Jen- I will give you in about an hour call to discuss. Please hold off on sending the email to Dave Cole until we talk. In the meantime, what is the source of the water he is using for his irrigation?
Please pardon any typos- sent from my iPhone.

He has an independent line that can be separated from our recycle water lines by a check valve. Section 1 that he is watering for his calves is the same section David Cole recently had questions on and drain directly to the head waters of Creamery Creek. It his intention to water 24 hours a day to green the pasture up. Which could likely produce a visual run-off into that same culvert.

To verify this, the check valve from our recycled water lines were closed and no water was seen coming from the hand lines. Next the river water system was started and began pumping water to the hand lines in Section 1, which then were visually seen to be irrigating.

I will also let him know that we will contact him immediately if anything changes or if we beginning irrigating again in that Section again. David Cole is also welcome to inspect the site to verify the check valve is closed to the Coleman lines and the water is only from Coleman’s private river water line.
