Smith property east of <br />Aurora, Colorado: <br />1. Permit Application Form 6 $25.00 Permit Fee. <br />2. Affidavit attesting to a lease of the subject property. <br />3. A Coal Creek Quadrangle Map of the Colorado Department of <br />Natural Resources depicting the boundary and location of the <br />subject property. <br />The well is to be constructed for a co®ercial masonry sand operation which <br />will require process water to wash the sand during screening and grading. <br />The water will be pumped from a pit well adjacent to the washing plant area, <br />and piped to a boil box and spray bars located at the screens. The wash <br />water then flows through a sand screw reservoir and settling pond, and <br />is returned to the pit well for reuse. The water use is essentially a <br />closed system which will not affect the quality of the subsurface supply from <br />which it is obtained. Consumption of process water is minimal and occurs <br />by evaporation during the screening operation and from the surfaces of the <br />sand screw reservoir and settling pond. Quantitatively, of the estimated <br />327.5 acre feet of water pumped through the system annually, approximately <br />3.1 acre feet or 0.9! will be consumed. <br />An alternate method of extraction of the materials will be the operation of <br />a small capacity dredge to remove the sands and silt and pump the slurry <br />by pipeline directly to the washing plant area for processing. In such a <br />case process water will not be required from the pit well, but the dredge <br />water will return to the pit well via the settling pond after the washing <br />operation. This alternate point of pumping will remain within the leased <br />tract as stated in Item N7 of the application. <br />
