aoil is on terraces, fans, and upland.hilIs. Included in this unit are smal1
areas of alluvium and eolian material. Elevation is 6,500 to 9r000 feet.
The average annual precipitation is 15 to 18 inches, the averege annual air
temperature is 40 to 44 degrees F, and the averege frost-free period is 75 to
95 days.
Typically, the surface layer is brown loao 5 inches thick. The subsoil
is clay loan 35 inches thick. The subetratun to a depth of 60 inches or more
is clay loam. The soil is noncarcareoug to a depth of 3g inches and
calcareous below that depth.
Included in this unit are small areas of similar eoils with darker,
thicker surface layers. AIso included are soall areas of similar soils with
silt loan and silty c18y loan textures. Included areas nake up about 20

Permeability of the Enpedrado soil is noderate. Available rrater capacity
is high. Effective rooting depth is 60 inches or ruore. Runoff is medium,
and the hazard of water erosion is slight.
Thie unit is ueed for hayland and cropland.

The potential plant community on this unit ie mainly Lrestern wheatgrass,
needleendthread, prairie junegraes, mountain big sagebrush, and Douglas
rabbitbrush. Other less numerous plants that characterize thie site are
outtongrase, Letteruan needlegrass, coruoon enowberry, Utah serviceberry, and
entelope bitterbrush. The average annual production of air-dry vegetation is
about 1r500 pounds per acre. If the range condition deteriorates, mountain
big sagebrush, Kentucky bluegrass, Douglas rabbitbrush, and annual weeds
incre ase.
This unit is well auited to alfalfa and snall graine crop6. It has few
linitetions. Maintaining crop residue on or near the surface reduces nrnoff,
reduces soil blowing, and helps to maintain soil tilth and organic matter
content. If properly managed, this unit can produce 90 bushels of barely per
acre.
This uap unit is suited to homesite developenr. Shrink-swe11 potential
can be minioized by thoroughly prewetting foundation areas. The linitations

This unit is 45 percent Showalter very 6tony loam and 35 percent Morval
loan. The components of this unit are so intricately intermingled that it
was not practical to map them aeparately at the scale used. The Showalter
soils occupy convex parts of the landscape and Morval eoile are in more
conceve positions.
Included in this unit are small sreas of soil.s sinilar to this Morval
soil which have thicker surface layers. Also included are small areas of
soils similar to this Morval soil which have 30 to 40 percent cobble in the
substratum. Included &reas make up about 20 percent of the total acreage.
The Showalter soil is deep and well drained. It forroed in alluvium
derived dominantly frm basalt. Typically, the surface is covered with I0
to 15 Percent stonesr 5 percent cobble, and 5 percent gravel. The surface
layer is brown very stony loam 8 inches thick. The upper 3 inches of the
subsoil is very cobbly clay loam. The lower 28 inches is very cobbly clay.
The substratum to a depth of 50 inches or ruore is very cobbly clay loam.

Permeability of the Morval soil is moderate. Availab1e water capacity
is noderate. Effective rooting depth is 60 inches or Eore. Runoff is
medium, and the hazard of water erosion is slight.
This unit is used for hayrand, cropland, range, and urban development.
The unit is moderately suited to hay and cropland. The nain
linitations are stones on the surface, steep slopes, and slow permeability.
Grasses and legunes grorr, weII if adequate fertilizer is used. Liniting
tillage for seedbed preparation and weed control reduces runoff erosion.
rf properly rnanaged, this unit can produce 3 tons of irrigated grass hay or
60 bushels of barley per acre.
The potential plant community on the showarter eoil is mainry bluebunch
wheatgrass, western wheatgrass, prairie junegrass, rndian ricegrass, true

Hechanical treatment is not practical, because the surface is stony
and slopes are steep. Ilanagement practices suitable for use on this unit
are proper range use, deferred grazing, rotation grazing, and aerial
spraying for brueh management. Slope linits accesd by livestock and results

Dear Ly1e,
You have recently inquired as to the possibility ofobtaining a water allotment contract from the Basa1t Water
Conservancy District for your Spring Valley Ranch Ltd. propertylocated northeast of Colorado Mountain Col1ege. It is our
understanding that you contemplate the development of threesingle family residential units on the 40 acre property.
Your property is situated in an area that can be served by adistrict water allotment contract. Technically the property islocated in designated rrWater Service Area Arr. This means thatthe Districtrs water rights and associated. substitute watersupply plan can be of benefit to help protect your proposedwell(s) from downstream ca1ls.

4O ACRE SUBDIVISION
NARRATTVE EXPLAINING WHY EXEMPTION IS BEING REQUESTED
This exemption is requested to enable three
rural residential sites to be created from a 40-acreparcel now zoned and used agriculturally.
This use to provide sites for three rural
residences - would enable the land to be used forits highest and best purpose. The current use isfor cattle grazing on1y. The hiI1y topography
makes it unsuitable for farming. The tract lies
immediately south of the Veltus residence and northof County Road 115. The three residential sites
created would be in keeping with the current ruralresidential use of the adjoining tract, and County
Road I15 would provide easy access.
The present agricultural use which provides
minimal tax return to the County would be replaced
by a significantly higher tax base created by the
proposed use. The cost impact on County Road 115
by the three domestic users would be minj-maI comparedto the potential return for the County.
This exemption will create a smalI number (3)
of large sites with a minimum of complexity or impactto put them to use. It is expected that thesesites can fill a need in the market at a reasonableprice.

As a property owner, affected by the proposed exemptionappl ied for by Spring Val ley Ranch, Ltd., I wish toexpress my objections to the exemption.
Personally I feel the spl itting of the tract into threeparcels would adversely affect my property value and privacy.l also have a great concern for the "if..i on my well.
My larger concern is the future deveropment of spring var rey.Spring valley Ranch, Ltd., has in the past requested and beengranted multiple spl its on their property in Spring Val ley.At the same time there are three entities in ti-re spring valleyarea that have gone through the puD process at great expenseto plan orderly development.
Please give my expressed concerns your consideration in makingyour recommendation to the County Commissioners.
I do plan to attend the meeting on June l5th.

40 ACRE SUBDIVISIOI.I
FOUR PARCEL SPLIT PROVISION
This parcel on January I, L973, was part of
a 3 r 000 acre ranch owned by the Raymond Hopkins
family. The ranch lay along County Road' 115 for
over two miles, and was traversed through Spring
Valley by the road. A1l the residential parcels
that existed in L973 were located at the west end
of the ranch on the south side of County Road 115
in order to use the Hopkins spring for domestic
water. The subject 40 acre parcel is on the
extreme easterly end of the ranch and Iies on
the north side of CountY Road 115.
The ranch was purchased by the applicant in
L977. Five small residential tracts were created
in 1977 by the exemption procedure. AI1 were in
the same area as the two original Hopkins houses
at the west end of the ranch south of the road.
Applicant sold the ranch in L979 to Spring
Valley Holdings but retained the subject 40 acre
parcel. It is noted that applicant had acquired
and simultaneously sold the sister ranch (west
half of original Hopkins homestead/ranch) to
Spring Valley Holdings which in effect recombined
both into one 5,800 acre Parcel.
Applicant believes that the spirit of the four
Iot split limit in current County regulations will
be met. The subject parcel is located an extreme
distance from previous splits of any kind on the
ranch. It further appears that if necessary,
discretion could be applied due to the "split by
a public right of way . . . . " provision of the
exemption regulation. The parcel for which this
exemption is sought lies on the north side of
County Road I15, but previous splits occurred on
the south side and over two miles away.
As noted above, aPPlicant was successful in
lgTg in combining the previous Hopkins Ranch division
back into one 5,800 acre tract that has been developed
as a most orderly P.U.D. to the benefit of the area
and the County. Perhaps having combined 5,800 acres
could earn consideration for splitting the one re-
tained 40 acre parcel.
We request the application be approved in light
of the history of the area and the facts. we believe
it to be consistent with the public interest and the
objectives of the regulations.
