162 Power generation is at the American Falls Power Plant.
The right for the use of water acquired under this right shall be junior and subordinate to all other rights for the use of water within the State of Idaho that are initiated later in time than the priority of this right and shall not give rise to any claim against any future rights for the use of water within the State of Idaho initiated later in time than the priority of this right.
913 The term of this permit shall run concurrently with the license for the American Falls Hydroelectric Project No. 2736 issued by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC), which expires on February 28, 2025. The term shall automatically extend to run concurrently with any annual renewals of the project's FERC license. Prior to the issuance of a subsequent or new FERC license for the project, the Director may review the permit or subsequent water right license and may issue an order canceling all or any part of the use, establishing a new term, or revising, adding or deleting conditions under which the water right may be exercised. The order shall take effect on the date the current term, as may be extended through annual renewals, expires. If the Director does not issue such an order, the term shall automatically extend to a length equal to the project's subsequent or new FERC license and any prior conditions on the permit or subsequent water right license shall remain in effect.
R05 Use of water under this right may be regulated by a watermaster with responsibility for the distribution of water among appropriators within a water district. At the time of this approval, this water right is within State Water District No. 01.
027 Use of water under this right shall be non-consumptive.
08A This right is subject to the provisions of Idaho Code §§ 42-205 through 42-210, restricting the sale, transfer, assignment, or mortgage of this right. Failure to comply with these provisions is cause for immediate cancellation of this right.
025 This right does not constitute Idaho Public Utilities Commission or Federal Energy Regulatory Commission approval that may be required.
