The Water Determination was issued to RMBG LLC#2 and Pikes Peak Range Riders Foundation on 8/25/04. On 5/11/19, a Quitclaim Deed for the water rights for the 2 lots was issued from only RMBG LLC#2 to Applicant. Please have Applicant upload to EDARP a deed that conveyed the water rights from Pikes Peak Range Riders to RMBG - there appears to be a piece missing in the water rights chain of title.

Please provide specific mitigation measures as part of plat demonstrating how shallow groundwater will be mitigated. The generic note regarding hazard mitigation is not specific to this issue. That mitigation could include restricting the development of houses with basements, or requiring underdrains, etc. and must be added as a plat note. Please provide specific mitigation information in the form of additional plat notes or dedicate those shallow groundwater areas as no-build. 12/22/2021 7:36:27 AM

CGS reiterates and continues to recommend that prior to approval of the subdivision:
• The potential impact of constraints imposed by the identified shallow bedrock, shallow groundwater and seasonal variations in groundwater be discussed in RMG’s report as outlined in the Engineering Criteria Manual referenced on page 11 of their report. This should include any details on special recommendations regarding shallow bedrock, shallow groundwater and any problems associated with groundwater level fluctuations; and,
• It would be prudent for the County to require a note be added to the plat that basements are not allowed in this subdivision due to shallow groundwater unless groundwater monitoring (through the annual seasonal fluctuations) prior to construction demonstrates that below grade areas can maintain 3-5 feet between bottom of foundation and groundwater, and/or site grading demonstrates that it will mitigate the depth to groundwater.
The Colorado Geological Survey (CGS) provided comments previously on 12/6/20. Those comments remain valid and are repeated here:
RMG’s report identifies and discusses some of the geologic hazards and constraints identified at this location. CGS agrees with the partial list of geologic hazards and constraints RMG identifies at the property including hydrocompactive (collapsible) soils, expansive soils and bedrock, erosion, radon, and seismicity. However, they also imply (p.13) that fill soils may exist onsite. Shallow bedrock and high groundwater are also geologic constraints identified at the site (GeoQuest report). CGS recommends shallow bedrock, shallow groundwater and seasonal variations in groundwater be discussed in RMG’s report as outlined in the Engineering Criteria Manual referenced on page 11 of their report.
We recommend the letter of intent submitted for the subdivision list the identified geologic constraints at the site impacting the planned residences including hydrocompaction, shallow groundwater and shallow bedrock.
RMG p. 13, “We recommend that a lot-specific Subsurface Soil Investigation be performed on Lot 2 for any future structures.” As the subdivision includes plans to develop both Lot 1 and 2 this recommendation should be followed for both lots. These investigations should perform testing and analysis for designing foundations, floor systems, subsurface drainage, pavements, etc. We recommend that testing for swell/consolidation and sulfate content (corrosivity to concrete) be included.
RMG recommends p. 10, “If shallow groundwater conditions are found to exist at the time of lot-specific subsurface soil investigations, the feasibility of basement construction and/or any recommended mitigation measures are to be addressed at that time.” While the other listed conditions can be evaluated and properly designed for during a site-specific soils investigation the full extent and variation in depth of shallow groundwater cannot be determined during a single season or point in time. Groundwater is reported at 9 and 10 feet below grade in Geoquests borings and as shallow as 7-feet in their test pits. Basements should not be allowed for these two lots, and this should be noted on the Plat, unless it can be proven with a groundwater monitoring program that below grade areas maintain 3-5 feet between bottom of foundation and groundwater.
It would be prudent for the county to require RMG’s recommendation for exterior perimeter foundation drains (p. 14) at this location. Raising site grades and/or garden-level basement construction can also be used in conjunction with drain systems to mitigate high groundwater conditions.
Plat note 11 should identify RMG and Geoquest and the dates their reports were completed. Plat note 4 and 12 should state that the septic systems must be engineered systems due to shallow bedrock as stated by GeoQuest.”

1. Please contact Enumerations for well addresses for both lots. Provide a site plan showing location of meter. If this is to come later in the project, disregard this comment.
2. Standard final plat comments still apply, but with RBD being closed, there are a few new changes to Enumerations review of the Mylar. Please, send a pdf of the final plat document (intended plat of record) to the Enumerations reviewer that reviewed the project. We will then check the mylar for the normal things we look at on a plat, address, street names, title block and floodplain statement. We will then stamp off on that document with an RBD check stamp, if all is accurate. This will be our copy of record that we plan to see once the document is recorded, minus a few signatures on the main sheet. Addressing fee will be for two addresses. The fee will be $20.00 at Plat.

The Upper Black Squirrel Creek GWMD has the following comments:

The minor subdivision will be limited to .5 acre-feet per year for the 4 lots based on our rule 17.

17. LARGE CAPACITY WELLS-USE IN SUBDIVISIONS. This rule shall be applicable to
all wells proposed to be permitted pursuant to §37-90-107, C.R.S. after the effective date
of this rule, including wells re-permitted following a change in use proceeding and wells
proposed to be permitted following a determination of water right, for withdrawals from
the Upper Black Squirrel Alluvial, Dawson, Denver, Arapahoe, and Laramie-Fox Hills
aquifers for the purpose of: (a) Supplying water to one or more single family
residence(s), condominium(s), apartment(s), or multiple-dwelling unites) located in any
Subdivision or cluster development within the District; (b) Supplying water for the
irrigation of greenbelts, common areas, out lots, or equivalent in any Subdivision or
cluster development within the District; 01' (c) Supplying water to ponds, reservoirs,
creeks, ditches, fountains, or other water features in any Subdivision or cluster
development within the District.
A. For wells proposed to be used in a Subdivision or cluster development which has
received final approval from the Board of County Commissioners of El Paso County
or other governing authority prior to the effective date of this rule, withdrawals, both
individual and cumulative, shall be limited to the amounts set forth in the most recent
Subdivision Water Supply letter issued by the Office of the State Engineer pursuant
to §30-28-136 (h) (1) for the Subdivision or cluster development in which the State
Engineer makes a finding of no injury. For the purpose of this rule, each filing or
phase of a Subdivision requiring additional or supplemental approval of any kind
shall constitute a separate Subdivision. In the absence of a letter issued pursuant to
§30-28-136 (h) (I), withdrawals shall be limited as set forth in subsection (B) of this
rule.
B. For all other wells, withdrawals shall not exceed .5 acre feet per year per single
family residence, single condominium unit, apartment unit, single unit within a
multiple-dwelling unit, or equivalent within the Subdivision or cluster development
supplied by the well. In the event a Subdivision or cluster development is supplied by
multiple wells, production from all wells supplying the subdivision or cluster
development shall not exceed the product of ( the number of single family residences,
single condominium units, apartment units, single units within a multiple-dwelling
unit or equivalent within the Subdivision)X(.5) acre feet per year. In no event shall
production from the well exceed the rate 01' amount set forth in any determination of
water rights issued for the well by the Ground Water Commission.
C. C. Nothing in this rule shall be interpreted to obviate the need for a Ground Water
Commission approved replacement plan, where applicable.
(Effective August 23, 2010).
