<br />Soon after man's arrival at Greeley, Colorado,-the <br />Ogilvie Ditch and The Greeley Irrigation Company were formed <br />to divert Cache La rou:re water for irrigation purposes, and <br />the area of proposed mining utilized water from both ditches. <br />In addition, four adjudicated wells were drilled to Supplement <br />irrigation. All of the wells will necessarily be abandoned <br />during mini»g; Ogilvie Ditch rights were abandoned following. <br />the 1965 flood of the Cache La Poudre River; and, 5 shares <br />of The Greeley Irrigation Company, Canal No. 3, are immediately <br />available for augmentation. <br />Phreatophytes, according to U. S. Geological Survey <br />Water-Supply Paper 1423, which are indigenous to the area to <br />be mined, normally used by expiation 2 to 4 acre £eet or 24 <br />to 48 inces of water annually. Alfalfa, a phreatophyte, <br />uses 1.9 acre feet or approximately 23 inches of water <br />annually according to the June 1976 Soil Conservation Service <br />Report, Crop Consumptive Irri ation Requirements and Irrigation <br />Efficiency Coeffic- e is For T e United Sta- test TFe average <br />crop consumptive irrigation requirement in Colorado is 1.5 <br />acre feet or 18 inches of water annually, according to the <br />June 1976 Soil Conservation Service Report, Crop C~on~sum~ti~ve <br />Irr~i~ati_on~ Re uirements and Irrigation Eff~ici~ency Coefffexents <br />For- Trite States. 3 In view of the fa- cwt orig~n~-~- <br />natural use and crop use is the same and in many cases <br />exceeds the estimated 18 inches net loss of water anticipated <br />by turning the mining area into a lake, and the fact that <br />adequate water historically has been provided to the area <br />first by nature and later by irrigation, it is safe to' <br />assume that there is no need for water agumentation.~ <br />For the matter of record the following data is provided: <br />1. The. four adjudicated wells which will ultimately be <br />abandoned are: <br />W-7552, United Minerals Corporation Well No. 1, located <br />in the SE NWT of Section 10, Township 5 North, Range 65 West, <br />at a point 2040 feet South and 2480 feet East of the NW <br />corner of said Section 10. Rated 1.1 cfs. <br />w-7553, United Minerals Corporation Well No. 2, located <br />in the NW W: of Section 10, Township 5 North,- Range 65 <br />West, at a point 380 feet South and 1080 feet East of the NW <br />corner of said Section 10. Rated 2.0 cfs. <br />-4b- <br />
