r two or more weeks. Mel Staats would pull all of the water out of the draw before it reached FC and use it for another place of his, so until he was done with the water, there was no water irrigate WFC permitted area. This is also documented also shows on the map that Garveys property has 21 shares irrigating 51 acres #12. This shows ;ht there that 1 share will do at least 2 acres of ground. If I could take all of you over there id show you the areas I irrigated with and which areas were totally to the electric pump and unp and which properties were irrigated by the diesel pump, you would see that the water could it be moved from one area to another as WFC has indicated on their map. The electric pump, en you would totally understand. The Calamity draw irrigation could only irrigate a few areas id all of the rest was irrigated by the diesel pump. The diesel pump was irrigating 157 acres ith only 73 shares, this is also all documented. This was also with the head gate turned down. ow, they have gone to everything in a pipe, but the fact still is true on the Calamity draw water td this can irrigate certain small areas. is trying to prove there is not sufficient water but they also have taken water shares and I them to areas not in the permit area, this is also documented. Refernece area was irrigated with only two shares of water at times . WFC pulled all of their T from that area and the only water that was used to irrigated the reference area was my onw cnal two shares. This area still was great and maintained good grazing. This area was )wed and also fertilized by myself and by Wayne Buttons. in the revision and on the map have been made to seem what they really are not. tFC on the map says they have a total of 75 shares to do all fields. The fields that are listed on e map that can only be irrigated with WFC water since Calamity water(I 00shares) is not terchangeable with any of those properties, WFC is even NOW irrigating more than 150 acres ith only 75 shares of water. 12, 413, #41,#l,#20 were all planted with not only WFC seed and rates but 15 pounds per acre f alfalfa seed was added to the mix at my own expense. This was to raise production rates and ecause any farmer knows if you plant alfalfa, it will eventually go to grass over the years. The ay yields were very high when I was there, the first few years. As the grasses, like now, and lso because of continuously drowning the alfalfa out,(especially on Garveys and Burbridges) ihich is very evident in the last couple years, the yields have been way down. This is also due to ie 10 year rule and these figures are also documented. have not finished reading this yet, I will continue to send letters where things are not correct. rs that were furnished to WFC are now being used against us, such as the production rate These figures were lowered to help WFC get bond release and now in the revision they are used to show that this production was never made, again everythin taken out of context. in these letters where they figured their production rate and took averages, the Morgan ;rty was at 0 to be figured into the average but that was because there was nothing but
