The Exemption was conditionally approved on January 3, 1995. Thereafter, the Gipsons have diligently pursued obtaining a legal water supply. The property has an adequate physical water supply however, the Gipsons' have been caught in a catch twenty-two with approval of the exemption being conditioned upon approval of well permits, and approval of well permits being conditioned upon approval of the exemption. The well permit is presently being resubmitted with additional information to establish historic in-house use for two single family dwellings which will satisfy the conditions for approval. The State Engineer's office has been unusually delayed in responding to well permit applications, often requiring up to 10 weeks for a response. It is anticipated that this will successfully conclude compliance with the conditions of approval, however, it is unlikely that a response/approval will be received prior to January 3, 1996. Accordingly, the Gipsons hereby request an extension of time for an additional 180 days in which to comply with the conditions of approval for their subdivision exemption. Sincerely, Billie G. Burchfield DEC 1 i 1995 G, AFIELD coutrTY • • This application for exemption was previously approved by the Board of County Commissioners on January 3, 1995. We had a number of difficulties thereafter with attempts to obtain separate well permits and late register our well. By the time we contacted an attorney to straighten out the well permit for the exemption it had become too late to get approval for expanded use back before our conditional approval of exemption expired. We are now advised by counsel that the enclosed application for expansion of our well to include one additional household only use should be approved. We will accept conditions of approval requiring us to establish a pipeline easement and well sharing agreement. REBAR ASIX CAP /27613 SET REBAR W/PLASTC CAP P.L.S. /27613 • 1736.39' RECORD N64'3315.

The Gipsons have late registered this well in November of 1995 for 1 single family dwelling, livestock watering, fire protection and irrigation of one acre of lawn/garden. This well has historically provided water, via pipeline, to a second household on the Gipson property since the late 1970's. The second household is shown as "cabin" on the attached surveyed drawing. The Cabin is not presently occupied but was occupied 1980-81 by the Paines, 1982-84 by the Gipsons son and his family, and in 1987-88 by the Gipsons themselves during a time when the main house had been leased. The second household has also been used for guest quarters periodically since constructed. See enclosed affidavits. The Gipsons are seeking to gain approval for expanded use of this well permit for one additional single family dwelling, household use only. In addition to the historical use in fact, the Gipson have filed for a subdivision exemption to divide their property into two parcels, as shown on the attached drawing. The Gipsons meet the criteria set forth in Policy Memorandum 93-5. 1) See Deed to the property prior to June 1, 1972, with regard to the first condition; 2) Same as above on second condition; 3 See well permit approval and completion report regarding the third condition; Dec. 24, 1995 Ltr - Deathredge Page Two 4) The only expansion requested is for ordinary household purposes inside one single family dwelling, and return flows are to the same stream system in which the well is located; 5) Waster water disposal is by individual septic systems of the non -evaporative type. The Gipson have no objection to Permit Conditions limiting use of the well to historic pre -May 8, 1972 uses plus the additional use for ordinary household purposes inside one additional single family dwelling and only two single family dwellings are served by this well; and, that "No additional well permits will be issued under C.R.S. 37-92-602, as the water supply for any new lots created from the subject property by either subdivision or exemption, as long as this permit is in force.

Total single family dwellings served may not exceed three and irrigated garden and lawn may not exceed 1 acre. d.

YOURS Donald L. del Donald L. del District Cheif • • REASONS FOR REQUESTING SUB DIVISION We, Paul and Lydia Gipson were married in 1968 and purchased this home in 1971. We have spent most of our married life here, sharing with the old-timers in the community at least once each year for the last 18 years by hosting an "old timer's community picnic". We would like to live out as many of the remaining years of our lives on this property as possible. However, due to our ages and health( Paul's emphazema and Lydia's arthritis; it is becoming increasingly more difficult to continue maintaining our home as well as we would like to. Both, financially and physically. It is our hope thati-y building a smaller, more convenient home on level ground, we can continue here for a lengthier time. One of our daughters has indicated a desire to purchase pgrtt_ of our land(the house we are now living in and approx. 6 to 7 acres.) By doing this we will have help and the home will remain :Ln our family. I, Lydia Dwire Gipson, was born and raised in the community and we have raised five children here. We want so much to continue our life here on East Elk Creek. Also, we understand that this is a one-time thing. I''' we sub -divide now, only splitting this into two parcels, there should be no chance of it ever being split into smaller parcels in the future, ruining this beautiful valley. Respectfully The following application for exemption has been completed to the best of our ability. Paul T. and Lydia Gipson 1520 Rd. 241 New Castle, Co. 81647 Phone 984-3245 The current well located on the propeded 5.85 ac:es plot has been in use for domestic use since 1963, We were recently able to change this permit from "stock" to in house use, irrigation, etc. We have had plentiful water. In order for us to receive a loan some time recently, it was required that we have both the well and current septic system inspected. High Country engeneering was hired to do this. If necessary, ae can get a report from them. We are proposing the same type sewage disposal on the 4.21 acre plot. This being septic tank with leach field. I. The deed enclosed was recorded on September 1971, which precedes The January 1, 1973 requirement. We have completed the necessary work, culvert etc, needed for access from County Rd. 241. We have had our land surveyed by Scarrow and Walker and ,311 ditches, drain ditches, storm ditch, etc. is properly shown. To our knowledge the only thing left to consider :.s lega]. water for the 4.21 acre plot. We are in the process of aquiring proof of approval for expanded use of our existing well.

Because it would not be feasible to excavate and examine the existing system or independently confirm prior percolation tests, the on-site observation made by High Country Engineering, Inc. (HCE) for the I.S.D.S. consisted only of a visual review of the ground surface in the vicinity of the I.S.D.S. The domestic water is tested only for bacteria by a qualified laboratory and HCE takes no responsibility for the laboratory test results. Unless noted, no otF er observations or tests were made and no other samples were taken. The above -referenced I.S.D.S. was reviewed to the extent that HCE researched a septic system permit, if one was issued, and made the on-site observation. A water sample was taken on September 21, 1994. The following has been determined: Enclosed is a copy of the test results from the Colorado State Health Laboratory dated September 22, 1994 indicating that the sampled water does meet the current Colorado State Requirements of the Standard Bacteriological Water Test. Garfield County first started requiring septic system permits in approximately 1974. It is believed that this residence was constructed prior to that date. Therefore, because the residence was constructed prior to the Cminty requiring an engineered septic system, the septic system is classified "pre-existing, non- conforming" and should renovation become necessary, conformance with existing Colorado State and Garfield County regulations will he required. However, no visible evidence of failure of the I.S.D.S. serving this dwelling was evident at the time of the on-site observation, and the system appears to he functioning adequately. 923 Cooper Avenue • Glenwood Springs, CO 81601 Telephone: 303-945-8676 • FAX: 303-945-2555 • • Rebecca - Helmick September 28, 1994 Page two High Country Engineering, Inc. does not guarantee or take any responsibility, nor does it imply the proper installation and/or functioning, at any time, of the I.S.D.S., or that the I.S.D.S. may at some time, pollute any water supplies, crops, livestock, or persons.
