The application identifies the following measures that will be utilized to minimize impacts created by the vehicles accessing the proposed facility: • Control dust along un -surfaced access roads and minimize tracking of soil onto paved roads, as required by the CDPHE Stormwter Permit; and • Comply with County and State weight restrictions and limitations; • Limit construction and operation traffic speeds to a low and reasonable level; • Keep dusty, exposed areas damp with water or magnesium -chloride solution or other dust suppressant; • Stabilize traffic areas with gravel; • Revegetate or stabilize non -traffic areas as soon as practicable; 4 (3) BOCC 03/17/2008 CR Design of the proposed use is organized to minimize impact on and from adjacent uses of land through installation of screen fences or landscape materials on the periphery of the lot and by location of intensively utilized areas, access points, lighting and signs in such a manner as to protect established neighborhood character; Staff Finding The proposed facility is located in a remote portion of Garfield County. The subject area is predominantly characterized by oil and gas activity. Due to the remote location and existing adjacent uses, Staff is not recommending that the Board require the installation of screen fences or landscaping to screen the proposed use from adjacent properties. Staff has included a recommended condition of approval requiring all lighting be pointed downward and away from adjacent properties. Section 5.03.07 Industrial Operation The applicant for a permit for industrial operations shall prepare and submit to the Planning Director ten (10) copies of an impact statement on the proposed use describing its location, scope, design and construction schedule, including an explanation of its operational characteristics. One (1) copy of the impact statement shall be filed with the County Commissioners by the Planning Director. The impact statement shall address the following: (1) Existing lawful use of water through depletion or pollution of surface run-off, stream flow or ground water; Staff Finding As demonstrated earlier in this memorandum, The Applicant has provided copies of associated water well permits and court decrees allowing for commercial and industrial oil and gas operation activities. A phone conversation with Dwight Whitehead, Department of Water Resources revealed that a number of industrial/commercial wells exist in the area north of Parachute, Colorado. The court decrees provided allow for the proposed use. The application was referred to Jim Rada, Garfield County Environmental Health Department. In his comments, he identified the lack of a stormwater management plan. Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) requires the submittal of a stormwater management plan for all construction activities that disturb an area exceeding one (1) acre. The application states that the stormwater management plan has been completed and will be submitted to CDPHE. Staff has included a recommended condition of approval requiring the submittal of the stormwater management plan required by CDPHE. -5 BOCC 03/17/2008 CR (2) Impacts on adjacent land from the generation of vapor, dust, smoke, noise, glare or vibration, or other emanations; Staff Finding The generation of smoke or glare is not expected. Any vibration generated by the proposed use will not be detectable beyond the property boundaries. Fugitive dust emissions will be controlled by the application of water, gravel, or other mitigation measures necessary to reduce impacts of dust emissions as represented in the application. A noise analysis conducted by Cordilleran Compliance Services, Inc. was included in the application as Appendix M. The sound analysis demonstrates compliance with State Statue regarding the generation of noise. Impacts on wildlife and domestic animals through the creation of hazardous attractions, alteration of existing native vegetation, blockade of migration routes, use patterns or other disruptions; (3) Staff Finding A Wildlife Assessment and Management Report conducted by WestWater Engineering Inc. was included in the application as Appendix L. The assessment identifies the subject property as a big game winter range. The subject area is also a known habitat for black bears. In order to reduce impacts to wildlife the assessment identifies the following measures: • Reduce to the minimum level possible all soil -disturbing activities; • Park Construction vehicles on previously disturbed lands during construction; • Re -seed temporary and permanent disturbances with native grasses; • Keep all trash and food waste in a bear -proof container; Staff has included a recommended condition of approval requiring that the Applicant implement all recommendations identified in the Wildlife Assessment and Management Report. (4) Affirmatively show the impacts of truck and automobile traffic to and from such uses and their impacts to areas in the County; Staff Finding As discussed earlier in this memorandum, a temporary increase in traffic during the construction period is expected. Post construction, traffic generated by the proposed facility is estimated at one (1) light truck trip per day. - 6 (5) BOCC 03/17/2008 CR That sufficient distances shall separate such use from abutting property which might otherwise be damaged by operations of the proposed use(s); Staff Finding The nearest occupied residence is located approximately 3 miles south of the proposed facility. Staff finds that sufficient distances separate the use from abutting properties. Permits may be granted for those uses with provisions that provide adequate mitigation for the following: 1) A plan for site rehabilitation must be approved by the County Commissioners before a permit for conditional or special use will be issued; 2) The County Commissioners may require security before a permit for special or conditional use is issued, if required. The applicant shall furnish evidence of a bank commitment of credit, bond, certified check or other security deemed acceptable by the County Commissioners in the amount calculated by the County Commissioners to secure the execution of the site rehabilitation plan in workmanlike manner and in accordance with the specifications and construction schedule established or approved by the County Commissioners.

V REFERRAL COMMENTS Grand Valley Fire Protection District The fire district has requested a 4.5 inch connection to the water storage on-site. The Staff has included this request as a recommended condition of approval. Mountain Cross Engineering Below you will find comments from Chris Hale, Garfield County Consulting Engineer followed by Staff responses: 1. If any of the water from the pumping facility is intended to be used for potable use CDPHE-WQD regulations may apply. - 10 - BOCC 03/17/2008 CR Staff Response The proposed facility is not intended for potable use. CDPHE-WQD regulations do not apply to this type of facility. This was confirmed with conversations between Jim Rada, Garfield County Environmental Health Department and CDPHE-WQD engineer Mark Kadnuck. 2. The Water Supply Agreement mentions certain water rights, river intakes, and water wells butt does not include documentation of the well permits, permitted uses, and/or any augmentation plans of the water to be used. The Applicant should verify that the diversion amounts, anticipated uses, and diversion locations that are intended are consistent with the water rights of the Agreement. Staff Response The Applicant has provided the required well permits and court decrees demonstrating a legal supply of water for the proposed use. Through a telephone conversation with Dwight Whitehead, Division of Water Resources this was confirmed. 3. No engineering plans or documentation was included within the application for pump sizing, tank sizing, line sizing, pressure regulation, and other water system appurtenances. This office therefore has no comment regarding the adequacy or design of the system. Staff Response The application represents tank sizing at 600 -barrels each. Garfield County does not require that the applicant document pump sizing or pressure regulation as part of this application. Line sizing will be reviewed as part of Administrative Pipeline Permit application if required by Garfield County Zoning Resolution of 1978, as amended §9.07. The Application represents that the Administrative Permit will be pursued. 4. A copy of the CDPHE permit for the Stormwater Discharge Associated with Construction Activities should be submitted by the Applicant. Staff Response Staff has included the submittal of the Stormwater management plan as a recommended condition of approval. VI SUGGESTED FINDINGS 1.)

The Fire District would require a designated Fire Department 4 .5 inch connection to the water storage that is on site. This will aid in an initial fire attack of a Structure Fire and/or Wildland Fire. The Fire District would come out and put an adapter on the connection to reduce it down to a 2.5 inch connection for any Wildland purposes. The site is accessible for fire apparatus, therefore the District will not need any extra accommodations made during the duration of this project. If you have any questions regarding this review, I can be reached at the above listed phone number. Rob Ferguson Deputy Fire Chief - Operations, GVFPD Cc: file MEMORANDUM To: Craig Richardson From: Steve Anthony Re: Marathon/Encana Fresh Water Pumping Facility Date: January 17, 2008 EXHIBIT G 1 Thanks for the opportunity to comment on this permit. Noxious Weeds The weed inventory and management plan are acceptable Site Rehabilitation Plan and Revegetation Plan The revegetation plan and site reclamation plan are acceptable. Staff recommends a revegetation security in the amount of $6,000 ($4,000 per acre X 1.5 acres). For short term projects we have used a figure of $2500 per acre for security. For long term projects we have used a figure of $4,000 per acre. This may be in the form of a letter of credit, if deemed appropriate by the County Attorney's Office, or the funds by may be deposited with the County Treasurer. The security shall be held by Garfield County until vegetation has been successfully reestablished according to the Reclamation Standards in the Garfield County Weed Management Plan.

EXHIBIT H Craig Richardson From: Jim Rada Sent: Thursday, January 10, 2008 10:59 AM To: Craig Richardson Subject: EnCana Oil and Gas USA, Inc. Fresh Water Pumping Facility SUP Application. Attachments: Jim Rada.vcf Hello Craig, I offer the following comments regarding the above referenced application: • Although it is apparent that American Soda, LLP has significant water rights in the Parachute creek drainage, it was not clear whether the water rights allocated to the wells from which this project will draw are adequate to meet the demand for this project. If the combined water rights listed in the Water Supply agreement are pooled and can be used to fill this need then this may not be an issue but I encourage the County to make sure that the Division of Water Resources reviews this plans and provides written approval. I am assuming you have already referred this plan to DWR. • I called the CDPHE WQCD District Engineer Mark Kadnuck to determine if any CDPHE permits or reviews are required for this project. He indicated that he was not aware of any such permits but expressed agreement with me that engineering considerations might be needed to address possible back flow conditions that could lead to possible aquifer contamination. Perhaps this is being addressed in the engineering of the system but no engineering documents were provided. I suggest that the applicant be required to discuss this system with the WQCD to make sure any potential groundwater contamination concerns are addressed in advance of construction. • No information was provided on any hydrologic effect that drawing this much water might have on water quantity and quality of any nearby potable water supply wells, springs or stream flows. Since American Soda presumably used these wells heavily in the past, they might have some data to show their impact on the aquifer. Does the gas plant near this site have a water supply well? Due to the location and the stated fact that this site is 2 miles from the nearest residence, it could be that there will be little if any effect on water quantity or quality in the valley but perhaps some analysis and written documentation might be prudent to avoid or address any claims in the future. • The stormwater management plan for this site was not provided. Due to the proximity of this site to Parachute Creek, I believe that appropriate and perhaps additional measures should be taken to protect the creek not only from stormwater runoff events but also from a sudden release of water from the site that might be related to a breached tank, broken pipeline, or other event that would rapidly release of a large quantity of water that could result in sediments being carried to the creek. Thanks for the opportunity to review this application.

Historic use of Roaring Fork River drainage rights: A. The Weaver & Leonhardy Ditch and Rockford Ditch (Southard & Cavanaugh Ditch) water rights described in paragraph 14.A. above were hisTorically used to irrigate 60 acres of what was known as the Kin.sall Ranch, resulting in an average annual consumptive use of 109.8 acre feet, asdescribed and quantified in paragraph 1.,�.�1 )(pages 20 and 21) and Exhibit "B" of the decree in W-2206 (attached as Exhibit A hereto). A monthly depletion analysis for these water rights is set forth in Exhibit B hereto. B. The Staton Ditch water rights described in paragraph 14.B. above were historically used to irrigate part of the 20 acres of what is known as the Sanders Ranch, resulting in an average annual consumptive use of 10.37 acre feet, as described and quantified in paragraph 4.A.(3)(page 21) and Exhibit "B" of the decree in Case No. `:V-2206. (As decreed in WV -2206, a total of 22 acre feet of average annual historic consumptive use was associated with the dry up under the Staton Ditch. The remaining 1 1.63 acre feet (22 acre feet total less the said 10.37 acre feet) were changed in Case No. 90CW 136 for augmentation of the Coryell Ponds. The said 11.63 acre feet are separate and distinct from the 10.37 acre feet included in this Decree. The other 14.6 acre feet of historic consumptive use referenced in paragraph 4.A. (3) (page 21) of the W-2206 Decree were under the Glenwood Ditch and are not part of this 99CW300 proceeding.) C. The Atkinson Canal water rights described in paragraph 14.C. above were historically used to irrigate 78 acres on what is known as the Wulfsohn Ranch, resulting in an average annual consumptive use of 1417 acre feet, as described and quantified in paragraph 4.A.(2)(page 21) and Exhibit "B" of the decree in Case No. \V-2206.

The Subject Water Rights are already decreed for industrial purposes (among other purposes), including for oil shale mining and development. Applicant seeks a decree confirming that the rights may be used for general industrial, mining, processing, retorting, refining and commercial purposes, including (without limiting the generality of the foregoing) any and all uses in connection with all aspects of Applicant's project to extract nahcolite and other minerals (including oil shale). B. The prior Decrees for the Subject Water Rights contemplated use in the Colorado River basin and Piceance Creek basin. Applicant seeks confirmation that use of . the Subject Water Rights may also be made upon lands described in Exhibit C hereto (which is incorporated herein by this reference). C. Applicant does not seek to change the conditional municipal and irrigation uses decreed to Union 76 Water Well Nos. 2 through 5, and no such change is granted herein. These municipal and irrigation uses will not be made or perfected in the Piceance Creek basin (Water Division No. 6), and therefore any return `lows from these uses will accrue to the Colorado River basin (Water Division No. 5). D. Objector Exxon Mobil Corporation ("ExxotuMob►1") obtained a Decree in Case No. 82CW369 that included, inter alia, a decreed right to divert the Objector's Cornell Ditch by exchange at the Dow Pumping Plant and Pipeline, the Dow Wells, the Middle Fork Reservoir and Davis Gulch Reservoir, subject to the terms and conditions of the said Decree. In order to prevent injury to ExxonMobil's vested water rights or decreed conditional water rights, Applicant agrees as follows: (1) Applicant as the successor to Union Oil Company for the Union 76 Water Well Nos. 1, 1A, 2, 3, 4 and 5 agrees to waive the water delivery requirements of paragraph 7(c)(S) of the Decree in Case. No. 82CW369, and that the evater rights that are the subject of this case may not be used in any manner as a basis to enforce paragraph 7(c)(8) of the Decree in Case No, 82CW369. (2) Applicant agrees that its Union 76 Water Well Nos. 1, I A, 2, 3.4 and 5 shall not be considered a `water right" or surface diversions that can exercise a call against ExxonMobil's Cornell Ditch exchange as defined and contemplated in paragraph 7(c)(2) of the Decree in Case No. 82CW369.

Objector ExxonMobil may exchange its Cornell Ditch water rights past Applicant's Union 76 Water Well Nos. 1, 1A, 2, 3, 4 and 5, when Parachute Creek is a dry stream. (4) In the event any other party attempts to enforce the conditions described in paragraphs 17(D)(2) and (3) above, Applicant agrees that it will restrict pumping from each of the Union 76 Water Well Nos. I , t A, 2, 3, 4 and 5 to a rate of one-half (1/2) of their decreed rates. (5) To the extent required, the foregoing terms of this Decree shall constitute an amendment or modification of the relevant paragraphs of the Decree in Case No. 82CW369. , E. The terms and conditions on the exercise of the water rights in this decree shall run with title to the water rights that are the subject of this decree and shall limit any successor to the Applicant in the exercise of such rights in this decree. F. Except as provided herein, Applicant does not seek to change the plan for augmentation, including exchartge, involving the Subject Water Rights decreed in Case No. W-2206. G. No injury will occur to other vested or decreed conditional water rights as a result of entry of this Decree to change the Subject Water Rights, confirm their use for general industrial purposes, and confirm their use within Applicant's project lands, as herein described. 18.

In Water Court Case No. 95CW95, 44,509 acre feet was made absolute. 24. Augmentation releases from Wolford Mountain Reservoir will be assessed a 10% transit loss, and augmentation releases from Ruedi Reservoir will be assessed a 5% transit loss. The Court hereby finds that these transit losses are reasonable and appropriate. 25. Out -of -priority depletions from the wells on Parachute Creek (whether the wells are diverting under the priorities described in paragraphs 1.7. through I.9 above, or diverting under the Pumping Pipeline priority, under the decrees in C.A. 4004 and Case Nos. W-3946 and 83CW349) may be augmented by the Parachute Creek drainage augmentation rights (described in paragraphs • 1.12 and I.13 above) when such augmentation rights are in priority, and, to that extent, this plan for augmentation will prevent injury to senior vested and decreed conditional water rights on Parachute Creek. However, the preceding sentence is not intended to limit or restrict any right Applicant has to: A. Augment the depletions from the wells with the Roaring Fork River drainage rights or releases from Wolford Mountain Reservoir or Ruedi Reservoir when the call originates downstream on the Colorado River and :here is not an internal call on Parachute Creek: Nu. 9\200 Plant: American Soil, . a Colorado Lanned B. Divert water at the Pumping Pipeline facility on the Colorado River and transport and deliver the water above the calling right on Parachute Creek for purposes of augmenting the subject wells; or C. Augment the subject wells with releases from the Parachute Creek Reservoir. 26. Applicant will account for its domestic and irrigation diversions at the wells and Pumping Pipeline, and the associated return flows to the Colorado River basin (assumed to be 10° o of diversions for the domestic component) on a form acceptable to the Division Engineer. This decree is not intended to limit or restrict the Applicant's right to fully consume the Parachute Creek drainage rights or Roaring Fork River drainage rights consistent with the monthly depletion analysis set forth in Exhibit B hereto (see e.g., paragraph 6.E. (page 2.1) of the W-2206 Decree); nor to limit or restrict the Applicant's right to fully consume diversions under the Pumping Pipeline right (diverting at the subject wells and/or at the point of diversion on the Colorado River), so long as the out -of -priority depletions are properly accounted for and augmented. 27. Applicant will account for diversions of all the Subject Water Rights and augmentation replacement on a form acceptable to the Division Engineer. 28. Applicant has provided a proposed accounting form that provides information helpful in the administration of this Decree. The accounting form is not a part of this Decree and may be modified with the approval of the Division Engineer. Applicant will provide written notice to the Objectors of any change in the accounting form proposed to the Division Engineer or required by the Division Engineer. 29. The Applicant shall install measuring devices, provide accounting, and supply calculations regarding the timing of depletions as required by the Division Engineer for the operation of this plan. The Applicant shall also file an annual report with the Division Engineer by November 15' of each year summarizing diversions and replacements made under this plan. 30. Paragraph 3.F.(l) (pages 37) of the W-2206 Decree is hereby entirely replaced and superceded by the following term and condition: Because the lands historically irrigated by the subject Roaring Fork River drainage rights have been taken out of production, said rights will be dedicated to ase under the subject water supply and augmentation plan each year. No further notice of the intent to use the rights for these purposes is required. 31. Operation of the augmentation plan will prevent injury to senior vested and Llecrced conditional '.nater rights.

The com- pletion statement filed for Observation Well No. 123304 is actually.that for Production Well No. 25480-F. Similarly, the completion statement for Well No. 123301 should be that for Well No. 25481-F and the completion statement for Well No. 123305 is actually that of Well No. 25482-F. The appropriate changes in permit numbers on the completion statements should be made and the revised statements filed with the correct permit to show the wells were completed. 2. Observation Wells A. Two observation wells drilled in January, 1982, are filed under incorrect permit numbers. The completion statement cur- rently filed under Permit No. 123303 is actually for Well No. 123301. Additionally, the location on this statement should be changed to NE 1/4 NE 1/4, Section 36. The completion statement currently filed under Permit No. 123299 is actually for Well No. 123304. The location on this statement should read SE 1/4 NE 1/4, Section 36. B. In December, 1980, the State Engineer was notified that Union intends to construct five test wells on its shale oil project. These wells were constructed as test holes. In 1981, Union decided to permanently utilize these wells as observation wells. Consequently, permits were obtained for them. However, no com- pletion statements were filed by a contractor since the wells already existed. To remedy this, the contractor, James Drilling, is now filing completion statements for the following observation wells: 123299 123300 123302 123303 123305 These statements will be filed on October 22, 1982.

Production Wells Completion statements for three of the production wells were filed under permit numbers assigned to observation wells. The com- pletion statement filed for Observation Well No. 123304 is actually.that for Production Well No. 25480-F. Similarly, the completion statement for Well No. 123301 shouia be that for Well No. 25481-F and the completion statement for Well No. 123305 is actually that of Well No. 25482-F. The appropriate changes in permit numbers -on the completion statements should be made and the revised statements filed with the correct permit to show the wells were completed. 2. Observation Wells A. Two observation wells drilled in January, 1982, are filed under incorrect permit numbers. The completion statement cur- rently filed under Permit No. 123303 is actually for Well No. 123301. Additionally, the location on this statement should be changed to NE 1/4 NE 1/4, Section 36. The completion statement currently filed under Permit No. 123299 is actually for Well No. 123304. The location an this statement should read SE 1/4 NE 1/4, Section 36. 8. In December, 1980, the State Engineer was notified that Union intends to construct five test wells on its shale oil project. These wells were constructed as test holes. In 1981, Onion decided to permanently utilize these wells as observation wells. Consequently, permits were obtained for them. However, no com- pletion statements were filed by a contractor since the wells already existed. To remedy this, the contractor, James Drilling, is now filing completion statements for the following observation wells: 123299 123300 123302 123303 123305 These statements will be filed on October 22, 1982. With these corrections, accurate completion statements will be in place for all of Union's wells. Beneficial Use Statements for the four new production wells are forthcoming.

Oil Company's Long Ridge Oil Shale Plant, and seven (7) observation wells to be used to monitor water levels in the Parachute Creek alluvium. Also enclosed is our check in the amount of $275.00 for the filing fee. Union is entitled to issuance of the permits for the four pro- duction wells under the decree in Case No. W-2206, Water Divi- sion No. 5, approving its augmentation plan for the water supply for its oil shale project. These four production wells, together with the 450 g.p.m. well in the NW1/4 of the NE1/4 of Section 33, Township 6 South, Range 96 West, recently applied for by Union, will be subject to the 1000 g.p.m. maximum combined pumping rate limitation contained in the decree in that case. Please call me or Union's attorney, Chuck Woodruff, if there are any ques- tions about this. I understand that the permits for the observation wells will be issued routinely since they will be used for monitoring purposes only, and will not be produced.

In December, 1980, the State Engineer was notified that Union intends to construct five test wells on its shale oil project. These wells were constructed as test holes. In 1981, Union decided to permanently utilize these wells as observation wells. Consequently, permits were obtained for them. However, no com- pletion statements were filed by a contractor since the wells already existed. To remedy this, the contractor, James Drilling, is now filing completion statements for the following observation wells: 123299 123300 123302 123303 123305 These statements will be filed on October 22, 1982.

The purpose of this letter is to resolve these errors prior to filing of the Beneficial Use Statements. Union Oil holds five permits for production wells and seven per- mits for observation wells in T5S, R96W in Garfield County, Colorado. These permits are as follows: Production Wells Observation Wells 23584-F 25480-F 25481-F 25482-F 25483-F 123299 123300 123301 123302 123303 123304 123305 All permits except No. 23584-F were issued in November, 1981. Permit No. 23484-F was issued in June, 1973. \11 wells have been drilled. Documents filed for the 1978 well, Permit No. 23584-F, are accurate and complete. All pump installation reports have been filed correctly; however, a number of errors have been made in filing the driller's completion statements on the 1981 wells. Each error and appropriate corrective actions are described below. P.O. Bow 2133 Casper, Wyoming 82602 (307) 2342185 1.

My letter of October 30th to you requested that processing of the permit applications be. expedited in order that Union's contractor can start drilling the wells before the first of December. Union has subsequently advised that its contractor would like to get started during the week of November 16th. You indicated that if the permits have not been issued by the time Union's contractor needs to start drilling, there would be no problem with going ahead and drilling the wells as test holes, so long as the production wells are not produced until the pend- ing well permits have been issued. Union has requested me to notify you that it does wish to proceed to drill all of the wells as test holes pending issuance of the well permits. Drilling is expected to commence during the week of November 16th. Unless you notify otherwise, I will assume that Union is authorized to proceed on that basis. As indicated in Mr. Cloninger's letter of October 2nd, the wells are covered by the augmentationplan decreed in Case No. W-2206, Water Division No. 5. The four production wells, together with the 450 g.p.m. well in the NW 1/4 of the NE 1/4 of Section 33, T6S, R96W, for which a permit application has recently been or will be shortly submitted by Bishop Associates, Inc., will be `MOSES, WITTEMYER, HARRISON AND WOODRUFF, P. C. Mr. Ralph Stallman November 12, 1981 Page 2 subject to the 1,000 g.p.m. maximum combined pumping rate pro- vided for in that decree. I understand that Bishop Associates, Inc. has submitted a permit application for a 60 g.p.m. well located near the 450 g.p.m. well, and that the 60 g.p.m. well will be a standby for the 450 g.p.m. well and will not be pumped simultaneously with it.

The pumping facility will obtain water from a variety of sources including a river intake system and wells which are owned by American Soda LLP. American Soda LLP claims to own water rights along the Colorado River, Parachute Creek and Parachute Reservoir, and water supply wells near the middle fork of Parachute Creek and Roaring Fork River Ranch. American Soda LLP has entered an agreement to lease these rights to Marathon Oil Company. As stated in the State Engineer's March 4, 2005 memorandum to county planning directors, this office has no statutory responsibility to review land use actions that do not include the subdivision of land as defined in Section 30-28-101(10)(a), C.R.S. This referral does not appear to qualify as a "subdivision". However, we have performed a cursory review and are providing informal comments. The applicant has not provided any information regarding the existence of valid well permits or decreed water rights to support the proposed facility. In addition, the source of the proposed water supply would be from, or tributary to, the Parachute Creek and Roaring Fork River, which are both tributaries of the Colorado River. The Colorado River is overappropriated, therefore a plan for augmentation is required to offset depletions caused by the use of water for this develoom nt In conclusion, this office is unable to comment on the adequacy of the water supply. If you or the applicant has any questions concerning this matter, please contact me for assistance. January 25, 2008 Bill Ritter, Jr. Governor Harris D. Sherman Executive Director Dick Wolfe, P.E.
