Example: <br />• An example of CWI owned water rights used as replacement water follows. The <br />specific example to be discussed is the F.oberts-Stucker Overland Ditch water <br />Replacement Plan. For a detailed description of the Overland Ditch mitigation <br />plan, please refer to the East Roatcap Water Replacement Plan in the Water <br />Repla~nent Appendix, Volume 5-A. <br />CWI could deliver West Reservoir water to both Oak Mesa Ditch and Roberts-Stucker <br />Ditch via Pain Roatcap CYeek. If transportation improvements cannot offset los- <br />ses due `o diversion around the permit area, Wtist Reservoir water would be used <br />to supplement fl cws. Calculations have been canpleted by HydroDynamics of Den- <br />ver, Colorado, on the water available for augmentation purposes in West Reser- <br />voir. 'That information is contained on the CWI owned water rights for West Foat- <br />cap Drainage Basin in the CWI owned Water Rights Appendix, Volume 5-A. Those <br />calculations by HydroDynamics shwa that 23.63 acre feet are available. CWI does <br />not intend to obtain water rights necessary to augment all fl ors in the West <br />Roatcap Drainage Basin or any kasin. That is not required due to the other pro- <br />visions of the Water Replacement Plan. <br />• As stated throughout the Water Replacement Plan, CWI does not propose mining <br />under any stream channels in the initial permit term. L1~ring this time, addi- <br />tional information may be gathered on subsidence-induced problems and their <br />effect on hydrology. 'The Water Replaoment Plans are open to evaluation, <br />appraisal, and justified changes. CWI, through literature research, scientific <br />study, regular monitoring, and technical analysis, will constantly update these <br />water replacement plans with ttie current state of the art. <br /> <br />
