Dewatering at the pits 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 mining, a plan must be submitted that species how the post pumping dewatering depletions will be replaced in time, place and amount. 12.
