Applicant intends to provide a legal water supply to the Lazy Diamond A Subdivision. The development consists of 12 lots and 3 out lots. The central water supply system will obtain its water supply from the Bershneyi Spring. The total estimated water depletion for the lazy Diamond A project is 4.71 acre feet per year including reservoir evaporation. The central system will divert 5.87 acre feet for in-house domestic purposes and 2.47 acre feet for the irrigation of lawn and gardens from the municipal system. The lands that will be removed by the construction of the development will result in drying up 4.9 acres historically irrigated and result in an historic consumptive use credit of 9.77 acre feet. The applicant believes that the augmentation plan will provide adequate water to supply the Diamond A Housing Project and prevent injury to any senior downstream water rights. Attached to application is Figure 1 showing historically the land irrigated by the Lazy Diamond A Ranch. A portion of the water saved by the dry -up will be stored in the Axthelm Pond for release in the non -irrigation season to augment any downstream non -irrigation rights that may call the Bershenyi Spring out of priority. An engineering report is on file at the office of the Water Clerk and is available for review. DELANE),IC BAL9QMB, P.C. By Scott Balcomb #1376 Attorneys for Applicant P.O.
