tog EAST FOURTH AVENUE <br />DENVER, COLORADO <br />80203 <br />(303) 778 -7 653 <br />FAX 777.6017 <br />March 1, 2013 <br />Jonathan Hernandez, PE <br />Water Resource Engineer <br />CO Division of Water Resources <br />810 Ninth Street, Ste 200 <br />Greeley, CO 80631 <br />Re: Further Revised Durham SWSP Request <br />Dear Jonathan: <br />SSE <br />CHERYL <br />SIGNS <br />ENGINEERING <br />Varra Companies, Inc, decided to add Western Sugar to the Durham SWSP. You are right that <br />this will be easier to track as it is currently shown in the reservoir operations study. <br />Varra Companies, Inc. also requests an additional change to the Durham SWSP. This change is <br />due to water lease requests from gravel mine operators. These requests and the accumulated <br />amounts for are shown in the following table. The table includes the Shores request made on <br />February 5, 2013, for slightly less than the previously requested 15.5 acre feet: <br />MINE <br />WDID <br />SWSP NUMBER <br />AMOUNT, AF <br />Poudre Pit <br />0302519 <br />M -1996 -060 <br />Firestein/Tigges/Roberts Pit <br />0303009 <br />M -1983 -090 <br />58.30 <br />La Poudre Pit <br />0303010 <br />M -2000 -144 <br />N. La Poudre Pit <br />0303011 <br />Shores <br />0502522 <br />M- 1998 -013 <br />15.11 <br />Total <br />77.41 <br />The total amount is more than the 70 acre feet per year included in the request. I increased the <br />allowable lease amount to 300 acre feet per year. The revised reservoir operations study using <br />that revised lease amount is enclosed. <br />Please let me know if you have any questions or comments regarding this request. Thank you <br />for your consideration. <br />
