3UILOING & PLANNING
This is offered to assist you in responding to the letter dated February 4, 2003, authored by Fred
Jarman, Senior Planner, Garfield County Building and Planning Department.
Submitted herewith you will find the Grant of Easement (original and two copies) from Richard
Murr to you for the well easement which s erves the two lots included witlun the exe mption. As you
can see it has been recorded in Book 1431 at Page 140 in the o ffice of the Garfield County Clerk and
Recorder. Also, submitted herewith i s what I believe t o be the final Well Sharing Agreement ready
for your signatures.
I respectfully submit that the access easeme11t nee d not be amended because the real property
described in the Grant is identical to ~ot Two and Lot Three of the Dooley Subdivision Exemption.
The exemption plat, when recorded, establishes thi s identity and there is no reason t o clutter the
County real estate records with superfluous documents.
Similarly, it is not necessaiy to record a document separate from the subdivision exemption plat and
Well Sharing Agreement to establish the access easement or well easement. The well sharing
agreement has an internal reference to the well easement which fmther elaborates on its use and
maintenance. An immediate attempt at a separate grant of these easements is futile as you ov.n both
the dominant and servient parcels and a grant ·wo uld simply result in a merger of title in the
ownership as it presently exists . I am confident that the County attorney will analyze this problem
in the same manner if asked. After the recording of the subdivision exemption plat, future
conveyances of either Lot Two or Lot Three by you and your successors-in-interest 'A-ill make
reference to the easements to 'vhich lots are subject and from which they benefit. That is the
appropriate way to m a intain the legal existence of the se easements. The pl at, once recorded, offers
a legally sufficient way to describe the easements b y r eference.

I have added language to paragraph 7 of the Well Sharing Agreement which I believe to be consistent
with our other dis cuss ions.
I hope that the approval of your final plat will go forward. I would be happy to answer your
questions or discuss these matters with the County attorney, if necessary.

A title search was performed by Commonwealth Title Co. showing the original parcel of
land (SWl/4 of the NEl/4 of Section 6, Tp . 6 S., R. 92 W., 6th P.M more or less a 40 acre pare~)
existed as sing parcel prior to 1973. (See enclosed letter dated January 1998 .) In July of 1973
a warranty deed indicates the transfer of ownership of that parcel excepting a 5-acre parcel as
described in the warranty deed dated 3 July 1973 . At that point the original parcel became 2
parcels (enclosed is a copy of a survey performed at that time showing the original +/-40 acre
parcel with a 5 acre parcel delineated on it. see exhibit 3). Michael and Sharon Dooley purchased
the parcel (SWl/4 of the NEl /4 of sec.6, Tp. 6S., R . 92 W., excepting 5 acres as described in
warranty deed of 7/73) +/-35 acres in October of 1997. The+/-35-acre Dooley parcel was
subdivided according to the subdivision exemption rules of 1973 cteating one additional lot. (See
exhibit 1. LOT 1 an 2 Dooley subdivision exemption plat aated August 3, 1998). By that
subdivision exemption the original parcel as it existed prior to January 1973 had become 3
parcels. (One 5-acre-parcel, a 2..75 -acre parcel and a 29.8-acre parcel) According to the
subdivision exemption rules, no more than 4 parcel s shall be created from a parcel as it existed
prior to Janu ary 1973 .
As of the current date the 4 °1 and final subdivision exemption is being applied for which
will create a 4th parcel from the original parcel as it existed prior to 1973 . (See exhibit 4 Dooley
subdivision exemption plat showing a 5 acre parcel, a 2.75 acre parcel , a 8.8 acre parcel and a 21. 03
· _ acre parcel. After approval of the current subdivision exemption no further parcels can be
created under the rules of subdivision exemption for the SWl/4 of the NEl /4 of Sec. 6, Tp. 6S.,

Garfield County Planning Department
Dear Sir or Madam:
We, Frank L. and Rosemary E. Fraser, residing at 0719 County Road 225, Rifle, CO, do
protest Mr. Dooley's intentions to subdivide his property into two parcels.
Please note, (1) Mr. Dooley has subdivided his property once already which includes a
house on that subdivided parcel. (2) County Road 225 from the point it leaves Mile Pond
Road (County Rd. 210) on the south to County Road 233 to the north is a lane, and cannot
safely take on more traffic. (3) Our county style of living would be lost with additional
homes added. (4) Please note that the intentions t o subdivide this property is not properly
posted at the property site. We strongly fear if this subdivision is allowed, it could bring
additional subdivisions in the future from other property owners. Therefore, we
respectfully urge the Garfield County Planning Department to deny this request to
subdivide the Dooley property.
Sincerely,
Frank L. & Rosemary E. Fraser

The exemption is being requested in order to create a separate lot in order to build a
single family home . By creating th is lot and home I w ill be able to have a smaller more
manageable parcel of land. I wi ll as well gain an economic benefit with the sale of my existing lot
and thus be better able to afford living on my property .
Sincerely, .

Reference: Subdivision exemption
Mr. Dcdey,
The Rifle Fire Protection District has recently reviewed your proposed subdivision
exemption. It is the Districts understanding that your proposal is to take one parcel of
approximately 29.8 acres and create two p~els,;;onc gf~roximately 20..2 a<ireS and one
of a_pproximatdy 9 .6 acres. The Di Strict further rinderstanqs that the proposed uses of the
par.eels will be residential · · . , · ·· ., .. · ·· · ·· ·· ,, · ·.

would likely not be available to extinguish a fully involved structure fire. The.
proposal. does however meet the D1stricf' s minimum reqµirements of having an
approved water supply within two miles.
Thank. you for your cooperation and feel free to contact me if I can be of further
assistance .

Rhone series
The Rhone series consists of deep , well drained soils
that formed in residuum from sandstone and marlstone.
Rhone soils are on mountainsides and ridges. Slopes are
· 5 to 70 percent. The average annual precipitation is
about 20 inches, and the average annual air temperature
is about 40 degrees F.
Rhone soils are similar to Silas, Northwater, and Para-
chute soils . Silas soils contain O to 15 percent rock
fragments throughout. Parachute soils have lithic contact
at a depth of 20 to 40 inches. Northwater soils have an
arg illic horizon.
Typical pedon of Rhone loam, 5 to 30 percent slopes,
about 300 feet south and 200 feet east of the northwest
corner of section 13, T. 5 S., R. 96 W.:
A 11-0 to 8 inches; brown (1 OYR 4/3) loam, very dark

am 3 to 6 percent slopes. This deep,
we rained, moderately s oping so i 1s on mesas, bench-
es , and sides of valleys . Elevat ion ranges from 5 ,000 to
7 ,000 feet. This soil formed · in alluvium derived from
sandstone, shale, or basalt. The average annual precipi-
tat ion is about 14 inches , the average annual air tem-
perature is about 46 degrees F, and the average frost-
free period is about 120 days .
Typically , the surface layer is brown loam about 4
inches thick. The subsoil is reddish brown clay loam
about 24 inches thick. The substratum is pinkish white
loam to a depth of 60 inches.
Included with this soil in mapping are small areas of
Olney, Kim, and Ildefonso soils that have slopes of 3 to
6 percent. These areas make up 1 O to 15 percent of the
map unit.
Permeability is moderate, and available water capacity
is high. Effective rooting depth is 60 inches or more .
Surface runoff is slow, and the erosion hazard is moder-
ate .
This soil is used mainly for irrigated crops and hay and
for dr~tland farming (fig. 10). Alfalfa, small grains, and
grass-legume hay are grown. Small areas are used for
grazing . ·
These soils are usually irrigated by flooding. Drop
structures in irrigat ion ditches, grassed waterways , and
minimum tillage prevent serious erosion . Irrigation water
should be carefully managed to avoid piping and erosion.
Cover crops or stubble mulching also help to limit ero-
sion in dryfarmed areas.
The native vegetation on this soil is ma inly wheat-
grass, ·needleandthread , and sagebrush .
When range condition deteriorates, forbs and shrubs
increase. When the range is in poor condition, undesira-
ble weeds and annual plants are numerous . Properly
managing grazing ma intains and improves range condi-
tion. Reducing brush improves the range . Seeding im -
proves range in poor condi t ion. Crested wheatgrass ,
wes t ern wheatgrass, and Russian wildrye are suitable for
seeding. Preparing a seedbed and drilling the seed are
good practices.
Pheasant, mourning dove , cottontail rabbit , some mule
deer, and squirrel find habitat on this soil.
Community development and recreation · are limited by
low strength and the shrink -swell potential. Dwellings
and roads can be designed to overcome these limita-
tions. Community sewage systems will be needed if the
population density increases.
Th is soil is in capability subclasses I lie, irrigated , and
IVe , nonirrigated.

T his soil is used mainly for grazing, wildlife habitat, and
some dryland farming (fig. 10). Wheat, barley, and oats
are grown .
Minimum contour tillage and stubble mulching help to
prevent excessive erosion .
The native vegetation on this soil is mainly wheat-
grass, needleandthread, and sagebrush.
When range condition deteriorates , forbs and shrubs
increase. When the range is in poor condition, undesira-
ble weeds and annual plants are numerous . Properly

mesas and sides of valleys . Elevation ranges from 5 ,0 0 0
to 6,500 feet. The Potts soil formed in alluvium derived
from sandstone , shale, or basalt. The Ildefonso soil
f ormed in very strongly calcareous, basaltic alluvium and
small amounts of eolian material. The average annual
p recipitation is about 14 inches, the average annual air
t emperature is about 46 degrees F, and the average
f rost-free period is about 120 days.

RIFLE AREA, COLORADO
Arie series
The Arie series consists of moderately deep, well
drained soils that formed in residuum from red shale and
sandstone . Arie soils are on ridges and hills in the up-
lands. Slopes are 12 to 65 percent. The average annual
precipitation is about 18 inches, and the average annual
air temperature is about 43 degrees F.
Arie soils are similar to Tridell soils. Tridell soils con-
tain a calcic horizon and are calcareous throughout the
profile.
Typical pedon of Arie very stony loam, 12 to 65 per-
cent slopes, about 2,450 feet north and 400 feet east of
the southwest corner, section 24, T. 6 S., R. 88 W.:
A 1-0 to 10 inches; reddish brown (5YR 4/3) very stony
loam, dark reddish brown (5YR 3/3) moist; moder-
ate medium granular structure; soft, very friable; 40
percent flagstones; mildly alkaline; gradual smooth
boundary.
82-10 to 19 inches; reddish brown (5YR 4/ 4) very
stony loam, reddish brown (5YR 3/4) moist; moder-
ate medium subangular blocky structure parting to
moderate medium granular; slightly hard, very fri-
able; 40 percent flagstones; slightly calcareous;
moderately alkaline; clear wavy boundary.
Cca-19 to 32 inches; reddish brown (5YR 5/4) very
stony loam, reddish brown (5YR 4/ 4) moist; mas-
sive; hard, very friable; 60 percent flagstones; visible
accumulations of secondary calcium carbonate as
small lime concretions and as coatings on under-
sides of coarse fragments; strongly calcareous;
moderately alkaline; clear wavy boundary.
Cr-32 to 60 inches; soft reddish brown sandstone and
shale.
The mollic epipedon ranges from 7 to 15 inches in
thickness. Depth to the paralithic contact ranges from 20
to 40 inches. In places this soil is leached to a depth of
7 to 15 inches. Coarse fragments make up 35 to 80
percent, by volume, of the soil.
The A horizon has hue of 2.5YR to 5YR, value of 4 or
5 dry and 2 or 3 moist, and chroma of 3 to 6. The B
horizon has hue of 2.5YR to 5YR, value of 4 to 6 dry
and 3 to 5 moist, and chroma of 3 to 6. The C horizon
has hue of 5YR to 1 OR .
~
The Arvada series consists of deep, well drained soils "
that formed in alluvium derived from shale. Arvadas soil ··
are on benches, terraces, and outwash fans. Slopes are
1 to 20 percent. The average annual precipitation is 12
inches, and the average annual air temperature is 48
degrees F. ·
Arvada soils are similar to Heldt and Potts soils. Heldt
soils do not have a natric horizon or an argillic horizon.
• 53
Potts soils are less than 35 percent clay in the control
section and do not have a natric horizon.
Typical pedon of Arvada loam, 1 to 6 percent slopes,
about 2,640 feet south and 200 feet east of the north-
west corner of section 34, T. 7 S., R. 96 W.:
A2-0 to 3 inches; pale brown (1 OYR 6/3) loam, brown
(1 OYR 5/3) moist; moderate medium platy structure
parting to weak fine granular ; soft, friable, calcare-
ous; strongly alkaline; abrupt smooth boundary.
B21t-3 to 7 inches; brown (7.5YR 5/2) silty clay loam ,
dark brown (7.5YR 4/2) moist; weak coarse colum-
nar structure parting to moderate medium subangu-
lar blocky; hard, firm, slightly sticky and slightly plas-
tic; thin patchy clay films on peds; calcareous;
strongly alkaline; clear smooth boundary.
B22t-7 to 17 inches; brown (7.5YR 5/2) siity clay loam,
dark brown (7.5YR 4/2) moist; moderate medium
subangular blocky structure; hard, firm , sticky and
plastic; thin, nearly continuous clay films on peds; 15
percent white (1 OYR 8/2) salt accumulations; calcar-
eous; strongly alkaline; clear smooth boundary.
Ccasa-17 to 40 inches; light brown (7.5YR 6/4) silty
clay loam, dark brown (7.5YR 4/2) moist; massive;
very hard, firm, sticky and plastic; calcium carbonate
accumulations as seams and mycelia; some gypsum
crystals on peds; 30 percent white .. (1 OYR 8/2) salt
accumulations; calcareous; strongly alkaline ; gradual
smooth boundary.
C-40 to 60 inches; brown (7.5YR 5/3) silty clay loam,
dark brown (7.5YR 4/2) moist; few fine yellowish
brown mottles (1 OYR 5/8); massive; very hard, firm,
slightly sticky and slightly plastic; 15 percent white
(1 OYR 8/2) salt accumulations; calcareous; moder-
ately alkaline.
The solum ranges from 15 to 25 inches in thickness.
Depth to calcareous material ranges from O to 8 inches.
A thin A 1 horizon is present in some pedons. The light
colored, platy A2 horizon is absent in some pedons.
The A horizon has hue of 2.5Y or 1 OYR, value of 5 or
6 dry and 4 or 5 moist, and chroma of 2 to 4. The A
horizon ranges from moderately alkaline to very strongly
alkaline . The B horizon has hue of 1 OYR or 7.5YR , value
of 5 or 6 dry and 4 or 5 moist, and chroma of 2 to 4. The
C horizon has hue of 10YR or 7.5YR , value of 5 to 7 dry
and 4 or 5 moist, and chroma of 2 to 4.
Ascalon series
The Ascalon series consists of deep, well drained soils
t hat formed in alluvium derived from sandstone and
shale . Ascalon soils are on alluvial fans and sloping
mesas . Slopes are 1 to 12 percent. The average annual
precipitation is about 15 inches, and the average annual
air temperature is abou t 48 degrees F.

ment. Reducing brush improves the range if the grass
understory is adequate.
Cottontail rabbit and pheasant find shelter on this soil
if they can obtain food in surrounding areas.
Use of this soil for sanitary facilities, for community
development, and as a source of construction material is
limited by the high shrink-swell potential, slow permeabil-
ity, clayey textures, and salinity.
This soil is in capability subclass Vlls, irrigated and
nonirrigated.
4-Arvada loam, 6 to 20 percent slopes. This deep,
well drained , sloping soil is on fans and high terraces.
Elevation ranges from 5, 100 to 6,200 feet. This soil
formed in highly saline alluvium derived from sandstone
and shale. The average annual precipitation is about 12
inches, average annual air temperature is about 48 de-
grees F, and the average frost-free period is about 120
days.
Typically, the surface layer is moderately alkaline, pale
brown loam about 3 inches thick. The subsoil is brown
silty clay loam about 14 inches thick. The substratum is
light brown or brown silty clay loam to a depth of 60
inches.
Included with this soil in mapping are small areas of
Limon, Kim, and Heldt soils.
Permeability is very slow, and available water capacity
is high. Effective rooting depth is 60 inches or more.
Organic matter content of the surface layer is low. Sur-
face runoff is moderately rapid, and the erosion hazard is
severe .
This soil is used mainly for wildlife habitat and limited
grazing .
The native vegetation on th is soil is mainly sagebrush,
greasewood, and wheatgrass.
When range condition deteriorates, grasses decrease
and weedy forbs, cheatgrass, big sagebrush, and
greasewood increase. Properly managing grazing main-
tains and improves range condition. Seeding improves
range in poor condition. Western wheatgrass and tall
wheatgrass are suitable for seeding. Preparing a
seedbed and drilling the seed are good practices. Irrigat-
ing new seedings is necessary for successful establish-
ment. Brush should not be reduced because grass pro-
duction is low and some desirable native shrubs could
be destroyed.
Cottontail and pheasants find shelter on this soil if
they can obtain food in surrounding areas.
Use of this soil for sanitary facilities and as a source of
construction material is limited by the large amounts of
clay and salts. This soil is corrosive to steel and con-
crete. Community development is limited by high shrink-
swel l potential, salinity, and steep slopes .
This soil is in capability subclass VI Is, nonirrigated.

is on mesas, alluvial fans, and terraces. Elevation ranges
from 5,000 to 6,500 feet. The soil formed in alluvium
derived from sandstone and shale. The average annual
pre c ipitation is about 14 inches, the average annual air
temperature is about 48 degrees F, and the average
frost-free period is about 120 days.
Typically, the surface layer is brown fine sandy loam
about 5 inches thick . The subsoil is·· brown and yellowish
brown sandy clay loam about 30 inches thick. The sub-
stratum is very pale brown sandy clay loam to a depth of
60 inches.
Included with this soil in mapping are small areas of
Olney and Potts soils that have slopes of 1 to 6 percent.
Permeability is moderate, and available water capacity
is moderate . Effective rooting depth is 60 inches. Sur-
face runoff is slow, and the erosion hazard is moderate.
This soil is used mainly for irrigated crops, hay, and
pasture. Some areas are used for grazing and wildlife
habitat.
This soil is irrigated mainly by corrugations. Sprinklers
are also suitable. This soil erodes easily . Such practices
as minimum tillage, grassed waterways, and tail water
control reduce the danger of excessive erosion. Drop
structures in irrigation ditches control water and prevent
excessive ditch erosion.
The native vegetation on this soil is mainly need-
lea ndthread, wheatgrasses , and sagebrush .
When range condition deteriorates, forbs and shrubs
increase. When the range is in poor condition, undesira-
ble weeds and annual plants are numerous. Properly
managing grazing maintains and improves range condi-
tion. Reducing brush also improves the range . Seeding
improves range in poor condition. Pubescent wheat-
grass, western wheatgrass, and big bluegrass are suit-
able for seeding. Preparing a seedbed and drilling the
seed are good practices.
This soil has potential as habitat for pheasant, cotton-
tail rabbit , mourning dove, and squirrel. These animals
mostly obtain food and shelter in areas of crops and hay.
This soil has few limitations for community develop-
ment. Low strength and frost action affect structures and
roads . Community sewage systems will be needed if the
population density increases.
This soil is in capability subclasses Ille, irrigated, and
IVe , nonirrigated.
6-Ascalon fine sandy loam, 6 to 12 percent
slopes. This deep, well drained, moderately sloping to
roll ing soil is on mesas, terraces, sides of valleys, and
alluvial fans. Elevation ranges from 5,000 to 6,500 feet.
The soil formed in alluvium derived from sandstone and
shale. The average annual precipitation is about 14
inc he s, the average annual air temperature is about 48
degrees F, and the average frost-free period is about
120 days.
Typically, the surface layer is brown fine sandy loam
about 5 inches thick. The subsoil is brown and yellowish

about 5 to 10 percent of the map unit.
Permeab ility is moderately slow, and available water
capacity is high. The effective rooting depth is 60 inches
or more. Surface ru noff is medium, and the erosion
hazard is moderate.
This soil is used ma inly .for wildlife habitat and limited
grazing.
The native vegetation on t his soil is mainly Gambel
oak , serviceberry , elk sedge, and bromes.
When range condition deteriorates , forbs and woody
shrubs increase. Whe n the range is in poor condition,
Kentucky bluegrass , undesirable weeds, and annual
plants are abundant. Properly managing grazing main-
tains and improves range condition .
Mule deer, elk, cottontail rabbit, wild turkey, and blue
grouse find habitat on t his soil.
Community development and sanitary facilities are lim-
ited by steep slopes and low strength .
This soil is in cap ability subclass Vile, nonirrigated .
2-Arle-Ansari-Rock outcrop complex, 12 to 65
percent slopes. This complex consists of strongly slop-
ing to steep soils and Rock outcrop on mountainsides
and sloping alluvial fans . Elevation ranges from 5,500 to
7,500 feet. The soils formed in alluvium derived from
red-bed shale and sa ndstone. The average annual pre-
cipitation is about 16 inches, the . average annual air
temperature is about 42 degrees F, and the average
frost-free period is about 100 days.
The Arie soil makes up about 45 percent of the com-
plex, the Ansari so il makes up about 35 percent, and
Rock outcrop makes up about 20 percent.
The Arie soi l is moderately deep and well drained.
Typically, the surface layer is reddish brown very stony
loam about 10 inches t hick. The subsoil and substratum
are reddish brown very stony loam about 22 inches thick.
Soft reddish brown sandstone and shale are at a depth
of 32 inches.
Permeability of the Arie soil is moderate , and available
water capacity is low. Effective rooting depth is about 20
to 40 inches. Surface runoff is medium, and the erosion
hazard is severe .
The Ansari soil is shallow and well drained. Typically,
the surface layer is reddish brown loam about 1 O inches
thick. The substratum is reddish brown stony loam. Bed-
rock is hard, reddish brown sandstone.
Pe r meability of the A nsari soil is moderate , and availa-
ble water capac ity is low. Effective rooting depth is about
10 to 20 inches . Surface runoff is rapid , and the erosion
hazard is severe .
Rock outcrop is ma inly red sandstone .
This complex is used mainly for grazing and wildlife
habitat.
The native vegetation on the Arie soil is mainly wheat-
grass, Indian ricegrass , mountainmahogany , and sage-

brush. The native vegetation on the Ansar i soil is mainly
Indian ricegrass , wheatgrass , and sagebrush .
When range condition deteriorates, forbs and shrubs
increase. When the range is in poor condition, undesira-
ble weeds and annual plants are numerous . Properly
managing grazing maintains and improves range c ondi-
tion .
Mule deer, rabbit, and grouse find habitat on these
soils.
Use of this complex for community development or as
a source of construction material is limited mainly by
depth to rock, steep slopes , thin layers of borrow materi-
al , and large stones. Special design can overcome these
limitations. Drainage and structures to control runoff from
snowmelt reduce erosion around construction sites and
roads .
This complex is in capability subclass VIie, nonirrigat-
ed.
3-Arvada loa , 1 to 6 percent slopes. This deep ,
we rame , s oping soil is on fans and high terraces
(fig . 4). Elevation ranges from 5 , 100 to 6,200 feet. This
soil formed in highly saline alluvium derived from sand-
stone and shale . The average annual precipitation is
about 12 inches, the average annual air temperature is
about 48 degrees F, and the average frost-free period is
about 120 days.
Typically, the surface layer is strongly alkaline or very
strongly alkaline, pale brown loam about 3 inches thick.
The subsoil is brown silty clay loam about 14 inches
thick. The substratum is light brown or brown silty clay
loam to a depth of 60 inches.
Included with th is soil in mappi ng are small areas of
Limon , Kim , Heldt, and Wann soils. Also included are
some soils that are high in silt.
Permeability is very slow, and available water capacity
is moderate. Effective rooting depth is 60 inches or
more . Organic matter content of the surface layer is low .
Surface runoff is medium, and the erosion hazard is
moderate .
This so il is used mainly for wildlife habitat, limited
grazing, and some irrigated farming.
Irrigated crops produce very poorly because the soil
takes water in very slowly and is droughty. Leach ing is
needed to remove excess salts if this soil is to be irrigat-
ed . Soil amendments containing sulphur are helpfu l in
leaching the salt.
The native vegetation on this soil is mainly saltgrass,
alkali sacaton , and greasewood .
When range condition deteriorat es, forbs and shrubs
increase . Properly managing grazing maintains an d im-
proves range condit ion. Seeding improves range in poor
condition. Western wheatgrass , alkali sacaton, an d tall
wheatgrass are suitable for seeding . Preparing a
seedbed and drilling the seed are good practices . Irrigat-
ing new seedings is necessary for successful establish -
