which de- watering water is delivered. Documentation of pond sizes may be required by the
Division Engineer in the form of an aerial photo evaluation or survey by a Professional Land
Surveyor during the plan year or in years covered by subsequent renewals of this plan.
3. Subject to approval by the Division Engineer, the Applicant may lease or purchase additional
replacement water from the sources approved in this plan. The Applicant must provide a copy of
a lease /purchase agreement to the State Engineer's Office and the Division Engineer for use of
such additional replacement water. Should any of the leases expire prior to the expiration of this
plan, lease renewals must be obtained and submitted within 2 weeks of their expiration.
4. Approval of this SWSP is for the purposes stated herein. The State Engineer's Office must first
approve any additional uses for which the water may be used. The replacement water, which is
the subject of this SWSP, cannot be sold or leased to any other entity during the term of this
SWSP without prior approval of the Division Engineer.
5. Under this approval, the evaporative depletions associated with the Canon City East Pit and
Lamar East Pit have been assumed instantaneous due to their proximity to the Arkansas River
being within 100 feet. The Applicant is hereby notified that any subsequent SWSP renewal
for these pits must include depletions that have been lapped to the Arkansas River. The
lagging effect shall be based on the distance from the centroids of the exposed ground
water surfaces to the Arkansas River. This will ensure that all replacements replace depletions
in time, location, and amount.
6. The Applicant shall provide to the Division Engineer, within 30 days of the date of this approval,
an electronic Excel spreadsheet showing, by WDID, the owner or contact person name, address
and telephone number for each structure covered or used in this SWSP. The Applicant shall also
provide to the Division Engineer an updated version of this spreadsheet if there are any owner or
contact person changes within the approval period of this SWSP.
7. Release of the Pueblo waters must be under the Division Engineer's direction and approval.
8. The Applicant shall provide daily accounting (including, but not limited to diversions, depletions,
replacement sources, and river calls) on a monthly basis. The accounting must be emailed to the
Water Commissioner (Brian.Suttonstate.co.us for Canon City East Pit operations;
Lonnie.Spadvstate.co.us for Rocky Ford East Pit operations; Joshua.Kasper(a.state.co.us for
Lamar East Pit operations) and to the Division Engineer (e -mail to
Div2Ground.Water(a state.co.us), within 30 days of the end of the month for which the accounting
applies. Accounting and reporting procedures are subject to approval and modification by the
Division Engineer. Accounting forms need to identify the WDID number for each well operating
under this SWSP. NOTE: Monthly accounting, even during the winter non - irrigation season, is
required.
9. The Applicant shall follow the accounting protocols as referenced in the attached documents for
the operation of this SWSP.
10. The name, address, and phone number of the contact person who will be responsible for the
operation and accounting of this SWSP must be provided with the accounting forms to the
Division Engineer and Water Commissioner.
11. Credits for the Rocky Ford Ditch shares and Canon City and Oil Creek Ditch shares shall be
determined by diverting in- priority and measuring back to the river the amount for these share
totals. Credits will be determined by applying the appropriate consumptive use factor to the daily
delivered pro -rata share amount measured through the augmentation stations. Credits to be
used for depletions at pit sites below the point of credit (i.e. at the Lamar East Pit from Rocky
Ford Ditch credits) must be made available by daily coordination with the Division Engineer's
Office to affect delivery past any intervening ditches or through reservoirs to the point of
