Conditions

Code Condtions
219 This right authorizes total annual storage volume of 1816.8 acre-feet, 32.5 acre-feet to be used for the initial filling or carryover storage of the flooded fields and 1784.3 acre-feet for the replacement of losses caused by seepage and evaporation.
220 The field flooding established by the storage of water under this right shall not exceed a total capacity of 32.5 acre-feet or a total surface area of 65 acres.
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.
176 The source of this right is wastewater. The wasting of water may be discontinued at any time. This right remains subject to the right of the original appropriator, in good faith and in compliance with state laws governing changes in use and/or expansion of water rights, to cease wasting water, to change the place or manner of wasting, or to recapture.
The Wildlife, Recreation, Wildlife Storage, Recreation Storage, and Diversion to Storage uses of this right shall be junior and subordinate to water right no. 63-33467 and 63-34318, and water right no. 63-33467 and 63-34318 shall be junior and subordinate to this right's irrigation use of 1.3 cfs.
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(s).
020 The diversion and use of water described in this right may be subject to additional conditions and limitations agreed to by the protestant and the right holder under a separate agreement to which the Department is not a party. Because the Department is not a party, the Department is not responsible for enforcement of any aspect of the agreement not specifically addressed in other conditions herein. Enforcement of those portions of the agreement not specifically addressed in other conditions shall be the responsibility of the protestant and the water right holder.
Wildlife and recreation uses are for flow through to prevent freezing of the associated wildlife storage and recreation storage on 65 acres of field flooding for waterfowl habitat and hunting.
To the extent surface return flows result from the diversion of water under this right, the holder shall cause such flows to be returned to the Dixie Slough, and shall not allow any such return flows to be diverted into the Meadows Drain.
204 The wildlife and recreation components of this right shall be junior and subordinate to future water rights authorizing the diversion and use of water from the Dixie Slough and its tributaries, including ground water, for consumptive uses, except that this right shall not be subordinate to future water rights for similar wildlife, recreation and/or aesthetic uses.
103 When ordered by the Director, the right holder shall provide mitigation acceptable to the Director to offset depletion of lower Snake River flows needed for migrating anadromous fish. The amount of water required for mitigation, which is to be released into the Snake River or a tributary for this purpose, will be determined by the Director based upon the reduction in flow caused by the use of water pursuant to this right. Any order of the Director issued in accordance with this paragraph shall be in conformance with applicable rules allowing the right holder due process as the need for mitigation and the amount of mitigation are determined.
