CONDITIONS FOR APPROVAL
® If stormwater is contained on-site, it must infiltrate into the ground or be released to the
natural stream system within 72 hours, or all work must cease until a substitute water supply
plan, or augmentation plan approved by water court, is obtained. Reclamation plans must
ensure water will not be retained onsite for more than 72 hours unless an augmentation plan
approved by water court is obtained.
® According to a May 9, 2016 letter from this agency, the Colorado Beef (Five Rivers)
Reservoir, also known as the Wiley Pit, has been lined to the design standard referenced in
the State Engineer Guidelines for Lining Criteria for Gravel Pits; therefore, this agency has
no objection to the requested reduction request.
COMMENTS: The local Water Commissioner may be contacted at [phone] regarding
legal supplies of water in the area.
