**NOTICE TO NORTH FORK & SOUTH FORK WATER USERS**
This past irrigation season, water rights dated on or after 1938 were cut on July 23, 1996,
due to a shortage of natural flow in the river necessary to deliver all water rights. Storage
water was released from the reservoirs to allow existing diversions to continue to use
water from the river, and this water was charged to the water users who continued
diverting water after their water rights were cut. As natural flow in the river declined
throughout the summer and fall, other water rights were cut in order to deliver the
remaining natural flow to the older water rights on the river in priority of date of
issuance, consistent with state water law. The Water District No. 65 Advisory Board,
realizing that your addition to the. accounting system happened late in the spring, voted to
allow the 1996 irrigation season as a grace period for your use of storage water. You will
not be charged for the storage water you used during the 1996 irrigation season.
This year, however, you will be charged for storage water if you choose to use water from
the river after your water right is cut. Storage water is charged through the Water District
No. 65 Rental Pool, a method set up by the Idaho Legislature and the Idaho Water
Resource Board to allow water users without storage space in the reservoirs to "rent"
storage water (for one year) from water users who own storage space and "lease" that
space to the Rental Pool. On average, the first water rights are cut on or about July 10`h -
July 15t. This date has been as early as June 12`.h, and as late as July 28`h. I will send a
letter notifying you of the date when natural flow declines and storage water is released to
meet your water diversion. You may then decide to either rent storage.water from the
Rental Pool at the rate of $2.95 per acre foot (about 1 cubic foot per second for a 24-hour
period) or reduce your diversion to natural flow levels for your water right. Some water
rights are only partially cut, so it is important to call me when you receive the notice in
order for me to estimate your storage water use and charges for the balance of the season.
During dry years, it will be imperative that you contact this office prior to July 1 in order
that enough storage water is set aside for your use. After July 1, any unrented storage
water can be rented for salmon flow augmentation. On the back of this notice is an
estimate of storage water use for 1996 and estimated cost for 1997 (assuming a
comparable water year) for your water right. Many assumptions were made in
calculating this amount and it is just an estimate, so it is important to communicate any
facts about your water use (i.e.: record of dates of irrigations, number and size of
sprinkler heads, number and size of siphon tubes, etc.) to me as soon as possible
throughout the year in order that I may incorporate those facts into my accounting.
