First and foremost we are concerned about the huge amount of water that will be coming out of the facility and the effect that will have on the water table in the area.We are also immensely concerned about the huge amount of truck traffic it will bring to an area that is already being over-run with this type of traffic.Weld County Road 390 is already in a state of deterioration and we cannot imagine what 300 trucks per day going in an out of this site will do to this road, not to mention adding to the dust problem that is already out of control.We should also note that Dietzler Water Resources has not contacted the Town of Grover to discuss any of these issues as of this date. Lastly,would like it noted that we will not allow any truck traffic through Grover on our main street(Chatoga Avenue)all trucks should follow the designated truck route using road 122/Wilson Avenue on the north side of Grover.

Water Division 8, Water District 1, 64 Dear Ms. Ogle: • This referral does not appear to qualify as a "subdivision" as defined in Section 30-28- 101(10)(a), C.R.S. Therefore, pursuant to the State Engineer's March 4, 2005 memorandum to county planning directors, this office will only perform a cursory review of the referral information and provide informal comments. The comments do not address the adequacy of the water supply plan for this project or the ability of the water supply plan to satisfy any County regulations or requirements. In addition, the comments provided herein cannot be used to guarantee a viable water supply plan or infrastructure, the issuance of a well permit, or physical availability of water. According to the submitted information, the proposal is for a groundwater load out facility within the Agricultural Zone District. The proposed facility would supply groundwater to oil and gas companies, additionally the facility would have the ability to supply groundwater for municipal, industrial, and irrigation uses. According to our records, well permit nos. 74874-F and 74877-F are located on the subject 80-acre parcel. Well permit no. 56473-F is also located on the parcel and is approved for withdrawal from the alluvium for watering of livestock. Per the submittal, the applicant currently utilizes the property for ranching operations. Permit no. 56473-F does not appear to be a source of water for the proposed project. The approved well locations for well permit nos. 74876-F and 74878-F are in the SW1/4 of the NW1/4 of Section 29, T10N, R60W of the 6th P.M. Furthermore, this office has received construction reports for well permit no. 74876-F in the Laramie-Fox Hills aquifer and for well permit no. 74877-F (located on the 80-acre parcel) in the Upper Laramie aquifer. According to the submittal, new wells will be constructed pursuant to well permit no. 74874-F (located on the 80- acre parcel) in the Laramie-Fox Hills aquifer and pursuant to well permit no. 74878-F in the Upper Laramie aquifer. • Office of the State Engineer 1313 Sherman Street, Suite 818•Denver, CO 80203 •Phone:303-866-3581 •Fax:303-866-2223 http://water.state.co.us • DIVISION OF WATER RESOURCES Name: Kim Ogle Date: June 15, 2011 • Page 2 of 2 The approved uses for all four well permit nos. 74874-F, 74876-F, 74877-F, and 74878-F are limited to irrigation, industrial and commercial, livestock, fish rearing, recreation, and pond filling on 3840 acres of overlying land, in portions of Sections 17, 18, 19, 20, 28, 29, and 30, T1ON, R6OW and portions of Section 13 and 24, T1ON, R61W of the 6`h P.M.; and additionally in all of Weld County for industrial and commercial use via truck hauling. The proposed uses to supply groundwater to oil and gas companies, industrial, and irrigation are consistent with approved uses, however, municipal use is not an approved use.
