C18 3. This partial decree is subject to such general provisions necessary for the definition of the rights or for the efficient administration of the water rights as may be ultimately determined by the Court at a point in time no later than the entry of a final unified decree. Section 42-1412(6), Idaho Code.
135 The boundary encompassing the place of use for this water right is described with a digital boundary as defined by I.C. Section 42-202B(2) and authorized pursuant to I.C. Section 42-1411(2)(h). The data comprising the digital boundary are incorporated herein by reference and are stored on a CD-ROM disk issued in duplicate originals on file with the SRBA District Court and the Idaho Department of Water Resources. A map depicting the place of use is attached hereto to illustrate the place of use described by the digital boundary.
127 Place of use for irrigation from storage is within the boundary of Fremont Madison Irrigation District pursuant to Section 43-323, Idaho Code.
U42 Place of use does not include federal public lands unless authorized in writing by the United States Bureau of Reclamation.
200 1. The name of the United States of America acting through the Bureau of Reclamation appears in the Name and Address sections of this partial decree. However, as a matter of Idaho Constitutional and Statutory Law, title to the use of the water is held by the consumers or users of the water. The irrigation organizations act on behalf of the consumers or users to administer the use of the water for the landowners in the quantities and/or percentages specified in the contracts between the Bureau of Reclamation and the irrigation organizations for the benefit of the landowners entitled to receive distribution of this water from the respective irrigation organizations. The interest of the consumers or users of the water is appurtenant to the lands within the boundaries of or served by such irrigation organizations, and that interest is derived from law and is not based exclusively on the contracts between the Bureau of Reclamation and the irrigation organizations.
Total reservoir capacity is 135,000 acre feet when filled to elevation 6303 and measured at the upstream face of the dam. Water right nos. 21-2156, 21-10560 and 21-13161 are limited to the total combined annual diversion volume necessary to allocate a total of 135,000 acre-feet of irrigation storage water per year to the consumers or users of the irrigation storage water.
Place of use for irrigation storage is Island Park Reservoir, provided, however, that water under this right may be temporarily held in the unoccupied space of any of the reservoirs upstream of Milner Dam, located at township 10S, range 21E, sections 28 and 29, when determined by the Water District 01 Watermaster as supervised by the Director of the Department of Water Resources, the Water District 01 advisory committee, and the United States Bureau of Reclamation that such temporary storage will maximize the storage of water upstream of Milner Dam.
2. The allocation of storage to federal contractors and the location of that storage, including carryover storage, in the reservoir system shall be determined by the United States Bureau of Reclamation pursuant to federal reclamation law and contracts entered into between the United States and federal contractors. The Water District 01 Watermaster as supervised by the Director of the Department of Water Resources shall distribute the stored water in accordance with allocation instructions from the United States Bureau of Reclamation. “Reservoir system” shall mean all Federal reservoirs on the Snake River and its tributaries down to and including Lake Walcott, which store water for distribution pursuant to water right nos. 1-219, 1-2064, 1-2068, 1-4055, 1-10042, 1-10043, 1-10044, 1-10045, 1-10620, 1-10621A, 1-10621B, 1-10622, 1-10623, 21-2156, 21-4155, 21-10560, 21-13161, 21-13194, 25-7004, 25-14413A and 25-14413B.
4. This decree does not alter, amend, or modify the contracts entered into between various federal contractors and the United States Bureau of Reclamation, as amended, in connection with the Palisades project and the Minidoka project, which contracts remain binding among the parties.
5. September 15th beginning date for this annual period is known as the “reset date” for reservoir volumes. The “reset date” allows previously satisfied reservoir water right volumes to begin filling again for the next annual storage volume period. The annual storage volume period will extend from September 15th to the following September 14th. Consistent with Section 8.3 of the 1990 Fort Hall Indian Water Rights Agreement, nothing in this provision is intended to impact the rights described and administered pursuant to that Section.
