Suzanne L. Benton <br />February 22, 1996 <br />• Page 2 <br />Del Norte Pit. M ~78-071. 374 Pit. M-87-020 <br />Your letter refers to use of these pits in a recharge project with the Rio Grande <br />Canal Water UsE:rs Association and the San Luis Valley Water Conservancy District. The <br />use of these two pits in a recharge project does not relieve the county of the obligation to <br />replace evaporation from post-1980 ground water exposure. The recharge project does <br />not provide the required replacement water. Back filling, a plan for augmentation, or a <br />substitute water supply plan appears needed. <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />Keith Vander Horst <br />Water Resources Engineer <br />cc: Steve Vandiver, Division Engineer <br />Steve Baer, Water Commissioner <br />James Dillie, DMG <br />
