July 19, 1978

This letter respectfully requests that the time for submission of
the Final Plat for Panorama Ranches be extended for six months
beyond its present due date of September 6, 1978, for the reasons
set forth below.
As you are aware, Preliminary Plat approval was granted subject
to the adjudication of adequate water by the District Water Court.
Immediately following Preliminary Plat approval, Ora McVey of
Mountain Drilling Company was contacted to drill the required
wells. He believed he could get a rig on the site by mid-November
but it was late January before he was able to do so.
McVey encountered only a small quantity of water after drilling
to 376 feet. The well was cased and cemented.
Meanwhile, we had contracted with X -L Drilling Company to drill
a second well. That company began drilling January 24, 1978, and
abandoned the hole nine days later after drilling 480 feet. They
cased the hole to 320 feet and pronounced it a dry hole.
We then selected a third site and contracted with McLeur Drilling
Co. of Montrose, hiring a cat to clear a road through the deep
February snows and make a well site. McLeur didn't show up to
drill.
We renewed the contract with McLeur April 19, 1978, and he moved
a rig to the site. Two months later, after sporadic ineffectual
effort, he abandoned the hole at 100 feet depth.
McVey, meanwhile, said he believed the X -L hole had water but
opined that they had "dog -legged" the hole and couldn't case
it for that reason. He went in with a cable tool in late June,
drilled inside the X -L casing, straightened out the hole, cased
it and produced what appears to be a good well. It was tested at
10 gallons per minute with a two -horse pump and Glenwood Pump
Company has installed a three -horsepower pump and is scheduled a
24-hour 25 -gallons per minute test.

If Glenwood Pump proves a sufficient quantity of water, we then
must bring in hydrologist to supervise an uninterrupted 10 -day
test to satisfy the requirements of the State Water Resources
Division. Following that, we must go to trial in the District
Water Court to prove that we are not injuring previously adjudicated
water rights in Cattle Creek.
In addition to a great deal of time and travail, we have expended
$38,614.51 in our quest for water.
It appears highly unlikely at this time that we will be able to
fulfill the requirements for Final Plat submission by September
6, 1978, due to reasons beyond our control as set forth above and,
thus, we ask that you give favorable consideration to this request
for additional. time.
Respectfully,
