Conditions

Code Condtions
S45 Diversion for irrigation purposes under this water right prior to April 1 and after October 31 shall occur only as authorized by the Water District 63 Water Master and only when water is being released for flood control by the United States from the Lucky Peak Dam outlet under procedures and requirements for the Memorandum of Agreement between the U.S. Department of the Army and the U.S. Department of the Interior for Flood Control Operations of the Boise River Reservoirs, dated November 20, 1953, the Water Control Manual for Boise River Reservoirs dated April 1985 and any future amendments or revisions made thereto pursuant to state or federal procedures or law; provided that any such use of this water right for irrigation purposes prior to April 1 and after October 31 shall be subordinated to water rights for storage in Lucky Peak Reservoir, Lake Lowell, Arrowrock Reservoir, and/or Anderson Ranch Reservoir, as decreed in SRBA Case No. 39576. Diversion to storage and Irrigation storage under this right are not affected by this remark.
This right is renumbered from former right 63-301.
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.
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.
Water diverted for irrigation purposes under this right may be temporarily stored in Lake Lowell for purposes of re-regulation and delivery by the Boise Project Board of Control.
200 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.
189 Place of Use is 194,498 irrigated acres within the following irrigation district boundaries: Boise-Kuna Irrigation District, Nampa-Meridian Irrigation District, Wilder Irrigation District, New York Irrigation District and the Big Bend Irrigation District. Place of use also includes 60,081 acres within the Black Canyon Irrigation District.
Total reservoir capacity is 173,100 acre feet when filled to elevation 2,531.2 and measured at the upstream face of the dam (Lake Lowell).
BD1 Pursuant to a call in times of scarcity, this right is junior to water right nos. 63-225, 63-253, 63-285, 63-292, 63-293 and 63-382B and any future splits of these rights.
155 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.
