Thompson: Timothy J. Thompson, 17293 U.S. Highway 85, Platteville, CO 80651. CHANGE OF WATER RIGHTS. 9. Name of Structure. Evans Ditch No. Two. 10. Previous Decrees. The Evans Ditch No. Two was decreed Priority 40 in Case No. CA6009, District Court, Second Judicial District on April 28, 1883. The adjudicated priority date for the right is October 5, 1871. The adjudicated rate of diversion is 177.07 cubic feet per second. The adjudicated use is for irrigation. The Evans Ditch No. Two water right is diverted from the South Platte River through the headgate of the Platte Valley Irrigation Company located Northeast Quarter of the Northwest Quarter of the Southeast Quarter, Section 19, Township 2 North, Range 66 West of the 6th P.M. The Platte Valley Irrigation Company delivers the Evans Ditch No. Two water to its shareholders. 11. Proposed Change of Use: Applicant seeks to change the use of 25 shares of the 344 outstanding shares in the Platte Valley Irrigation Company to include augmentation, recharge, replacement, and exchange, by direct release or storage for later release. Augmentation uses may include assignment to and use in the Central Colorado Water Conservancy District Augmentation Plans decreed in 02CW335 and 03CW99. Applicant claims the right to totally consume the consumable portion of the water, either by first use, successive use, or disposition. Applicant intends to retain the existing irrigation use, subject to terms and conditions that prevent simultaneous delivery for irrigation and the new claimed uses. Once changed, these shares may be delivered to the recharge sites identified above to offset alluvial well depletions and/or meet return flow replacement obligations. Applicant proposes to provide replacement of return flows only at times the call on the river is senior to the date of this application, effectively appropriating return flows at times the call is junior to that date. 12. Methodology. Though Applicant seeks to change the use of only 25 of 344 outstanding PVIC shares at the present time, Applicant has applied a ditch-wide methodology to determine the average amount of consumptive use attributable to each PVIC share, and will prosecute the application on this basis. As such, the determinations made in this case will be binding upon future applications to change the use of PVIC shares.13. Historical Use. Applicant has selected a study period of 1950 to 2004. Diversion records for the selected study period indicate that an average of 26,602.76 acre feet was diverted at the river headgate. Accounting for system wide ditch loss of 16.25%, Applicant estimates that 22,279.82 acre feet was delivered via farm headgates and applied to an average of 15,015 acres of spring grain, dry beans, corn grain, potatoes, sugar beets, alfalfa, winter wheat, and grass pasture. Based on maximum irrigation efficiencies of 60% prior to 1975 and 67% after 1975, on farm depletions averaged 14,013.47 acre feet annually on a system wide basis, or 40.74 acre feet per share. On farm return flow volumes averaged 8,266.35 acre feet per year, consisting of 826.63 acre feet of surface returns and 7,439.72 acre feet of groundwater returns. Return flows accrued to the South Platte River at an average rate of 826.63 acre feet per year via surface runoff, and 6,116.16 acre feet per year via deep percolation. It was assumed that return flows that

Page 4: APRIL 2008 08CW69 LARIMER COUNTY.APRIL 2008 WATER RESUME PUBLICATION TO: ALL PERSONS INTERESTED IN WATER APPLICATIONS IN WATER DIV. 1 Pursuant to C.R.S. 37-92-302, you are notified

accrued to the Beebe Draw accrued to the South Platte River in the same month that they arrived at the drain ditch in the Draw. 14. Proposed Terms and Conditions. Applicant’s new uses will be limited by proposed terms including: 14.1 Seasonal Limitation: Diversions for the new uses will be limited to March 1 to November 30 each year, consistent with historical practices. 14.2. Point of Diversion. All water diverted for the new uses shall be delivered through the PVIC river headgate. 14.3. Ditch Company Regulation. The Platte Valley Irrigation Company will assess the same amount of conveyance losses to the delivery of the changed shares as are assessed all other shareholders. 14.4. Volumetric Limitations on the Amount of Water Delivered Through Farm Headgates. Deliveries at the farm headgates and bypass structure(s) shall be monitored and regulated to ensure compliance with the following limitations. 14.4.1. Per share monthly maximum volumetric limits. The amount of water delivered through the farm headgate per share not exceed the following amounts on a monthly basis (acre feet): March: 3.86; April: 14.11; May: 21.07; June: 30.13; July: 27.55; August: 26.5; September: 17.19; October: 14.48; November: 4.93. 14.4.2. Per share annual maximum volumetric limit. No more than 101.41 acre feet per share shall be delivered in a single calendar year. 14.4.3. Per share ten-year rolling average volumetric limit. No more than 64.77 acre feet per share shall be delivered in any rolling ten year period. 14.5. Return Flow Obligations. Use of the Evans Ditch No. Two water right for irrigation historically created surface and subsurface return flows to the South Platte River and the Beebe Draw Drain Ditch. On a system-wide basis, approximately 10% of these returns were surface runoff and 90% occurred via deep percolation. 14.5.1. Location of Return Flows. Applicant divided the Evans Ditch No. Two into four sections for the purposes of return flow and recharge accretion analysis. Sections one through three contributed return flows directly to the South Platte River. Section Four contributed return flows to Beebe Draw Drain Ditch. 14.5.1.1. Section One: South Platte River. Upstream Boundary: Section 2, Township 3 North, Range 67 West. Downstream Boundary: Section 8, Township 4 North, Range 66 West. 14.5.1.2. Section Two: South Platte River. Upstream Boundary: Section 8, Township 4 North, Range 66 West. Downstream Boundary: Section 35, Township 5 North, Range 66 West. 14.5.1.3. Section Three: South Platte River. Upstream Boundary: Section 35, Township 5 North, Range 66 West. Downstream Boundary: Section 29, Township 5 North, Range 65 West. 14.5.1.4. Section Four: Beebe Draw Drain Ditch. Upstream Boundary: Section 2, Township 3 North, Range 65 West (just North of Milton Reservoir). Downstream Boundary: Section 3, Township 4 North, Range 65 West (at Lower Latham Reservoir). 14.5.2. Amount and Timing of Historical Return Flows. Return flows accrued at the following rates in the following months from the following sections. Surface water return flows are expressed as a proportion of instantaneous farm headgate deliveries. Ground water return flow factors are expressed as a proportion of the preceding year’s total farm headgate deliveries. 14.5.2.1. Section One. 14.5.2.1.1. Surface Return Flows. March: .047; April: .044; May: .043; June: .037; July: .036; August: .036; September: .035; October: .036; November: .038. 14.5.2.1.2. Groundwater Return flows. January- December: .028. 14.5.2.2.

Amount, Timing and Location of Replacement of Historical return flows. Applicant will deliver water to the locations described above in amounts determined by the application of the factors described above at times when there is a valid call for water senior to the date of this application

Page 5: APRIL 2008 08CW69 LARIMER COUNTY.APRIL 2008 WATER RESUME PUBLICATION TO: ALL PERSONS INTERESTED IN WATER APPLICATIONS IN WATER DIV. 1 Pursuant to C.R.S. 37-92-302, you are notified

from a location downstream of the point where such return flows historically accrued to the South Platte River or Beebe Draw Drain Ditch. Applicant’s members will meet return flow obligations via the delivery of the changed shares to the identified recharge sites, by bypassing a portion of these shares directly to the affected stream, or by delivery of additional or alternative sources. 14.5.4. Dry Up Provisions. During the study period, the Evans Ditch No. Two right irrigated an average of 15,015 acres. The annual historical crop irrigation requirement for these acres was 22,397.40 acre feet. On average, 14,013.47 acre feet of this need was met by water diverted under the Evans Ditch No. 2 priority. The amount of water delivered to the farms under the PVIC system was consistently less than necessary to adequately irrigate the crops grown under the ditch. Because the system is severely water short, the change to new uses will necessarily reduce deliveries to shares remaining in irrigation, and specific dry-up provisions are not necessary. However, as a safeguard, the decree will include a term and condition that requires shareholders applying shares to new uses to cease application of water diverted under the Evans Ditch No. 2 priority to the amount of land necessary to ensure a reduction in consumptive use commensurate with the amount of water applied to the new uses. The location and amount of lands dedicated to dry-up may fluctuate from year to year commensurate with the number of shares dedicated to new uses. 14.6. Conditions Related to Share Dedication. Applicant’s members may elect whether to deliver the 25 shares changed herein to irrigation or to augmentation. This election shall be made no less than annually. The election shall be made prior to irrigation season, provided, however, that shares may be dedicated to augmentation uses after the commencement of the irrigation season if the shares have not been delivered for irrigation purposes during that season. Similarly, shares dedicated to augmentation uses may be rededicated to irrigation if no deliveries of the shares have been made to augmentation purposes in that season. The number of shares dedicated to augmentation purposes may fluctuate from year to year. Until such time as a share is first applied to augmentation uses, the volumetric limits set forth herein shall not apply. When a share is dedicated to augmentation uses, the limits shall apply at all times the share is being delivered to augmentation uses. If a share that has been dedicated to augmentation uses returns to irrigation uses, the volumetric limits shall not then apply.15. Ditch Wide Application. Future changes in use of PVIC shares shall be governed by terms and conditions decreed in this application, in the absence of a substantial change in circumstances not addressed by the Court in the context of this proceeding. 16. Place of Recharge. Applicant may deliver the changed shares to the recharge sites listed above, or to recharge sites hereafter added to the plan pursuant to the terms of the decree. AUGMENTATION PLAN 17. The Augmentation Plan set forth herein is plead in the alternative. Applicant’s intended use of accretions generated by the delivery of the PVIC Augmentation Group, LLC water right and the changed PVIC shares is to assign these to the augmentation plans already decreed in 02CW335 and 03CW99 and thereby increase the pumping allowed by PVIC Augmentation Group, LLC Members. However, Applicant seeks the alternative to apply these accretions via the separate augmentation plan plead herein if necessary. 18. Augmented Wells.

Applicant will use accretions from the PVIC Augmentation Group, LLC water right and accretions from or direct deliveries of the PVIC shares changed herein to replace out of priority depletions caused by the Member Wells. Applicant may use additional and alternative sources and seeks a decree that allows incorporation of these sources into its ongoing plan of augmentation. 20. Plan for Augmentation: 20.1 Diversions from the Member Wells cause depletions to the South Platte River and its tributaries. The purpose of this plan is to replace out of priority depletions in time, location and amount to the extent necessary to ensure that senior water rights are not deprived of their lawful entitlement to water. Applicant will replace depletions that affect the South Platte River or Beebe Draw at times when there is a valid call for water senior to the priority date of the depleting well. 20.2. Method for Determination of Well Depletions: 20.2.1. Pre-Filing Depletions. For all wells except Hunt 668, depletions caused by pumping that occurred prior to the filing of this application will not be augmented by the plan. All of the wells to be augmented are either currently enrolled in the CCWCD’s Ground Water Management Subdistrict or Well Augmentation Subdistrict augmentation plans, or were formerly enrolled in the Well Augmentation Subdistrict Plan. Post pumping depletions caused by the pumping of the PVIC Augmentation Group, LLC Member Wells prior to the filing of this plan have been quantified and will be replaced under the terms and conditions of 02CW335 and 03CW99. For those wells formerly enrolled in the Well Augmentation Subdistrict Plan, the 03CW99 decree requires the replacement of all post pumping depletions generated by the use the wells in 2003, 2004 and 2005. In addition, the 03CW99 decree requires the replacement of depletions for removed wells commensurate with the acres that remain irrigable under 03CW99.

With the exception of Hunt 668, a feedlot well, the former WAS wells in this proposed plan for augmentation irrigated acres that are included in the 03CW99 calculations. As such, depletions for the use of these wells on these acres have been quantified and are being replaced in the context of the 03CW99 plan. Unlike the other wells in the plan, whose pre-2003 depletions are being replaced by the 02CW335 and 03CW99 plans, all depletions caused by the pumping of Hunt 668 that occurred prior to 2003 will be quantified and replaced by this plan. 20.2.2. Post Filing Depletions. Consumptive use resulting from the pumping of Member Wells under a State Engineer approved substitute water supply plan obtained in the context of this case or caused by the pumping of Member Wells after the entry of a decree in this case will be quantified by the application of site, time and use specific presumption depletion factors to metered well pumping, or by use of the IDSCU program. Timing of depletions will be established via the application of a Glover based analysis. This plan and the 02CW335 and 03CW99 plans will operate independently. Depletions resulting from pumping approved by the 02CW335 and 03CW99 plans will be determined and replaced under the terms and conditions of those plans, and depletions resulting from pumping approved by PVIC Augmentation Group, LLC will be determined and replaced under the terms and conditions of the PVIC Augmentation Group, LLC plan. 20.2.3. Projection. At least annually, PVIC Augmentation Group, LLC will perform a projection comparing anticipated replacement sources with anticipated well depletions. This projection will be used to limit the pumping of member wells to ensure that no more is pumped than can be replaced. The projection will include depletions from previous pumping, projected well depletions, recharge accretions, and additional or alternate supplies. The projection will include the following limitations: 20.2.3.1. Period of Call. The projection will assume a call senior the Member Wells will occur continuously for all years of the projection. 20.2.3.2. Projected Deliveries to Direct Flow Water Rights and Senior Storage Rights. Projected deliveries to Direct Flow Water Rights and Senior Storage Rights in shall be based upon 2002-2006 recorded deliveries for all years of the projection. Senior Storage rights are those with a priority date senior to July 31, 1915. 20.2.3.3. Projected Deliveries to Junior Recharge and Storage Rights. Projected deliveries to junior recharge and storage rights shall be the amount actually placed into storage or recharge as of the date of the projection. PVIC Augmentation Group, LLC may elect to apportion the amount in storage over the period of the projection, taking into account any evaporation, seepage or other losses occurring over the time the water is in storage. 20.2.3.4. Additional Leased Supplies. PVIC Augmentation Group, LLC may assume deliveries from additional water supplies to the extent to which it has a fixed and definite right to delivery for the term of such delivery. 20.3 Metering. All member wells will be metered. 20.4 Maximum annual depletions for the Member Wells are estimated to be 2950 acre feet per year if member farms relied exclusively on ground water. However, pumping will be limited by the projection to assure that no more is pumped than can be replaced without injury to vested water rights and decree conditional water rights. 20.5. Accounting and Reporting: Applicants will make an accounting of their augmentation plan and make reports to the Division Engineer. EXCHANGE 21. General Description of Exchange. PVIC Augmentation Group, LLC seeks to exchange unused recharge accretions accruing to the South Platte River downstream of the PVIC headgate upstream to the PVIC river headgate for re-diversion and delivery to the recharge sites named herein. 21.1. Sources of Substitute Supply: Recharge accretions resulting from the delivery of the Shares changed herein, the PVIC Augmentation Group, LLC Recharge Right or approved additional or alternative sources to the recharge sites decreed herein. 21.2.

APPLICATION FOR ADJUDICATION OF DENVER BASIN GROUNDWATER AND FOR APPROVAL OF PLAN FOR AUGMENTATION I. NAME, ADDRESS AND TELEPHONE NUMBER OF APPLICANTS Lawrence & Laura Clague, 370 Park Ranch Place, Escondito, California 92025, 760-489-6633 Name, Address and Telephone Number of Applicants= Attorneys: FELT, MONSON & CULICHIA, LLC, Chris D. Cummins, #35154, Michael J. Gustafson, #37364, 319 N. Weber St., Colorado Springs, CO 80903, (719) 471-1212 II. APPLICATION FOR ADJUDICATION OF DENVER BASIN GROUND WATER RIGHTS A. Permitted Wells: 1. There is one well currently permitted by the State Engineer constructed upon the Applicants= 5.02 acre property located in the SE1/4 SE1/4 of Section 15, Township 11 South, Range 65 West of the 6th P.M. in El Paso County, Colorado (AApplicants= Property@), as more particularly described on the attached Exhibit A. The existing well is permitted pursuant to C.R.S. '37-92-602(3)(b)(II)(A), under Permit No. 266428. Upon approval of the plan for augmentation requested herein, this well will be re-permitted under C.R.S. '37-90-137 for operation under the plan for augmentation. B. Water Source: 1. Not-nontributary. The ground water that will be withdrawn from the Dawson aquifer of the Denver Basin underlying the Applicants= Property is not-nontributary. Pursuant to C.R.S. 37-90-137(9)(c), the augmentation requirements for wells in the Dawson aquifer will require the replacement of actual stream depletions to the extent necessary to prevent any injurious effect. 2. Nontributary. The ground water that will be withdrawn from the Denver, Arapahoe and Laramie-Fox Hills aquifers of the Denver Basin underlying the Applicants= Property is nontributary. C. Estimated Rates of Withdrawal and Ground Water Available: 1. Estimated Rates of Withdrawal. The pumping rates for wells to be completed to each aquifer are estimated to be between 15 g.p.m. and 100 g.p.m. The actual pumping rate for each well will vary according to aquifer conditions and well production capabilities. The Applicants request the right to withdraw ground water at rates of flow necessary to withdraw the entire decreed amounts, which may be less than or exceed the above estimates. The actual depth of each well to be constructed within the respective aquifers will be determined by actual aquifer conditions. 2. Estimated Average Annual Amounts of Ground Water

Page 11: APRIL 2008 08CW69 LARIMER COUNTY.APRIL 2008 WATER RESUME PUBLICATION TO: ALL PERSONS INTERESTED IN WATER APPLICATIONS IN WATER DIV. 1 Pursuant to C.R.S. 37-92-302, you are notified

Available. Applicants request an absolute water right for the withdrawal of all legally available ground water in the Denver Basin aquifers underlying Applicants= Property. Said amounts may be withdrawn over the 100-year life of the aquifers as set forth in C.R.S. '37-90-137(4), but for the purposes of this Application, withdrawals must be limited to the 300-year subdivision water supply requirements of El Paso County. The estimated average annual amounts of ground water available for withdrawal from the underlying Denver Basin aquifers will be based upon the Denver Basin Rules. Applicants estimate that the following values and average annual amounts are representative of the Denver Basin aquifers underlying Applicant=s Property of 5.02 acres as follows:

Saturated Total Water AnnualAverage Thickness Depth Adjudicated Withdrawal

Aquifer (Feet) (Feet) (Acre Feet) Acre-Feet based on 300 year aquifer life

'37-92-304(11), the Applicants request that the Court retain jurisdiction to finally determine the amount of water available for appropriation and withdrawal from each aquifer. D. Requested Uses: The Applicants request the right to use the ground water for all beneficial uses including, without limitation, domestic, commercial, industrial, irrigation, stock water, recreation, fish and wildlife propagation, fire protection, central water supply for such uses and also for exchange, augmentation, aquifer recharge and replacement purposes. E. Well Fields: Applicants request that they be permitted to produce the full legal entitlement from the Denver Basin aquifers underlying Applicants= Property through any combination of wells. Applicants request that these wells be treated as a well field. Applicants request that they be entitled to withdraw an amount of ground water in excess of the average annual amount decreed to the aquifers beneath the Applicants= Property, so long as the sum of the total withdrawals from all the wells in the aquifers does not exceed the product of the number of years since the date of issuance of the original well permit or the date of entry of a decree herein, whichever comes first, multiplied by the average annual volume of water which the Applicants are entitled to withdraw from the aquifers underlying the Applicants= Property. F. Description of Land Overlying Subject Ground Water: The land overlying the ground water which is the subject of this Application consists of 5.02 acres, as more specifically described in attached Exhibit A, and as depicted in the attached Exhibit B. G. Remarks. The Applicants reserve the right to reserve some additional ground water from quantification in the Dawson aquifer for use by an exempt well pursuant to C.R.S. '37-92-602. H. Name and Address of the Owner of the Land Upon Which the Wells are to be Located: The Applicants, as set forth in Section I above, are the owners of the Applicants= Property, on which the wells are to be located. III. APPLICATION FOR APPROVAL OF PLAN FOR AUGMENTATION A. Name of Structures to be Augmented: One (1) Dawson aquifer well. There are to be no other water rights diverted from this well structure. B. Water Rights to be Used for Augmentation: The water rights to be used for augmentation during pumping are return flows from the not nontributary Dawson aquifer well to be pumped as set forth in this plan of augmentation, together with water rights from the nontributary Laramie-Fox Hills aquifer for post pumping depletions. C. Statement of Plan for Augmentation: Applicant wishes to provide for the augmentation of stream depletions caused by pumping the not nontributary Dawson aquifer well proposed herein for one residential lot. Water use criteria and their consumptive use component for replacement of actual depletions for the lot

Page 12: APRIL 2008 08CW69 LARIMER COUNTY.APRIL 2008 WATER RESUME PUBLICATION TO: ALL PERSONS INTERESTED IN WATER APPLICATIONS IN WATER DIV. 1 Pursuant to C.R.S. 37-92-302, you are notified

is as follows: 1. Household Use Only: 0.30 acre feet annually per single family dwelling with a ten percent consumptive use based on nonevaporative septic leach field disposal systems. The annual consumptive use for this residence is therefore 0.030 acre feet. Any other type of waste water disposal shall require and amendment to this plan of augmentation. 2. Horses (or equivalent livestock): 0.011 acre feet annually (10 gallons per day) per head with a one hundred percent consumptive use component. 3. Landscape Irrigation: 0.046 acre feet annually per 1,000 square feet (2.0 acre feet per acre) per year, with a 85% assumed consumptive use rate. The annual consumptive use for each 1,000 square feet irrigated is therefore 0.039 acre feet. The well suppling the Applicants= Property should therefore be able to pump 0.574 acre feet per year, which is sufficient to support in house purposes, the watering of four horses, and the irrigation of a maximum of 5,000 square feet of lawn or garden. This Application is being filed in Water Divisions 1 and 2 because depletions may occur to both divisions. The return flows set forth above will accrue to the South Platte River system where the majority of depletions occur. Applicant requests that the total amount of depletions to both the South Platte River and the Arkansas River systems be replaced to the South Platte River as set forth herein, and for a finding that those replacements are sufficient. D. Augmentation of Depletions During Pumping: Pursuant to C.R.S. '37-90-137(9)(c) Applicants are required to replace actual stream depletions attributable to pumping of the Dawson well to the extent necessary to prevent injurious effect. Based upon annual pumping of 0.74 acre feet per year, Applicants are required to replace 0.269 acre feet annually. Applicants= have determined that during pumping, septic system return flows from the residence should account for approximately 0.27 acre feet per year. Thus, there is enough return flows through the septic system alone to replace the estimated stream depletions. E. Augmentation for Post Pumping Depletions: For the replacement of post-pumping depletions, Applicants will reserve up to 138.18 acre feet of water from the nontributary Laramie-Fox Hills aquifer underlying the Applicants= Property, less the amount of actual stream depletions replaced during the plan pumping period. Applicants also reserve the right to substitute other legally available augmentation sources for such post pumping depletions upon further approval of the Court under its retained jurisdiction. Even though this reservation is made, Applicants claim that post pumping depletions will be noninjurious and do not need to be replaced. Under the court=s retained jurisdiction, Applicants reserve the right in the future to prove that post pumping depletions will be noninjurious. The reserved nontributary water will be used to replace any injurious post-pumping depletions. Upon entry of a decree in this case, the Applicants will be entitled to file for and receive well permits for the subject Dawson aquifer well for the uses in accordance with this Application. F. Remarks: Additional remarks are as follows: 1. Applicants request a finding that they have complied with C.R.S. '37-90-137(4), and that the ground water requested herein is legally available for withdrawal by the requested not-nontributary wells upon the entry of a decree approving an augmentation plan pursuant to C.R.S. '37-90-137(9)(c). 2. The term of this augmentation plan is for 300 years, however the length of the plan for a particular well or wells may be extended beyond such time provided the total plan pumping allocated thereto is not exceeded. Post pumping stream depletions accrue to a particular well or wells only to the extent related to that well=s actual pumping. 3. The Court will retain jurisdiction over this matter to provide for the adjustment of the annual amount of ground water withdrawals to be allowed in order to conform to actual local aquifer characteristics from adequate information obtained from well drilling or test holes. 4. Pursuant to C.R.S. '37-90-137, upon approval of the plan for augmentation requested herein, Applicant will file an application with the State Engineer=s office to re-permit the existing well on Applicants= 5.02 acres (Permit No. 266428) for operation under the plan for augmentation. 5. The Applicants request a finding that vested water rights of others will not be materially injured by the withdrawals of ground water and the proposed plan for augmentation. 6. The wells shall be installed and metered as reasonably required by the State Engineer. Each well must be equipped

Page 13: APRIL 2008 08CW69 LARIMER COUNTY.APRIL 2008 WATER RESUME PUBLICATION TO: ALL PERSONS INTERESTED IN WATER APPLICATIONS IN WATER DIV. 1 Pursuant to C.R.S. 37-92-302, you are notified

with a totalizing flow meter and Applicants shall submit diversion records to the Division Engineer on an annual basis or as otherwise requested by the Division Engineer. The Applicants shall also provide accountings to the Division Engineer and Water Commissioner as required by them to demonstrate compliance under this plan of augmentation. 8. The Applicants intend to waive the 600 feet well spacing requirement for any wells to be located upon the Applicant=s Property. 9. Applicants will comply with any lienholder notice provisions set forth in C.R.S. '37-92-302(2)(b) and '37-90-137(4)(b.5)(I), and such notice will be sent within 10 days of the filing of this application. 08CW74 WESTCREEK LAKES WATER DISTRICT, c/o Scott A.

11. Historical Use: Applicant seeks to change the use of 4 shares of the 2,499.69 outstanding shares in the New Cache La Poudre Irrigating Company (“New Cache”) and 8 shares of the 3,000 outstanding shares in the Cache La Poudre Reservoir Company (“CLP Reservoir”). Collectively the shares to be changed herein will be referred to as the “New Cache water rights.” From approximately 1924 to 1994, the New Cache water rights were used for irrigation purposes on the N 1/2 of the NW 1/4 of Section 35, Township 6 North, Range 65 West of the 6th P.M. Thereafter, the New Cache water rights have been leased by other water users for irrigation of land within the New Cache La Poudre Irrigating Company service area, which is generally located within the following Sections, Townships and Ranges west of the 6th P.M. in Larimer and Weld counties: Sections 35 and 36, Township 7 North, Range 68 West; Sections 1, 2, 11, 12 and 13, Township 6 North, Range 68 West; Sections 6 through 10, 15 through 27, 35 and 36, Township 6 North, Range 67 West; Sections 16, 17 and 19 through 34 of Township 6 North, Range 66 West; Sections 12 through 17, 19 through 36, Township 6 North, Range 65 West; Sections 1 through 5, Township 5 North, Range 65 West; Sections 7, 8, 12, 13, 14, 18, 19, 20 and 23 through 36, Township 6 North, Range 64 West; Sections 2 through 6, 9 and 10, Township 5 North, Range 64 West; and Sections 7, 8, 9, 16 through 21, 29, 30 and 31, Township 6 North, Range 63 West, all West of the 6th P.M. (“New Cache Service Area”). 12. Proposed Change: Applicants seek a decree changing the use of the New Cache water rights to include, in addition to the existing decreed uses, augmentation, recharge and replacement, either by direct release, following storage for later release, or by exchange, with the right to totally consume the consumable portion of the water, either by first use, reuse or successive use. Applicant proposes to change the New Cache water rights pursuant to the terms, conditions and methodology to be set forth in the final decree of the New Cache La Poudre Irrigating Company’s change case described in the application for Case No. 06CW295 (“New Cache Change Case”). In particular, Applicant seeks to use the fully consumable portion of the New Cache water rights as a source of augmentation, recharge and replacement water to replace the out-of-priority depletions associated with the pumping of the Wells as set forth below in the “Plan for Augmentation” section of this application. PLAN FOR AUGMENTATION. 13. Names of structures to be augmented: A. The Wells described in paragraph 3-8 above. This plan is also intended to replace depletions associated with any replacement well or alternate point of diversion well for the Wells. B. Are there other water rights diverted from the structures? Yes. 14. Previous decree(s) for water right(s) to be used for augmentation: The New Cache water rights described in paragraphs 9-12 above are sought to be changed to make them legally useable as a source of replacement water in this plan for augmentation. Additionally, Applicant may use fully consumable water to which it is or becomes legally entitled by agreement with the Lower Poudre Augmentation Company that is decreed for augmentation purposes in New Cache Change Case and/or the Lower Poudre Augmentation Plan

Page 18: APRIL 2008 08CW69 LARIMER COUNTY.APRIL 2008 WATER RESUME PUBLICATION TO: ALL PERSONS INTERESTED IN WATER APPLICATIONS IN WATER DIV. 1 Pursuant to C.R.S. 37-92-302, you are notified

to augment depletions associated with the pumping of the Wells. Applicant also seeks the right to use, either permanently or temporarily, for augmentation, replacement, and/or recharge in this plan for augmentation, waters that have been decreed for fully consumptive uses, or are fully consumptive by virtue of their nature and legal status, such as transbasin water. Further, Applicant seeks approval of its right to use other sources of water that may be acceptable to the State Engineer as substitute supply water in accordance with §§37-92-308 and 309, C.R.S. 15. Statement of Plan for Augmentation: Water pumped from the Wells is and will be used to supply water to the Facility for irrigation, commercial, domestic and/or household purposes. Pumping of the Wells will result in depletions to the Cache La Poudre River and the South Platte River. Applicant is seeking a permanent plan for augmentation to replace the out-of-priority depletions in time, place and amount so as to prevent injury to vested senior water rights. Applicant intends to deliver the New Cache water rights to recharge facilities described in the Lower Poudre Augmentation Plan pursuant to an agreement between Applicant, LPAC, New Cache and CLP Reservoir. Said agreement entitles CSU to a portion of the fully consumable recharge credits generated. CSU will use its portion of the credits generated to replace depletions for the pumping of the Wells. CSU reserves the right to reuse, successively use, lease or convey any credits to which it is entitled in excess of that necessary to replace depletions from the Wells. The timing of delayed depletions associated with the pumping of the Wells will be computed by the alluvial aquifer option based on the Glover equation of the CSU Integrated Decision Support Group's AWAS (Alluvial Water Accounting System). Applicant’s engineers have estimated that the pumping of the Wells for the purposes described herein will result in up to 20 acre feet of depletions. Given the location of the Wells and the nature of the aquifer, Applicant’s engineers estimate that this pumping will result in a maximum steady state depletion obligation of 1.67 acre feet per month on an ongoing basis. Applicant is not now claiming credit for the return flows from the unconsumed portion of the water pumped (it proposes to replace the entire amount pumped from the Wells), but reserves the right to do so in a future case. Applicant will meter the pumping of the Wells and report said pumping to the Division Engineer, at such times as the Division Engineer may require, together with the depletions accounting and any other information reasonably required by the Division Engineer to assure that other water rights are protected from legal injury by this plan for augmentation. The foregoing statements in this application concerning the proposed change of use of the subject water rights and the statement of the plan for augmentation are provided to comply with the statutory requirements. Applicants recognize that further and different requirements may be imposed, and that the engineering assumptions and methodology may be refined or revised as this case proceeds, and that Applicants may adopt different engineering assumptions and/or methodologies acceptable to the court. 16.

Application for storage rights, plan for augmentation including exchange, and for adjudication of lawn irrigation return flows IN ADAMS, DENVER AND WELD COUNTIES. David C. Taussig, Matthew Merrill, White & Jankowski, LLP, 511 Sixteenth Street, #500, Denver, Colorado 80202, (303) 595-9441. 2. Introductory Remarks. Applicant, the City of Thornton owns and operates an integrated municipal water and sewer system supplying water and sewer service to those within its service area as it now exists and as it may grow in the future, and to those with contracts for water supply service. As part of its conservation planning, Thornton has and is embarking on a program to develop alternative sources of water for non-potable irrigation purposes on its parks, ball fields

Page 20: APRIL 2008 08CW69 LARIMER COUNTY.APRIL 2008 WATER RESUME PUBLICATION TO: ALL PERSONS INTERESTED IN WATER APPLICATIONS IN WATER DIV. 1 Pursuant to C.R.S. 37-92-302, you are notified

and other public spaces. Additionally, during the past several years the City has acquired ponds and reservoirs through the development process which may store water out-of-priority from storm water events and other flows. Thornton intends to use this out-of-priority water stored in some of these ponds for non-potable irrigation of nearby city property and to augment these out-of-priority depletions with a plan for augmentation sought to be approved in this application. Thornton also irrigates some parks with water from nontributary wells in the Lower Arapahoe aquifer that is also stored in some of the ponds. The augmentation component of this application seeks to include Thornton’s 2% statutory replacement obligation in the plan for augmentation. Thornton seeks to adjudicate and quantify the lawn irrigation return flow credits for the fully consumable raw (non-potable) water that is used for irrigation of these parks and on the Thorncreek Golf Course. (Thornton’s lawn irrigation return flows from its treated water system were adjudicated in Thornton’s Northern Project, consolidated Case Nos. 86CW104, 86CW402, 86CW403 and 87CW333 and are not involved in this application). Finally, Thornton seeks the ability to add additional ponds, non-potable irrigation of additional parks, and the quantification of lawn irrigation return flows using non-potable supplies at those parks to this application under the same terms and conditions decreed herein. A general location map showing the ponds and parks is attached as Exhibit A to the Application. a. Water Storage Component. Thornton owns or controls twenty two ponds and reservoirs, both on-channel and off-channel. Exhibit B attached hereto describes the various characteristics of the ponds. These ponds are supplied with varying combinations of water from three primary sources: shares in mutual ditch companies that have been changed, nontributary wells, and diverted water or intercepted stormwater. Thornton seeks storage rights for sixteen of these ponds. b. Augmentation Component. This part of the plan involves the determination of the amount of out-of-priority depletions associated with the water storage in Thornton’s ponds and the use of water stored out of priority for non-potable irrigation and other uses. So as to prevent injury to other water rights, this augmentation plan will replace the out-of-priority depletions in timing, location, and amount with substitute supplies of water that are decreed for reuse and augmentation. The plan will also satisfy the statutory 2% relinquishment obligation for water pumped from Thornton’s non-tributary wells that serve the ponds and nearby park and recreation lands. c. Lawn Irrigation Return Flow Component. A portion of the water that will be applied for non-potable irrigation use on Thornton’s parks and golf course will be fully consumable. Accordingly, Thornton seeks to quantify and claim credits for return flows from that irrigation of 17% groundwater component and 2% of surface water returns. 3. Claim for Storage Rights Introduction. As part of ongoing development in recent years, the City of Thornton has acquired ponds and reservoirs that store water out of priority. Thornton is also in the design process for several new ponds. Some of these ponds are filled with water from nontributary wells and stormwater, as well as Thornton’s ditch company shares from previous change decrees. Thornton seeks the following absolute and conditional storage rights for sixteen of those ponds that are capable of storing storm water flows and other stream flows that do not already have a decree. 4. Storage Rights for Thornton’s Ponds. The particular elements for these appropriations for those 16 ponds are as follows: a. Aylor Ponds (7 ponds). i. Location: SE 1/4 of Section 20, T. 1 S., R. 67 W., 6th P.M., Adams County, Colorado. ii. Source: Unnamed tributary of Brantner Gulch. iii. Date of appropriation: April 22, 2008. iv. Amount: 32 acre-feet (“AF”) (absolute). v. Uses: Municipal uses, including, but not limited to, watering of parks, lawns, gardens and other public spaces, irrigation, agricultural, recreation, piscatorial, wildlife preservation, lake and reservoir evaporation, fire protection, street sprinkling, and aesthetic purposes and for replacement, adjustment and regulation of Thornton’s storage and delivery systems, and those of its users, among themselves and with others. Thornton may divert, store and use the water directly, by and for exchange, augmentation, substitution, replacement or otherwise, as may be appropriate to maximize its lawful use. Thornton may reuse, successively use, dispose of, and/or otherwise apply all water to extinction. The return flow discharged or released by Thornton attributable to the exercise of this right shall have associated with it the

Page 21: APRIL 2008 08CW69 LARIMER COUNTY.APRIL 2008 WATER RESUME PUBLICATION TO: ALL PERSONS INTERESTED IN WATER APPLICATIONS IN WATER DIV. 1 Pursuant to C.R.S. 37-92-302, you are notified

same rights of use, reuse, successive use and disposition. The water may be placed to use within the Thornton service area as it now exists or may exist in the future. b. Grandview Ponds (Nos. 1, 2, 3). i. Grandview Ponds are located in the NW 1/4 of Section 18, T. 2 S., R. 67 W., 6th P.M., Adams County, Colorado. ii. Source: Unnamed tributary to Grange Hall Creek. iii. Date of appropriation: As stated in ¶ 4.a.iii, above. iv. Amount: 9.12 AF (absolute). v. Uses: As stated in ¶ 4.a.v, above. c.

Amount: 29.9 AF (absolute). v. Uses: As stated in ¶ 4.a.v, above. f. Recreation Center Pond. i. The Recreation Center Pond to be located in the NE 1/4 of Section 12, T. 2 S., R. 68 W., 6th P.M., Adams County, Colorado. ii. Source: Unnamed tributary of Grange Hall Creek. iii. Date of appropriation: As stated in ¶ 4.a.iii, above. iv. Amount: 65 AF (conditional). v. Uses: As stated in ¶ 4.a.v, above. 5. Further remarks pertaining to storage right appropriations. a. With respect to the conditional claim stated above, Thornton claims the right to confirm additional amounts as absolute, without further notice or publication, based on its exercise of the subject water rights from the date of their appropriation up to the time of any hearing in these proceedings. b. Thornton also seeks the ability to add additional ponds to be augmented under this plan upon terms and conditions that the court may decree. 6. Plan for Augmentation Including Exchange Introduction. This part of the claim is for approval of a plan for augmentation including exchange to satisfy Thornton’s replacement obligations with respect to the out-of-priority storage of water in the ponds for which junior storage rights are claimed in paragraph 4 above and three additional ponds that have existing decrees. In general, Thornton will record inflows that it impounds in its ponds and provide augmentation water back to the river in timing, location and amount to replace the out-of-priority storage in a manner so that senior appropriators are not injured. Thornton may also pump water from nontributary wells into the ponds for subsequent irrigation use, and this plan will also satisfy Thornton’s 2% release obligation arising from use of its nontributary wells. Thornton will record the amount of water pumped from these nontributary wells and 2% of the total nontributary water pumped will be released to the stream system from Thornton’s augmentation supplies. 7. Name of Structures to be Augmented. a. Each of the structures described above in paragraphs 4.a – 4.f. b.

The City maintains water accounting to distinguish those sources that are available for use for augmentation, such as in this augmentation

Page 23: APRIL 2008 08CW69 LARIMER COUNTY.APRIL 2008 WATER RESUME PUBLICATION TO: ALL PERSONS INTERESTED IN WATER APPLICATIONS IN WATER DIV. 1 Pursuant to C.R.S. 37-92-302, you are notified

plan, and those which are not. The reusable water in Thornton's portfolio may be used on a first use basis or following other uses. These sources of augmentation water are used under a number of the City's decrees depending upon Thornton's then-occurring needs and operations. Accordingly, these sources are not dedicated exclusively to this plan for augmentation, but are available for use under this plan pursuant to the terms and conditions of this decree. More particularly the sources of water that will be used in this plan can be broken down into sources derived based on Thornton's decrees and those it is entitled to use pursuant to contract, as follows: a. List of Water Rights. Attached as Exhibit C is a list of Thornton water rights to be used for augmentation purposes pursuant to this decree. These sources generally include the consumptive use attributable to changed irrigation rights in the South Platte Basin, transmountain sources, nontributary rights, and water rights that have been originally decreed for augmentation purposes, including lawn irrigation return flows generated by the exercise of such rights in accordance with the decree in Consolidated Cases 86CW401, etc., Water Division 1. Some of the sources on the list are single use water rights denoted by footnote 2. They are decreed for augmentation purposes, but the water is not reusable. b. Unchanged Shares in Ditch Companies. Thornton has acquired additional shares in certain ditch companies. The underlying water right decrees for these shares are also identified on Exhibit C. Some of these shares are included in pending applications to change their use. Change applications for other shares have not yet been filed, and they are denoted on the list by footnote 1. After change decrees have been entered for these unchanged shares, but not before, these ditch shares will be available for use as augmentation sources herein; provided, however, that Thornton may also use these unchanged shares for augmentation purposes herein if they are pending change in a water court application and Thornton obtains approval from the SEO to use the unchanged shares on a temporary basis for augmentation purposes under the procedures set forth in C.R.S. § 37-92-308 as it may be amended. c. Subject Water Rights. The water rights described in paragraph 4 and 7.b – 7.e above. d. Contract Supplies. Thornton has available to it by agreements with other water users the following additional sources that will be used in this plan for augmentation. i. Coors. Under an agreement dated December 23, 1996, Thornton has the right to deliveries from Coors of up to 600 AF of reusable water per year at a rate not to exceed 2.5 cubic feet per second (“cfs”). ii. Westminster. Under an agreement dated January 7, 1982, Thornton has the right to deliveries from Westminster of up to 500 AF of reusable water per year at a rate not to exceed 4 cfs. iii. Public Service Company. Under an agreement dated May 13, 1994, Thornton has the right to deliveries from Public Service Company of 71 AF of fully consumable water per year at a rate not to exceed 1 cfs. iv. Westminster. Under an agreement dated October 10, 1990, Thornton receives reusable water that is booked over from Westminster to Thornton in Standley Lake of variable pro rata amount of up to 375 AF per year. v. Consolidated Mutual Water Co. Under an agreement dated October 17, 1997, Thornton has the right to receive deliveries of reusable water up to 120 AF per year at a rate not to exceed 50 cfs. vi. Aurora. Under an agreement dated May 20, 2003, Thornton has the right to receive deliveries of reusable water from Aurora in an amount of 7,883 AF per year. vii. Arvada. Under an agreement dated October 16, 2006, Thornton has the right to receive deliveries of reusable water from Arvada up to a maximum rate of 12 cfs between April 1 and October 31. e. Additional Sources. Thornton will also use as augmentation supplies any other water rights or sources of water that Thornton then owns or controls, provided that they are decreed for augmentation purposes. These sources may include consumptive use attributable to changed irrigation water rights, trans-mountain water, developed water, or decreed nontributary groundwater provided that Thornton can make such supplies available at the locations, at the time, and in the amount necessary to prevent injury. 9. Statement of Plan for Augmentation. Thornton will operate the storage rights described in paragraphs 4.a and 7.b – 7.d when they are in priority. Thornton will perform daily accounting of all water stored. It will release water from its augmentation supplies to replace depletions caused by the out-of-priority storage in time, location and amount as necessary to prevent injury to other water users.

Page 24: APRIL 2008 08CW69 LARIMER COUNTY.APRIL 2008 WATER RESUME PUBLICATION TO: ALL PERSONS INTERESTED IN WATER APPLICATIONS IN WATER DIV. 1 Pursuant to C.R.S. 37-92-302, you are notified

Thornton will account for the water pumped from its deep wells described in paragraph 7.e and release water from its augmentation supplies amounting to 2% of the total water pumped from these wells. a. Location of Augmentation Water Releases. The majority of the augmentation water will be discharged from the Metropolitan Wastewater Reclamation District outfall, the location of which is described below. Depending, however, upon the derivation of source of the augmentation water, the provision of augmentation water pursuant to this augmentation plan will also be provided from any of the following locations, but in each instance above the downstream calling water right: i. Metropolitan Waste Water Reclamation District Outfall, presently located in the SE 1/4 of the SW 1/4 of Section 1, T. 3 S., R. 68 W., 6th P.M., Adams County Colorado or any such similar facility at which Thornton’s treated effluent is discharged in the future. ii. The confluence of Sand Creek and the South Platte River located in the SE 1/4 of the SW 1/4 of Section 1 T. 3 S., R. 68 W., 6th P.M., Adams County Colorado. iii. The confluence of Clear Creek and the South Platte River located in the SW 1/4 of the SE 1/4 of Section 36 T. 2 S., R. 68 W., 6th P.M., Adams County Colorado. iv. The confluence of Grange Hall Creek and the South Platte River located in the E 1/2 of the SE 1/4 of Section 8, T. 2 S., R. 67 W., 6th P.M., Adams County, Colorado. v. The confluence of Brantner Gulch and the South Platte River located in the NW 1/4 of Section 26, T. 1 S. R. 67 W., 6th P.M., Adams County, Colorado. vi. The confluence of Big Dry Creek and the South Platte River located in the NW 1/4 of the NW 1/4 of Section 7, T. 1 N., R. 66 W., 6th P.M., Weld County Colorado. vii. The confluence of Cherry Creek and the South Platte River located in the NE 1/4 of the NW 1/4, Section 33, T. 3 S., R. 68 W., 6th P.M., Denver County, Colorado. viii. At the three locations for Thornton’s taking credits for lawn irrigation return flows specified in paragraph 63.5.3 of the decree in Consolidated Cases 86CW401, etc. ix. At the locations were Thornton plans to take lawn irrigation return flow credits under this application, as described in paragraphs 13.a – 13.h and 16. x. Any other location that augmentation water can be released above the downstream calling water right in a manner so as to prevent injury. 10. Exchange Components of Plan. When the replacement water is provided below the point of diversion and place of storage in the ponds, the plan for augmentation will include an element of an exchange, for which Thornton seeks confirmation of an appropriation date of April 22, 2008, through the following reaches and in the following conditional amounts: a. From the confluence of Grange Hall Creek and the South Platte River, up Grange Hall and its unnamed tributaries: i. To Grandview Ponds in the amount of 1.5 cfs; ii. To Lambertson Lakes in the amount of 8.7 cfs; iii. To Civic Center Lake in the amount of 16.5 cfs; iv. To Grange Creek Park Pond in the amount of .3 cfs; and v. To Recreation Center Pond in the amount of 10.9 cfs. b. From the confluence of Brantner Gulch and the South Platte River, up Brantner Gulch and its unnamed tributaries: i. To Aylor Ponds in the amount of 5.4 cfs; ii. To Marshall Lakes in the amount of 5.0 cfs; and iii. To Eastlake No. 3 in the amount of 16.3 cfs. c. From the confluence of Big Dry Creek and the South Platte River up Big Dry Creek to Hunter’s Glen Pond in the amount of 27.8 cfs. d. From confluence of Big Dry Creek and South Platte River up the South Platte River to points described in paragraphs 10.a.i – 10.a.v and 10.b.i – 10.b.iii. 11. Remarks. a. Consistent with the requirement for release of storm water flows within a three (3) day period (72 hours), Thornton proposes to either release storm water or to augment out of priority storage of storm water over a three day period after the storm event. b. As additional ponds are brought into the City’s boundaries, Thornton seeks the ability to include those additional ponds to be augmented under this program under terms and conditions of the court’s decree herein. c. Although the wells listed as sources to be augmented herein (¶ 7.e) are not tributary to any natural stream and are not subject to priority administration, the use of water from these wells carries a 2% statutory relinquishment obligation that Thornton seeks to fulfill through release of augmentation supplies under this plan. If additional nontributary wells are drilled, Thornton seeks the right to satisfy the 2% relinquishment obligations for those wells as part of this plan. Thornton also reserves the right to adjudicate any nontributary and not nontributary groundwater in the Denver Basin Formations that it may now claim or may have the right to withdraw and use

Page 25: APRIL 2008 08CW69 LARIMER COUNTY.APRIL 2008 WATER RESUME PUBLICATION TO: ALL PERSONS INTERESTED IN WATER APPLICATIONS IN WATER DIV. 1 Pursuant to C.R.S. 37-92-302, you are notified

in the future. 12. Claim for Lawn Irrigation Return Flows from City Parks Introduction. Thornton uses, or plans to use, the water in some of its ponds to irrigate nearby municipal property. The water stored in these ponds comes from various sources, all of which are deemed fully consumable, such as changed shares in mutual ditch companies for which return flows have been made, water stored in priority under this application, water stored out of priority but augmented under this application, or nontributary groundwater. 13. Locations of Irrigation of City Parks for Which Return Flows are Claimed: Thornton irrigates the following described parks and surrounding or nearby municipal property from the following ponds in Adams County, Colorado: a. Community Park located in the NE 1/4, Section 23, T. 2 S., R. 68 W., 6th P.M. and the NW 1/4, Section 24, T. 2 S., R. 68 W., 6th P.M., supplied with water from Community Park Pond, located in the NW 1/4 of Section 24, T. 2 S., R. 68 W., 6th P.M. b. Civic Center Park located the S 1/2 of Section 15, T. 2 S., R. 68 W., 6th P.M., supplied with water from Civic Center Lake (a.k.a. Croke Reservoir No. 12, Croke and Badding Reservoirs), the location of which is described above. c. Grange Creek Park located in the NW 1/4 of Section 7, T. 2 S., R. 67 W., 6th P.M. supplied with water from Grange Creek Park Pond, the location of which is described above. d. Hunter’s Glen Park located in SW 1/4 of Section 26, T. 1 S., R. 68 W., 6th P.M. supplied with water from Hunter’s Glen Reservoir (a.k.a. Poitz Reservoir), the location of which is described above. e. Cherry Park located in the SW 1/4 of Section 6, T. 2 S., R. 67 W., 6th P.M. supplied with water from Nott Pond, located in the NW 1/4 of Section 6, T. 2 S., R. 67 W., 6th P.M. f. Recreation Center located in NE 1/4 of Section 12, T. 2 S., R. 68 W., 6th P.M., supplied with water from Recreation Center Pond, the location of which is described above. g. Woodglen/Brookshire Park located in NW1/4 SE 1/4, NE 1/4 SW 1/4, and SE 1/4 NW 1/4 of Section 1, T. 2 S., R. 68 W., 6th P.M. supplied with water from Woodglen/Brookshire Pond, to be located in E 1/2 of Section 1, T. 2 S., R. 68 W., 6th P.M. h. Thornton Sports Complex located in the NW 1/4 of Section 17, T. 2 S., R. 67 W., 6th P.M. to be supplied with water from West Cooley Gravel Pit located in the N 1/2 of Section 17, T. 2 S. R. 67 W., 6th P.M. 14. Description of Quantification of LIRF. Irrigation at the parks is performed using underground sprinklers. Irrigation efficiency was assumed to be approximately 81%. A study was conducted in 1991 (LIRF Report) to support the establishment of LIRFs for Thornton’s Northern Water Supply Project (Spronk Water Engineers, 1991). While this study focused on LIRFs resulting from domestic outdoor water use using treated water, it also applied to irrigation use at commercial, industrial, and park sites with treated water. The results of this study were that average monthly deep percolation rates on park lands ranged from 17% to 31% of the water applied. The decree associated with the Northern Water Supply Project (Consolidated Cases No, 86CW401, 86CW402, 86CW403, 87CW332) includes a lawn irrigation efficiency of 81%. The decree terms provide that, of the 19% of lawn irrigation water that is not consumed, 17% occurs as deep percolation and 2% occurs as surface return flows. Thornton proposes to adopt these return flow percentages. Through the accounting procedure set forth below, Thornton will maintain sufficient dominion over the reusable portion of those LIRFs that they may be used as substitute supply. a. On a monthly basis, the amount of fully consumable water used on each of these lands will be computed as the sum of all metered usage of irrigation water. b. Two percent (2%) of the volume of fully consumable water applied will be credited as an augmentation supply resulting from surface runoff to be used as substitute supply. c. Seventeen percent (17%) of the volume of fully consumable water applied will be credited as augmentation supply resulting from deep percolation. The amount of deep percolation from each irrigated area will be multiplied by Glover lagging factors to determine the lagged timing of return flows to the South Platte River or Big Dry Creek. d. Accounting forms and procedures approved by the Division Engineer will be used to record the amount of reusable return flow accruing to the South Platte River and Big Dry Creek on a monthly basis attributable to park land irrigation in previous months.15. Claim for Lawn Irrigation Return Flows from Thorncreek Golf Course Introduction. The City uses two sources of water to irrigate the Thorncreek Golf Course. Each source of water is metered

Page 26: APRIL 2008 08CW69 LARIMER COUNTY.APRIL 2008 WATER RESUME PUBLICATION TO: ALL PERSONS INTERESTED IN WATER APPLICATIONS IN WATER DIV. 1 Pursuant to C.R.S. 37-92-302, you are notified

separately. Greens are irrigated using treated water from Thornton’s municipal water system. The source of water for all other irrigated areas at the golf course is a diversion from Big Dry Creek taken under a direct flow water right and an exchange decreed in Case No. 87CW333. In paragraph 30 of the decree in Case No. 87CW333, Thornton reserved the right to claim LIRFs for reusable water applied to the Golf Course by exchange. The City’s accounting will document the amount of fully consumable water applied for irrigation and the LIRFs resulting from this irrigation. 16. Location of Golf Course Lands For Which LIRFs Are Claimed: E 1/2 of Section 27 and N 1/2 of Section 26, T. 1 S., R. 68 W., 6th P.M., Adams County, CO. 17. Description of Quantification of LIRF. Water diverted under the exchange in Case No. 87CW333 is stored in ponds at the golf course until it can be used for irrigation. The fully consumable water that is diverted under this exchange and applied to the golf course for irrigation will generate LIRFs in the same manner as described above for park lands. The LIRFs accrue to Big Dry Creek. Thornton’s accounting will document the amount of fully consumable water applied for irrigation and the LIRFs resulting from this irrigation. Single use water diverted under the direct flow water right and applied for irrigation will not be claimed as LIRFs. Similarly, LIRFs will not be claimed under this plan for the irrigation of greens using treated water from the municipal system. Through the accounting procedure set forth below, Thornton will maintain sufficient dominion over the reusable portion of those LIRFs that they may be used as substitute supply. a. Thornton will account for the portion of fully consumable water applied to the golf course. The golf course currently receives water from three sources. The greens are irrigated with treated water, and are not included in this application. The remainder of the golf course is irrigated with direct diversions from Big Dry Creek, either in-priority or by exchange. When the Big Dry Creek right is out-of-priority, Thornton irrigates using exchanges from the release of water from the Metro waste water treatment plant described in paragraph 9.a.i. A portion of this effluent owned by Thornton is fully consumable, and Thornton maintains daily accounting of the fully consumable proportion of Metro effluent. This fully consumable effluent used to irrigate by exchange is the subject of this application for LIRFs. b. On a monthly basis, the amount of fully consumable water used on the golf course will be computed as follows: Thornton will sum the amount of fully consumable Metro effluent for each day that the effluent is applied by exchange to the golf course using the daily exchange accounting described in sub-paragraph a, above. c. Two percent (2%) of the volume of fully consumable water applied will be credited as an augmentation supply resulting from surface runoff to be used as substitute supply. d. Seventeen percent (17%) of the volume of fully consumable water applied will be credited as augmentation supply resulting from deep percolation. The amount of deep percolation from each irrigated area will be multiplied by Glover lagging factors to determine the lagged timing of return flows to Big Dry Creek. e. Accounting forms and procedures approved by the Division Engineer will be used to record the amount of reusable return flow accruing to Big Dry Creek on a monthly basis attributable to golf course irrigation in previous months. 18. Remarks. Thornton seeks the ability to add additional parks or golf courses to this plan and claim lawn irrigation return flows resulting for application of reusable water to those lands under terms and conditions that the court may decree herein. 19. Name and address of owners of land on which the structures in this application are or will be located, and upon which water is or will be placed to beneficial use. On information and belief, the City of Thornton owns the land upon which the ponds, wells, and other structures above will be located, and upon which the water will be used, except for Eastlake Reservoir No. 3, which is owned by the Eastlake Water Company (address below). Eastlake Water Company, Attn: Mary Hull, President, 12450 Washington Street, Thornton, Colorado 80241-2405. WHEREFORE, The City of Thornton requests the entry of a decree approving this Application.

Date water was applied to beneficial use: N/A. 8. Amount claimed: 50 gpm, conditional. 9. Proposed use: Irrigation, commercial (including sanitary and hand washing), industrial, irrigation, and fire protection. Application for Plan for Augmentation. 10. Name of structure to be augmented: The Well described above. Applicant also intends that this plan for augmentation include any replacement well(s) for the Well. Water rights to be used for augmentation: Applicant intends to enter into a temporary lease agreement with the East Larimer County Water District (“ELCO”) to utilize water from Sand Creek, a tributary to the Laramie River, to replace the depletions associated with the pumping of the Well. Such water is foreign to and imported into the Cache la Poudre River basin, and as such may be used, reused and successively used to extinction pursuant to C.R.S. §37-82-106. Applicant intends to use other augmentation water supplies that are, or become, legally suitable for augmentation use in this plan, and intends to propose procedures for inclusion of additional augmentation supplies, including the inclusion, on a temporary or permanent basis, of waters that have been decreed as fully consumable or are fully consumable by definition; waters that have been or are in the process of being decreed for augmentation purposes; leased water supplies; Colorado-Big Thompson Water (including by exchange) in accordance with the policies of the Northern Colorado Water Conservancy District; and water sources suitable for augmentation use in this plan pursuant to §37-92-308, C.R.S. and §37-92-

Page 28: APRIL 2008 08CW69 LARIMER COUNTY.APRIL 2008 WATER RESUME PUBLICATION TO: ALL PERSONS INTERESTED IN WATER APPLICATIONS IN WATER DIV. 1 Pursuant to C.R.S. 37-92-302, you are notified

309, C.R.S. 11. Statement of plan for augmentation. Applicant operates a manufacturing facility (“Facility”) that constructs pneumatic spillway gates. The Facility is located approximately five miles northwest of the Town of Wellington. Water pumped from the Well will be used at the Facility for the uses stated in paragraph 9 above to supply water to the Facility and to irrigation of the grounds around the Facility. Pumping of the Well will result in depletions to the Box Elder Creek, a tributary of the Cache La Poudre River. Applicant’s engineers have estimated that projected gross pumping of the Well will result in approximately 0.347 acre feet of depletions annually. Given the location of the Well and the nature of the aquifer, Applicant’s engineers estimate that this pumping will result in steady state depletion of approximately 0.029 acre feet per month on an ongoing basis. Applicant will replace these depletions (by augmentation or exchange) by placing water into an on-site recharge pond and/or introducing water into the Box Elder and/or Cache La Poudre stream systems so as to replace out-of-priority depletions in time, amount and location. Applicant will meter the pumping of the Well and report said pumping to the Division Engineer, at such times as the Division Engineer may require, together with the depletions accounting and any other information reasonably required by the Division Engineer to assure that other water rights are protected from legal injury by this plan for augmentation. The foregoing statements in this application are provided to comply with the statutory notice requirements. Further and different requirements may be imposed, and engineering assumptions and methodology may be refined or revised as this case proceeds, and Applicants may adopt different engineering assumptions and/or methodologies acceptable to the court. 12. Names and addresses of owners of land on which structure is or will be located, upon which water is or will be stored, or upon which water is or will be placed to beneficial use: Applicant is the owner of the land upon which all structures are located and will be used.

APPLICATION FOR DETERMINATION OF NONTRIBUTARY AND NOT NONTRIBUTARY UNDERGROUND WATER RIGHTS IN THE DENVER BASIN AQUIFERS IN WELD COUNTY. Well Permits: Well permits will be applied for prior to construction of the wells. Legal Description of Wells and Subject Property: The wells, which will withdraw groundwater from the nontributary Laramie-Fox Hills aquifer and the not nontributary Arapahoe aquifer located on approximately 848.5 acres of land located in the South Half of Section 24, in Section 25 and in the Northeast Quarter of Section 26, Township 2 North, Range 65 West and in the Northwest Quarter of Section 30, Township 2 North, Range 64 West, all of the Sixth Principal Meridian, County of Weld, State of Colorado, which is more particularly described on Exhibit A (Figure 1) attached hereto (the “Subject Property”). Source of Water: Applicants request the right to withdraw and use all physically and legally available water from the aquifers underlying the Subject Property. The groundwater to be withdrawn by Applicants from the Laramie-Fox Hills aquifer on the Subject Property is nontributary groundwater as defined in C.R.S. § 37-90-103(10.5). The groundwater to be withdrawn by Applicants from the Arapahoe aquifer below the Subject Property is not nontributary as defined in C.R.S. § 37-90-103(10.7). Applicants will comply with the requirement to relinquish to the surface stream system two percent (2%) of all such nontributary ground water withdrawn on an annual basis and to obtain judicial approval of a plan for augmentation prior to using any not nontributary ground water. Said water may be fully consumed to extinction for all beneficial uses. Estimated Amounts and Rates of Withdrawal: The wells will withdraw the groundwater at rates of flow necessary to efficiently withdraw the entire decreed amounts. The estimated average annual amounts of withdrawal available from the subject aquifers as indicated below, are based on the Denver Basin Rules:

Aquifer Amount Arapahoe 61.4 acre-feet Laramie-Fox Hills 179.3 acre-feet

Well Field: Applicants request that this Court determine that Applicants have the right to withdraw all of the legally available groundwater lying below the Subject Property, through wells which may be located anywhere on the Subject Property, and any additional wells which may be completed in the future as Applicants' well fields. As additional wells are constructed, applications will be filed in accordance with C.R.S.§ 37-90-137(10). Proposed Uses: Applicants will use, reuse, and successively use the water for domestic, commercial, industrial, irrigation, livestock watering, fire protection, storage, and exchange and augmentation purposes, both on and off the Subject Property. Ownership of Overlying Land: Applicants are the owners of the Subject Property and have attached the State Engineer’s form entitled “Nontributary Ground Water Landownership Statement” as Exhibit B hereto. Applicants will give notice to every person who has a lien, mortgage or deed of trust on the Subject Property as required by C.R.S. § 37-92-302(2)(b). Relief Requested: Applicants request that the Court enter the following relief: A. All of the ground water underneath the Subject Property may be withdrawn subject to the terms and conditions included in a decree to be entered in this case, and that the Applicants have a vested right to use said ground water. B. The amounts and rates of withdrawals set forth

Page 30: APRIL 2008 08CW69 LARIMER COUNTY.APRIL 2008 WATER RESUME PUBLICATION TO: ALL PERSONS INTERESTED IN WATER APPLICATIONS IN WATER DIV. 1 Pursuant to C.R.S. 37-92-302, you are notified

above can be withdrawn without causing material injury to the vested rights of others, provided that the terms and conditions in said decree are complied with. C. Applicants have the right to withdraw all Denver Basin aquifer ground water under the Subject Property through any wells initially permitted under C.R.S. § 37-90-137(10) in such aquifers, and any additional wells which may be permitted and completed in the future on the Subject Property. D. Applicants request that each well may withdraw water at the rate necessary to withdraw the full allowed annual amount of nontributary ground water. E. Applicants claim the right to withdraw more than the average annual amount estimated in this application pursuant to Rule 8.A of the Statewide Nontributary Groundwater Rules, 2 C.C.R. 402-7. F. Although the Applicants have estimated the amount of water available for withdrawal from the Arapahoe and Laramie-Fox Hills aquifers, Applicants request the right to revise those estimates based on the findings of the State Engineer or actual data or better data made available at the time of withdrawal without the necessity of amending this application or republishing the same. Applicants further request the right to invoke the retained jurisdiction of the Court provided for in C.R.S. § 37-92-305(11), to adjust the amount of water available for withdrawal from such aquifers. WHEREFORE, Applicants request this Court to enter a decree granting the application herein and awarding ground water rights from the Arapahoe and Laramie-Fox Hills aquifers, and determining that Applicants have complied with Section 37-90-137(4), C.R.S., that water is legally available for withdrawal by Applicants through the wells proposed herein and that the withdrawal of nontributary ground water under the Subject Property will not materially injure the vested or conditionally decreed water rights of others. Applicants further request that the Court enter such other relief as the Court deems proper in this matter. 08CW89 TIMBERPOINTE, LLC, Applicant, APPLICATION FOR UNDERGROUND WATER RIGHTS FROM NOT NONTRIBUTARY SOURCES AND FOR APPROVAL OF PLAN FOR AUGMENTATION AND CHANGE OF WATER RIGHT, IN THE NOT NONTRIBUTARY UPPER DAWSON AQUIFER, IN DOUGLAS COUNTY. 1.

Reg. #2881, 700 Seventeenth Street, Suite 1800, Denver, Colorado 80202, telephone: (303) 534-0702. 2. Well Permits: Well permits will be applied for prior to construction of the wells. 3. Legal Description of Wells and Subject Property: The wells which will withdraw groundwater from the not nontributary Upper Dawson will be located at any location on approximately 59.2 acres of land located in the NW1/4 of Section 1, T8S, R66W of the 6th P.M., as described and shown on Attachment A hereto ("Subject Property"). 4. Source of Water Rights: The source of the groundwater to be withdrawn from the Upper Dawson aquifer is not nontributary as described in 37-90-103(10.7) and 37-90-137(9)(c), C.R.S. 5. Amount and Rates of Withdrawal: The wells will withdraw the groundwater at rates of flow necessary to withdraw the entire decreed amount. Applicant waives any 600 foot spacing rule as described in Section 37-90-137(2), C.R.S. for wells located on the Subject Property. The estimated average annual amounts of withdrawal available from the subject aquifer is based upon the Denver Basin Rules, 2 C.C.R. 402-6. The Upper Dawson aquifer groundwater underlying the Subject Property was previously decreed in Case No. 05CW85, except for 4 acre-feet per year which was reserved for use through an exempt well. No exempt well is required on the Subject Property and Applicant requests that this 4 acre-feet per year be quantified and decreed in this case. 6. Well Field: Applicant requests that this Court determine that they have the right to withdraw all of the legally available groundwater lying below the Subject Property, through wells which may be located anywhere on the Subject Property, and any additional wells which may be completed in the future as Applicant's well field.

Case No. 05CW85. 7. Proposed Use: Applicant will use, reuse, and successively use the water for domestic, commercial, irrigation, livestock watering, fire protection, and augmentation purposes, both on and off the Subject Property. 8. Jurisdiction: The Water Court has jurisdiction over the subject matter of this application pursuant to 37-92-302(2), and 37-90-137(6), C.R.S. 9. Description of plan for augmentation: A. Groundwater to be augmented: 4 acre-feet per year of Upper Dawson aquifer groundwater as requested herein as described in paragraph 5 above. B. Water rights to be used for augmentation: Return flows from the use of not nontributary Uppper Dawson aquifer groundwater and return flows or direct discharge of nontributary ground water as owned by Applicant as decreed in Case No. 05CW85. Applicant requests that this plan for augmentation be operated in combination with an augmentation plan previously approved for withdrawal of 12 acre-feet per year of Upper Dawson groundwater in Case No. 05CW85, including use of excess return flows generated by use of the water in Case No. 05CW85 to allow use of the groundwater herein. C. Statement of plan for augmentation: Applicant will use the 4 acre-feet per year of Upper Dawson aquifer water herein for use in a water feature and for irrigation purposes on the Subject Property. It is estimated that approximately 90% of water used for irrigation will be consumptively used. During pumping Applicant will replace actual depletions to the affected stream system pursuant to 37-90-137(9)(c), C.R.S., using return flows from irrigation use herein and excess return flows generated from operation of the augmentation plan in Case No. 05CW85. Applicant estimates that depletions may occur to the Cherry Creek stream system. Return flows via that stream system will accrue to the South Platte River stream system and are sufficient to replace actual depletions while the subject groundwater is being pumped. Applicant will reserve an equal amount of nontributary groundwater owned by Applicant and decreed in Case No. 05CW85 to meet post pumping augmentation requirements, but reserves the right to substitute the use of other nontributary groundwater, including return flows, either underlying the Subject Property, or from another location which is legally available for such purpose, for replacement of post-pumping depletions at such time that post-pumping depletions may begin. 10. Change of water right: Applicant requests a change of water right to allow some of the excess return flows generated from use of Upper Dawson aquifer groundwater pursuant to the augmentation plan in Case No. 05CW85, to be used to replace actual depletions caused by pumping of the 4 acre-feet per year of Upper Dawson aquifer groundwater requested herein. Actual depletions from pumping of the Upper Dawson aquifer water on the Subject Property at 100 years of pumping is estimated to be 15.11% of the annual amount withdrawn. 11. Remarks: A. Applicant claims the right to withdraw more than the average annual amounts estimated in paragraph 5B above pursuant to Rule 8A of the Statewide Rules, 2 C.C.R. 402-7. B. Applicant will withdraw up to 4 acre-feet per year of the not nontributary Upper Dawson aquifer groundwater requested herein under the plan of augmentation requested herein pursuant to 37-90-137(9)(c), C.R.S. 08CW90 TRACY AND BARBARA LYMAN, 399 Buffalo Bill Cr., Golden, CO 80401.

Denver, Colorado 80202, Telephone: (303) 534-0702. 2. Decree information for which change is sought: Case No. 89CW150, decreed on April 14, 1988, and Case No. 04CW24, decreed on October 28, 2004. The property which is the subject of the decrees is a total of approximately 176 acres located in parts of SE1/4, SW1/4 of S3 and NE1/4, NW1/4 of S10, T8S, R66W of the 6th P.M. as shown on Attachment A hereto. 3. Proposed change: In the original decrees, all of the Upper Dawson aquifer groundwater underlying the Subject Property was decreed and is not available for use through exempt wells on 35 or more acre tracts of land pursuant to Section 37-92-602, C.R.S. (Except for 3 acre-feet per year reserved for this purpose in Case No. 04CW24). A total of 22.4 acre-feet per year is decreed in the Upper Dawson aquifer. By this change, Applicant requests that the total decreed amount be reduced by an additional 13 acre-feet per year, which in addition to the 3 acre-feet per year previously reserved, will allow use of 3.2 acre-feet per year through 5 exempt wells, or 9.09 acre-feet per surface acre. No other parts of the original decree will be changed. 08CW92 ROBERT L. LAND and HOLLI BRADISH-LAND, 9620Trotter Circle, Colorado Springs, CO 80908; phone 719-495-2713. Henry D. Worley, MacDougall, Woldridge & Worley, PC, 530 Communication Circle, Suite 204, Colorado Springs, CO 80905, (719) 520-9288. Application for Adjudication of Denver Basin Ground Water and for Approval of Plan for Augmentation in EL PASO COUNTY Applicants seek the adjudication of the water in the Dawson, Denver, Arapahoe and Laramie-Fox Hills aquifers underlying Lot 17, Block 3, Willow Springs Estates in El Paso County (the �Property�). The Property is located in the East Cherry Creek drainage in the SE1/4 Section 15, T. 11 S., R. 65 W., 6th P.M. in El Paso County. A portion of the Willow Springs Estates plat map showing the location of Lots 17 relative to the SE1/4 corner of Section 15 is attached as Exhibit A. 2. Names of wells and permit, registration, or denial numbers: Permit No. 183858 in the Dawson aquifer. 3. Legal description of wells: Permit No. 183858 is located in theNE1/4 SE1/4 Section 15, T. 11 S., R. 65 W, 6th P.M. 1720 feet from the south section line and 1030 feet from the east section line. Wells in other aquifers may be constructed at any location on the Property. 4. Source: Not nontributary Dawson aquifer; nontributary Denver aquifer; nontributary Arapahoe aquifer, and nontributary Laramie-Fox Hills aquifer. 5.A. Date of appropriation: Not applicable. 5.B. How appropriation was initiated: Not applicable. 5.C. Date water applied to beneficial use: Not applicable. 6. Amount claimed: In addition to the amounts underlying the lots, Applicant claims the amounts to the center of the adjacent county roads. Thus calculated, the acreage of Lot 17 is approximately. The amounts claimed are total amounts available for appropriation, in acre feet; annual amounts equal one percent of the total amounts: Dawson aquifer, 584 AF; Denver aquifer, 422 AF; Arapahoe aquifer, 418 AF; Laramie-Fox Hills aquifer, 179 AF, or more if so indicated by the State Engineer�s Determinations of Fact. The Water Court will be asked to retain jurisdiction over such decree to enter a final determination of the amount of water available for appropriation from each aquifer based on geophysical logs for wells in such aquifers. 7. Proposed use: all beneficial uses. 8. Names and addresses of owners of land on which well is located: Same as Applicants. 9. Remarks: There is one lien against the Property, notice to the lienor is being given as required pursuant to C.R.S. 37-92-302(b). II. APPLICATION FOR APPROVAL OF PLAN FOR AUGMENTATION. 10. Name of structures to be augmented: The existing Dawson aquifer well, currently permitted as 183858. This well will be repermitted after entry of the decree. 11. Previous decrees for water rights to be used for augmentation: None. 12. Historic use: Not applicable. 13. Statement of plan for augmentation: A. Water Demand. Lot 17 will be used for a single family residence and perhaps a guest cottage or detached home office. Uses of water from the Dawson well will most likely be limited to some combination of the following uses: for indoor uses for drinking and sanitary purposes, for livestock watering and for landscape irrigation, hot tubs, swimming pools and landscape uses including irrigation and decorative ponds and fountains. Annual pumping from the Dawson aquifer will be limited to 1.0 acre foot annually

Page 33: APRIL 2008 08CW69 LARIMER COUNTY.APRIL 2008 WATER RESUME PUBLICATION TO: ALL PERSONS INTERESTED IN WATER APPLICATIONS IN WATER DIV. 1 Pursuant to C.R.S. 37-92-302, you are notified

per lot, or 2.0 acre feet total. Indoor water usage for each house is expected to equal 0.30 acre foot per house. A typical hot tub may require approximately 1,400 gallons (0.004 acre foot) per year; a swimming pool, 50,000 gallons (0.15 acre foot) per year; landscape irrigation, annual applications of 2.24 acre feet per acre, or 0.05 acre foot per 1,000 square feet; livestock watering, ten gallons per horse per day, or 0.011 acre foot per horse per year. The decree will limit annual diversions to 1.0 acre foot per lot, but will not to otherwise restrict in the decree which of these uses may occur. Applicants for well permits will designate how they intend to �allocate� their 1.0 acre foot on their well permit applications, based on the above criteria, or based upon criteria agreed to with the State Engineer for any uses not specified above. B. Water Consumption and Return Flows. It is generally accepted that no more than ten percent of water used indoors in residences using non-evaporative septic systems and leach fields for wastewater disposal is consumed, with 90 percent returning to the stream system. Although there will be some return flows from other uses, Applicants will rely only on return flows from septic systems and leach fields for replacement of depletions during pumping. C. Replacement of Stream Depletions During Pumping. Based on computer modeling, stream depletions will occur to tributaries of the South Platte and Arkansas Rivers. Applicants propose to aggregate and replace all stream depletions to East Cherry Creek, a tributary of the South Platte River. Computer modeling indicates that during pumping, stream depletions will gradually increase to a maximum of 19 percent of annual pumping in the 300th year, or 0.19 acre foot based on annual pumping of 1.0 acre feet. Applicant proposes to replace those depletions with septic system return flows, which will equal 0.27 acre foot annually. Thus, septic system return flows will always exceed stream depletions during pumping. D. Replacement of Stream Depletions After Cessation of Pumping. Applicants agree to replace depletions for the shortest of the following periods: the period provided by the Colorado Legislature, should it eventually specify one and if the Applicants obtain water court approval for such modification, the period determined by the State Engineer, should the State Engineer lawfully establish such a period; the period established through rulings of the Colorado Supreme Court in relevant cases; or until Applicants petition the water court and after notice to parties in the case proves that it has complied with all statutory requirements. Applicants will reserve adequate water from the Denver aquifer underlying the Property for the replacement of post-pumping depletions, unless and until such time as any of the above conditions occurs which terminates the obligation to replace post-pumping depletions, or unless Applicants obtain judicial approval of another source of replacement water for post-pumping depletions. It is Applicants� present estimate that based on pumping 1.0 acre feet annually, post-pumping depletions will equal 276 acre feet. If that figure is not revised, Applicants shall reserve 282 acre feet of Denver aquifer water to replace such depletions, and shall make post-pumping replacements annually as required to replace modeled stream depletions. Applicants propose to aggregate all depletions and to replace them to the South Platte drainage. E. Miscellaneous. (1). Applicants will establish restrictive covenants on the Property which: (a) restrict total pumping from the Dawson aquifer to no more than 1.0 acre foot annually per well; (b) require the use of non-evaporative septic systems for wastewater treatment; (c) require that a house be occupied while other water-using activities are occurring on the Property; (d) reserve adequate nontributary water for replacement of post-pumping depletions, which reservation may be voided upon the occurrence of any of the events specified above eliminating the need for such reservation; (e) require annual reporting of the amount pumped from the Dawson well; and (f) which inform the future homeowners that they will be required to construct a well into the Denver aquifer underlying the Property for replacement of post-pumping depletions if the source of augmentation water is unchanged. Restrictive covenants limiting the area to be irrigated or the number of horses, or their water-consuming equivalents, which are allowed on the Property, are unnecessary because the limitation to 1.0 acre foot of total pumping annually per lot, and the requirement that non-evaporative septic systems be used, ensures that return flows will exceed depletions throughout the 300 year pumping period. (2) This application is being filed in both Water
