R65 This right when combined with all other rights shall provide no more than 0.02 cfs per acre nor more than 4.5 afa per acre at the field headgate for irrigation of the place of use.
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. 63.
R43 The right holder shall maintain a measuring device and lockable controlling works of a type approved by the Department in a manner that will provide the watermaster suitable control of the diversion.
172 The boundary encompassing the irrigation place of use for this water right is described with a digital boundary as authorized by Idaho law. The data comprising the digital boundary are stored in the electronic document management system of the Department and are incorporated into this approval by this reference. A map depicting the place of use is attached to this approval document to illustrate the place of use described by the digital boundary.
S45 Diversion for irrigation and aesthetic 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 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. This period of use condition does not apply to Irrigation Storage and Aesthetic Storage.
188 This right is limited to the irrigation of 2782.2 acres within the boundary of Boise Valley Irrigation Ditch Co.
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 preceding 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 preceding to the earliest, shall be reduced to 60 percent of their decreed quantities.
X56 The portion of Right 63-31832 used for conveyance losses is 5.94 cfs.
Transfer 66743 authorizes the diversion of water in the amount of 0.54 cfs and 14.5 af for uses associated with irrigation and a pond constructed in an earlier development phase of the City of Boise's Optimist Park just east of the pond for which this approval (Transfer 73768) proposes mitigation.
Transfer 73768 authorizes the diversion of water in the amount of 0.03 cfs and 6.0 af to be used for replacement of losses caused by evaporation from a 1.7 acre surface area pond authorized for aesthetic storage, wildlife storage, recreation storage, and municipal storage under right 63-32146.
Transfer 73769 authorizes the diversion of water in the amount of 0.04 cfs and 7.0 af to be used for replacement of losses caused by evaporation from a 2.0 acre surface area pond authorized for aesthetic storage under right 63-11791.

193 This right mitigates for the depletion of water resulting from the diversion and use of water under Right 63-34031. To prevent injury to other water right holders, the right holder shall divert 0.03 cfs of this right but shall return that amount of water unused to the Boise River within the NENW, Section 17, T04N, R01E. If the mitigation portion of this right is used for any purpose other than conveyance loss, then water shall not be diverted under Right 63-34031. If the mitigation portion of this right is not deliverable due to a shortage of water or a priority call, then the amount of water authorized for diversion under the use of Right 63-34031 that is being mitigated shall be reduced by the same proportion as the reduction to this right.
This right mitigates for the depletion of water resulting from the diversion and use of water under Rights 63-9718 and 63-9751. To prevent injury to other water right holders, the right holder shall leave undiverted 0.32 cfs of this right at the point of diversion from the Boise River within the NESENE Section 5, T03N R02E. If the mitigation portion of this right is not deliverable due to a shortage of water or a priority call, then the amount of water authorized for diversion under the use of Rights 63-9718 and 63-9751 that are being mitigated shall be reduced by the same proportion as the reduction to this right.
Water is delivered through the Farmers Union and Boise Valley canals.
