C18
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.
C22
Priority of appropriation shall give the better right as among those using the surface and ground waters of Mill Creek, Warm Springs, Spring Creek, Summit Creek, and their tributaries, and rights having the same priority date shall share equally in the available water supply in a manner that will equally apportion all natural channel losses among rights having the same date of priority. For example, if there are seven points of diversion from the natural channel, which have the same 1879 date of priority, and the flow in the stream is equal to one-half of the amount of flow necessary to fully satisfy all of the 1879 priorities at their respective points of diversion, then the diversion rates at each of the seven points of diversion shall be reduced by one-half. A pro rata sharing of the water in the stream shall continue to be enforced among rights of equal 1879 priority until the watermaster shall have determined that water in the stream is inadequate to reach a downstream 1879 point of diversion in a sufficient quantity to be applied to beneficial use. Thereafter, upstream 1879 appropriators who are still able to receive water in a sufficient quantity to be applied to beneficial use shall continue a pro rata sharing of the water in the stream.
E55
USE OF THIS RIGHT WITH RIGHT NO. 45-549B IS LIMITED TO THE IRRIGATION OF A COMBINED TOTAL OF 39 ACRES IN A SINGLE IRRIGATION SEASON.
C21
During times of low flow when the quantity of water is not sufficient to fill all the December 31, 1879 priority rights from the surface and ground waters of Mill Creek, Warm Springs, Spring Creek, Summit Creek, and their tributaries, the practice of delivery by rotation among individual appropriators within groups of water users may occur by agreement of the parties, or according to common practice and usage, provided that no water right user shall be denied the right to receive water on a continuous flow basis by reason of this decree.
P21
THIS RIGHT IS A SPLIT FROM FORMER RIGHT 45-548.
E56
USE OF THE RIGHTS LISTED BELOW IS LIMITED TO THE IRRIGATION OF A COMBINED TOTAL OF 76 ACRES IN A SINGLE IRRIGATION SEASON. COMBINED RIGHT NOS.: 45-548A, 45-548B, 45-549A, 45-549B, & 45-2673A.
