Conditions

Code Condtions
Maximum Volume Annually Diverted to Storage and Release from Storage: 293,050.0 AF.
The reservoir storage capacity is 293,050 acre feet when filled to elevation 3055.0 and measured at the upstream face of the dam.
Lucky Peak Reservoir has 13,950 acre feet of capacity for flood control purposes in addition to the volume of water authorized for storage under this right.
Water right nos. 63-303, 63-3613, 63-3614, 63-3618, 63-33734A, and 63-33734B are limited to the total combined annual diversion volume necessary to allocate a total of 1,044,011 acre-feet of storage water per year to the consumers or users of the storage water.
The place of use for Irrigation Storage, Streamflow Maintenance Storage, and Recreation Storage is Lucky Peak Reservoir.
The place of use for Streamflow maintenance from storage is wtinin the channel of the Boise River from Lucky Peak Dam downstream to the confluence with the Snake River
The place of use is within the Boise Federal Reclamation Project within Ada, Canyon, Payette, and Gem Counties, Idahp; Malheur County, Oregon, and the above-listed tracks in Ada, Boise, and Elmore Counties, Idaho.
Recreation storage (inactive storage) shall not be released from storage for a beneficial use.
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.
The storage rights in Lucky Peak Reservoir are subject to the flood evacuation provisions which supplement irrigation storage contracts held in Anderson Ranch and Arrowrock Reservoirs as defined by supplemental contracts with the Bureau of Reclamation. This acknowledgement relieves the right holder from seeking a temporary change in purpose of use to meet these obligations.
The Bureau of Reclamation and Idaho Department of Fish and Game shall provide joint written instructions to the Department, for conveyance to the watermaster, regarding release of the Lucky Peak streamflow maintenance storage water.
The annual time period for accruing natural flow to the on-stream reservoir storage water rights in IDWR administrative basin 63 will be determined by the watermaster as supervised by the director of the department of water resources; provided, however, the annual time period will begin (1) after the day of allocation and when there is no natural flow available to water rights junior in priority to January 12, 1911, and (2) before natural flow has again become available to water rights junior in priority to January 12, 1911, or on November 1, whichever is earlier.
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. Idaho Code § 42-1412(6).
