Walther <br />Executive Director <br />Hal D. Simpson, P.E. <br />State Engineer <br />CONDITIONS FOR APPROVAL <br />^ The proposed operation does not anticipate exposing groundwater. Therefore, exposure of <br />ground water must not occur during or after mining operations. <br />® The proposed operation will consume ground water by: ®evaporation, ^ dust control, ^ <br />reclamation, ®water removed in the mined product, ^ processing, ^ other <br />Prior to initiation of these uses of ground water, the applicant will need to obtain either a <br />gravel pit or other type of well permit, as applicable. However, prior to obtaining a permit, <br />an approved water supply plan or decreed plan for augmentation is required. <br />^ Prior to approving a well permit, the applicant must conduct a field inspection of the site and <br />document the locations of all wells within 600 feet of the permit area. The applicant must <br />then obtain a waiver of objection from all well owners with wells within 600 feet of the permit <br />area or request a hearing before the State Engineer. <br />^ Other: <br />COMMENTS/NOTES: The proposal states that 40,000 cubic yards of sand will be removed from <br />the Henderson Water Ski Club, LLC. Depletions due to water removed in the mined product must <br />be replaced. In addition the plan states that the excess water pumped from the ski lake will drain <br />to the retention basin and return to the Ski Lake. It must be shown that water is not lost to <br />evaporation due to this process. <br />
