September 27, 2006 <br />Office of the State Engineer <br />Colorado Dirision of water Resources <br />818 Centermial Bldg <br />1313 Sherman St. <br />Denver, CO 80203 <br />lze: Site description: Gravel pit operating on the west edge of Granby near the junction <br />of Highways 34 e~ 40, with proposed expansion into the Great Divide Head Lettuce <br />Colony. This operation is located in Water District 51. <br />Dear Sir. <br />Please note thaYattached is a copy-of the Mining commission's. report on the site <br />described above. Our understanding is that the Mining Commission isn't required to <br />notify you about this site. This particular site is of grave concern to those of us that live <br />in the great Diride Head Lettuce Colony that share the water table. I will be referencing <br />this report. <br />The water in the ponds memioned in the report has, in time past (actually until 2 nights <br />before inspection when it was backfilled)had been pumped out of those ponds and used <br />by the operators of this pit. We believe if they ere going to use water out of the ground in <br />that pit they need a well permit The operator claims they are using another water right <br />from an adjacent landowner. If that is coaect we feel it should go through the water <br />court so that it can be administered by the water cotnnrissioaer in district 51. We have <br />not been able to obtain any record of change of use of this water. Does your water <br />commissioner in district 51 administer this water for gravel pit use? <br />if you could please look et this situation and let us know what is correct and what is not? <br />Thank you for your tigne. <br /> <br />R16 .-gg~ <br />3C~o~ <br />7v-5 ~ ~ -~3~g 9 ~ <br />~~.~oX <br />c~t,t?t~•r•~{, <br />~o ~v y~ <br />(~ 9 ~ <br />Gooo lC; e ,Zooo @ ~a~a , ~~-~- <br />Sin IY, /! ~~~. <br />~t.~" _ <br />
