1 LONG SUBDIVISION
' SKETCH PLAN
INTRODUCTION
' The proposed Long Subdivision is located in Section 32, Township 6 South, Range 90
West. It lies approximately seven miles up County Road No. 312 (Garfield Creek Road)
from it's intersection with County Road No. 335 southwest of New Castle.
The property is bordered by Garfield Creek on the North, and County Road No. 312 on the
South. Another small creek, Belodi Creek, runs through the southwest corner of the
' property just north of the County Road. The land ranges in elevation from 6925 near the
southeast corner to 6815 near the northwest corner.
' Alfalfa fields comprise approximately twenty one acres in the center of the property, and
drain towards the creeks on both sides at grades of six to eight percent. The banks of
both creeks are heavily vegetated with gambel oak and choke cherry, providing excellent
' natural screening from adjoining properties.
Two residences are currently located on the property, one near the southwest corner by
Belodi Creek and one near the northwest corner by Garfield Creek. Both are located near
the edge of the trees, thus leaving the center of the property open for haying operations.
This property is currently zoned Agricultural/Residential /Rural Density, a zoning which
' allows a minimum lot size of two acres. This proposal would split a thirty-seven acre
parcel into three lots. The existing mobile home on the property would be located on a
parcel of 9.5 acres, the existing house would be located on a parcel of 21.2 acres, and
one additional building site on a 5.0 acre parcel would be created.
1
ACCESS
Access to this property is via Garfield County Road 312, Garfield Creek Road, from it's
1 intersection with Garfield County Road 335 southwest of Apple Tree Mobile Home Park.
This road is a two-lane paved roadway which turns into a gravel road as you near the
applicants property. The Garfield County Road and Bridge department maintains the road
1 to a point just beyond this property. Garfield Creek Road provides access to a narrow
valley where the land use pattern is primarily agricultural and low density residential.
Traffic counts are relatively low, but increase during hunting season as a number of
' hunters use the road for access to the Bureau of Land Management lands located at the
edges of the agricultural properties. Occupants of both of the existing homes on this
1 1
property currently use County Road 312 as they travel to and from their homes as they
have for a number of years. It is not expected that the addition of one building site on this
property will significantly impact the amount of traffic which currently travels on this road.
UTILITIES
Domestic and Irrigation Water
Domestic water for the two existing residences is currently provided by an existing well
located near the house. Water for the mobile home is provided by a one and one-quarter
inch water line which runs from the well to the house and to the mobile home.
This well is approved as an exempt well by Well Permit #168645 which was issued by
the Division of Water Resources on February 24, 1993. The use of ground water from
this well is limited to ordinary household purposes inside three (3) single family dwellings,
fire protection, the watering of poultry, domestic animals and livestock on a farm or ranch,
and the irrigation of not over one (1) acre of home gardens and lawns. The maximum
pumping rate is 15 gallons per minute. Return flow from the use of the well must be
through an individual waste water disposal system which returns the water to the stream
system in which the well is located.
The proposed building site would be provided with domestic water under the parameters
established by issuance of this well permit.
Irrigation water for the property is provided by a water right in the Williams #2 Ditch out
of Garfield Creek. The applicant owns a right of 74.52 cfs out of priority No. 172H, and
currently uses this water to irrigate the existing alfalfa fields on the property. It is Mr.
Long's intent to maintain the existing alfalfa fields as they exist on all three lots through
a maintenance agreement between the owners of all three lots. The existing irrigation
rights would continue to be used very much as they are today.
Wastewater Treatment
The two existing residences are served by individual sewage disposal systems which have
been in place since the homes were built. Both systems have been working reliably during
that time. The soil in the area of the new home site is expected to have a somewhat
higher clay content than the areas where the existing systems are located. When a
building site is selected, percolation tests will be done to determine the permeability of the
soil. If necessary, an engineered system will be designed to dispose of the wastewater
at the new building site.
Electric Service
Electric service for this area is currently provided by Holy Cross Electric Association. Two
overhead electric lines are currently located on the property. One crosses the southwest
corner of the property and then runs easterly along the County Road near the southern
2
boundary. The other is located near the northwest corner of the property and serves the
existing mobile home and adjoining property to the North. Service to the new building site
will be extended from the existing overhead line near the southerly boundary of the
property.
Telephone Service
Telephone service for this area is currently provided by U.S. West. Service for the new
lot will be extended from existing lines which are located along the County Road on the
south side of the property.
Natural Gas
Natural gas is not available in this area at this time, and there are no plans for extending
service in the near future. Homeowners in this subdivision can choose to use propane to
heat their homes through individual agreements with the gas company or they can choose
to have all electric service in their homes.
Cable Television Service
TCI Cablevision provides cable service to residents in the New Castle area, but at this time
does not have cable service in this area. The cost of extending cable for the limited
residential use on Garfield Creek would be prohibitive, so it is unlikely that cable television
service will be made available to this subdivision. However, new technology such as
Primestar satellite systems are available at a relatively low cost. This will probably be the
option of choice for this subdivision.
SOILS
Four different soils types can be found on this property. The large area within the irrigated
hayfields consists of Cimarron loam. This soil formed in alluvium derived from basalt.
Typically the surface layer is dark grayish brown loam for about four inches, with a deeper
layer of grayish brown silty clay loam underneath. The substratum is dark gray silty clay
to a depth of 60 inches.
Permeability in this soil is slow and available water capacity is high. Subsurface runoff
is medium, with a moderate erosion hazard. The native vegetation is rnainly Idaho fescue,
bromes, wheatgrasses and sagebrush which is used for limited grazing and wildlife habitat.
Development on this soil is limited by the high clay content, slow permeability, and the
high shrink -swell potential. These problems can be overcome, however, through the use
of properly designed foundations and septic absorption field.
Belodi Creek flows through an area of Detra fine sandy loam. This is a deep well drained
soil normally located on mountainsides. The surface is typically brown fine sandy loam
3
about 12 inches thick with an underlying layer of reddish brown sandy clay loam about
21 inches thick. The substratum is yellowish red sandy clay loam.
Permeability of this soil is moderate and available water capacity is moderate. The soil
is used mainly for grazing and wildlife habitat with a native vegetation consisting of
needlegrasses, fescues and sagebrush.
Development on this soil is limited by slope, low strength and depth to bedrock, all of
which can be overcome by proper design techniques.
A small portion of the property south of Garfield Creek Road is located in an area of Jerry
loam. This soil is formed in alluvium derived from sandstone, shale and basalt. It is
typically dark grayish brown on the surface with a yellowish brown and light brown cobbly
clay loam about 37 inches thick underneath. The substratum is light brown cobbly clay
to a depth of 60 inches.
Permeability is slow, and available water capacity is high. Surface runoff is slow, and
erosion hazard is moderate. The native vegetation consists mainly of Gambel Oak,
bromes, and elk sedge. It provides habitat for deer, elk, blue grouse, gray squirrel and wild
turkeys.
Development is limited by high shrink -swell potential, steep slopes, and low strength.
Building sites and roads must be provided with good drainage as this soil slumps when
saturated or deeply cut.
Nihil) channery loam lies in the area around Garfield Creek. This soil is gently sloping on
alluvial fans and the sides of valleys. It formed in alluvium derived from Green River shale
and sandstone. Typically the surface layer is light grey and very pale brown channery
loam about 14 inches thick, and the lower part is very pale brown extremely channery
sandy loam and extremely channery loam to a depth of 60 inches.
Permeability if moderately rapid, and available water capacity is low. The native
vegetation on this soil is mainly wheatgrass, needleandthread and sagebrush. Mule deer,
cottontail rabbit, chukar, and squirrel find habitat on this soil.
This soil has few limitations for community development.
DRAINAGE
This property is bordered on the north by Garfield Creek. Another small stream, Belodi
Creek, runs through the southwesterly corner of the property. Both streams run from
south to north, and continue in a northwesterly direction to their confluence approximately
one-quarter mile northwest of this property. A large ridge located southeast of this
property directs the drainage towards these two drainages on either side. Storm water
which reaches this property will flow in a northwesterly direction across the gently sloping
hayfields towards the confluence of the two creeks beyond the northwest corner of this
4
property. No development will occur immediately adjacent: to the creeks, so their natural
courses will continue undisturbed. The new building site is located ori the highest portion
of the property, well above and away from Garfield Creek.
IMPACTS
This subdivision is expected to have a minimal impact on the surrounding area. Two of
the Tots already have existing homes, so any impact will be associated with the addition
of one more building site. As previously discussed, the areas along the streams are
heavily vegetated, screening this property from adjoining properties. The natural condition
of the stream will be protected because the building site has been located well away from
the stream bank. Because the site has been located near the corner of the existing alfalfa
field and near County Road 312, it will be seen from the road. Flowever, since this
property lies near the end of the maintained portion of the road, few people will be
affected. Access off the County Road can be easily achieved without the need for large
cuts or fills, and no significant earthwork will be necessary for the construction of a home
so impacts to the terrain will be minimal. The addition of one residence on this property
will not have significant impact on the traffic on County Road No. 312.
In summary, the impact of this proposed subdivision is minimal.
RADIATION HAZARD
This property has been used historically for agricultural uses since it was patented in
1895. There is no known history of any activity which might have created a radiation
hazard on this property.

16—Cimarron loam, 2 to 12 percent slopes. This
Ideep, well drained, nearly level to undulating soil is in
narrow mountain valleys and drainageways. Elevation
ranges from 7,500 to 9,000 feet. This soil formed in
Ialluvium derived from basalt. The average annual precipi-
tation is about 18 inches, the average annual air tem-
perature is 39 degrees F, and the frost -free period is Tess
than 75 days.
ITypically, the surface layer is dark grayish brown loam
about 4 inches thick. The subsoil is grayish brown silty
clay loam and silty clay about 29 inches thick. The sub-
stratum is dark gray silty clay to a depth of 60 inches.
IIncluded with this soil in mapping are small areas of
Cochetopa and Jerry soils on small hilly undulations
within the drainageways. Slopes are more than 12 per-
cent. These areas make up 5 to 10 percent of the map
I unit.
Permeability is slow, and available water capacity is
high. Effective rooting depth is about 60 inches or more.
IPrimary roots that reach below a depth of 16 inches
follow cracks in the soil. Surface runoff is medium, and
the erosion hazard is moderate.
This soil is used mainly for limited grazing and wildlife
I
habitat.
The native vegetation on this soil is mainly Idaho
fescue, bromes, wheatgrasses, and sagebrush.
I
When range condition deteriorates, forbs and shrubs
increase. When the range is in poor condition, undesira-
ble weeds and annual plants are numerous. Reducing
brush improves the range. Properly managing grazing
,maintains and improves range condition. Seeding im-
roves range in poor condition. Preparing a seedbed and
drilling the seed are good practices. Mountain or smooth
trome, intermediate wheatgrass, and pubescent wheat-
rass are suitable for seeding.
Elk, deer, black bear, and grouse find habitat on this
soil.
IUse of this soil for community development, for sani-
ary facilities, and as a source of construction material is
limited by the high clay content, which causes a high
Ehrink-swell potential, slow permeability, and low
trength. Special designs for foundations and septic tank
bsorption fields overcome these problems.
This soil is in capability subclass Vle, nonirrigated.

23—Detra fine :sandy loam, 12 to 25 percent
slopes. This deep, well drained, strongly sloping to mod-
erately steep soil is on mountainsides. Elevation ranges
from 6,500 to 8,000 feet. This soil formed in residuum
from red -bed shale and sandstone. The average annual
precipitation is about 16 inches, the average annual air
temperature is about 44 degrees F, and the frost -free
period is about 85 days.
Typically, the surface layer is brown fine sandy loam
about 12 inches thick. The subsoil is reddish brown
sandy clay loam about 21 inches thick. The substratum
is yellowish red sandy clay loam. Weathered red sand-
stone and shale is at a depth of 57 inches.
Included with this soil in mapping are small areas of
Morval, Ansari, and Arle soils on the steeper parts of the
landscape. They make up about 5 to 15 percent of the
map unit.
Permeability is moderate, and available water capacity
is moderate. Effective rooting depth is 40 to 60 inches.
Surface runoff is slow, and the erosion hazard is slight.
This soil is used mainly for grazing and wildlife habitat.
The native vegetation on this soil is mainly needle -
grasses, fescues, 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 improves the range. Seeding im-
proves range in poor condition if slope is not so steep
that drilling is impossible. Preparing a seedbed and drill-
ing the seed are good practices. Mountain or smooth
brome, intermediate wheatgrass, and pubescent wheat -
grass are suitable for seeding.
Elk, deer, and grouse find habitat on this soil.
Use of this soil for community development, for sani-
tary facilities, and as a source of construction material is
limited by slope, low strength, and depth to bedrock.
Special design and engineering practices overcome
many of these limitations.
This soil is in capability subclass Vle, nonirrigated.
39—Jerry loam, 12 to 50 percent slopes. This deep,
well drained, strongly sloping to steep soil is on moun-
tainsides. Elevation ranges from 7,000 to 9,500 feet. This
soil formed in alluvium derived from sandstone, shale,
and basalt. The average annual precipitation is about 20
inches, the average annual air temperature is about 41
degrees F, and the average frost -free period is Tess than
75 days.
Typically, the surface layer is dark grayish brown loam
about 3 inches thick. The subsoil is yellowish brown and
light brown cobbly clay loam about 37 inches thick. The
substratum is light brown cobbly clay to a depth of 60
inches.
Included with this soil in mapping are small areas of
Tanna and Dollard soils at lower elevations. These areas
make up 5 to 10 percent of the map unit.
Permeability is slow, and available water capacity is
high. Effective rooting depth is 60 inches or more. Sur-
face runoff is slow, and the erosion hazard is moderate.
This soil is used mainly for limited grazing and wildlife
habitat.
The native vegetation on this soil is mainly Gambel
oak, bromes, and elk sedge.
When range is in poor condition, Kentucky bluegrass,
undesirable weeds, and annual plants are numerous.
Properly managing grazing maintains and improves
range condition.
Mule deer, elk, blue grouse, gray squirrel, and wild
turkey find habitat on these soils.
Community development is limited by high shrink -swell
potential, steep slopes, and low strength. Building sites
and roads need good drainage. This soil slumps when
saturated or if cut deep.
This soil is in capability subclass Vile, nonirrigated.
46—Nihill channery loam, 1 to 6 percent slopes.
This deep, well drained, nearly level to gently sloping soil
is on alluvial fans and sides of valleys. Elevation ranges
from 5,000 to 6,500 feet. The soil formed in alluvium
derived from Green River shale and sandstone. The
average annual precipitation is about 13 inches, the
average annual air temperature is about 48 degrees F,
and the average frcst-free period is about 125 days.
Typically, the surface layer is Tight gray and very pale
brown channery loam about 11 inches thick. The upper
part of the underlying material is very pale brown very
channery loam about 14 inches thick, and the lower part
is very pale brown extremely channery sandy loam and
extremely channery loam to a depth of 60 inches.
Included with this soil in mapping are small areas of
Arvada and Ildefonso soils. The Arvada soils are nearly
level, and Ildefonso soils are steeper. These areas make
up 10 to 15 percent of the map unit.
Permeability is moderately rapid, and available water
capacity is low. Effective rooting depth is 60 inches.
Surface runoff is slow, and the erosion hazard is moder-
ate.
This soil is used mainly for grazing and wildlife habitat.
Some small areas are in irrigated hay and pasture.
This soil is usually irrigated by flooding. Sprinklers are
also suitable. Since this soil is droughty, frequent irriga-
tion is needed to grow hay or pasture. Drop structures in
irrigation ditches prevent ditch erosion. Keeping the irri-
gation run short prevents too deep percolation.
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
managing grazing maintains and improves range condi-
tion. Reducing brush improves the range. Seeding im-
proves range in poor condition. Crested wheatgrass,
western wheatgrass, and Russian wildrye are suitable for
seeding. Preparing a seedbed and drilling the seed are
good practices.
Mule deer, cottontail rabbit, chukar, and squirrel find
habitat on this soil.
This soil has few limitations for community develop-
ment. Community sewage facilities will be needed if pop-
ulation density increases.
This soil is in capability subclasses IVe, irrigated, and
Vle, nonirrigated.
