<br />.3 acre-feet per year/lot x .10 . .42 acre-feet per year. An analysis <br />~ by Glover's method (Transient Ground Water Hydraulics, Chapter 8) <br />using a saturated thickness of the lower Arapahoe of 80 feet, a <br />permeability of 1 meter per day (.00003819 feet/sec.), and a specific <br />• yield of 15%. and using a distance of 5} miles for the nearest point <br />where the Arapahoe would subcrop in the river alluvium (see attached <br />supporting data), indicates that the percentage. of water which would <br />be supplied by the river to the lower Arapahoe, after a 100-year <br />• <br />period, would be .0104. This the maximum amount of in-house use <br />~ water supplied by the stream would be .0044 acre-feet per year, a <br />negligible amount. <br />• <br />If the State ~hgineer's Office will not accept a non-tributary <br />definition of the lower Arapahoe, make-up water for in-house consump- <br />• tive use will be supplied through the augmentation program. <br />It is currently proposed to supply in-house and front yard irrigation <br />water from the well and back yard irrigation from a ditch system. <br />• .. <br />However, if sufficient water is produced from the Arapahoe well well <br />water may be used for the entire irrigation. <br />• All property owners in the subdivision will be members of the water <br />system and the system will be run by an elected board. The associa- <br />tion will be empowered to levy fines which will be a lien of the <br />• property, for any non-compliance with water use restrictions. There <br />will be a sliding scale for water rates which will tend to encourage <br />conservation of water. The board will have the power to enforce the <br />• <br />2 <br />• <br />• <br /> <br />• <br />• <br />
