�. Division of Reclamation, Mining, and Safety <br />1313 Sherman Street Room 215 <br />Denver, Colorado 80203 <br />December 31, 2009 <br />Dear Sandy, Marcia, and Dan <br />Irrigation is an Art and the science of irrigation is Trial and Eiror. Ross, he's a genius. <br />He is a very brilliant man that can work numbers until they look _GREAT ON PAPER, <br />but to apply everything that looks great on paper does not always work in the REAL <br />world. Irrigation is an art that the farmer is always trying to better and perfect by the <br />science of trial and error. Ross and I spent hours trying different nozzles and different <br />size sprinklers to get the most efficient coverage, and applying the water needed, in the <br />best time suitable for a particular crop. In fact, Ross is the one that first ordered the 404 <br />sprinklers and used the 1 /a inch nozzles. Ross came to the SUNSHINE corner and put a <br />pressure gauge in and we ran test together and WOW, even with 18 pounds of pressure <br />the sprinkler worked great and did excellent coverage. We were both shocked. Ross <br />knows all of these things and because he is so smart, he can present DRMS with partial <br />facts or very untrue facts and he can arrange his numbers in such a manner, that everyone <br />C • THINKS this is the right answer, but it is not. AND instead of helping to perfect the <br />system with his knowledge, he continues to lie and misinform people just to hinder and <br />hurt them and us and to provide information that is FALSE to the DRMS to convince the <br />DRMS that we don't have enough water. So far, the laws state that there must be a <br />dependable water SOURCE in place and there has been since the early 1900's and I will <br />have the Ditch board submit another letter stating that. As to the shares needed on any <br />piece of property, it is all trial and error and after 50 years of irrigating those properties <br />involved in the Revision, that's pretty much PROOF. <br />Here's the facts! MRCS was informed by Ross that WFC had a hard time finding <br />someone to irrigate the property and change the side rolls twice a day. This has been <br />willfully and knowingly submitted and is a LIE. First off, WE ARE IRRIGATING AND <br />FARMING THE ENTIRE MORGAN PROPERTY AND HAVE SUBMITTED OUR <br />COPY OF OUR CONTRACT TO DO SO TO YOU FOR YOU TO SEE.. Second, the <br />entire time that I was employed by WFC, I was 7 days per week on 24 hour per day call <br />and I will submit a copy of that to you also. Third, I CHANGED THE SIDEROLLS <br />TWICE A DAY FOR THE ENTIRE PERIOD THAT M AND M CUSTOM FARMING <br />WAS EMPLOYED BY WFC AND WE NEVER MISSED ONE DAY OF WORK <br />EXCEPT WHEN WFC SENT US HOME OR DID NOT WANT US THERE BECAUSE <br />OF DRMS SHOWING UP. Brent Spangler worked for me for 7 years and never took <br />off a =flay of work for any reason other than the mine sending us home for rainy days or <br />for the DRMS showing up so they did not want us there. We worked all holidays and <br />everyday, it did not matter. We were there and we changed the water twice a day <br />�• everyday. So, when Ross provided NRCS with that information, they designed a system <br />for just one time a day for the side rolls to be changed. This changes the entire system <br />
