[SUMMARY OF FINAL SUBMITTED VERSION]

SUPPLEMENTAL STATEMENT OF WATER DIVERSION AND USE FOR 2017

Primary Owner: SOPER-WHEELER COMPANY, LLC
Statement Number: S004763

1. Water is used under	Pre-1914 Claim Other: Diversion pre-dates 1880's
2. Year diversion commenced	1880

3. Purpose of Use
Domestic	12 houses, 4 mobile homes
Fire Protection	Silver Lake
Dust Control	Main ranch road
Irrigation
Stockwatering	60-80 Cow/Calf pair
Fish and Wildlife Preservation and Enhancement	Fish and other aquatice species

4. Changes in Method of Diversion

None. In mid-summer 2017 measurement devices installed at regulated outlet gate of Silver Lake to measure water flow on an hourly basis. Data to be collected monthly as needed and stored for later access by water board or other interested parties. As there is no complete record of water flows during 2017, estimates of total useage are shown in this report. Access to the monitoring device is impossible in winter due to snow, but the gate at dam is closed during that period anyway, so no water flow to measure.

Special Use Categories
C1. Are you using any water diverted under this right for the cultivation of cannabis?	No

December	1086171	0	200	0
Total		1200	1200	1200
Type of Diversion	Both Direct Diversion and Diversion to Storage
Comments	The water right is 1,200 acre feet. Amounts shown for diversion to storage are estimated, as little to no flows occur through the measuring devices installed at the dam gate during winter. During winter months the water in the pipeline is mainly static, used only for fire protection (hydrants). Excess water flows down Silver Creek and provides habitat for fish and other aquatic species, plus other wildlife.
