LaSalle Rd. <br /> Montrose, CO 81401 <br /> 970-249-3061 <br /> EXHIBIT G <br /> WATER INFORMATION <br /> The irrigation system In this area was planned and built in the early part of this century. <br /> Early flow is run off from snow melt. Excess is collected in reservoirs and used later in the <br /> season. Original design was by Bureau of Reclamation. It Is now operated by Uncompaghre <br /> Valley Waters Users Association. The land receiving water was determined by soil classification. <br /> Areas with gravel near the surface receive no allocation. This pit Is a dry pit. Any water would <br /> have to come from wasted water from adjoining farm ground that has an allocation. The <br /> amended portion of this pit has an allocation for a large portion of it. But most was never used <br /> on it for economic reasons. With the mine added to the West, this land could never use this <br /> water because it would be at least 39 higher than the floor of adjoining Mine. With the water <br /> allocation and added waste water from adjoining land, this entire area could be irrigated with <br /> gravity flow. <br />
