s • <br />State Engineer <br />December 4, 1985 <br />Page 2 <br />We estimate evaporation losses at approximately 3 acre- <br />feet/acre per year. Initially we anticipate exposing less than <br />one acre of ponded water per year to a maximum of 10 acres in <br />approximately 10 years. Through reclamation efforts it is hoped <br />that no more than 10 acres of water will be exposed to the atmos- <br />phere at any time during or after the operation of the pit. We <br />plan to purchase permanent water rights to augment these losses <br />or wi 11 purchase the water through the Pueblo Water Board. <br />We are still in the planning stages of our operation, but <br />we will be filing a pit permit application during the month of <br />December. Therefore, your comments and any assistance your of- <br />fice can supply to expedite our operation would be appreciated. <br />Should you have any questions or comments in this matter, <br />please feel free to call me at 589-5105. <br />Sincerely, <br />John T, Ungefug P.E. <br />Engineer <br />J TU:vm <br />
