The date of appropriation is December 31, 1917, the <br />date of the decree is September 10, 1975. <br />Our cattle drink from the water which flows in the creek <br />and from water which stands in the low spots in the creek <br />bed. We are advised that when gravel is removed to a depth <br />lower than the stream bed, that water in the stream bed <br />migrates into the pit and that this water is cut off to down <br />stream users, particularly those in the immediate vicinity. <br />We believe that the low spots in the creek bed will dry <br />up as Lone Tree Creek traverses our land and that there will <br />no longer be any live water for the cattle. <br />Very truly yours, <br />LAZY D GRAZING ASSOCIATION <br />Arvid R DePorter, Secretary <br />lmm <br />
