The total surface area of the groundwater exposed at the gravel pit must not exceed 2 acres <br />during the approval period of this SWSP, resulting in an annual evaporative loss of 5.7 acre - <br />feet. <br />3. The total product mined below the groundwater surface shall not exceed 300,000 tons, <br />resulting in 4.4 acre -feet of water lost with the product. <br />4. Total consumption at the Gravel Pit must not exceed the aforementioned amounts unless <br />an amendment is made to this plan. <br />5. Approval of this plan is for the purposes as stated herein. Any additional uses of this water <br />must first be approved by this office. <br />6. The discharge of the replacement water and dewatered water into the Ski Lake should <br />be operated in such a manner as to not cause property damage. Any property damage <br />that results from the discharge of water into the Ski Lake is solely the applicant's <br />responsibility. <br />7. All diversions shall be measured in a manner acceptable to the Division Engineer. The <br />Applicant shall install and maintain such measuring devices as required by the Division <br />Engineer for operation of this SWSP.

The approval of this substitute water supply plan does not relieve the Applicant and /or the <br />landowner of the requirement to obtain a Water Court decree approving a permanent plan <br />for augmentation or mitigation to ensure the permanent replacement of all depletions, <br />including long -term evaporation losses and lagged depletions after gravel mining <br />operations have ceased. If reclamation of the mine site will produce a permanent water <br />surface exposing groundwater to evaporation, an application for a plan for augmentation <br />must be filed with the Division 1 Water Court prior to the completion of mining, to include, <br />but not be limited to, long -term evaporation losses and lagged depletions.
