The period of use for irrigation, industrial, and ground water recharge uses described in this approval may be extended to a beginning date of 3/1 provided that beneficial use of the water can be shown and other elements of the right are not exceeded. The use of water before 3/15 is subordinate to all water rights having no subordinated early season use and a priority date earlier than the date of this approval. |
|
The annual volume of water used for industrial and ground water recharge purposes under right nos. 63-199B and 63-200B shall be measured using separate totalizing measuring devices and the right holder shall report the totals to the department by December 31 of each year. |

This right shall receive 100 percent of its decreed quantity until the natural flow of the waters of the Boise River shall decrease so that all rights containing this condition cannot receive 100 percent of their decreed quantities, at which time this right and the other rights containing this condition shall first be cut to 75 percent of their decreed quantities, as the natural flow of the river decreases, beginning with the latest rights containing this condition and proceeding to the earliest rights containing this condition in the order of their priority dates, and after all of the rights containing this condition shall have been reduced to 75 percent of their decreed quantities, should the natural flow of the waters of the river decrease below the amount necessary to supply 75 percent of those decreed quantities, then this right and the other rights containing this condition, beginning with the latest and proceeding to the earliest, shall be reduced to 60 percent of their decreed quantities. |

Since approval of transfer 88506 Surprise Valley diversion is identified in the conditions of this right as Simplot/Micron diversion or BSD diversion. Simplot/Micron identifies water diverted for irrigation, industrial, or ground water recharge. BSD identifies water diverted for irrigation of the Les Bois Junior High and the Trail Wind Elementary school sites in Columbia Village annexed by Nampa & Meridian Irrigation District. Collectively, the Simplot/Micron and BSD diversions will be referred to as Surprise Valley Pump Station. |
