EXEMPTION APPLICABILITY Pursuant to section 8:50 of the Subdivision Regulations, the Board of County Commissioners has the discretionary power to exempt a division of land from the definition of subdivision and, thereby, from the procedure in these Regulations, provided the Board of County Commissioners determines that such exemption will not impair or defeat the stated purpose of the Subdivision Regulations nor be detrimental to the general public welfare. The Board has determined that leases, easements and other similar interests in Garfield County owned property, land for oil and gas facilities, and an accessory dwelling unit or two family dwelling that are subject to leasehold interest only and complying with the requirements of the Garfield County Zoning Resolution, are exempt from these regulations. A. No more than a total of four (4) lots, parcels, interests or dwelling units will be created from any parcel, as that parcel was described in the records of the Garfield County Clerk and Recorder's Office on January 1, 1973. In order to qualify for exemption, the parcel as it existed on January 1, 1973, must have been 35 acres or greater in size at the time and not a part of a recorded subdivision; however, any parcel to be divided by exemption that is split by a public right-of-way (State or Federal highway, County road or railroad), preventing joint use of the proposed tracts, and the division occurs along the public right- of-way, such parcels thereby created may, at the discretion of the Board, not be considered to have been created by exemption with regard to the four (4) lot, parcel, interest or dwelling unit limitation otherwise applicable. For the purposes of definition, all tracts of land 35 acres or greater in size, created after January 1, 1973 will count as parcels of land created by exemption since January 1, 1973. B. All Garfield County zoning requirements will be met. C. All lots created will have legal access to a public right-of-way and any necessary access easements have been obtained or are in the process of being obtained. D. Provision has been made for an adequate source of water in terms of the legal and physical quality, quantity and dependability, and a suitable type of sewage disposal to serve each proposed lot. Proof of a legal supply shall be an approved substitute water supply plan contract; augmentation plan; an approved well permit; legally adjudicated domestic water source or a contract for a permanent legal supply of domestic water to be hauled from an outside site for a cistern. Proof of the physical supply from a well for the public meeting, may be documentation from the Division of Water Resources that demonstrates that there are wells within a 1/4 mile of the site producing at least five (5) gallons/m inute. Prior to the signing of a plat, all physical water supplies using a well shall demonstrate the following: 1) That a four (4) hour pump test be performed on the well to be used. 2) A well completion report demonstrating the depth of the well, the characteristics of the aquifer and the static water level; 3) The results of the four (4) hour pump test indicating the pumping rate in gallons per minute and information showing draw down and recharge; 3 4) A written opinion of the person conducting the well test that this well should be adequate to supply water to the number of proposed lots; 5) An assumption of an average or no less than 3.5 people per dwelling unit, using 100 gallons of water per person, per day; 6) If the well is to be shared, a legal, well sharing agreement which discusses all easements and costs associated with the operation and maintenance of the system and who will be responsible for paying these costs and how assessments will be made for these costs. 7) The water quality is tested by an approved testing laboratory and meet State guidelines concerning bacteria and nitrates. For water supplies based on the use of cistern, the tank shall be a minimum of 1000 gallons. E. Method of sewage disposal, and a letter of approval of the fire protection plan from the appropriate fire district. F. All State and local environmental health and safety requirements have been met or are in the process of being met. G. Provision has been made for any required road or storm drainage improvements. H. Fire protection has been approved by the appropriate fire district. I. Any necessary drainage, irrigation or utility easements have been obtained or are in the process of being obtained. J. All applicable taxes and special assessments have been paid. III.

RBE/jc Enclosure cc: Stephen and Helen Low Sincerely, s75 Robert B. Emerson BASALT WATER CONSERVANCY DISTRICT WATER ALLOTMENT CONTRACT NO. 505 Pursuant to C.R.S. 1973, 37-45-131 SRA Stephen Low and Helen C. Low (hereinafter "Applicants") have applied to the Basalt Water Conservancy District (hereinafter the "District"), a political subdivision of the State of Colorado, organized pursuant to and existing by virtue of Colorado Revised Statutes, 1973, 37-45-101, et seq., for an allotment Contract for beneficial use of water rights owned, leased, or hereafter acquired by the District. By execution of this Contract, Applicants agree to the following terms and conditions and those certain terms and conditions set forth in the attached Order, which is fully incorporated as a part of this Contract: 1. QUANTITY: In consideration of the covenants and conditions herein contained, Applicants shall be entitled to receive and apply to beneficial use 0.033 cubic feet of water per second from the District's direct flow rights and 0.2 acre feet per year of storage or other augmentation water owned or controlled by the District. Applicants shall restrict actual diversions and consumptive use under this Contract to these amounts. The Contract amount is based on the water requirements table attached hereto as Exhibit B. Any increase or change in the water requirements to be served by the District will require an amendment to the subject Contract. 2. SOURCE OF ALLOTTED WATER: Water rights allotted pursuant to this Contract shall be from the District's water rights decreed to the Basalt Conduit, Landis Canal, Stockman's Ditch Extension, Troy and Edith Ditch, Robinson Ditch, or other water rights hereafter acquired by the District, including the District's right to receive storage water from Ruedi Reservoir and Green Mountain Reservoir. The District shall have the right to designate the water right or Decree of the District from which the Applicants' allotted rights shall be obtained. The Applicants' use of any of the District's water rights shall be subject to any and all terms and conditions imposed by the Water Court on the use of the District's said rights. Exchange or augmentation releases made from the District's storage rights in Ruedi or Green Mountain Reservoirs or other works and facilities of the District shall be delivered to the Applicants at the outlet works of said storage facility and release of water at such outlet works shall constitute full performance of the District's delivery obligation. Delivery of water from the District's storage rights in Ruedi or Green Mountain Reservoir shall be subject to the District's lease contract with the United States Bureau of Reclamation and any rules and regulations promulgated pursuant thereto. Releases from other facilities available to the District shall be subject to the contracts, laws, rules, and regulations governing releases therefrom. Furthermore, the District hereby expressly reserves the right to store water and to make exchange releases from structures that may be built or controlled by the District in the future, so long as the water service to the Applicants pursuant to this agreement is not impaired by said action. 1 3. PURPOSE AND LOCATION OF USE: Applicants will use the water rights allotted pursuant to this Contract for beneficial purposes by diversion at Applicants' point of diversion under the Districts direct flow water rights and/or for use by augmentation or exchange. Applicants will use the water allotted by the District within or through facilities or upon lands owned, operated, or served by Applicants, which lands are described on Exhibit A attached hereto; provided that the location and purpose of Applicants' use of said water shall be legally recognized and permitted by the applicable governmental authority having jurisdiction over the property served. Applicants' contemplated usage for the water allotted hereunder is for the following use or uses: X Domestic/Municipal Industrial Commercial Agricultural Other It is acknowledged that certain locations within the District may not be susceptible to service solely by the District's water rights allotted hereunder or the District's said water rights may not satisfy Applicants' needs and purposes. To the extent that service cannot be achieved by use of the District's allotted water rights, or in the event said service is inadequate, Applicants may utilise such other water rights, by way of supplementing the District's water rights, or otherwise, as is necessary to assure water service sufficiently reliable for Applicants' intended purpose or purposes. All lands, facilities and areas served by water rights allotted hereunder shall be situated within the boundaries of the District. Any quantity of the Applicants' allocation not delivered to or used by Applicants by the end of each water year shall revert to the water supplies of the District. Such reversion shall not entitle Applicants to any refund of payment made for such water. Water service provided by the District shall be limited to the amount of water available in priority at the original point of diversion of the Districts applicable water right and neither the District, nor those entitled to utilize the District's decrees, may call on any greater amount at new or alternate points of diversion. The District shall request the Colorado State Engineer to estimate any conveyance losses between the original point and any alternate point and such estimate shall be deducted from this amount in each case. The District, or anyone using the Districts decrees, may call on any additional sources of supply that may be available at an alternate point of diversion, but not at the original point of diversion, only as against water rights which are junior to the date of application for the alternate point of diversion. In the event the Applicants intend to institute any legal proceedings for the approval of an augmentation plan and/or any change to an alternate point of diversion of the District's water right to allow the Applicants to utilise the water allotted hereunder, the Applicants shall give the District written notice of such intent. In the event the Applicants develop and adjudicate an alternate point of diversion and/or an augmentation plan to 2 utilize the water allotted hereunder, Applicants shall not be obligated to bear or defray any legal or engineering expense of the District incurred by the District for the purpose of developing and adjudicating a plan of augmentation for the District. In any event, the District shall have the right to approve the Applicants' application for change of water right, and/or augmentation plan or other water supply plan involving the District's rights, and the Applicants shall provide the District copies of such application and of all pleadings and other papers filed with the Water Court in the adjudication thereof. The District reserves the exclusive right to review and approve any conditions which maybe attached to judicial approval of Applicants' use of the District's water rights allotted hereunder. Applicants agree to defray any out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the District in connection with the allotment of water rights hereunder, including, but not limited to, reimbursement of legal and engineering costs incurred in connection with any water rights adjudication necessary to allow Applicants' use of such allotted water rights; provided, however, in the event any such adjudication involves more of the District's water rights than are allotted pursuant to this Contract, Applicants shall bear only a pro -rata portion of such expenses. Applicants shall be solely responsible for providing the structures, works and facilities, if any, necessary to utilize the District's water rights allotted hereunder for Applicants' beneficial use. 4. PAYMENT: Applicants shall pay annually for the water service described herein at a price to be fixed annually by the Board of Directors of the District for such service. Payment of the annual fee shall be made, in full, within fifteen (15) days after the date of a notice from the District that the payment is due. Said notice will advise the Applicants, among other things, of the water delivery year to which the payment shall apply and the price which is applicable to that year. If a payment is not made by the due date, a late fee of $50 (or such other amount as the Board may set from time to time) will be assessed and final written notice of the delinquent account and late fee assessment will be sent by the District to the Applicants at Applicants' address set forth below. If payment is not made within thirty (30) days after said final written notice, the District may, at its option, elect to terminate all of the Applicants' right, title, or interest under this Contract, in which event the water right allotted hereunder may be transferred, leased or otherwise disposed of by the District at the discretion of its Board of Directors. In the event water deliveries hereunder are made by or pursuant to agreement with some other person, corporation, quasi -municipal entity, or governmental entity, and in the event the Applicants fail to make payments as required hereunder, the District may, at its sole option and request, authorize said person or entity to curtail the Applicants' water service pursuant to this Contract, and in such event neither the District nor such persons or entity shall be liable for such curtailment. 5. APPROPRIATION OF FUNDS: The Applicants agree that so long as this Contract is valid and in force, Applicants will budget and appropriate from such sources 3 of revenues as may be legally available to the Applicants the funds necessary to make the annual payments in advance of water delivery pursuant to this Contract. The Applicants will hold harmless the District and any person or entity involved in the delivery of water pursuant to this Contract, for discontinuance in service due to the failure of Applicants to maintain the payments herein required on a current basis. 6. BENEFIT OF CONTRACT: The water right allotted hereunder shall be beneficially used for the purposes and in the manner specified herein and this Contract is for the exclusive benefit of the Applicants and shall not inure to the benefit of any successor, assign, or lessee of said Applicants without the prior written approval of the Board of Directors of the District. Upon the sale of the real property to which this Contract pertains, Applicants have a duty to make the buyer aware of this Contract and the need to assign the Contract to the buyer. However, prior written approval of the Board of Directors of the District is required before the assignment is effective. Payment of an assignment fee in an amount determined by the Board shall be required as a prerequisite to approval of the assignment. In the event the water right allotted hereunder is to be used for the benefit of land which is now or will hereafter be subdivided or otherwise held or owned in separate ownership interest, the Applicants may assign the Applicants' rights hereunder only to a homeowners association, water district, water and sanitation district or other special district, or other entity properly organized and existing under and by virtue of the laws of the State of Colorado, and then only if such association, entity or special district establishes to the satisfaction of the Basalt Water Conservancy District that it has the ability and authority to assure its performance of the Applicants' obligations under this Contract. In no event shall the owner of a portion, but less than all, of the Applicants' property to be served under this Contract have any rights hereunder, except as such rights may exist through a homeowners association or special district as above provided. Any assignment of the Applicants' rights under this Contract shall be subject to and must comply with such requirements as the District has adopted or may hereafter adopt regarding assignment of Contract rights and the assumption of Contract obligations by assignees and successors, provided that such requirements shall uniformly apply to all allot - tees receiving District service. The restrictions on assignment as herein contained shall not preclude the District from holding the Applicants, or any successor to the Applicants, responsible for the performance of all or any part of the Applicants' covenants and agreements herein contained. 7. OTHER RULES: Applicants' rights under this Contract shall be subject to the Water Service Plan as adopted by the District and amended from time to time; provided that such Water Service Plan shall apply uniformly throughout the District among water users receiving the same service from the District. Applicants shall also be bound by all 4 applicable law, including, for example, the provisions of the Water Conservancy Act of the State of Colorado, the Rules and Regulations of the Board of Directors of the District, the plumbing advisory, water conservation, and staged curtailment regulations, if any, applicable within the County in which the water allotted hereunder is to be used, together with all amendments of and supplements to any of the foregoing. 8. CURTAILMENT OF USE: The water service provided hereunder is expressly subject to the provisions of that certain Stipulation in Case No. 81CW253 on file in the District Court in Water Division 5 of the State of Colorado, which Stipulation provides, in part, for the possible curtailment of out -of -house municipal and domestic water demands upon the occurrence of certain events and upon the District giving notice of such curtailment, all as more fully set forth in said Stipulation. 9. OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE AGREEMENT: Applicants shall enter into an "Operation and Maintenance Agreement" with the District if and when the Board of Directors finds and determines that such an agreement is required by reason of additional or special services requested by the Applicants and provided by the District or by reason of the delivery or use of water by the Applicants for more than one of the classes of service which are defined in the Rules and Regulations of the Board of Directors of said District. Said agreement may contain, but not be limited to, provision for water delivery at times or by means not provided within the terms of standard allotment contracts of the District and additional annual monetary consideration for extension of District services and for additional administration, operation and maintenance costs, or for other costs to the District which may arise through services made available to the Applicants. 10. CHANGE OF USE: The District reserves the exclusive right to review and approve or disapprove any proposed change in use of the water right allotted hereunder. Any use other than that set forth herein or any lease or sale of the water or water rights allotted hereunder without the prior written approval of the District shall be deemed to be a material breach of this Contract. 11. PRIOR RESOLUTION: The water service provided hereunder is expressly subject to that certain Resolution passed by the Board of Directors of the District on September 25, 1979, and all amendments thereto, as the same exists upon the date of this application and allotment Contract. 12. NO FEE TITLE: It is understood and agreed that nothing herein shall give the Applicants any equitable or legal fee title interest or ownership in or to any of the water or water rights of the District, but that Applicants are entitled to the right to use the water right allotted hereunder, subject to the limitations, obligations and conditions of this Contract. 5 13. COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 404 OF THE CLEAN WATER ACT. Applicants shall comply with Section 404 of the Clean Water Act and consult with the Army Corps of Engineers to complete any Section 404 compliance that may be required as a result of the construction of any facilities necessary to use contract water. 14. CONSERVATION PRACTICES: Applicants shall implement and use com- monly accepted conservation practices with respect to the water and water rights allotted hereunder and shall be bound by any conservation plan hereafter adopted by the District, as the same may be amended from time to time. 15. WELL PERMIT: If Applicants intend to divert through a well, then Applicants must provide to District a copy of Applicants' valid well peumit before the District is obligated to deliver any water hereunder, and it is the Applicants' continuous duty to maintain a valid well permit. Applicants shall also comply with all restrictions and limitations set forth in the well permit obtained from the Colorado Division of Water Resources. Applicants must comply with the well -spacing requirements set forth in C.R.S. §37-90-137, as amended, if applicable. Compliance with said statutory well -spacing criteria shall be an express condition of the extension of service hereunder, and the District shall in no way be liable for an Applicants' failure to comply. Applicants agree to mark the well in a conspicuous place with the permit number. 16. MEASURING DEVICE OR METER: Applicants agree to provide, at their own expense, a totalizing flow meter with remote readout to continuously and accurately measure at all times all water diverted pursuant to the terms of Applicants' water right and the terms of this Contract. On or before November 15 of each year, Applicants will provide accurate readings from such device or meter (recorded on a monthly basis for the period November 1 through October 30 of each year) to District, the Division Engineer and Water Commissioner. Applicants acknowledge that failure to comply with this paragraph could result in legal action to terminate Applicants' diversion of water by the State of Colorado Division of Water Resources.

LOW CONTRACT NO. 505 Application having been made by or on behalf of Stephen Low and Helen C. Low and hearing on said Application having been duly held, it is hereby ordered that said Application be granted and that the attached Water Allotment Contract for 0.033 cubic feet of water per second from the District's direct flow rights and 0.2 acre feet per year of storage/augmentation water owned or controlled by the District is hereby approved and executed by and on behalf of the Basalt Water Conservancy District, for the beneficial use of the water allotted in the attached Contract, upon the terms, conditions and manner of payment as therein specified and subject to the following specific conditions: 1. The Applicants have acknowledged that the land to be benefitted by the attached Contract is described on Exhibit A attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference. 2. In the event of the division of the property served by this Contract into two or more parcels owned by different persons, the Applicants shall establish a Homeowners Association or other entity acceptable to the District for the ongoing payment of charges due under the approved Contract following subdivision of the property. The Applicants shall give notice to purchasers of all or any part of the subject property of the obligation of this Contract, and shall record such notice in the records of the Clerk and Recorder of Garfield County, Colorado. Applicants and their successors and assigns shall comply with all rules and regulations now existing or hereafter adopted by the District, including to enforce payment of charges due under the approved Contract by present and future owners of all or any part of the real property served under this Contract. 3. Any allotment of less than 1.0 acre foot of storage water in Paragraph 1 of the attached Contract shall be deemed 1.0 acre foot for purposes of establishing the annual water service charge for such water allotment. 4. Applicants have represented to the District that the proposed use of the land to be benefitted by the water allotted hereunder has been approved by the applicable governmental authorities having jurisdiction over such land use and by executing the attached water allotment contract warrants to the District that the lot or parcel to be benefitted hereunder is legally subdivided. 5. Any well permits issued on the basis of this Allotment Contract shall be applied for and issued in the name of the Applicants. 6. By acceptance of this Contract, Applicants acknowledge that within two years of the date hereof or such later date as the District may approve, the Applicants shall file with the Water Court of Water Division No. 5 a water rights plan of augmentation for -1- utilization of water allotted hereunder at the location and for the purposes hereinabove set forth, or the Applicants' water allotment as provided in this Contract may be included in a water rights plan of augmentation to be filed by the District with the expenses thereof to be shared prorata by the Contract holders included in such plan; provided that inclusion of the Applicants' water allotment in the District's plan of augmentation shall be at the District's sole discretion. In the event the District includes the Applicants' water allotment in the District's Application for a plan of augmentation, the Applicants acknowledge that execution of the subject contract constitutes waiver of any notice of the application for the plan for augmentation by the Water Referee or the Water Clerk under C.R.S. § 37-92-302(3)(c)(I). Applicants will provide such information and assistance, including testimony, as may be needed for judicial approval of the plan. The District makes no warranty that it will secure approval of the plan. The District may establish an augmentation plan fee to be paid by the holder of any Contract or amended Contract to be included within a plan of augmentation to be filed by the District, which fee shall be payable in advance of the inclusion of such Contract in a District plan of augmentation and may be based on the District's good faith estimate of the anticipated expense of such plan of augmentation. If such augmentation plan fee paid by a Contract holder exceeds the Contract holder's prorata portion of the actual expenses incurred by the District in completing said plan of augmentation, the District shall refund such excess to the Contract holder. Conversely, if such augmentation plan fee paid by the Contract holder does not cover the Contract holder's prorata portion of the actual expenses incurred by the District in completing said plan of augmentation, then Applicants shall pay the remaining balance of their portion of the actual expenses upon the District's providing the holder with a statement for the same. To the extent that the District is caused additional costs because of objections filed specifically due to the inclusion of Applicants' Contract in the filing, such additional costs may be charged specifically to Applicants and not shared on a prorata basis by all Contractees. 7. Any and all conditions imposed upon the release and diversion of water allotted hereunder in any water rights plan of augmentation or other water rights decree of the Water Court for Water Division No. 5 shall be incorporated herein as a condition of approval of this contract. Granting of this allotment contract does not constitute the District's representation that the Applicants will receive a well permit or water rights decree for the land to be benefitted hereby. 8. If Applicants intend to divert water through a well or wells, Applicants shall provide the District a copy of Applicants' valid well permit for each such well before the District is obligated to deliver water for the benefit of Applicants hereunder. Applicants must comply with the well -spacing requirements set forth in C.R.S. §37-90-137, as amended, if applicable.
