Idaho Bills

Adds to existing law to establish requirements for distribution of water.

The appropriation, delivery, and administration of our water resources is complex and vitally important to Idaho’s economic well-being. The use of this precious resource goes across the spectrum as farmers water crops, industries utilize water for processing, utilities generate power, sportsman and those recreating enjoy it, and residents depend on it. As demand increases, we must do our best to deliver water to those who desire and have rights for it in a manner that is fair and predictable. This legislation will create an opportunity for that administrative fairness in water districts that are tributary to the East Snake Plains surface and ground water districts.
