To fulfill the purposes of the Hells Canyon National Recreation Area Act, Pub. L. 94-199, 89 Stat. 1117, Dec. 31, 1975 (codified at 16 U.S.C. § 460gg).
This water right establishes the lake level of Dog Lake at 98.84 feet referenced to Dog BM1 (Elevation 100 feet) located at X=534951, Y=5015617 (UTM Zone 11 North NAD 27).

The Hells Canyon National Recreation Area Act reserved the entire Hells Canyon National Recreation Area for the purposes of the Act. The legal description of the Hells Canyon Recreation Area is filed with and is available for inspection and copying at the Idaho Department of Water Resources. The place of use of this water right is shown on the map attached hereto as Attachment A.
