The petition must set forth any significant change in circumstances and evidence of the public interest supporting the proposed amendment. The Director will notify the general public and specific persons or notify interested parties of the proposed change, and conduct a hearing for the purpose of determining whether the water right should be amended in the public interest. The burden of proof at the hearing shall be upon the person or parties seeking the amendment to establish that the amendment of this water right would be in the public interest.
091
Use of water under this right shall recognize and allow the continued beneficial diversion of water under any prior existing water right established by diversion and application to beneficial use or by an application, permit, or license on file or issued by the director under the provisions of Chapter 2, Title 42, Idaho Code, with a priority of water right date earlier than the date of priority of this right.

Upon further finding and order of the director that gaging stations are required to maintain the approved minimum flows under this right, such measuring devices shall be permanently installed and maintained as specified by the director.
The reach of this minimum stream flow begins at the confluence with the East River in Lot 5 (NE¼SE¼NE¼), Section 28, T58N, R04W, B.M. and extends downstream approximately 21.4 miles to the mouth of the Priest River at the confluence with the Pend Oreille River in Lot 6 (SW¼NW¼), Section 30, T56N, R04W, B.M.
The purpose of this minimum stream flow is for the protection of fish and wildlife habitat, aquatic life, and recreational values.
