Structures: Baldwin Pond and the Mormon Mesa Ditch, Baldwin Diversion Enlargement (“Baldwin Diversion”). Decree: May 30, 2012, Case No. 11CW141, Water Div. No. 5, District Court, Colorado. Subsequent Decrees: None.

See Exhibit 1. Source: Baldwin Pond derives its source of supply from Cottonwood Creek, tributary to Plateau Creek, tributary to the Colorado River. App. Date: October 19, 2010. Amount:1.62 acre-feet, together with the right to refill the pond when water is available in priority. The amount for refill shall not exceed 15.6 acre feet per year.

See Exhibit 1. Claim to Make Water Rights Partially Absolute: Baldwin Pond: Baldwin Pond filled on May 1 through 3, 2012, when there was no call on Cottonwood Creek. See the CDSS call records. Accordingly, the full amount of the Baldwin Pond water right should be made absolute for all the decreed uses in accordance with C.R.S. § 37-92-301(4)(e) and C.R.S. § 37-92-103(4)(a). Furthermore, during this diligence period the Applicants did stock the pond with fish and have used the water from the Baldwin Pond for irrigation. The Applicants do not have accurate accounting with which to document the refill of the Baldwin Pond subsequent to its first fill. Therefore, the Applicants do not claim any portion of the right to refill the Baldwin Pond up to 15.6 acre feet per year as absolute at this time. Baldwin Diversion: The Baldwin Diversion is decreed absolute to fill Baldwin Pond for the subsequent uses of recreation, aesthetics, fire protection and wildlife watering; and conditional to fill Baldwin Pond for the subsequent uses of irrigation and piscatorial. It is also conditional to refill Baldwin Pond for the subsequent uses of recreation, aesthetics, fire protection and wildlife watering, irrigation, and piscatorial. Because the Baldwin Diversion was used to fill the Baldwin Pond, which uses should all be made absolute in accordance with C.R.S. § 37-92-301(4)(e) and C.R.S. § 37-92-103(4)(a) and because the pond has been stocked with fish and used for irrigation, the Baldwin Diversion should be made absolute in the full amount for all decreed uses except for the refill right. The Application contains a detailed outline of what has been done toward completion of the appropriation of the conditional water rights described above. Names and addresses of owners of the land upon which new diversion or storage structure or modification to any existing diversion or storage structure is or will be constructed or upon which water is or will be stored, including any modification to the existing storage pool: Baldwin Pond is located on property owned by the Applicants.

Applicants request that the Court enter an order and decree finding that the Applicants have made the Baldwin Pond and Baldwin Diversion partially absolute as described above and finding that the Applicants been reasonably diligent in the development of the conditional water rights described above and continuing the water rights in full force and effect to the extent the same are not made absolute.

Detailed outline of work done toward completion of Project and application of water to beneficial use: 7.1. Work in connection with the Project, and all its decreed diversions, has been prosecuted with reasonable diligence. The existing West Slope features have been operated to divert and convey water to the Project’s East Slope reservoirs and facilities and thereafter for decreed beneficial uses. Southeastern has contractual agreements for the planning, construction, operation, maintenance and repayment of the Project with Reclamation. Consequently, Reclamation’s acts and expenditures evidence diligence with respect to Southeastern’s conditional water rights. 7.2. Project activities include operation, maintenance and improvement of the collection system and storage system. Operation of the Project is subject to the terms of Water Division 5 and Division 2 Decrees, the Project’s Operating Principles, and the Congressional authorizing legislation. Current diversions and recordkeeping are integral to future development of the Project’s conditional rights. Operation of, diversions by, and development of the collection system can be affected by storage space in the Project reservoirs in Water Division 2. 7.3. Throughout the diligence period, the Boustead Tunnel and the existing West Slope diversion features were in operation and maintenance status. From June 2012 through May 2018, Southeastern expended in excess of $8 million on East Slope and West Slope Project operation and maintenance costs. Reclamation was also allotted in excess of $69 million for Project water and energy management and development,

MAY 2018 RESUME WATER DIVISION 5 PAGE 11 land management and development, facility operations, and facility maintenance and rehabilitation costs from 2012-2018, as explained in Reclamation’s annual Budget Justification reports. 7.4. Reclamation began or continued several operation, maintenance, and repair activities on West Slope Project features during the diligence period, in accordance with its contract with Southeastern. Gauges that were previously installed at Lime and Last Chance Creeks have been operated and maintained in connection with development of diversions at those points, and Reclamation has been gathering information from the gauges. A study on repairs to the Cunningham Tunnel invert where erosion has created voids in the flowline of the tunnel was performed in 2015. Replacement of the existing microwave repeater radios at two communication sites began and continues. Cleaning and/or re-drilling the Northside/Southside Collection System tunnel weep holes in order to prevent the buildup of hydrostatic pressure around the tunnels began in 2012 and continues. 7.5. During the diligence period from June 2012 through May 2018, Southeastern expended in excess of $2 million for engineering consultation and legal fees and costs, primarily to protect Southeastern’s West and East Slope water decrees and for further Project development. Southeastern undertook a new study of its remaining conditional rights in Water Division 5, including water availability for these rights and alternatives for realizing the authorized yield of the Project, during the diligence period. Southeastern has appeared as a party in various water rights proceedings involving water rights in order to protect Southeastern’s various decreed rights in the Project. Southeastern also has expended substantial executive time and legal and engineering expense toward protecting and administering the Winter Water Storage Program in Pueblo Reservoir pursuant to the Decree in Case No. 84CW179 (Water Div. 2), which program contributes to repayment of the Project costs. Southeastern has taken part in various legislative, administrative and judicial proceedings to protect Southeastern’s rights in the Project, including its absolute and conditional West Slope water rights. 7.6. Southeastern and Reclamation have continued participating in and monitoring activities in relation to endangered fish species on the Colorado River and the critical habitat designated for these fish. The United States Fish and Wildlife Service issued its Programmatic Biological Opinion for the Upper Colorado River above the confluence with the on December 20, 1999, which required, among other things, that a certain quantity of water be delivered to the 15-Mile Reach of the Colorado River to ensure the protection of certain endangered species of fish. Throughout the diligence period, Southeastern and Reclamation have worked with other water users on the Colorado River to plan for and implement water releases to benefit endangered fish. Southeastern contributed $1.75 million to the Front Range Water Council’s $17.2 million plan for water releases to benefit four species of endangered fish on the Colorado River. 7.7. Southeastern also has worked extensively towards the completion of the Arkansas Valley Conduit (AVC). The AVC is a Project feature that was originally contemplated in the Project’s authorizing legislation to provide water to municipalities and water providers in the Arkansas River Valley. Reclamation was allotted in excess of $14 million for the AVC, and Southeastern spent in excess of $1 million in operating expenses on the AVC, from 2012-2018. The Record of Decision for the AVC was completed in 2014, after the Final Environmental Impact Statement was completed in 2013. To facilitate the AVC, Southeastern entered into a Contract with the United States for the Use of Excess Capacity in the Facilities of the Project on December 23, 2016. Planning for the AVC has continued throughout the diligence period. 7.8. Southeastern, acting through its Water Activity Enterprise, has completed adjudication of three exchange applications in Water Division 2. A final Decree in Case No. 01CW151 was entered on June 16, 2014, for exchange of certain return flows from Project water into Pueblo Reservoir for use within the Southeastern District. Southeastern also joined with four other parties to the May 2004 IGA to adjudicate “Recovery of Yield” exchange rights in Case No. 06CW120 (Water Div. 2), in which a final decree was entered August 17, 2016. This exchange allows Southeastern to recapture water for beneficial use to meet flow management program targets when it foregoes exchanges. The exchanges decreed in Case Nos. 01CW151 and 06CW120 help to “secure the greatest benefit from the use and reuse of imported project waters within project boundaries in the State of Colorado,” as provided in the Operating Principles and contemplated in the decrees for Southeastern’s water rights. Southeastern’s activities on these matters demonstrate reasonable diligence with respect to the District’s water rights for the Project. Southeastern also completed adjudication of exchange rights including Case No. 06CW08, in Water Division 2, for diverting water by exchange upstream on the Arkansas River at Pueblo Reservoir (including the proposed Pueblo Reservoir Enlargement), and to deliver to the downstream calling water right an equivalent amount of substitute supply water from ditch diversions and storage in facilities below Pueblo Reservoir. 7.9. Southeastern entered into a Lease of Power Privilege (LoPP) with Reclamation on August 10, 2017, to construct a Hydroelectric Power Plant at Pueblo Dam. Southeastern spent in excess of $7 million in 2017 to develop this Hydroelectric Power Plant. The planning and permitting process for the Plant began in 2011, after which design planning, permitting, and construction began. The Plant will cost in excess of $21 million, and Southeastern secured a $17.39 million loan from the Colorado Water Conservation Board. Southeastern estimates that up to 7.5 megawatts of power will be produced annually, and Southeastern would realize revenues of $50 million over the next 50 years, which would go toward programs which are crucial to the supply and protection of Project water. 7.10. While the construction of certain conditionally decreed Project features has not yet been started, there is no intent to abandon these features or any of the conditional water rights listed above. As recognized in the Decree in Case No. W-829-76, construction of these diversions has been “held in abeyance” pending actual operation of the Project for a sufficient period of time to determine whether or not construction of these features will become necessary. That evaluation remains underway, and has

MAY 2018 RESUME WATER DIVISION 5 PAGE 12 been the subject of substantial study since the previous diligence decree in 2012. As this Court has previously found, the construction, operation and maintenance of parts of the Project demonstrate reasonable diligence for other parts of the Project. The collection, transportation, storage, and power systems and features of the Project comprise one overall, integrated water supply project. See, e.g., Decrees in Case Nos. 95CW53 at 7 ¶7 & 89CW076 at 4 ¶7. 8.

As decreed in Case

MAY 2018 RESUME WATER DIVISION 5 PAGE 16

No. 96CW182, Water Division No. 5, this conditional water right is part of an integrated raw water supply and potable water distribution system. This system includes, among other things, the Ruesch Spring and Ruesch Spring Nos. 2, 3 and 5, the YMCA (Just) Spring, Well Nos. 1 and 2, and the Gaylord Feeder Ditch and Pipeline and associated facilities. This Court has previously found that diligence on one part of this system is diligence on the entire system. During the interval of time since this Court’s last finding of diligence concerning Gaylord Reservoir, in continuing the development of the water right which is the subject of this Application, Applicants have engaged in additional planning, design, and construction work related to the improvement of their storage, treatment, and distribution system for delivering water for beneficial use, and have engaged in the legal defense and protection of their rights. Work performed to develop the subject conditional water right includes, but is not limited to: A. YMCA made a significant number of upgrades to its water filtration system at a cost of $238,000, including: i. Installed a Harmsco Cartridge Filtration System. ii. Installed two Harmsco MUNI-3-3FL-304 filter housings. iii. Installed a SCADA system to provide remote monitoring of the chlorine concentration in the Ruesch Treatment Plant and the chlorine house (first tap); real-time monitoring of the 9-mile tank level; turbidity; real time flow data from the Just Spring, Ruesch Spring, and total inflow to the 9-mile tank. iv. Replaced water supply pumps and installed VFDs on pumps throughout the system to allow more flexibility in operations. B. YMCA retained W.W. Wheeler and Associates, Inc. to provide consulting services relating to the development and maintenance of the water rights that are used to supply Snow Mountain Ranch, including the water rights that are the subject of this Application. These services included: i. Inspection and maintenance of Gaylord Dam at a cost of $8,676. ii. Preparation of a 2015 water system analysis and report at a cost of $29,155. iii. Ongoing water rights related services, including accounting and other consulting services at a cost of $41,000. C. YMCA continued to protect and improve its legal water supplies for Snow Mountain Ranch that are integrated with the subject water rights, including: i. Obtaining findings of reasonable diligence in Case Nos. 14CW3110 and 17CW3050, which involved conditional rights that are a part of the same integrated water supply system as the subject water rights. ii. Monitoring applications for water rights which could adversely affect YMCA’s water rights decrees and filing a statement of opposition in Case No. 15CW3079. iii. Filing an application for a change of conditional water rights that are part of the same integrated water supply system as the subject water rights in Case No. 16CW3037 in 2016. iv. Expenditures by YMCA during this diligence period in connection with the above activities were approximately $30,276.68. D. The HOA and FVMRD have undertaken extensive water rights specific planning and development efforts. In March of 2017, Applicants and their water resources consultants met to discuss long-term build-out of the Fairways at Pole Creek residential development and golf course and residential operations under the plan for augmentation approved in Case No. 96CW175, Water Division No. 5. The Gaylord Reservoir water right that is the subject of this matter is a component of and source of replacement water under that plan for augmentation. E. Additionally, the HOA and FVMRD are currently prosecuting a diligence application for the water rights that were decreed in Case No. 96CW175, and which out-of-priority depletions can be replaced by the subject Gaylord Reservoir right. That diligence case is currently pending in Case No. 17CW3141. F. As was set forth in the application in Case No. 17CW3141, each year, the HOA spends between $5,500 and $5,800 for maintenance of open space areas and approximately $2,500 to $3,000 per year for flowers and a gardener. These spaces are served by the Nonresidential Well No. 1, which is included under the plan for augmentation in Case No. 96CW175, and which also shows diligence on the subject Gaylord Reservoir storage right. G. FVMRD also continues to incur costs maintaining and repairing the golf course. FVMRD spent $10,460 on more efficient sprinkler heads and nozzles, $9,636 for a pump that transfers water to the Ridge 9, and $8,874 for a new headgate at the Pole Creek Diversion No. 3. More recently, FVMRD spent an additional ~$77,000 in new pumps, motors, and a control panel for the Ridge 9 pump station. These expenditures are directly related to FVMRD’s irrigation facilities, which are also included under the plan for augmentation in Case No. 96CW175 and demonstrate diligence on the Gaylord Reservoir right. H. The HOA and FVMRD have also incurred legal and engineering fees associated with maintaining and developing the subject conditional water rights, as well as monitoring other applications in Division No. 5 that could potentially injure their interests. 4. Water was Diverted and Applied to Beneficial Use: As recognized in Case No. 96CW182, Co-Applicants diverted the full amount of 170 acre-feet into Gaylord Reservoir, stored, and applied this amount to beneficial use for recreational, piscatorial, augmentation, and fire protection purposes. Therefore, the Court decreed Gaylord Reservoir absolute for these purposes. An additional 47 acre-feet was decreed as absolute for irrigation purposes in Case No. 04CW159 under these same standards. The water right remained conditional for 170 acre-feet for domestic, municipal, commercial, replacement, and exchange purposes, and 123 acre-feet for irrigation. After the decrees were entered in Case Nos. 96CW182 and 04CW159, the Colorado General Assembly passed S.B. 13-41, codified at C.R.S. §§ 37-92-103(4)(a) and 37-92-301(4)(e), which changed the definition of beneficial use to include storage for any decreed purpose so that an applicant only needs to store water to perfect a conditional right, and not actually apply the water to each of its decreed uses. Therefore, Co-Applicants have complied with all requirements under Colorado law to make the Gaylord Reservoir water right absolute for all decreed purposes. WHEREFORE, Co-Applicants pray this Court enter a decree that Co-Applicants have made Gaylord Reservoir absolute in the full amount for all decreed uses, and in the alternative, that Co-Applicants have exercised reasonable diligence in the development of Gaylord Reservoir and continuing this water right in full force and effect.

MAY 2018 RESUME WATER DIVISION 5 PAGE 21 in April-May 2018 in the amount of 70 acre-feet. B. Applicant intends to continue diversions to both reservoirs for so long as they are in priority. When a call is made on the Colorado River, such that the reservoirs are out of priority, Applicant will discontinue diversions and promptly submit an affidavit of Bruce Hutchins, as the General Manager of Applicant and/or an affidavit from Leonard Rice Engineers, Inc., as consulting water engineers for Applicant, stating the full amount that the District has diverted and stored in priority and the method(s) by which such amount has been determined such as by diversion records, call records, capacity tables, etc. C. Applicant claims that the decreed conditional water rights for both reservoirs should be made absolute for all decreed purposes in the amounts set forth above and, thereafter, in the amounts to be set forth in the affidavits described above. 5. Detailed outline of work that has been done toward completion or for completion of the appropriation and application of water to a beneficial use as conditionally decreed, including expenditures, during the previous diligence period. A. From 2013 to 2015, the District, through various contractors, designed, engineered constructed and tested a liner that meets the design standard referenced in the August 1999 State Engineer Guidelines for Lining Criteria for Gravel Pits for the Grand County Water and Storage Reservoir No. 2 at an approximate expense of $1.45 million. Construction was completed in 2015. Other costs related to reservoir lining include contracts with the materials testing firm and ground engineering for soil and concrete testing. B. In December 2015, the Dam Safety Branch of the Colorado Division of Water Resources conducted an inspection of dam and reservoir for GCWSD Water Storage Reservoir No. 2. Final construction documents were provided to the Division on or about July 5, 2016. By letter dated July 12, 2016, the dam and reservoir project was accepted by the Dam Safety Branch for full use when water is physically and legally available. C. In letters dated December 8, 2016 and March 17, 2016, GEI Consultants, on behalf of the District, provided a leak test memo and leak test results memo to the Colorado Division of Water Resources. By letter dated March 30, 2016, the Division determine that GCWSD Reservoir No. 2 has been lined to the design standard referenced in the August 1999 State Engineer Guidelines for Lining Criteria for Gravel Pits. D. In 2017, the District paid approximately $18,400 to GEI Consultants to design and engineer a new outlet structure and building for GCWSD Water Storage Reservoir No. 1 and GCWSD Water Storage Reservoir No. 2. The new outlet structure will allow accurate and measurable releases from both reservoirs on a year-round basis. The District has also paid approximately $9,000 to Ed Duerr, Inc., the District’s water and wastewater consultant, for engineering support related to metering, building, electrical and ongoing construction negotiations. During the diligence period, the District has entered into negotiations for construction of the new outlet structure in 2018 at an anticipated cost of approximately $100,000. The water rights for GCWSD Water Storage Reservoir No. 1 and GCWSD Water Storage Reservoir No. 2 are part of an integrated water supply system intended to provide water and wastewater services to the water users located in the District’s service area. As such, the District claims the following activities as additional diligence activities for GCWSD Water Storage Reservoir No. 1 and GCWSD Water Storage Reservoir No. 2. E. The District has expended funds in both protecting its water rights as well as continuing to file water rights applications to guarantee replacement water will be available for its water rights. F. The District both in conjunction with the Town of Winter Park, as well as individually, has studied and worked out growth projections to provide a dependable water supply to the Town of Winter Park. G. The District has continued to pay to the Middle Park Water Conservancy District annual fees such that water will continue to be available from Granby Reservoir and Wolford Mountain Reservoir to replace the District’s depletions in the future. H. The District has continued to participate in discussions with the Denver Water Department, as well as with Winter Park Water and Sanitation District, on joint methodologies for providing water to the Town of Winter Park. I. The District has participated in discussions leading to Grand County hiring engineering firms and performing the Grand County Stream Flow Management Plan that will protect flows and allow additional diversions in the Upper Fraser River Basin. J. The District has expended funds and improved bypass facilities that will allow additional bypasses by Denver Water as required by agreements between or among the District, Denver Water and other parties, including without limitation the 1992 Clinton Agreement, the 2013 Colorado River Cooperative Agreement and the 2013 Article III Implementation Agreement. K. The District has expended more than $2.5 million for additional capacity to serve the District, as well expended hundreds of thousands of dollars in additional engineering to analyze ways to put these water rights and other water rights to beneficial use. L. The District has spent substantial sums of money to enlarge distribution lines within the District and to reduce inflow and infiltration to the District’s water lines. M. The District has participated in improving the Fraser River through the Town of Winter Park. N. The District previously spent in excess of $200,000 to purchase an interest in the Vail Ditch as a participant in the Grand County Mutual Ditch and Reservoir Company, During the diligence period, the District engaged in discussions and negotiations with the Grand County Irrigated Land Company and with Denver Water to use the Vail Ditch water to increase water supply and/or streamflow. O. During the diligence period, the District participated in guiding efforts of West Slope entities that led to the execution of the Colorado River Cooperative Agreement and expended time and money on attorney's fees and engineering in support of that effort over the last six years. P. Partially as the result of the efforts of District, additional water has been made available to the District through the Colorado River Cooperative Agreement, particularly Paragraph III.E, which has provisions as follows: i. Attachment M to the Agreement provides benefits to the District as noted in the Agreement and particularly 68.75 acre feet that will be bypassed by Denver Water and provide additional water. ii. Paragraph 10 of the Agreement recognizes efforts by the Grand

MAY 2018 RESUME WATER DIVISION 5 PAGE 22

County Mutual Ditch Company, which includes the District, in purchasing the Vail Ditch, and provides for the bypass of additional water by Denver Water in the headwaters of the Fraser River. iii. Paragraph 12 provides that Denver Water will not be able to reduce certain bypass flows on Vasquez Creek, from which the District draws its water supply, and thereby increases the amount of water available to the District. iv. Paragraph 15 provides that the District will have year round delivery of its Clinton Water. v. Paragraph 21 recognizes the ability of the District and others to utilize the Vail Ditch, and Denver Water has agreed to cooperate in such use. vi. Additionally, there are provisions in the Grand County Operating Plan, executed after completion of the Colorado River Cooperative Agreement, which provides more details on utilization of the Vail Ditch, contract water to which the District is entitled and bypass water supplies that benefit the District and Vasquez Creek. Q. The District participated in the Environmental Flow Adjudication, Case No. 11CW152, which has the Denver Water Board, Grand County and Colorado Water Conservation Board as Applicants. The adjudication recognized the right of the District to utilize water bypassed by Denver Water, and also provides that the District can exchange water into Williams Fork Reservoir to decrease its replacement obligations to Denver Water. R. As noted above, the District participated in the Clinton agreements in 1992, including a Delivered Water Agreement among certain of the parties and the Colorado Water Conservation Board (“CWCB”). In the Delivered Water Agreement, the CWCB agreed that it would not claim Denver Water's bypasses for instream flows. CWCB’s agreement was also recognized in District adjudication of its water under the Clinton agreements in Case No. 92CW305. As a result of the Colorado River Cooperative Agreement process, the same parties executed with the CWCB a First Amendment to Delivered Water Agreement, dated June 25, 2013, which expanded the list of water rights and bypasses for which the Colorado Water Conservation Board would not claim instream flow uses. The First Amendment directly benefits the District and its water rights since it allowed Denver Water’s bypasses to be utilized without a claim of injury by the CWCB. 6. Names and addresses of owners or reputed owners of the land upon which any new diversion or storage structure, or modification to any existing diversion or storage structure is or will be constructed or upon which water is or will be stored, including any modification to the existing storage pool. A. Applicant is the owner of the land on which the GCWSD Water Storage Reservoir No. 1 and the GCWSD Water Storage Reservoir No. 2 are located. B.

The purpose of this application is to secure and augment a water supply for uses described in the First, Second and Third Claims on the subject properties through use of an already constructed shared well described in the First Claim and/or two potential new wells described in the Second and Third Claims and/or any combination thereof. Water requirements: Domestic, commercial, industrial fire protection: The anticipated maximum monthly and annual water requirements (diversions and depletions) associated with these uses are expressed in EQR’s as shown on Tables 1 and 2, on file the court, and equate to 15.09 EQR’s. The assumptions used to determine the number of EQR’s associated with the development are shown on Table 2. The mix of number of buildings and sizes may vary as the development proceeds, and such mix will be incorporated into and covered by this plan for augmentation so long as the development does not exceed 15.09 EQR’s. Irrigation: Anticipated maximum monthly and annual water requirements (diversions and depletions) for the irrigation use is shown on Table 1. Wastewater from potable uses: treated with non-evapotranspirative sewage disposal systems with estimated 15% consumptive use. Total estimated annual depletions from potable use is 0.91 acre-foot. Well depletions: Cumulative total annual depletions for three wells combined is 3.05 acre-feet. Operation of plan for augmentation: During a dry year, a mainstem call on the Colorado River downstream of its confluence with the Eagle River, such as the Shoshone power call or Cameo/Grand Valley call, is assumed to last up to 304 total days as shown on Table 1. Whenever a valid and administered call is made by a water right on the Colorado River below the point of depletions, Applicant shall augment directly or by exchange all out-of-priority depletions from the subject wells through releases from the various River District water rights described in this application pursuant to a River District Water Supply Contract. 14. Appropriative right of exchange: The plan for augmentation described above includes an application for an appropriative right of exchange, conditional, for the augmentation water released pursuant to a River District Contract, extending from the lower termini of the River District sources of supply (as they confluence with the Colorado River) to the upper terminus of the Applicant’s depletion points on the Colorado River. Applicant shall operate the exchange only when it is in priority. Map of water rights is on file with the court as Exhibit A. Co-Applicants own the land on which the structures described in the First, Second and Third Claim are located and will be put to beneficial use.

First Amended Application for Correction to Established but Erroneously Described Pt. of Diversion Pursuant to C.R.S. 37-92-305(3.6). Applicants: James A. Fitzsimmons Trust, dated 11/12/1993, and the Carol V. Fitzsimmons Trust, dated 11/12/1993 (“Fitzsimmons Trusts”); c/o Balcomb & Green, P.C.; P.O. Drawer 790, Glenwood Springs, CO 81602; 970-945-6546. Decreed water right for which correction is sought: Erickson No. 2 Ditch. Original and relevant subsequent decrees: Dist. Court for Eagle County in C.A. 446 under Priority No. 237 for 1.00 cfs for irr. purposes with an adj. date of 6/4/1907 and an approp. date of 10/30/1901. A separate priority was decreed in C.A. 294 under Priority No. 237EX for 1.416 cfs for irr. purposes with an adj. date of 6/7/1915, and an approp. date of 12/31/1914. The source is Miller Gulch Creek, a trib. of Gypsum Creek. Amt: Applicants own 66% of the two decreed priorities, being 0.66 cfs of Priority No. 237 and 0.9345 cfs of Priority No. 237EX, for a total of 1.5945 cfs. Legal desc. of structure as described in most recent decree that adjudicated the location: the headgate of said ditch is situated on the left bank of the Miller Gulch Creek, from which stream said ditch derives and diverts its supply of water at a pt. whence the corner of Sec. 14-15-22 and 23 in T. 6 S., R. 85 W., 6th P.M. bears S 40° 36’ East 4332.6 ft. Detailed desc. of proposed correction: Applicants request a correction to an established but erroneously described pt. of diversion of the Erickson No. 2 Ditch pursuant to C.R.S. § 37-92- 305(3.6)(a) & (b). Applicants have at all times diverted water pursuant to their decreed water rights in C.A. 446. Applicants reasonably believe the pt. of diversion described in C.A. 446 to be in error. Water Commissioner plotted the location of the pt. of diversion from the Decree in C.A. 446. The Decree states that the headgate for the Erickson No. 2 Ditch is on the bank of Miller Creek Gulch. As plotted in the Decree, the pt. of diversion is not in Miller Creek Gulch, and cannot ever have been the pt. of diversion for the Erickson No. 2 Ditch. The decreed location is more than 500 ft. from the historical pt. of diversion. Applicants reasonably believe the historical pt. of diversion has been in use since at least the time the Erickson No. 2 Ditch was adjudicated on 6/4/1907, thereby creating a rebuttable presumption of having been located at the same physical location since its inception. Applicants’ request for a correction is limited to the Applicants’ 66% share of the adjudicated water rights in the Erickson No. 2 Ditch as described by water rights agreement signed on 7/13/2007 and recorded in the Eagle County records at Reception No. 200723457. The legal desc. of the correct pt. of diversion in UTM format: Easting 336507; Northing 4376139; Zone 13 via hand-held Garmin GPS (accurate within 2 meters). Legal Desc. Using the Public Land Survey System (PLSS): SW1/4, NE1/4, Sec. 23, T. 6 S. R. 85 W., 6th P.M., 1436 ft. from North sec. line; 2397 ft. from East sec. line. Name(s) and address(es) of owner(s) or reputed owners of the land: The historical headgate is located on lands owned by: Gypsum Creek Outpost Trust; c/o Darren E. Flamik, Trustee; 9601 Interstate 630, Exit 7; Little Rock, AR 72205.
