Water Division 1,Water District 3 Dear Mr. Ogle: • We have reviewed additional information submitted to this office on June 28, 2002 regarding the above referenced proposal to subdivide a 74.63 acre parcel into 9 single family residential lots. In our previous letters dated November 8, 2001 and May 15, 2002 we mentioned that the North Weld County Water District (District) has been proposed as the source of water however no letter of commitment from the District or estimate on the water demand were previously provided. Therefore this time a letter from the District was submitted to this office. Based on the information from the above-mentioned letter the District is able and Intends to serve the proposed 9 lots in Pheasant Crest. The District will supply treated water to the subdivision, charging fees for the water supply on a per tap basis payable prior to the activation of the tap. Based on current records on file in this office, the District currently has an adequate uncommitted water supply to provide the water associated with this project. Pursuant to Section 30-28-136(1)(h)(ll), C.R.S., the State Engineerrs office offers the opinion that the proposed water supply will not cause material injury to existing water rights, and the supply Is expected to be adequate with the District as the water supplier. If you have any question In this matter please contact loan Comaniciu of this office. Sincerely. Kenneth W.
