COLORADO 81507.2563 <br />REPLY TO September 14, 2006 <br />arm ov <br />Regulatory Branch (200675287.) <br />Mr. Dan Fillipi <br />O & G Environmental <br />11 Inverness Way South <br />Englewood, Colorado 80112 <br />Dear Mr. Fillipi: /~9 <br />We are responding to your request and submittal information <br />for an approved jurisdictional determination for the Hangs Ranch 9`~y~6 <br />project site. This approximately 210-acre site is located at the <br />Colorado River within Section 9, Township 6 South, Range 92 West, <br />Latitude 39° 32' 8.11", Longitude 107° 40' 17.8", Garxield <br />County, Colorado. <br />Based on available information, we concur with the estimate <br />of waters of the United States, as depicted on the September 6, <br />2006, Hangs Ranch Project site, 2006 Wetland Delineations map, <br />FigurEe 4 drawings prepared by 0 rx d 8nvironmantal Consultants. <br />There are approximately 950 feet of waters of the United States <br />(Colorado River) bordering the north portion of this property. <br />There are also approximately 7.32' acres of wetlands, within the <br />mapped area. We regulate these waters under Section 404 of the <br />Clean Watex Act since they are interstate waters of the United <br />States and adjacent wetlands to the Colorado River. <br />We also concur with the estimate of waters of the United <br />States that are artificially irrigated areae. Areas identified <br />as Section 9; Wet 03, Wet 02, Wet 04 and Wet 01 that total <br />approximately 7.0.03 acres would revert to upland if irrigation <br />ceased. we appreciate the additional monitoring well data <br />supplied by Colorado River Engineering, dated June 5, 2006 (Table <br />2 of your Addendum) to verify that these areae are solely <br />supported by irrigation. <br />We also understand that the area, identified on Figure 4 of <br />the September 6, 2006 Wetland Delineation Map exists as Potential <br />Wetland/Not Yet Delineated and may be evaluated at a later date. <br />Additionally, property areas north of Interstate Highway 70 and <br />within the highway right-of-way (approximately 98.3 acres) were <br />not delineated and remain un-verified by this office. <br />
