BASALT WATER CONSERVANCY DISTRICT
WATER ALLOTMENT CONTRACT
Pursuant to C.R.S. 1973, 37-45-131
Thomas Levitt (hereinafter "Applicant") has 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 sem., for
an allotment Contract for beneficial use of water rights owned, leased, or hereafter acquired by
the District. By execution of this Contract, Applicant agrees to the following terms and
conditions:
1. QUANTITY: In consideration of the covenants and conditions herein contained,
Applicant shall be entitled to receive and apply to beneficial use .11 cubic feet of water per
second from the District's direct flow rights and 14.9 acre feet per year of storage water owned
or controlled by the District.
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, or other decrees or water rights hereafter acquired by the District,
including the District's contractual right to receive storage water from Ruedi Reservoir. The
District shall have the right to designate the water right or Decree of the District from which the
Applicant's allotted rights shall be obtained. The Applicant's 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 releases made from the District's storage rights in
Ruedi Reservoir or other works and facilities of the District shall be delivered to the Applicant
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 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.
3. PURPOSE AND LOCATION OF USE: Applicant will use the waters herein
granted for beneficial purposes limited to the augmentation of existing and future wells and other
water sources, within or through facilities or upon lands owned, operated, or served by
Applicant, which lands are described on Exhibit "A" attached hereto; provided that the location
and purpose of Applicant's use of said water shall be legally recognized and permitted by the
applicable governmental authority having jurisdiction over the property served. Applicant's
contemplated usage for the water allotted hereunder is for the following use or uses:
X Domestic/Municipal Industrial/Commercial Agricultural
Other
Applicant acknowledges that usage of the District's water rights as herein contemplated
shall be in lieu of or supplemental to Applicant obtaining or adjudicating, on its own. the right
to use certain waters. 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 Applicant's 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, Applicant may, utilize 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 Applicant's intended purpose or purposes. All lands, facilities and areas served by water
rights allotted hereunder shall be situated within the boundaries of the District. The District
reserves the exclusive right to review and approve any conditions which may be attached to
judicial approval of Applicant's use of the District's water rights allotted hereunder. Applicant
agrees to defray any out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the District in connection with the allot-
ment 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
Applicant's 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, Applicant shall bear only a pro -rata portion of such expenses. Applicant shall be
solely responsible for providing works and facilities, if any, necessary to utilize the District's
water rights allotted hereunder for Applicant's beneficial use.
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 District's 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
District's 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 Applicant intends to develop an augmentation plan and institute legal
proceedings for the approval of such augmentation plan to allow the Applicant to utilize the
water allotted to Applicant hereunder, the Applicant shall give the District written notice of such
intent. In the event the Applicant develops and adjudicates an augmentation plan to utilize the
water allotted hereunder, Applicant 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 Applicant's augmentation plan and the Applicant shall provide the District
copies of such plan and of all pleadings and other papers filed with the Water Court in the
adjudication thereof.
4. PAYMENT: Applicant 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 Applicant, 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, written notice thereof will
be sent by the District to the Applicant at Applicant's address set forth below. If payment is not
2
made within thirty (30) days after said written notice, the District may, at its option. elect to
terminate all of the Applicant's 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
Applicant fails to make payments as required hereunder, the District may, at its sole option and
request, authorize said person or entity to curtail the Applicant's 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 Applicant agrees that so lona as this
Contract is valid and in force, Applicant will budget and appropriate from such sources of
revenues as may be legally available to the Applicant the funds necessary to make the annual
payments in advance of water delivery pursuant to this Contract. The Applicant will hold
harmless the District and any person or entity involved in the delivery of water pursuant to this

by two (2) or more uses of the water right allotted hereunder, the Applicant may assign the
Applicant's rights hereunder only to a homeowners association, water district, water and
sanitation district or other special district properly organized and existing under and by virtue
of the laws of the State of Colorado and then only if such association 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 Applicant's obligations under this Contract. In no
event shall the owner of a portion, but less than all, of the Applicant's 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
Applicant's rights under this Contract shall be subject to and must comply with such
requirements as the District 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 allottees receiving District service. The restrictions on assignment
as herein contained shall not preclude the District from holding the Applicant, or any successor
to the Applicant, responsible for the performance of all or any part of the Applicant's covenants
and agreements herein contained.

Re: Levitt Subdivision Missouri Heights
Dear Eric:
(970) 945-5700
(970) 945-1253 Fax
To supplement our April 1, 1996 pump test letter report, we have collected additional
data that is relevant to the Levitt Trust Well #2, tested on March 20, 1996. In our
April 1, 1996 letter there was concern over the rate at which the aquifer recovered
and whether the pump test resulted in a permanent lowering of the local aquifer.
Additional data was obtained by Samuelson Pump Company on March 26, 1996 that
showed the water level in the Levitt Trust well #2 was at 254' 7". This level is 4"
above the water level measured on March 21, 1996 during the recovery portion of the
original test. This would indicate the water level was not permanently reduced by the
24 hour pumping test. We believe this early spring testing period would be the lowest
aquifer level of the season and should represent for conservative aquifer estimates.
Table 1 (attached) further refines the proposed water uses in the Levitt Subdivision.
The total number of proposed units has been reduced to 23 units.
13 single family units - Levitt Subdivision
2 guest houses - Levitt Subdivision
8 single family units - Reserved by Levitt Family Trust
23 total units upon which property the wells and
storage tank are located
It was assumed that each of these units will have 1500 ft2of outside irrigation. It is
also assumed that there will be no more than 12 livestock units on the property. Table
1 shows that on the average the proposed homes will divert 12.70 acre feet (7.9 gpm)
per year. The peak diversion month will occur in June when 1.61 acre feet (12.12
gpm) will be diverted. We have estimated that 3.98 acre feet (2.47 gpm) will be
consumed by the subdivision on an annual average. The well was pump tested at a
rate of 20 gpm with a total draw down of approximately 1.8 feet. During the same
period when the well was tested, the water system requirements would be
approximately 6 gpm or 30% of the tested rate.
It is our opinion that there is a substantial reservoir that can be drawn upon by the
proposed Levitt Subdivision. As with any water resource, the supply is dependent
upon seasonal recharge. Just as a municipality goes to the field and observes the
reservoir level to evaluate their water supply, a prudent homeowners association
should measure their water level in their aquifer to evaluate their available supply.
We believe that this well is capable of supplying the subdivision needs. We
recommended that a backup well be constructed at 50% of build out to provide
additional system reliability.
At your request we have also provided a revised Figure 2 from our original report
showing 254' 11" static water level, measured March 19, 1996.
If you have any questions, or require additional information please call our Glenwood
Springs office at 945-5700.

Re: Levitt Subdivision Missouri Heights - Water Quality Test Levitt Trust Well #2
Dear Mark:
Enclosed for your review is a summary of the water quality tests performed by Barringer
Laboratories for the Levitt Trust Well #2. The water samples were tested for parameters
required by the Colorado Department of Health for inorganic chemicals (IOC's), and volatile
organic chemicals (VOC's). These parameters pass the Colorado Department of Health

Enclosed for your review is our pump test report for the Levitt Trust Well #2. This well was
investigated to determine its yield and ability to provide the physical water supply to the Levitt
Subdivision located at Missouri Heights near El Jebel. The legal source of supply will be
provided from the Basalt Water Conservancy District. The contract to acquire water from the
district is currently awaiting approval by the Basalt District Board of Directors. We will forward
you a final contract when approval is granted.
If you have any questions, our require additional information please call our Glenwood Springs
office at 945-5700.

Re: Levitt Trust Well #2
Dear Tom:

(970) 945-1253 Fax
At your request, Zancanella and Associates, Inc. has conducted groundwater investigations
to determine the resources available for your proposed Missouri Heights subdivision. A
recent pump test has been completed for the Levitt Trust Well #2 to determine the well
yield. The well is currently registered as a monitoring hole with Division of Water
Resources under permit No. MH -27420 and is located in the NE 1 /4 of the SW 1 /4 of
Section 28, Township 7 South, Range 87 West of the 6th P.M. 2001 feet from the West
section line and 1470 feet from the South section line. The approximate location of the
well is shown on the attached site map (Figure 1).
The Levitt Trust Well #2 was drilled to a depth of 320 feet and constructed with a 5.5 -inch
diameter casing. The water bearing portion of the well is in a sandstone member of the
Eagle Valley Formation. The attached Figure 2 has been prepared to illustrate the well
construction details. The static water level in the well on March 19, 1996 was 254.92
feet below the top of the well casing. The available drawdown in the Levitt Trust Well #2
is approximately 65 feet ( 320 ft - 255 ft).
The well was tested on March 19, 1996 by Samuelson Pump Company. A two -
horsepower pump powered by an electric generator was installed for the test. A pumping
rate of 20 gallons per minute (gpm) was selected and the well was pumped continuously
for a 24-hour period. Drawdown and time data collected during the test is presented in the
attached Table 1. The drawdown data can be used to determine the yield of a well and
associated aquifer. The drawdown is the distance the water level drops from the initial
static water level and can vary over time dependent on the pumping intensity.
We have plotted the pump test data in a drawdown vs. time curve for Well #2 as shown
on the attached Figure 3. The well drawdown was approximately 1 -foot over the first hour
of the test and further dropped to 1.9 feet at the end of the 24-hour test. The well showed
continuous drawdown with time and did not stabilize. The pumping level at 20 gpm
stayed well above the pump intake during the pumping test. Figure 4 shows the relative

depth of the well with respect to the water surface level during the pump test. Based on
the available drawdown the well should be able to pump continuously in excess of 100
days at the test rate of 20 gpm.
Recovery data for the well was collected for a 24-hour period after pumping had stopped.
The recovery data is also presented in Table 1. The recovery plotted as residual drawdown
is shown in Figure 5. Based on the residual drawdown curve, the well did not display
positive recharge characteristics, or in other words the well did not recover at a greater
rate than it was pumped. The well did not return to the original static water level which
would indicate that water pumped during the test was from storage in the underlying
aquifer and the current recharge rate of the aquifer is less than the pump test flow. Annual
water volumes pumped from the aquifer will need to be matched or remain less than the
annual recharge to the aquifer system.
The attached Table 2 presents the estimated water diversion requirements for the proposed
13 residential unit development. We have assumed that each residential unit will have 3.5
people, each using 100 gallons per person per day. We understand that some of the
residential units will include guest houses. For purposes of this analysis we have
conservatively assumed an additional 3.5 persons for each unit to account for any guest
facilities. The irrigated lawn and garden area for each unit was estimated to be 3000 ft2
(1500 ft2 residential + 1500 ft2 guest house) for a total area of 0.9 acres. An additional
0.5 acres of irrigation demand was included to cover any greenbelt or park space within
the proposed development. The irrigation consumption requirement was estimated to be
1.87 acre-feet/acre and is distributed over the growing season based on plant demands.
The irrigation application efficiency was assumed to be 70% resulting in a diversion
requirement of 2.67 acre-feet/acre (1.87/.7). An additional demand for 12 livestock was
included at a consumption rate of 15 gallons/unit/day.
Based on the above assumptions, the peak diversion month would occur in June with a
demand of 1 .78 acre-feet or 13.4 gallons per minute and the average monthly demand
would be 1.18 acre-feet/month or 8.9 gpm. The annual diversion requirement is 14.16
acre-feet. The estimated annual water consumption requirement is 4.35 acre-feet, with
1.53 acre-feet attributable to "in house" uses and 2.81 acre-feet from irrigation and
livestock needs.
The entire 13 units will require a larger instantaneous peak demand than can be provided
for by the well alone. On site storage will be provided to supply peak domestic and fire
storage demands. Sizing of storage facilities and associated distribution pipelines will be
provided by High Country Engineers.
It is our opinion that with proper storage the well will be capable of serving the
development's domestic and irrigation needs assuming the aquifer characteristics provide
adequate recharge capabilities. We recommend that the aquifer be monitored on a regular
basis so that the water resource can be properly managed. During periods of low recharge
(like a 1977 dry year), irrigation from the well at the proposed development might require
curtailment if seasonal recharge volumes are low. We recommend that a second well be
constructed to provide mechanical reliability to the system. The second well should be
constructed at approximately 50% of build out of the subdivision. The Levitt Well #1
(Monitoring Hole No. 27419) has been constructed but has not been tested and may be
suitable for this purpose.

The proposed wells will be capable of providing the physical supply to the development.
The legal water supply can be provided from contract water with the Basalt Water
Conservancy District. The contract water enables use of district water rights to replace or
"augment" diversions from the development, thus protecting any downstream water rights.
Diversions from either well would initially be covered under a temporary exchange plan
currently approved by the Division of Water Resources. Use of the contract water will
eventually require formal approval under a court approved augmentation plan at which time
only the consumptive portion of water use will have to be replaced.
Well permits from the Division of Water Resources will be approved subject to being
covered by the Basalt Water Conservancy District temporary exchange plan.
Finally, water samples of the pumping discharge were taken from Levitt Trust Well #2 but
have not yet been analyzed by the investigating laboratory. We will make the results
available to you as soon as we receive them from the lab. We estimate the laboratory
results will be available on April 3rd or 4th 1996.

Re: Levitt Trust Well #2
Dear Tom:
(970) 945-5700
(970) 945-1253 Fax
At your request, Zancanella and Associates, Inc. has conducted groundwater investigations
to determine the resources available for your proposed Missouri Heights subdivision. A
recent pump test has been completed for the Levitt Trust Well #2 to determine the well
yield. The well is currently registered as a monitoring hole with Division of Water
Resources under permit No. MH -27420 and is located in the NE 1 /4 of the SW 1 /4 of
Section 28, Township 7 South, Range 87 West of the 6th P.M. 2001 feet from the West
section line and 1470 feet from the South section line. The approximate location of the
well is shown on the attached site map (Figure 1).
The Levitt Trust Well #2 was drilled to a depth of 320 feet and constructed with a 5.5 -inch
diameter casing. The water bearing portion of the well is in a sandstone member of the
Eagle Valley Formation. The attached Figure 2 has been prepared to illustrate the well
construction details. The static water level in the well on March 19, 1996 was 254.92
feet below the top of the well casing. The available drawdown in the Levitt Trust Well #2
is approximately 65 feet ( 320 ft - 255 ft).
The well was tested on March 19, 1996 by Samuelson Pump Company. A two -
horsepower pump powered by an electric generator was installed for the test. A pumping
rate of 20 gallons per minute (gpm) was selected and the well was pumped continuously
for a 24-hour period. Drawdown and time data collected during the test is presented in the
attached Table 1. The drawdown data can be used to determine the yield of a well and
associated aquifer. The drawdown is the distance the water level drops from the initial
static water level and can vary over time dependent on the pumping intensity.
We have plotted the pump test data in a drawdown vs. time curve for Well #2 as shown
on the attached Figure 3. The well drawdown was approximately 1 -foot over the first hour
of the test and further dropped to 1.9 feet at the end of the 24-hour test. The well showed
continuous drawdown with time and did not stabilize. The pumping level at 20 gpm
stayed well above the pump intake during the pumping test. Figure 4 shows the relative

depth of the well with respect to the water surface level during the pump test. Based on
the available drawdown the well should be able to pump continuously in excess of 100
days at the test rate of 20 gpm.
Recovery data for the well was collected for a 24-hour period after pumping had stopped.
The recovery data is also presented in Table 1. The recovery plotted as residual drawdown
is shown in Figure 5. Based on the residual drawdown curve, the well did not display
positive recharge characteristics, or in other words the well did not recover at a greater
rate than it was pumped. The well did not return to the original static water level which
would indicate that water pumped during the test was from storage in the underlying
aquifer and the current recharge rate of the aquifer is less than the pump test flow. Annual
water volumes pumped from the aquifer will need to be matched or remain less than the
annual recharge to the aquifer system.
The attached Table 2 presents the estimated water diversion requirements for the proposed
13 residential unit development. We have assumed that each residential unit will have 3.5
people, each using 100 gallons per person per day. We understand that some of the
residential units will include guest houses. For purposes of this analysis we have
conservatively assumed an additional 3.5 persons for each unit to account for any guest
facilities. The irrigated lawn and garden area for each unit was estimated to be 3000 ft2
(1500 ft2 residential + 1500 ft2 guest house) for a total area of 0.9 acres. An additional
0.5 acres of irrigation demand was included to cover any greenbelt or park space within
the proposed development. The irrigation consumption requirement was estimated to be
1 .87 acre-feet/acre and is distributed over the growing season based on plant demands.
The irrigation application efficiency was assumed to be 70% resulting in a diversion
requirement of 2.67 acre-feet/acre (1.87/.7). An additional demand for 12 livestock was
included at a consumption rate of 15 gallons/unit/day.
Based on the above assumptions, the peak diversion month would occur in June with a
demand of 1.78 acre-feet or 13.4 gallons per minute and the average monthly demand
would be 1.18 acre-feet/month or 8.9 gpm. The annual diversion requirement is 14.16
acre-feet. The estimated annual water consumption requirement is 4.35 acre-feet, with
1.53 acre-feet attributable to "in house" uses and 2.81 acre-feet from irrigation and
livestock needs.
The entire 13 units will require a larger instantaneous peak demand than can be provided
for by the well alone. On site storage will be provided to supply peak domestic and fire
storage demands. Sizing of storage facilities and associated distribution pipelines will be
provided by High Country Engineers.
It is our opinion that with proper storage the well will be capable of serving the
development's domestic and irrigation needs assuming the aquifer characteristics provide
adequate recharge capabilities. We recommend that the aquifer be monitored on a regular
basis so that the water resource can be properly managed. During periods of low recharge
(like a 1977 dry year), irrigation from the well at the proposed development might require
curtailment if seasonal recharge volumes are low. We recommend that a second well be
constructed to provide mechanical reliability to the system. The second well should be
constructed at approximately 50% of build out of the subdivision. The Levitt Well #1
(Monitoring Hole No. 27419) has been constructed but has not been tested and may be
suitable for this purpose.

The proposed wells will be capable of providing the physical supply to the development.
The legal water supply can be provided from contract water with the Basalt Water
Conservancy District. The contract water enables use of district water rights to replace or
"augment" diversions from the development, thus protecting any downstream water rights.
Diversions from either well would initially be covered under a temporary exchange plan
currently approved by the Division of Water Resources. Use of the contract water will
eventually require formal approval under a court approved augmentation plan at which time
only the consumptive portion of water use will have to be replaced.
Well permits from the Division of Water Resources will be approved subject to being
covered by the Basalt Water Conservancy District temporary exchange plan.
Finally, water samples of the pumping discharge were taken from Levitt Trust Well #2 but
have not yet been analyzed by the investigating laboratory. We will make the results
available to you as soon as we receive them from the lab. We estimate the laboratory
results will be available on April 3rd or 4th 1996.
