The Amendment modifies some Exhibits (indicated in <br />bold lettering), while leaving unchanged those Exhibits not otherwise affected by <br />the changes proposed in the Amendment, as summarized below: <br />1) A complete 112 form - Revised, updated with the required Amendment <br />fee. It should be noted that the August 1992 Amendment on future use <br />only allowed for one mark under Future Use, and that Developed Water <br />Resources was selected. While the underpinning Use reverts to <br />Agriculture, and while the Developed Water Resources may be utilized for <br />Agricultural Uses; further, the August 1996 Technical Revision provided <br />under the Backfill Permit for the return of fill and above water land areas <br />to Agricultural Uses; the OMLR determined that the activity posed a <br />`significant change to the Reclamation due to the location of the fill within <br />a flood plain; so to better fulfill the notification and comment duties of the <br />OMLR, this Amendment was requested to clarify matters of Reclamation <br />for the lands remaining above water surrounding the completed basins and <br />within the 120.0 acre permit area. Still the form only allows for one check <br />mark - so in this instance Agriculture has been selected as the Future <br />Use, but should not be found in contradiction with any Developed Water <br />Resource Use previously determined and approved by the OMLR. <br />2) Exhibit A- Revised and clarified. <br />3) Exhibit B - Revised - updated on USGS Quadrangle Map. <br />1
