DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSE} WORKS <br />The pnrposed work include a toal ofup to 100 wells, supplying up fo 1,000 gallons per minuie (gllm) ofwater for domestic supply for up <br />to 145 residences, using al average of350 gallors per residence per day year-round, and irdgating up to 500 square feet (sq. ft.) per <br />residence for a total of 1.664 irigated acres. The wells and places of use will be within the place of use desclibed above. This descnbes <br />the total system and total water quantities and development authorized for this Swauk Watel Bank, in sum, utilizing dio eight (8) different <br />groundwater sources ofsupply, under authority of8 permils, G4-35541-G4-35548. <br />The authorized place of we is orvned by multiple private landowners. The intention of the combined applicants .is to obtain permib <br />authorizing the use ofpublic groundwater in the requested amounts to be mjtigated by a portion ofthe 1877 First Creek Water Users <br />Association water right. The l8?7 water rights provide water budget neutality, required by WAC 173-539A, for up to 145 nelv domestic <br />uses within the defined portion ofthe Srvauk Creek subbasin. <br />A mix of individual and small public water suppli systems will be developed- <br />In sum, the total withdrawal ofwater from all 8 different groundwater sources shall not exceed the quantities authorized for the Swauk <br />Creck Water Bank: up to 100 wells, up to 1,000 gpm ofwater for dornestic supply for up to 145 homes, including up to 500 sq. t. of <br />irrigationpef residence for a total of 1.664 acres ofresidential inigation. <br />October 31,2013 October 31, 2033 <br />PROVISIONS <br />Gcneral <br />You (applicant) will record with the Kittitas County Auditor a properly covenant as required under WAC 173-539A450 lhat restricts or <br />prohibits tees or shrubs over a septic drain field. <br />You (applicant) will record with <br />interest in Trust W. ater Right Nos. <br />the Kittitas County Auditor an conveyance insfinnent under which the applica$ obtaiDs ar <br />CSa-00648(AA)sb4-b ard CS440648(AA)sb4-dA) to oftet consumptive use, <br />Any valid priority calls against the source Trust Water fught.Nos, CS,l-00648(AA)sb4-b and CM40648(AA)sb4-c(A), based on local <br />limitations in water availability, will result in temporary reduction or curtailment of the use until the priority call for water ends, or utrtil <br />other mitigation is supplied as provided in the water moniloring and rnanagementplan. <br />The Deparmlent ofEcolory cannot ensure that "a fonnation, a group offormations, or part ofa formation that contains suffioient saturaisd <br />penneable malerial o yield economical [domestic] quantities ofwater to wells . . .!' will be encountered. <br />The applicaut and each landowner (mitigation credit purohaser) shalt submit an assigument form to the Deparfirent ofEcolory describing <br />the specifio interest of the mitigation oeditpurchaser in this pennit <br />Prior to assignment ofany portion ofihis water to a third party, the permittee must submit and the Departnent ofEcolory must approve a <br />wabr monitoring and manigemont plan consistent with the plan required for lhe two mitigaring tust water rights, CS440648(AA)sb4-b <br />and CS440648(AA)sM-{A). <br />Vy'ell Construction Requhements <br />Because Groundwater finit t 1C+-:SSat) urd Groundwater Unit 2 (G4-35542) are marginal in nature, it is rccommended dru wells be <br />located as far ftom each ofthese units' westem outer boundaries as possible. A minimum 100-foot spacing fiom existing wells is required <br />in Units I and 2. <br />Welis drilted grgg[ Groundwater Unit 3 (G4-35543) and into underlying Croundwater Unit 2 shall be requird at minimu$, to have a <br />solid casing through Unit 3. Tlre location and construction of any well proposed within the E%SWIA of Section 34, <br />1'. 20 N., R-l 7 E.Wlvl. must receive specific prior review and written approval ftom the Departrnont of Eccilory to ensure that water levels <br />within Unit 3 in the vicinig ofthe Dunford and McCallum Springs will not be lowered by pumping from the new well. <br />Wells drilled lltgggb Groundwater Unit 4 (G4:35544)and into an underlying unit shall be requked, at minimunr, to have a solid casing <br />through Unit 4. A minimum 1O0-foot spachg from existing wells is required within the Unit 4 boundaries. <br />Within the Unit 4 boundarieg specifically fiom the southern extent of Hidden Valley in tle NW% of Section 33, T.20 N', R. 1?

Additiomlly, ilnit 5 has areas ofperched and fiin saturated thicknesses. Therefore, a minimum 100-foot spacing from existing <br />wells is required in Unit 5. Ifnew water users are not able to succcssfutly develop a well in Unit 5, they may instead _constdeldrilling into <br />an underling grorndwatef unit, which depending on location, may be Unit 7 (G4-35547, central and north), Units I or 2 (south and <br />southeast)orunitS(G4-35548,norttr).
