mining operations have ceased. If reclamation of the mine site will produce 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 least three (3) years prior
to the completion of mining to include, but not be limited to, long-term evaporation losses
and lagged depletions. If a lined pond results after reclamation, replacement of tagged
depletions shall continue until there is no longer an effect on stream flow.
8. The Water Commissioner responsible for the administration of this plan is Mr. Robert
Stahl, 9378 WCR 25, Fort Lupton, CO 80621, 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 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
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 wmmitted to each of the recipients of the
water.
9. Replacement water released from fully consumable sources identified above must be
decreed for augmentation use.
10. Applicant shall follow the accounting protocol as referenced in the attached document
for the operation of this SWSP.
11. 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.
12. Approval of this plan is for the purposes as stated herein. Any additional uses of this
water must first be approved by this office.
13. 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.
14. 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.
15. 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.
