SWY NWY< Section 27, T5N, R65W Water Division 1, Water District 2 Dear Ms. Aungst: 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 and March 11, 2011 memorandums 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. The application seeks a site specific development plan and use by special review permit for the storage and parking of agricultural and commercial equipment on a 1.89-acre parcel. The site will also be used for parking of employee vehicles during work hours. On average, 15 to 20 people will use this site, but will not be working on site. There will be a portable restroom on site available to employees. The subject property has water service available via two taps from the Central Weld County Water District ("District")). The District most recently provided this office with information about their water supplies in September of 2012. Based on this information, the District is considered to have adequate water supply. The site plan depicts a"catch pan" on the site to collect storm water runoff. Any stormwater runoff intercepted by this feature. that is not diverted or captured in priority, must be released to the stream system within 72 hours. Otherwise, the applicant will be required to make replacements for evaporation. Information available in this office indicates that the wells with permit nos. 124018-A and 124019 may be located on the subject property. The well with permit no. 124018-A is permitted to be used for the irrigation of not more than one acre of home gardens and lawns and the watering of livestock on a farm or ranch. The well with permit no. 124019 is permitted for domestic use, including the irrigation of not over one acre of home gardens and lawns. These wells may continue to be used in accordance with their permitted terms and conditions but may not be used as a water supply for the proposed business. Should you or the applicant have any questions, please contact Sarah Brucker of this office.
