Re: Permit No. M-1989-029—Longmont Distel Operations
Amendment Application(AM-04)—Completeness Response
Dear Peter:
The original and one copy each of this letter,together with documents referenced herein, are submitted in
response to the Division's March 28,2016 letter which deemed Aggregate Industries' Amendment
Application as referenced above to be incomplete.
Application Form
1. On Item#9 of the Application Form, the Applicant provided four(4)section numbers and
did not select a quarter section or quarter/quarter section selection. The approved permit
application lists the center of the area where the majority of the mining will occur as
Section "8", "SW" Quarter Section and "SE" Quarter/Quarter Section. Please explain this
discrepancy and revise the amendment application form, as needed, to provide the section,
quarter section and quarter/quarter section information.
Item#9 of the Application Form has been revised to correct the location information to list the center of
the area where the majority of mining will(or in this case has)occurred. This is the same as the currently
approved application; i.e., Section 8, SW Quarter Section, SE Quarter/Quarter Section. Page 2 of the
application form with the revised Item#9 information is enclosed.
2. On Item#12 of the Application Form, the Applicant did not select a post mining land use
selection. Please revise the Application Form to indicate a post-mining land use. The site is
currently approved for "recreation"as the post-mining land use.
As stated in Item#16 Description of Amendment on the Application Form and the cover letter under
which the Amendment was submitted,this revision does not propose to change the currently approved
post-mining land use,which is wildlife habitat and recreation. While the Application Form only allows
the operator to select one post-mining land use,wildlife habitat and recreation were stated in Section 6.2
of Exhibit E in AM-003 as the post-mining land use. The same post-mining land use was reiterated in
Section 6.2 of Exhibit E in TR-4. However, in order to satisfy the Division's requirement, Item#12 has
been revised on the Application Form to indicate"recreation"as the post-mining land use. Page 4 of the
Application form with the revised Item#12 is enclosed.

Rule 1.10 -Amendment to a Permit
4. Rule 1.10.1 states, there shall be filed with an application for a 112 Reclamation Permit
amendment...the same content as required for an original application, except that the
Applicant will not be required to submit any information which duplicates applicable
previous submittals.However, the Applicant shall clearly describe where in the original

application, but necessary to render the amendment technically adequate, may be found.
The Applicant did not provide the following exhibits required to deem the amendment
application complete for filing:
This revision proposes to update the reclamation plan to reflect the current landscape of the Longmont
Distel Operations site and to identify remaining areas for post-mining reclamation and areas for flood
restoration following the catastrophic flood event throughout the St.Vrain Creek watershed in September
2013. Exhibit F-1 —Post 2013 Flood Conditions, Restoration, Improvements and Remaining Post-
Mining Reclamation, as submitted with the amendment application on March 25,2016, identifies these
areas.

surface owners of record,as some parcels of land have changed ownership since AM-003. A map
portraying the parcels of land within the permit boundary and those parcels containing land within 200-
feet of the permit boundary is therefore provided in this section. A list of the owners of the parcels
portrayed on the map is also provided in this section.
Rule 6.4.4 -Exhibit D -Mining Plan-All extraction activity was completed prior to this Amendment
Application. Processing and sales of material from an adjacent operation(Permit No.M-1994)is
ongoing. See Exhibit D of AM-003.
Rule 6.4.5 -Exhibit E -Reclamation Plan- Aggregate will continue to reclaim lands affected by its
operations that were not impacted by the September 2013 flood in accordance with the currently approved
reclamation plan as set forth in Exhibit E of Technical Revision TR-04.

Restoration and improvements in flood impacted areas within extents of mining related disturbances of
Longmont Distel will be completed in accordance with City of Longmont's Resilient St.Vrain Project as
submitted in the City's Section 404 permit application to U.S. Army Corps of Engineers(Application No.
NWO-2015-02224-DEN). The work proposed under the 404 permit application is summarized in the
"Sandstone Ranch Reach Improvements Summary"as provided by the City and submitted with the
amendment application on March 25, 2016. In a continuing partnership with Longmont, Aggregate will
perform certain post-flood improvements activities in accordance with the"Resilient St.Vrain Project".
The areas for which Aggregate will provide this work are adjacent to its ongoing processing and
reclamation activities and are identified on Exhibit F-1,which was submitted with the amendment

Rule 6.4.8 -Exhibit H-Wildlife Information—Wildlife information was included in Exhibit H of the
original permit application and subsequent amendment applications. Extraction activities at the site were
completed prior to this amendment application. No new disturbances are proposed with this amendment

4. Jurisdiction. All persons affected by the Application,whether appearing or not,
are parties hereto and are bound by this Ruling and Decree, all notices required by law having
been given and the court having jurisdiction over the subject matter of this proceeding. See §§
37-92-203, 37-92-302, C.R.S.
5. Overview. Longmont adjudicates herein a post-mining augmentation plan for
several parcels collectively known as the Saint Vrain Integrated Reclamation Plan Project(the
"Project"or"Project Property"). Portions of the Project Property have been mined and, at the
time of entry of this Ruling and Decree,portions are still being mined for construction aggregates
by Aggregate Industries—WCR, Inc. ("AI"),pursuant to Permit#M-1989-029 issued by the
Colorado Division of Reclamation, Mining& Safety(a/k/a the "Distel Permit"). A vicinity map
attached as Exhibit A shows the boundary area for the Distel Permit("Mine Permit Area"). The
Project Property previously consisted of several individual parcels that are now owned(with the
exception of two small homestead parcels)by Longmont,jointly owned by Longmont and
Boulder County, and/or under option to Longmont.
Longmont and AI entered into a Second Amended and Restated Mineral Lease(the
"Mineral Lease Agreement")on December 22, 2009, confirming and clarifying certain
responsibilities of the parties with respect to the Project. In accordance with the Mineral Lease
Agreement, the Mine Permit Area is being reclaimed by AI as an open space greenway for the
City, consisting of ponds, streams,wetlands and natural vegetation. Certain of these features will
result in new depletions to the St. Vrain Creek and South Platte River. Longmont is responsible
under the Mineral Lease Agreement for adjudicating and operating the permanent water supplies
associated with the post-mining reclamation of the Mine Permit Area.
This Ruling and Decree adjudicates a plan for augmentation to replace out-of-priority
depletions associated with the Mine Permit Area upon completion of mining. Such out-of-
2
Ruling and Decree
Case No.2009CW271
City of Longmont
priority depletions will be replaced using the historical net stream depletions attributable to
Longmont's interests in the Coffin Davis Ditch, and, as necessary, other sources of water owned
by Longmont that have been decreed for augmentation purposes. The Coffin Davis Ditch diverts
water from Dry Creek, a tributary of the St. Vrain, and has historically been used for irrigation
within the Mine Permit Area, as well as on approximately 36 acres located outside the Mine
Permit Area. A change of water right for the Coffin Davis Ditch is approved herein, in addition
to appropriative rights of exchange to facilitate storage of the changed Coffin Davis Ditch water
in Union Reservoir. This Ruling and Decree also confirms a new surface water right, to be
diverted and used, when available in-priority at any time of the year, to support the open space
purposes of the Project.
II. Change of water right.
6. Description of decreed water right changed herein.
A. Name of structure. Coffin Davis Ditch.
B. Date of original and all relevant subsequent decrees.
i. Original. The original decree for the Coffin Davis Ditch was
entered on June 2, 1882, in Civil Action No. 1327, District Court, Boulder County, Colorado.
ii. Prior change. A decree was entered on August 28, 1981 in Case
No. 81CW06, District Court, Water Division No. 1 (the "1981 Decree"), changing 17.3 c.f.s. of
Priority 31 to the alternate point of diversion described below.
C. Decreed legal description of structure.
i. Original point of diversion. On the south bank of St. Vrain Creek,
approximately 40 rods north of the Southeast corner of the E'/2 SE'/4 of Section 12, Township 2
North, Range 69 West, 6th P.M.,Boulder County, Colorado.
ii. Alternate point. In the SW'/4 of Section 7, Township 2 North,
Range 68 West, 6th P.M., Weld County, Colorado, at a point commencing at the SW corner of
Section 7,whence the West one-quarter corner of said Section 7 bears North 00°00'00"East,
thence North 88°03'49"East 999.07 feet to the point of diversion, as depicted on the attached
Exhibit B.
D. Decreed source of water. St. Vrain Creek; 17.3 c.f.s. changed by the 1981
Decree to Dry Creek, a tributary of St. Vrain Creek, as an alternate point of diversion.
E. Appropriation date. June 1, 1866(Priority 31); June 1, 1871 (Priority 45).
3
Ruling and Decree
Case No.2009CW271
City of Longmont
F. Total amount decreed. The Coffin Davis Ditch was adjudicated in the
amount of 1200 customary inches, for Priorities 31 &45, combined, which amount has been
interpreted by the State Engineer of the State of Colorado as being the equivalent of 27.05 c.f.s.
Of this, the 1981 Decree changed Priority 31, in the amount of 17.3 c.f.s., to the alternate point of
diversion.
G. Decreed uses. Irrigation and stock water.
H. Amount of water changed herein. Longmont owns and/or has a lease-
purchase option for the entire 17.3 c.f.s. interest changed by the 1981 Decree, and is further
changing such 17.3 c.f.s. (the "Longmont Coffin Davis Right") for the purposes described below.
I. Historical use. The historical use of the Longmont Coffin Davis Right is
described in an engineering report dated February 2010,prepared by Deere&Ault Consultants,
Inc. ("Report"). Both the conclusions in the Report and the findings in this Ruling and Decree
relating to historical diversions, consumptive use, and return flows are based on a study period
utilizing the years from 1950 through 1990. The period from 1950 to 1990 was properly used as
the representative study period for the Longmont Coffin Davis Right because mining of the
historically irrigated property began in 1991,at which time the Longmont Coffin Davis Right
was used as a replacement water source for mining operations in accordance with temporary
substitute supply plans approved by the State Engineer pursuant to § 37-90-137(11), C.R.S. The
Report utilizes the same methodologies for quantifying historical use and developing terms and
conditions in the present case as have been approved in numerous prior change decrees in the St.
Vrain Creek basin. The court finds that the study period and methodologies utilized in the
Report provide a consistent, accurate and representative record of the historical beneficial use of
the Longmont Coffin Davis Right. Based on the Report,the court finds that:
i. Irrigated acreage. The Longmont Coffin Davis Right has
historically been used to irrigate an average of 315.5 acres of land generally located in portions of
Sections 7, 8, 17 and 18, Township 2 North, Range 68 West, 6th P.M., Weld County, Colorado,
shown on Exhibit B. Approximately 36 acres of the total 315.5 acres of land historically
irrigated are located outside the Mine Permit Area; these 36 acres are owned by Longmont.
ii. Average annual diversion. The average annual irrigation
diversions for the Longmont Coffin Davis Right during the study period are 951.2 acre-feet.
iii. Historical consumptive use. The average annual consumptive use
attributable to the Longmont Coffin Davis Right during the study period is 523.1 acre-feet.
7. Description of changes adjudicated. In addition to the original decreed uses for
irrigation and stock water, Longmont herein adjudicates alternate uses for the Longmont Coffin
4
Ruling and Decree
Case No.2009CW27 1
City of Longmont
Davis Right to allow for direct use and storage for municipal,reclamation, replacement,
augmentation and exchange purposes, both within and without Longmont's city limits as they
now exist or may exist in the future. "Municipal use"includes all municipal uses, such as,but
not by way of limitation, domestic, commercial,manufacturing, industrial, agricultural,watering
of parks and lawns and gardens, fire protection,generation of electric power and power
generally,recreation, fish and wildlife propagation,wastewater treatment, street sprinlding, and
maintenance of adequate storage reserves. Such purposes shall include the right to use,reuse,
successively use and dispose of the water to extinction.
When using the Longmont Coffin Davis Right for the foregoing alternate uses, Longmont
may store water from the Longmont Coffin Davis Right in Union Reservoir and any enlargement
thereof, located in Sections 29, 30, 31 and 32, Township 3 North, Range 68 West of the 6th P.M.,
and upon parts of Sections 5 and 6, Township 2 North, Range 68 West of the 6th P.M., Weld
County, Colorado. Such storage will occur pursuant to the exchanges described in Paragraph 13,
below, and/or by re-diversion at Longmont's Pump Station No. 2, a proposed pump and pipeline
to carry water from St. Vrain Creek to Union Reservoir, with an inlet to be located at a point on
the west bank of St. Vrain Creek approximately 190 feet North and 2700 feet East of the
Southwest corner of Section 4, Township 2 North, Range 68 West of the 6th P.M., Weld County,
Colorado, and depicted on Exhibit A.
8. Terms and conditions of change. So long as the terms and protective conditions
specified hereinafter are followed, the court finds that the Longmont Coffin Davis Right may be
changed, as described above,without material injury to the vested water rights and decreed
conditional water rights of others, and without enlargement of the Longmont Coffin Davis Right:
A. Diversions. Diversions of the Longmont Coffin Davis Right for the
alternate uses described above shall continue to be made at the Coffin Davis headgate on Dry
Creek, when in priority, at a maximum rate of 17.3 c.f.s. A portion of the Longmont Coffin
Davis Right may continue to be used for the original decreed irrigation purpose on the 36
historically irrigated acres located outside of the Mine Permit Area, with proportionate reductions
in the amount available to Longmont for the alternate uses, as described in Paragraph 8.J., below.
Prior to April 15th of each year, Longmont shall specify to the Division Engineer and Water
Commissioner, in writing,the percentage of the Longmont Coffin Davis Right to be used that
year for the original decreed irrigation use, if any, and the percentage to be used for the alternate
uses. Following such annual designation, the percentage designated for irrigation use may not be
changed to the alternate uses for that year, nor shall the percentage designated for the alternate
uses be changed to irrigation use for that year. Diversions of the Longmont Coffin Davis Right
for the alternate uses shall then be limited, for that year, to a rate equal to 17.3 c.f.s. times the
percentage of the Longmont Coffin Davis Right being used for the alternate uses. For example,
if 11.5 percent of the Right is being used for irrigation of the 36 historically irrigated acres
located outside of the Mine Permit Area, then the flow rate limit for the alternate uses would be
5
Ruling and Decree
Case No.2009CW271
City of Longmont
15.3 c.f.s. Combined diversions of the Longmont Coffin Davis Right for both the original
decreed uses and the alternate uses shall not exceed 17.3 c.f.s.
B. Since at least entry of the 1981 Decree, the 17.3 c.f.s. of Priority 31 has
been used to irrigate all of the land historically irrigated under the Coffin Davis Ditch.
C. Measurement. Longmont(or AI pursuant to the Mineral Lease
Agreement) shall install a measuring and recording device in the Coffin Davis Ditch to measure
the daily diversions of the Longmont Coffin Davis Right. The measuring device shall be subject
to the approval and conform to the current standards of the Division Engineer and will include a
continuous recorder to generate a record of daily diversions of the Longmont Coffin Davis Right.
Longmont shall measure and account for all water diverted and used under the Coffin Davis
Right on a daily basis and shall submit monthly accounting to the Division Engineer and Water
Commissioner on forms acceptable to them. An augmentation station will also be constructed(at
a location to be determined by Longmont)to deliver water diverted pursuant to the Longmont
Coffin Davis Right to the Mine Permit Area and/or back to Dry Creek and St. Vrain Creek. A
measuring device and continuous recorder will be installed as part of the augmentation station to
measure all such deliveries. The measuring device for diversions and the augmentation structure
may be constructed as a single structure,provided such structure is approved by the Division
Engineer.
D. Timing of diversions. Diversions of the Longmont Coffin Davis Right for
the alternate uses described above shall be limited to the season of April 15t through October 31st
of each year. Should any use for the original irrigation purposes be made prior to Longmont's
designation on April 15th, it will be based on the prior year's percentage designation.
E. Net stream depletion credits. Longmont will generate fully-consumable
net stream depletion credits on a daily basis when diverting water pursuant to the Longmont
Coffin Davis Right for the alternate uses described above. When the downstream call is junior to
December 30, 2009, and no return flow replacements are required as set forth in Paragraph 8.H.,
below, then net stream depletion credits shall be equal to measured diversions. When the
downstream call is senior to December 30, 2009,net stream depletion credits will be calculated
by multiplying measured diversions by the appropriate monthly depletion factor in Table 1,
below. The calculated net stream depletion credits may be delivered, via the augmentation
station and at Longmont's sole discretion, either directly to the Mine Permit Area or to Dry Creek
and St. Vrain Creek(or a combination thereof). All net stream depletion credits delivered
directly to the Mine Permit Area will be deemed fully used for replacement of out-of-priority
depletions pursuant to the plan for augmentation approved herein, and Longmont shall not claim
any credit for any Longmont Coffin Davis Right net stream depletion credits so delivered to the
Mine Permit Area in excess of the augmentation replacement requirements. Net stream depletion
credits delivered to Dry Creek and St. Vrain Creek, and not otherwise directly used by Longmont

as a replacement source in the augmentation plan approved herein, may be stored in Union
Reservoir pursuant to the exchanges described in Paragraph 13,below, may be re-diverted at the
St. Vrain Pump Station No. 2, or may be used for other decreed purposes. Such fully-
consumable net stream depletion credits may be reused, successively used, and disposed of to
extinction.

F. Volumetric limits—monthly and annual. In order to assure that future
diversions of the Longmont Coffin Davis Right do not exceed historical maximum amounts, total
diversions (for both the alternate uses and any continued irrigation use) shall be limited to the
maximum monthly and annual volumes set forth in Table 2.

G. Volumetric limits—rolling average. To further prevent an expansion of
use, total diversions(for both the alternate uses and any continued irrigation use) of the
Longmont Coffin Davis Right shall be limited to a 40-year rolling average volumetric limit of
37,768 acre-feet. To calculate the amount available for diversion under this limitation, the total
amount of diversions pursuant to the Longmont Coffin Davis Right from the immediately
preceding 39-years shall be subtracted from the 40-year rolling average volumetric limit(37,768
acre-feet). For purposes of operating the rolling 40-year volumetric limit during the first 39 years
7
Ruling and Decree
Case No.2009CW271
City of Longmont
following the entry of a decree in this case,the preceding 39 years shall be the last 39 years
covered by the study period(1952-1990)as set forth in the attached Exhibit C. In each
subsequent year, one less year's diversions (starting with 1952 and proceeding chronologically)
will be utilized from Exhibit C for inclusion in the rolling 40-year limit and one more year of
actual diversions under the change decree(the immediately preceding year) shall be added.
Following 39 years of Longmont's operation of the changed water right, and every year
thereafter, Longmont's actual diversions for the preceding 39 years shall be used to determine the
diversion limit in each year based on the 40-year rolling average volumetric limit.
H. Return flow replacements. When diverting the Longmont Coffin Davis
Right for the alternate uses, Longmont shall maintain historical irrigation return flows associated
with the Longmont Coffin Davis Right. Longmont shall make its required historical irrigation
return flow replacements to Dry Creek and/or St. Vrain Creek at or above a point on the St. Vrain
Creek where the St. Vrain Creek crosses under Colorado State Highway 119, which crossing is
depicted on Exhibit F attached hereto. Longmont shall deliver water to satisfy its return flow
obligations under this decree when there is a valid downstream call, including decreed
exchanges, senior to December 30,2009. Longmont shall replace its return flow obligations
upstream of the senior downstream calling right including decreed exchanges.
I. Calculation of return flow replacements.
i. Irrigation season. During April through October, Longmont's
return flow replacement obligations shall be calculated daily by multiplying the measured
diversions of the Longmont Coffin Davis Right for the alternate uses by the appropriate monthly
return flow factor in Table 3, below. Longmont Coffin Davis Right diversions calculated as
return flow water shall then be returned to Dry Creek and delivered to St. Vrain Creek at their
confluence,to satisfy return flow replacement obligations.
ii. Non-irrigation season. During November through March,
Longmont's monthly return flow replacement obligations shall be calculated by multiplying the
total measured diversions of the Longmont Coffin Davis Right for the alternate uses during the
preceding April through October by the appropriate monthly return flow factor shown in Table 3,
below.

required herein shall be made using the Longmont Coffin Davis Right water made available to
Longmont pursuant to the changes adjudicated in this Ruling and Decree(via deliveries to Dry
Creek or the Mine Permit Area through the augmentation station)and/or using any other water
available to Longmont that is fully-consumable or is otherwise decreed for such purposes,
including without limitation the following:
i. Longmont's right to transmountain water derived from the United
States Department of the Interior, Bureau of Reclamation, Colorado-Big Thompson Project,via
the St. Vrain Supply Canal and the Southern Pipeline. The point of delivery to St. Vrain Creek
of said Supply Canal is located in the NWt/4 NWt/4 of Section 20, Township 3 North,Range 70
West of the 6th P.M., Boulder County, Colorado. Said Supply Canal has a capacity of 575 c.f.s.
These rights will include Longmont's share of water rights resulting from the Windy Gap Project
(a/k/a Six Cities Transmountain Diversion). The Windy Gap Project is a transmountain water
diversion project that delivers water from the Colorado River Basin to the South Platte River
Basin. Decrees for the Windy Gap Project include, without limitation, the decrees entered on

viii. Replacement, augmentation and exchange water available from
Longmont's interests in the Rough&Ready Ditch and the Oligarchy Ditch pursuant to decrees
entered by the District Court in and for Water Division No. 1 on or about November 20, 2008 in
Case Nos. 00CW240 and 241.
ix. Replacement, augmentation and exchange water made available to
Longmont by decrees to be entered by the District Court in and for Water Division No. 1
pursuant to change applications previously filed by Longmont involving Longmont's interests in
the following ditches: James Ditch(Case No. 00CW239) and Peck Lateral Ditch (Case No.
07CW330),both diverting from St. Vrain Creek.
x. Replacement, augmentation and exchange water to be made
available from Longmont's interests in the following reservoirs diverting from St. Vrain Creek
pursuant to decrees entered by the District Court in and for Water Division No. 1 in the following
cases: Case No. 87CW235, Oligarchy Reservoir No. 1; Case No. 87CW231, Pleasant Valley
Reservoir; Case No. 87CW222, Union Reservoir; Case No. 87CW253, McIntosh Reservoir;
Case No. 87CW232,McCall Reservoir; and Case No. 87CW233, Clover Basin Reservoir.
Replacement, augmentation and exchange water made available to Longmont pursuant to
the decrees and from the sources described in this Paragraph 8.J. shall include reusable municipal
return flows resulting from such sources and uses. The point of discharge of Longmont's
wastewater treatment plant effluent is presently located in the SWt/4 NEt/4 of Section 11,
Township 2 North, Range 69 West of the 6th P.M.,Boulder County, Colorado.
K. Dry-up. Longmont shall remove land from irrigation by the Longmont
Coffin Davis Right in order to use the water right for the alternate uses. The percentage of the
Longmont Coffin Davis Right available for the alternate uses shall be determined using the
following equation:
Alternate Use Percentage=(315.5 acres- Irrigated Acres) 1315.5 acres x 100
For example, if Longmont continues to irrigate the two historically irrigated fields located
outside the Mine Permit Area, as shown on Exhibit B, with an area totaling approximately 36
acres, then Longmont may use approximately 88.5 percent of the Longmont Coffin Davis Right
for the alternate uses. Should Longmont elect to utilize a portion of the Longmont Coffin Davis
Right for irrigation within Mine Permit Area the acreage to be irrigated would be included in the
foregoing calculation, thereby reducing the amount that could be used for the alternate uses.
L. Revegetation. The lands historically irrigated by the Longmont Coffin
Davis Right that have been mined and are not covered by ponds and wetlands upon completion
11
Ruling and Decree
Case No.2009CW271
City of Longmont
of reclamation of the Mine Permit Area will be planted with natural vegetation. The Project
Property will be managed, in perpetuity,by Longmont's Public Works and Natural Resources
Department as a public open space/greenway, thereby ensuring that such natural vegetation is
established and maintained. Longmont's incorporation of these lands into its parks and open
space system is therefore adequate to satisfy the revegetation and noxious weed management
provisions of§ 37-92-305(4.5)(a), C.R.S.
M. Accounting. Longmont shall keep accurate daily records of Coffin Davis
Ditch headgate diversions, augmentation station deliveries,return flow obligations,return flow
payments, and available net stream depletion credits in order to assist in the administration of the
changes approved herein for the Longmont Coffin Davis Right. Draft accounting forms are
attached hereto as Exhibit D; these forms may be integrated with Longmont's other accounting
forms already developed and used by Longmont. The accounting forms are not decreed herein
and may be modified from time to time upon approval of the Division Engineer. Copies of the
accounting shall be submitted to the Water Commissioner on a monthly basis, and an annual
report shall be submitted to the Division Engineer by November 15th, or such other date specified
by the Water Commissioner.
III. Approval of plan for augmentation.
9. Structures and water right to be augmented. The following described structures
(the"Project Reclamation Features") are included in the plan for augmentation described herein,
and a new water right is also hereby adjudicated for said structures:
A. Structures. The Project Reclamation Features include all new ponds,
streams and other reclamation features within the"Augmentation Area" of the Mine Permit Area
depicted on the attached Exhibit E, that, following the completion of mining, cause new
evaporative depletions and new consumptive use from wetlands established as the result of
reclamation. The foregoing excludes the "Peschel Pond"that was created due to mining
operations occurring prior to December 31, 1980,with a surface area of approximately 7.2 acres,
located in the SEl of Section 7, Township 2 North, Range 68 West, 6th P.M., Weld County,
Colorado, as depicted on Exhibit E.
B. Location. The Mine Permit Area consists of approximately 712 acres
located in Sections 7, 8, 9, 17, & 18, Township 2 North, Range 68 West, 6th P.M.,Weld County,
Colorado, and is depicted on Exhibits A&E.
C. Source. Water tributary to St. Vrain Creek and Dry Creek, a tributary of
St. Vrain Creek.
D. Date of appropriation. October 26, 2004, on which date there was a
concurrence of intent to appropriate and overt acts in furtherance of such intent, including,
12
Ruling and Decree
Case No.2009CW271
City of Longmont
without limitation,the Longmont City Council's ordinance(O-2004-79) approving the First
Amended and Restated Mineral Lease Agreement with AI.
E. Amount. 2 c.f.s., conditional.
F. Use. Reclamation, recreation, fish and wildlife propagation, and wetland
propagation.
G. Well Permit. The Project Reclamation Features are currently permitted, in
the name of Al and in accordance with temporary substitute supply plans pursuant to §37-90-
137(11), C.R.S., as No. 67433-F. Longmont shall apply for a new well permit in accordance
with this Ruling and Decree, and the State Engineer shall issue the requested permit pursuant to
the terms and conditions of this Ruling and Decree.
10. Water rights to be used for augmentation.
A. Longmont Coffin Davis Right. The Longmont Coffin Davis Right, as
changed by this Ruling and Decree, and more fully described in Paragraphs 6 through 8 above.
B. Other Longmont water rights. All additional sources of water available to
Longmont that are fully-consumable or are otherwise decreed for such purposes, including,
without limitation, those sources described in Paragraph B.J., above.
11. Operation of plan for augmentation. At all times when the Project Reclamation
Features are out-of-priority Longmont shall replace the net depletions associated with the Project
Reclamation Features using the net stream depletion credits available from the Longmont Coffin
Davis Right, as changed in this Ruling and Decree, and/or the additional sources of augmentation
water available to Longmont identified in Paragraph 10.B., above.
A. Depletions. The total annual depletions from the Project Reclamation
Features are estimated to be 318.25 acre-feet, based on a projected 64.0 acres of free water
surface area(ponds and streams) and 63.7 acres of new wetlands area to be established upon full
implementation of the post-mining reclamation plan for the Mine Permit Area. The foregoing is
only an estimate, and Longmont shall replace the actual out-of-priority depletions from the
Project Reclamation Features, to be calculated as follows:
i. Depletion rate per acre -Water surface evaporation. The net
surface evaporation rate per acre of ponds and streams established by the Project is 2.523 acre-
feet annually, distributed on a monthly basis as shown in Column 2, "Water Surface Evap."of
Table 4, below. These monthly rates may be reduced proportionately during months, or portions
of months, in which ice cover occurs. The foregoing rate is calculated using a methodology
consistent with both the Colorado Division of Water Resources' General Guidelines for
13
Ruling and Decree
Case No.2009CW27 1
City of Longmont
Substitute Water Supply Plans for Sand and Gravel Pits and § 37-92-305(12)(a), C.R.S.
ii. Depletion rate per acre- Wetlands. The net per acre rate of
increased depletions attributable to new wetlands area established by the Project shall be
determined based on the location of the wetlands within one of four zones located within the
Mine Permit Area as shown on the attached Exhibit E, and ranges from 2.302 to 2.615 acre-feet
per acre annually. Table 4 shows the monthly per acre augmentation replacement requirements
for increased depletions of water by new wetlands within the reclaimed Mine Permit Area.

iii. Determination of area. Longmont shall survey the(post December
31, 1980) free water surface area established by reclamation of the Mine Permit Area and shall
bi-annually survey the total post-mining area of new wetlands. For purposes of this Ruling and
Decree, "wetlands" shall be defined in accordance with the criteria contained in the U.S. Army
Corps of Engineers Wetlands Delineation Manual (USACE 1987), as it may be amended or
updated at the time of such survey. The surveyed acreage shall be recorded on Longmont's
accounting forms. Bi-annual wetlands area surveys of the Mine Permit Area shall continue after
mining ceases until the percentage change from the prior survey is less than 5%.
iv. Calculation of total depletions. Longmont's total depletions for the
Project Reclamation Features shall be calculated by multiplying the surveyed water surface and
wetlands area acreages by the per-acre unit depletion rates in Table 4, which shall be converted
14
Ruling and Decree
Case No.2009CW271
City of Longmont
to daily depletion rates on Longmont's accounting forms. Depletions associated with the Project
Reclamation Features are instantaneous to St. Vrain Creek in the NW'/4 of Section 9, Township 2
North,Range 68 West of the 6th P.M., Weld County, Colorado.
B. Replacements.
i. Irrigation season. During April through October,when the Project
Reclamation Features are out-of-priority, Longmont shall replace the depletions by: (1)
delivering the Longmont Coffin Davis Right's net stream depletion credits (calculated pursuant
to Paragraph 8.E., above) directly to the Mine Permit Area, (2)by delivering the Longmont
Coffin Davis Right's net stream depletion credits to Dry Creek and St. Vrain Creek via the
augmentation station described above, or(3)by providing augmentation water from Longmont's
other available fully-consumable sources, delivered to St. Vrain Creek downstream of the Dry
Creek confluence and above the next downstream calling water right. When Longmont replaces
the depletions by delivering the Longmont Coffin Davis Right's net stream depletion credits to
the Mine Permit Area, the evaporative and wetlands consumptive use depletions will be replaced
instantaneously with all or a portion of those credits, as with deliveries to the stream.
ii. Non-irrigation season. During November through March,when
the Project Reclamation Features are out-of-priority,Longmont shall replace the depletions by
delivering water to St. Vrain Creek, at or above the downstream calling water right, from the
sources described in Paragraph 10, above,which may include, at Longmont's discretion,
Longmont Coffin Davis Right water stored in Union Reservoir pursuant to this Ruling and
Decree.
C. Measurement and accounting. Longmont shall install measuring devices
acceptable to the Division Engineer as necessary to administer the plan for augmentation
approved herein. Longmont shall keep accurate daily records of all calls, calculations of
depletions, and amounts and sources of replacements made under this plan for augmentation.
Draft accounting forms are attached hereto as Exhibit D; these forms may be integrated with
Longmont's other accounting forms already developed and used by Longmont. The accounting
forms are not decreed herein and may be modified from time to time upon approval of the
Division Engineer. Copies of the accounting shall be submitted to the Water Commissioner on a
monthly basis, and an annual report shall be submitted to the Division Engineer by November
15th, or such other date specified by the Water Commissioner, summarizing the diversions,
depletions and replacements made pursuant to this Ruling and Decree.
D. Adequate replacement water. The court finds that the replacement sources
described in Paragraph 10, above, including,without limitation, the historical net stream
depletions from the Longmont Coffin Davis Right,provides Longmont with a firm supply of
augmentation water sufficient to make the replacements required under the plan for augmentation
approved herein. The water to be provided for augmentation is of a quality and quantity so as to
15
Ruling and Decree
Case No.2009CW271
City of Longmont
meet the requirements for which the water has been used by senior downstream appropriators,
and therefore meet the requirements of§ 37-92-305(5),C.R.S.
E. Curtailment by State Engineer. Pursuant to §37-92-305(8), C.R.S.,the
State Engineer shall curtail all out-of-priority diversions,the depletions from which are not so
replaced as to prevent injury to vested water rights.
12. No injury. The changes of water right and plan for augmentation adjudicated
herein will not result in injury to any vested water rights or decreed conditional water rights,
provided that the use of the water right changed herein and the operation of the subject plan for
augmentation are made in compliance with the terms and conditions described herein. See § 37-
92-305(3), C.R.S.

additional terms and conditions:
21. Pump Station No. 2 stipulations.
18
Ruling and Decree
Case No.2009CW27 1
City of Longmont
A. CDOT. Pursuant to an agreement between Longmont and the Colorado
Department of Transportation("CDOT"), the Pump Station No. 2 (described in Paragraph 7,
above), or any other structure proposed to be used by Longmont,will be located on lands owned
by CDOT only after all necessary approvals are obtained from CDOT. In the event Longmont
needs to access CDOT's right of way for any purpose, Longmont shall obtain a utility permit(or
any other required instrument)from CDOT.
B. Oliver/JCK Gravel &CPW Stipulations. The inlet of Longmont's
proposed Pump Station No. 2 is described as being located at a point on the west bank of St.
Vrain Creek approximately 190 feet North and 2700 feet East of the Southwest corner of Section
4, Township 2 North, Range 68 West of the 6th P.M.,Weld County, Colorado. This point is
depicted on Exhibit F,on land presently owned by JCK Gravel, Inc. Longmont shall not
construct the inlet of the proposed Pump Station No. 2 on land owned by JCK Gravel, Inc. (the
"JCK Parcel"), or its successors and assigns, unless and until Longmont has obtained a lawful
right to enter the JCK Parcel for that purpose. Longmont recognizes that the CPW has a
remainder interest in the JCK Parcel pursuant to an August 6,2002 Donation Agreement. The
SH 119 right of way, also shown on Exhibit F within the 200 foot radius of the above-described
point, is a potential alternate site for the inlet of the proposed Pump Station No. 2. Because the
JCK Parcel is meant to be a bird sanctuary, it is the preference of Longmont, CPW and JCK that
the Pump Station No. 2 be constructed on SH 119 right of way. Longmont agrees to make a
good faith effort to construct the inlet of the proposed Pump Station No. 2 on the SH 119 right of
way prior to seeking a lawful right to construct the inlet of the proposed Pump Station No. 2 on
the JCK Parcel. If Longmont is unable to locate Pump Station No. 2 within the SH 119 right of
way and is able to gain a lawful right to construct the inlet of Pump Station No. 2 on the JCK
Parcel,then Longmont shall locate Pump Station No. 2 as close as possible to SH 119 and shall
construct Pump Station No. 2 between August 15 and November 15 so as to minimize impacts to
eagle roosting and nesting. Longmont shall also provide for native revegetation in the area that
was disturbed by construction and installation of Pump Station No. 2. The native vegetation shall
be determined after consultation with staff at St Vrain State Park.
22. Northern stipulation. Pursuant to the Stipulation between Longmont and the
Northern Colorado Water Conservancy District("Northern Water"), dated February 25, 2010,
and approved by the court by order dated March 1, 2010,this Ruling and Decree is subject to and
shall not affect in any way the right of Northern Water to regulate any use of Colorado-Big
Thompson("C-BT")Project water or C-BT Project facilities by Longmont pursuant to and in
accordance with applicable law, the provisions of the July 5, 1938 contract between the United
States and Northern Water for construction of the C-BT Project, the allotment contracts between
Northern Water and Longmont, and the rules regulations and policies of Northern Water, as may
be amended from time to time. The rules, regulations and policies of Northern Water presently
prohibit use of C-BT Project water to replace historical return flows or depletions under an
adjudicated change of water right or augmentation plan decree. Longmont shall not use C-BT
Project water as a source to replace historical return flows or depletions pursuant to the change of
19
Ruling and Decree
Case No.2009CW27 1
City of Longmont
water rights or plan for augmentation decreed in this matter,unless, prior to such use, Longmont
notifies and obtains written approval from Northern Water specifically allowing such use.

a notice with the court and the parties in this case that reclamation of the Mine Permit Area has
been completed. In the event that Longmont or any party petitions the court for reconsideration,
the court shall order appropriate notice to be given to all the parties hereto. Such petition shall be
verified,made in good faith, and shall set forth with particularity the factual basis upon which the
requested reconsideration is premised. The party lodging the petition shall have the burden of
going forward to establish the prima facie facts alleged in the petition. If a prima facie case of
21
Ruling and Decree
Case No.2009CW271
City of Longmont
injury to vested water rights is established, Longmont shall thereupon bear the burden of proof to
show (a)that any modification sought by any other party is not required to avoid injury to other
appropriators, or(b) that any term or condition proposed by Longmont in response to the petition
does avoid injury to other appropriators. The retention of jurisdiction period shall be limited to
claims of injury based upon failure to implement the protective terms and conditions described
herein or failure of such protective terms and conditions to sufficiently protect against injury.
37. Diligence. The conditional water rights decreed herein are continued in full force
and effect until February 28, 2019. If the Applicant desires to maintain the conditional water
rights thereafter, it shall file an application for finding of reasonable diligence on or before that
date, or make a showing on or before then that the conditional water rights have become absolute
water rights by reason of the completion of the appropriations.
38. Integrated project. The conditional water rights decreed herein for the Project
Reclamation Features, Coffin Davis-St. Vrain Creek Pump Station No. 1 Exchange, Coffin
Davis-Union Reservoir Exchange and Coffin Davis Ditch, Sherwood Enlargement are part of the
integrated water supply for Longmont's Saint Vrain Integrated Reclamation Plan Project;
therefore, work on any one feature of the Project shall be considered in fording that reasonable
diligence has been shown in the development of all water rights for all features of the entire
Project.
39. Filing of Decree. This Ruling and Decree shall be filed with the Water Clerk and
a copy filed with the State Engineer and Division Engineer.

Reclamation Costs
The Division currently holds a financial warranty for reclamation in the amount of$1,483,800. As
there are no proposed changes to reclamation of the post-mining areas to be reclaimed by
Aggregate, the current bond amount is expected to be sufficient to cover Aggregate's remaining
reclamation obligation.
