The Smiths are requesting the opportunity to acquire one tap to the Town of Carbondale Water System for a single-family residence.

The native vegetation is mainly grasses and shrubs. Elevation is 5,900 to 6,500 feet. The average annual precipitation is 15 to 18 inches, the average annual air temperature is 44 to 46 degrees F, and the average frost -free period is 105 to 120 days. This unit is 60 percent Atencio sandy loam and 30 percent Azeltine gravelly sandy loam. The components of this unit are so intricately intermingled that it was not practical to map them separately at the scale used. Included in this unit are small areas of soils that are similar to the Atencio and Azeltine but have finer texture. Also included are small areas of gravel bars. Included areas make up about 10 percent of the total acreage. The Atencio soil is deep and well drained. It formed in alluvium derived dominantly from sandstone and shale. Typically, the surface layer is reddish gray sandy loam 6 inches thick. The next layer is sandy loam 4 inches thick. The subsoil is sandy clay loam 10 inches thick over gravelly sandy loam 4 inches thick. The upper 6 inches of the substratum is gravelly sandy loam. The lower part to a depth of 60 inches is very gravelly sand. The soil is noncalcareous to a depth of 20 inches and calcareous below that depth. In some areas the surface layer is gravelly or cobbly. Permeability of the Atencio soil is moderate to a depth of 30 inches and rapid below this depth. Available water capacity is low. Effective rooting depth is 60 inches or more. Runoff is slow, and the hazard of water erosion is slight. 1 • /3 -- The Azeltine soil is deep and well drained. It formed in alluvium derived dominantly from sandstone and shale. Typically, the surface layer is reddish gray gravelly sandy loam 9 inches thick. The upper 7 inches of the underlying material is gravelly loam. The lower part to a depth of 60 inches is extremely gravelly sand. The soil is calcareous throughout the profile. In some areas the surface layer is cobbly loam or sandy loam. V_(CA f;,) Permeability of the Azeltine soil is rapid,,below A depth of 16 inches. Available water capacity is low. Effective rooting depth is 60 inches or more. Runoff is slow, and the hazard of water erosion is slight. This unit is used mainly for irrigated hay and pasture. It is also used for cropland, urban development, wildlife habitat, and rangeland. If this unit is used for hay and pasture, the main limitations are low available water capacity and small stones. Grasses and legumes grow well if adequate fertilizer is used. Using management that maintains optimum vigor and quality of forage plants is a good practice. Because these soils are droughty, applications of irrigation water should be light and frequent. Irrigation water can be applied by the corrugation, sprinkler, and flooding methods. If properly managed, this unit can produce.4 tons of irrigated grass hay per acre.. This unit is moderately well suited to irrigated crops. If furrow or corrugation irrigation systems are used, runs should be on the contour or across the slope. If properly managed, this unit can produce 70 bushels of barley per acre. /3-- • • The potential plant community on this unit is mainly western wheatgrass, Indian ricegrass, needleandthread, big sagebrush, and Douglas rabbitbrush. Nevada bluegrass, prairie junegrass, and bottlebrush squirreltail are also present in the potential plant community. The average annual production of air—dry vegetation is about 800 pounds per acre. Management practices suitable for use on this unit are proper grazing use and a planned grazing system. If the range vegetation is seriously deteriorated, seeding is needed. The main limitations for seeding are cobbles and stones. For successful seeding, prepare a seedbed and drill the seed. Brush management improves deteriorated areas of range that are producing more woody shrubs than were present in the potential plant community. If this unit is used for homesite development, the main limitation is small stones. Population growth has resulted in increased construction of homes on this unit. Topsoil can be stockpiled and used to reclaim areas disturbed during construction. Removal of gravel and cobbles in disturbed areas is needed for best results when landscaping, particularly in areas used for lawns. If the density of housing is moderate to high, community sewage systems are needed to prevent contamination of water supplies as a result of seepage from onsite sewage disposal systems. The map unit is in capability subclass IVe, irrigated, and VIe, nonirrigated. It is in Rolling Loam range site. /03 • • ADJACENT PROPERTY OWNERS SMITH PROPERTY JANUARY 19, 1990 Carbondale Rural Fire Protection District c/o City Hall Carbondale, CO 81623 Roaring Fork School Dist.

Please note from the application, it is the intent to annex in the near future all of the Smith's property. The request for domestic water service is to satisfy Garfield County's requirements should the annexation of the referenced Parcel B not be achieved. I would request that this matter be considered by the Board at its earliest convenience. If you have any questions regarding the request for water service or the Subdivision Exemption Application, please give me a call at 945-2246. Thank you for your time. Sincerely, Ronald B.

I • • 6/85 13--Atencio-Azeltine complex, 3 to 6 per -cent slopes. This map unit is on alluvial Qans and terraces. The native vegetation is mainly grasses and shrubs. Elevation is 5,900 to 6,500 feet. The average annual precipitation is 15 to 18 inches, the average annual air temperature is 44 to 46 degrees F, and the average frost -free period is 105 to 120 days. This unit is 60 percent Atencio sandy loam and 30 percent Azeltine gravelly sandy loam. The components of this unit are so intricately intermingled that it was not practical to map them separately at the scale used. Included in this unit are small areas of soils that are similar to the Atencio and Azeltine but have finer texture. Also included are small areas of gravel bars. Included areas make up about 10 percent of the total acreage. The Atencio soil is deep and well drained. It formed in alluvium derived dominantly from sandstone and shale. Typically, the surface layer is reddish gray sandy loam 6 inches thick. The next layer is sandy loam 4 inches thick. The subsoil is sandy clay loam 10 inches thick over gravelly sandy loam 4 inches thick. The upper 6 inches of the substratum is gravelly sandy loam. The lower part to a depth of 60 inches is very gravelly sand. The soil is noncalcareous to a depth of 20 inches and calcareous below that depth. In some areas the surface layer is gravelly or cobbly. Permeability of the Atencio soil is moderate to a depth of 30 inches and rapid below this depth. Available water capacity is low. Effective rooting depth is 60 inches or more. Runoff is slow, and the hazard of water erosion is slight. / • • 13 -- The Azeltine soil is deep and well drained. It formed in alluvium derived dominantly from sandstone and shale. Typically, the surface layer is reddish gray gravelly sandy loam 9 inches thick. The upper 7 inches of the underlying material is gravelly loam. The lower part to a depth of 60 inches is extremely gravelly sand. The soil is calcareous throughout the profile. In some areas the surface layer is cobbly loam or sandy loam. 1%t4. Permeability of the Azeltine soil is rapid,1below A depth of 16 inches. Available water capacity is low. Effective rooting depth is 60 inches or more. Runoff is slow, and the hazard of water erosion is slight.. This unit is used mainly for irrigated hay and pasture. It is also used for cropland, urban development, wildlife habitat, and rangeland. If this unit is used for hay and pasture, the main limitations are low available water capacity and small stones. Grasses and legumes grow well if adequate fertilizer is used. Using management that maintains optimum vigor and quality of forage plants is a good practice. Because these soils are droughty, applications of irrigation water should be light and frequent. Irrigation water can be applied by the corrugation, sprinkler, and flooding methods. If properly managed, this unit can produce.4 tons of irrigated grass hay per acre. This unit is moderately well suited to irrigated crops. If furrow or corrugation irrigation systems are used, runs should be on the contour or across the slope. If properly managed, this unit can produce 70 bushels of barley per acre. / 3 - • • The potential plant community on this unit is mainly western wheatgrass, Indian ricegrass, needleandthread, big sagebrush, and Douglas rabbitbrush. Nevada bluegrass, prairie junegrass, and bottlebrush squirreltail are also present in the potential plant community. The average annual production of air-dry vegetation is about 800 pounds per acre. Management practices suitable for use on this unit are proper grazing use and a planned grazing system. If the range vegetation is seriously deteriorated, seeding is needed. The main limitations for seeding are cobbles and stones. For successful seeding, prepare a seedbed and drill the seed. Brush management improves deteriorated areas of range that are producing more woody shrubs than were present in the potential plant community. If this unit is used for homesite development, the main limitation is small stones. Population growth has resulted in increased construction of homes on this unit. Topsoil can be stockpiled and used to reclaim areas disturbed during construction. Removal of gravel and cobbles in disturbed areas is needed for best results when landscaping, particularly in areas used for lawns. If the density of housing is moderate to high, community sewage systems are needed to prevent contamination of water supplies as a result of seepage from onsite sewage disposal systems. The map unit is in capability subclass IVe, irrigated, and VIe, nonirrigated. It is in Rolling Loam range site. /03 • • ADJACENT PROPERTY OWNERS SMITH PROPERTY JANUARY 19, 1990 Carbondale Rural Fire Protection District ch City Hall Carbondale, CO 81623 Roaring Fork School Dist.
