Each claims prior appropriative and decreed rights to the waters of Truckee River and contends that there is no unappropriated water in the Lake Tahoe Basin which supplies the Truckee River. California Department of Fish and Game protests applications of Meyers Water Company for appropriations from Upper Truckee River and tributaries, alleging that the quantities of water applied for at times exceed the minimum flows of the streams and an insufficient flow in the stream would be destructive to the trout and Kokane.e salmon fisheries resources of Upper Truckee River, Oakwood Investment Company op- poses the applications of North Tahoe Public Utility District on the basis that it already serves most of the latters proposed service area, The Lake Tahoe Basin consists of a relatively large lake surrounded by a rather narrow doughnut -shaped watershed with a multitude of contributory small streams. The largest of these tributaries is the Upper Truckee River at the south end of the lake. Total drainage area above the lake outlet is 519 square miles in- cluding 193 square miles of lake water surface. Watershed elevations range from a maximum of 10,881 feet at Freel Peak to 6,223 feet at the lake outlet (Staff Exhsa L{ and 5)o Across the outlet of the lake into the Truckee River is a six -foot -high dam operated by the Truckee -Carson Irrigation District under contract with the United States Bureau of Reclamation. In effect, the lake is operated as a storage reservoir, with a capacity of about 7459000 acre-feet between elevation 6,223 (the rim of the lake) and 6,229.1 (Staff Exh. 4; USGS Water Supply Paper 1564, 1958). Issuing from the northwest corner of Lake Tahoe, the Truckee River flows due north to the town of Truckee, where it turns to the east. Just above the Nevada line is a series of powerhouses. At the Farad powerhouse of the Sierra Pacific Power Company near Floriston the Truckee River has a drainage area of 940 square miles. The 45 -year average discharge of the Truckee River at Farad as computed in 1958 was about 588,000 acre- feet per year. The 44 -year average annual discharge of Lake Tahoe is about 182,000 acre-feet per year, or about one-third of the total Truckee River flow into Nevada. The Truckee River continues east through the cities of Reno and Sparks, and its natural course is into Pyramid Lake, a saline body of water without outlets. Derby Dam, located to the east of Sparks, is the point where Newlands Project water is diverted by the Truckee -Carson Irrigation District to Lake Lahontan. Water flowing by Derby Dam which is not required to satisfy decreed downstream Indian rights and which wastes into Pyramid Lake is assumed to be surplus and unappropriated. The outlet of Lake Tahoe was first dammed by a crib dam of timber and stone fill completed in 1870 by a Colonel A. W. Von Schmidt, who had acquired a half section of land surrounding the Truckee River outlet. By Chapter 513 of the Statutes of 1870, California authorized the Donner Lumber and Boom Company 'oto -4- improve, at its own expense, the channel of the Truckee River . and by erecting floodgates at the outlet of the lake and along the channel of said river, not more than five feet in height, so as to render it practicable to float saw logs, lumber and wood down the channel to said Town of Truckee." The old Von Schmidt and Donner Lumber and Boom Company dam became obsolete by 1909, and the present concrete structure was begun at that time. Water rights on the Truckee River, including those applicable to Lake Tahoe, are "defined" in part by four documents that are listed below in chronological order (Oakwood Exh. 8, p. 33). 1. Decree of June 11., 1915, in the District Court of the United States, Northern District of California, Second Division, inthe case of The United States of America, Plaintiff, v. The Truckee River General Electric Company, Defendent. 2. Newlands Project contract of 1926 between the United States and the Truckee -Carson Irrigation District. 3. Truckee River agreement of 1935 between the United States, Truckee -Carson Irrigation District, Washoe County Water Conservation District, Sierra,Pacific Power Co., and various others. X944, 14.. Truckee River final decree entered September 8, in the District Court of the United States in and for the District of Nevada in the case of United States of America, Plaintiff. v. Orr Water Ditch Company et al., Defendents. -5- The 1915 decree, in addition to condemning rights of way for outlet works at Lake Tahoe, defines rights to store Truckee River water in, and release it from, Lake Tahoe. It provides that certain flows, known as the "Floriston rates," are to be maintained in the river as measured at the gaging station near Floriton, California, and permits regulatory operations in order to satisfy the rights of both irrigation and power The NewlandsProject contract of 1926 gives the interests. Truckee - Carson Irrigation District the prior contract right to water required to irrigate 87,500 acres. The 1935 agreement reaffirms the 1915 decree and contains various operating agreements relative to maintenance of the "Floriston rates" in the light of developments since 1915, including construction of the Boca Reservoir by Washoe County Water Conserva- tion District. The Truckee River final decree of 1944 adjudicates over 700 claims of rights to use of waters of the Truckee River. It authorizes storage of water in Lake Tahoe behind the six-foot dam of the Bureau of Reclamation together with direct diversion from the Truckee River to Lake Lahontan and the Newlands Project. Except for power plants and their non -consumptive use of water above the Nevada line, all places of use authorized by said four documents are located in Nevada. Releases from storage of California reservoirs other than Lake Tahoe which affect flows in the Truckee River above Floriston, include Boca Reservoir and Donner and Independence Lakes with a collective storage capacity of about 80,000 acre-feet. The effect of the 1944 final decree and the 1915 decree and 1935 agreement ratified by it is to provide for releases of water stored in Lake Tahoe, Boca Reservoir, and Donner and Independence Lakes in accordance with agreements of the parties and under control of a watermaster appointed by the court. The parties to these agree- ments and these court actions do not include any persons or parties located on or upstream from Lake Tahoe (Staff Exh, 3, p, 18)., The Department of Water Resources prepared a hydrologic study of the Truckee River with relation to surplus water at Derby Dam after all present uses and the Pyramid Indian rights are met. The study covers the 30-year period from January 1923 through September 1952 (RT pp, L9-54; DWR Exh, 2), and assumes 1956 develop- ments and usage except for delivery of water to the Pyramid Indians in excess of usage and to the full extent of their decreed rights. Surplus water at Derby Dam ranged from zero in five years to 868,900. acre-feet for the first nine months of the 1951-52 water year. The annual average of surplus water at Derby Dam was 142,000 acre-feet. The same study shows that in five years the water was so high in Lake Tahoe that releases were required for the prevention of excessive high water. These years coincide with years of high surplus water in Pyramid Lake, The 30-year annual average of these Tahoe releases is 28,250 acre-feet, By any standard, high water releases from Lake Tahoe which reach Pyramid Lake are unappropriated, Since Lake Tahoe is an interstate lake, and the Truckee River rises for the most part in California and flows into Nevada, there is an underlying requirement for an equitable division of these interstate waters between the States of California and Nevada, See Colorado v. Kansas, 320 U. S. 383, 64 S.Ct. 176 (1943). That California has not yet exhausted its entitlement appears clear, since most of the water of the Truckee River System, including Lake Tahoe, rises in California, but nearly all of the consumptive use of the Truckee takes place in Nevada, This Boardls power to authorize appropriation of unappropriated water is limited to Californias equitable share of these interstate waters. For several years the States of California and Nevada have been attempting to negotiate a compact for the allocation of water in the Lake Tahoe Basin as well as the Truckee, Carson, and Walker Rivers. A joint study conducted by the California Department of Water Resources and the Nevada State Engineer has determined that ultimate development in the Lake Tahoe Basin will require a gross diversion of 34,000 acre-feet per annum. Reportedly the Compact Commission has adopted the 34,000 acre-feet gross diversion figure as the basis for a compact and is negotiating for an allocation of approximately 65% to California and 35% to Nevada. In 1956, a total of 12,300 acre-feet of water was being diverted to use in the Lake Tahoe Basin; 8,900 acre-feet in California and 3,400 acre-feet in Nevada. Since the applications considered herein request permits for diversions at rates which, if maintained continuously throughout the seasons specified in the applications, would aggregate a quantity of water somewhat in excess of the anticipated total allocation to California, the Compact Commission urges the State Water Rights Board to give consideration to limiting any permits issued to a reasonable annual acre-foot quantity and also to a quantity that can be reasonably used in the near future (RT pp, 13- 28)0 A further study by the Department made for the Joint Compact Commission showed that appropriation of water for domestic purposes and recreational uses in the Tahoe basin would have little, if any, effect on downstream users (RT pp, 85-88). This is because of the decrease in evapo-transpiration in urbanized areas and anticipated return flow. A similar finding was made by the State Engineers of Nevada and California in June of 1949 (Staff Exh, 3) The Nevada State Engineer has recently approved applications to appropriate from the Nevada portion of Lake Tahoe (Oakwood Exh. 7)0 In view of the possible limitations of a water supply to California quantities Tahoe area reasonable by of the proposed Compact, the reservation of large water for long range future development in the Lake is found to be against the public interest. to limit permits to amounts It appears of water that can be developed and placed to beneficial use within the next ten years. The attention of the applicants is also invited to the power of an interstate compact, when ratified by the States concerned and by the United States, to modify existing rights such as the permits hereby authorized. (Hinderlider.v. La Plata and Chev Creek Ditch Co. 304 U. S. 92, 58 S.Ct. 803). -9- Oakwood Investment Compan (dba Brockwa Water Coo) Application 17139 is for a permit to appropriate 2.5 cubic feet per second (cfs) between June 1 and September 30 from Lake Tahoe for municipal purposes. The service area of the company is located at the north end of Lake Tahoe adjacent to the California - Nevada State line and includes the communities of Tahoe Vista, Kings Beach, Brockway and Crystal Bay (Oakwood Exh, 1). The company has approximately 1,100 service connections serving as many as 10,000 persons during the peak summer months (RT po 129). The present sources of water for Brockway Water Company are gravity diversion from Griff Creek and Mt, Baldy Springs area and pumping from Lake Tahoe. The Griff Creek diversion system has a capacity of approximately 1.5 cfs; the Mt. Baldy Springs diversion has a capacity of approximately 1,0 cfs. The company diverts from the lake by means of three pumps having a combined capacity of 3.25 cfs, Rights claimed to cover the diversions include appropriam tive rights based on notices posted and recorded prior to 1914, riparian rights, Licenses 1910 (Application 6983)•and 5646 (Applica- tion 12574), both covering appropriations from Griff Creek, and use from the lake during the summer since prior to 1914 (RT 130®137; Oakwood Exhs. 3 and 4). During July 1960, which is considered to be a peak month, the average diversion by Brockway Water Company was 5.35 cfs with daily peaks reaching as high as 6.35 cfs. The demand is supplied from the gravity system whenever possible and is supplemented by pumping from the lake when necessary. The quantity of water -10, applied for under Application 17139 is being fully utilized from Lake Tahoe at the present time during the entire diversion season requested. This amounts to a total diversion of approximately 600 acre-feet per year (RT pp. 133-135, 14O, 150), North Tahoe Public Utility District Applications 17149 and 17235 are to appropriate 3 cfs from Lake Tahoe and 3 cfs by direct diversion and 5 acre-feet per annum by storage from unnamed springs tributary to Griff Creek, The service area of the district is a part of the area now served with water by Brockway Water Company (RT pp. 165, 169, 170), The district presently pro- vides sanitary services and street lighting for the area (RT, p, 160), On November 29, 1960, North Tahoe Public Utility District submitted petitions to change the place of use under Application 171L19; and to change the place of use, point of diversion, and character of use under Application 17235° The purpose of the petitions to change the place of use is to conform the place of use to present district boundaries and anticipated service area. Petition for change in point of diversion under Application 17235 proposes the moving of the point of diversion contemplated on the unnamed springs tributary to Griff Creek to Lake Tahoe and the elimination of the proposed storage of water. The petition for change in character of use under Application 17235 is to municipal use, which purpose was omitted in the original add application (RT pp, 154-157, Staff Exh, 1). Diversion of water under Applica- tions 17149 and 17235 is now to be at one location to be effected -11- by a submerged pipeline extending into Lake Tahoe with a pumping facility located on the shore. If the district's voters elect to do so, it has the power to engage in the distribution of water, even though the area is now served by a public utility. Such a decision should be forthcoming in the next year or so. Accordingly, it appears reason- able in approving the applications of the district to provide that no permits be issued. thereonunless and until the electors of the district, not later than July 1, 1963, vote to approve bonded indebtedness required for distribution of water. To prevent duplica- tion of water rights, it is also reasonable to provide that the quantities of water authorized by the district's permits be reduced by such water rights, if any, as it may acquire from Oakwood Invest- ment Company. The district's evidence indicates that as of 1970 its total annual diversion requirements will be about 1,900 acre-feet per annum 'with a maximum summer monthly diversion of 24.0 acre- feet. It is found that no one will be prejudiced by allowance of the district's petitions for change of place of use, point of diversion, and purpose of use. Meyers Water Company Applications 18021, 18030, 18031, 18038, and 18039 are to appropriate from Upper Truckee River for areas being developed by Tahoe Paradise, Inc. The service area is shown on Meyers Water Company Exhibit 4. On November 30, 1960, petitions were filed in connection with all of the applications -12- to consolidate the places of use so that water from any of the points of diversion named in the applications may be commingled and used throughout the entire service area (RT pp. 287-289). Notice of these petitions was given but no protests were received (Staff Exh. 1). A Petition for change in point of diversion under Application 18030 wasalso filed on March 28, 1961 (Staff Exh. 1). Thispetition.proposes moving the point of diversion under Application 18030 ,downstream approximately 2,000 feet in order to satisfy the protest by California 'Department of Fish and Game. The intervening land is all owned by the applicant (RT pp.,327-329). A request was also made by the company to reduce Application 18021 from 2.5 cfs to 1.0 cfs which allegedly would adequately cover the amount of water available (RT p. 257). It is found that no one would be prejudiced by allowance of said petitions and said requested amendment. Meyers Water Company was formed in 1955 and was certified as a public utility during the same year (RT pp. 260, 261). As of November 1960, the company had approximately 125 service connections and had approximately 180 connections during the summer peak of 1960 (RT p. 283). The company presently has two sources of water; one source is a well located in the northern portion of the service area which produces about 450 gallons per minute; the other source is a series of springs in the same area and is covered by Application 18021 (RT pp. 285-287). Meyers Water Company indicates that the summer water supply from the Upper Truckee River will be insufficient for its needs. Accordingly, the plan is to obtain a supplemental supply from wells (RT pp, 306, 307), The evidence indicates that Meyer's total water require- ments from all sources in 1970 will be about 2,760 acre-feet per annum and about 3!5 acre-feet in a maximum month. About 400 acre- feet of the annual requirements could be met by storage. The five applications of Meyers Water Company were pro- tested by the California Department of Fish and Game which presented evidence of the importance of the Upper Truckee River for the spawn- ing of Rainbow and Brown trout and Kokanee salmon. Rates of flow for the bypass of water down the Upper Truckee River, as proposed by the Department and agreed to by Meyers, are found to be in the public interest, John A. Fulton (dba Fulton Water Company) Application 18248 is for an appropriation of 1 cfs year-round from Lake Tahoe. The applicant's service area is located at the northwest corner of Lake Tahoe about 5 miles northeast of Tahoe City, At the present time approximately 175 residential connections are served by the company. Potentially the company will be obligated to serve about 950 customers, including 40 commercial lots. Most of the lots have already been sold (RT pp. 381-383), Fulton Water Company has been in business since 1928. The water supply for the company is pumped from Lake Tahoe at two locations. At present 100 gallons per minute are pumped from 014 the northerly pumping station (covered by Application 18248) and 60 gallons per minute are pumped at the southerly pumping station (covered by another application not yet set for hearing). During 1961, these pumping stations were to be increased to 200 gallons per minute and 100 gallons per minute, respectively (RT pp. 379, 393). Applicant Fulton Water Company has assumed a use of 450 gallons per day per person in calculating its future use of water. This quantity is substantially greater than the quantity used by the other applicants and that believed by the Board to be necessary. The consensus of the other applicants with regard to a quantity for daily per capita use in 1970 is 250 gallons per day. Using this quantity as a basis for estimating Fulton Water Company's 1970 use and applying the other criteria furnished by the Company, the total diversion in acre-feet per annum and the average diversion in cubic feet per second during the maximum month are 280 acre-feet per annum and 0.74 cubic foot per second, respectively. Accordingly, diversion in excess of 0.74 cubic foot per second will be denied. Tahoe Tavern Heights Water Company Application 18283 is for an appropriation of 0.9'cfs year-round from Lake Tahoe. The Company's service area is located on the west side of the lake about one mile south of Tahoe City (RT p. 359). At present the Company serves water to about 30 connections from a well located about 185 feet back from the shore of Lake Tahoe (RT pp. 360, 361). The well was installed in 1946 and has a pumping capacity of 45 gallons per minute (RT pp. 361-363). As development of the sub- division proceeds it is planned to pump water from Lake Tahoe to pro- vide a water supply for approximately 255 lots (RT pp. 361-364). -15- The evidence indicates that water requirements for Tahoe Tavern Heights Water Company in 1970 will be about 135 acre-feet a year, with a maximum monthly diversion of about 20 acre-feet, and that its service area will require a maximum rate of diversion of 0.4 cfs, Accordingly, diversion in excess of 0,4 cfs will be denied. Sierra Pacific Power Company filed protests against all of the subject applications; Truckee -Carson Irrigation District filed protests against all except Application 17235; and Washoe County Water Conservation District filed protests against all except Applications 17139 and 17149 (Staff Exho 1)o These three protestants are located in the State of Nevada. They presented no testimony or evidence at the hearing, apparently taking the position that, while not conceding that unappropriated water exists in the Lake Tahoe Basin, they will abide by any agreement entered into between the States of California and Nevada for allocation of the waters of Lake Tahoe Basin.

Baron, Vice -President of Meyers Water Company, with regard to the location of the point of diversion under Application 18030 as described in a petition dated March 2I+. The location of the point of diversion as described in the petition appeared to be in error when plotted on the geological survey, Echo Lake Quadrangle, 72 -minute series. Mr. Baron explained that the source under the application does not follow the course as shown on the geological survey quadrangle. He assured the writer that the description given in the petition is accuralge and corresponds with the actual location. Apparently Mr. Baron d has conducted a survey of the area and has aerial photographs which sub- stantiate his contention that the geological survey quadrangle sheet is in error. Accordingly, it is concluded that the point of diversion as described in the petition is on the same source as the point described in the original application but approximately 2000 feet downstream therefrom..

Forsberg SUBJECT: Hearing of Applications 21� 17139, etc., Lake Tahoe Basin On November 29 and 30 and December 1, 1960, the hearing of Applications 17139, 17149, 17235, 17727, 17761, 18021, 18030, 18031, 18038, 18039, 18248 and 18283 was continued, the first day of hearing having been held September 13, 1960. The hearing was held in Sacramento under the direction of Mr. Silverthorne, with the assistance of Messrs. Gulick and Forsberg. Board Members Rowe and McGill participated in the November 29 session of the hearing. Those parties making appearances at the hearing are the same as those during the September 13 session, with the exception of Tahoe Tavern Heights Water Company, represented by attorney Martin McDonough. Subsequent to the first day of hearing a request for cancellation of Application 17761 was received from Rosa LaPorte, Harvey E. and Selma C. Blackwell. Attorney William H. Orrick, Jr,, representing the protes- tants located in the State of Nevada, stipulated that no presenta- tion would be made on behalf of the Nevada protestants until the results of a February meeting of the Joint California -Nevada Inter- state Compact Commission are known. It is anticipated that an acceptable agreement for allocation of water in the Lake Tahoe Basin will be approved at that time which would satisfy the Nevada Protes- tants. Should the agreement not be effected, it is the desire of the Nevada protestants that an opportunity be given them to present evidence in support of their conten'Aoi; chat r.. s unappropriated water is available in the Lake Tahoe Basin_ the under:o,ana_r;g that • f Files December 1, 1960 Page Two such an opportunity would be afforded them, the Nevada protestants withdrew from any active participation in the hearing at this time. Prior to withdrawing, the Sierra Pacific Power Company indicated that after further consideration it had decided to withdraw its protest against Application 17727 of Alseno and Louise Oppio Fenech. Testimony and evidence was presented on behalf of all of the remaining applicants and protestant California Department of Fish and Game. The evidence presented by the applicants was directed toward showing the need for the water applied for, what the rate of development of water use will be and what the quantity of water used will amount to on an annual acre-foot basis -in 5 -year intervals until ultimate use is reached. The Department of Fish and Game presented testimony and evidence showing the importance of the Upper Truckee river as a fishery and spawning area for trout and Kokanee salmon. The hearing was concluded with the understanding that written briefs would be exchanged between competing applicants, Oakwood Investment Company and North Tahoe Public Utility District. The time limit placed upon the exchange was 10 days after receipt of transcript for the opening brief of Oakwood Investment Company, followed by a 10 -day period for a reply brief from North Tahoe Public Utility District. Further sessions of the hearing will be scheduled after it; is determined what the date of hearing will be of the Joint California -Nevada Interstate Compact Commission. RRF:fo . R.

Hill, Executive Officer Water Rights Board 1401 - 21st Street Sacramento 14, California Re: Meyers Water Company Application, Up er-Trucke-e Fiver Dear Sir: The undersigned Council is an association of sports- men's clubs from the counties of Sacramento, Yuba, Sutter, Nevada, Placer, El Dorado and Amador. We are greatly concerned about the above applica- tion. The Upper Truckee River is one of the vital elements to the fishery of the Lake Tahoe area. A great deal of public and private money has already been spent in an effort to maintain or im- prove the water conditions and minimum flows in this important stream. The prime usage of the Lake Tahoe region is recreation- al in nature; and we feel that in the usage of the water of this area recreational usage should accordingly be given the first and highest priority. Specifically, we feel that the maintenance of the flow in the Upper Truckee River merits the first and foremost consideration. Accordingly, we urge that the Water Rights Board, by whatever action or conditions are expedient, guarantee a minimum flow in the Upper Truckee River fully adequate for the fishery, in accordance with the recommendations of the Department of Fish & Game, in acting upon the pending application or any other applications that may be filed on the Upper Truckee River.

Henderson, Attorney Water Resources Placer County Water Agency Adolph Moskovitz, Attorney Fay Ledbetter and Alva Barton Frank G. Finnegan, Attorney k presentation was made on behalf of the Joint California -Nevada Interstate Compact Commission, setting forth the results of a water use study prepared jointly by the States of California and Nevada. The study indicates that the ultimate use of water in the Lake Tahoe Basin will be approximately 34,000 acre-feet. If and when a compact is effected between the two states, it is proposed that 65 per cent of the 34,000 acre-feet will be allocated to California and 35 per cent to Nevada. The Nevada protestants request that the Board give some assurance at this hearing that in issuing permits the amount of water allotted to California will not be exceeded. If such assurance is given, the Nevada protestants do not plan to present an extensive case. The California Department of Water Resources presented evidence showing excess water in the Lake Tahoe -Truckee River drainage basin during most years of a 30 -year study between 1923 and 1952. Evidence was also submitted by the Department showing that with the increased urbanization of the Lake Tahoe area there would be little if any net increase in the consumptive use of water unless sewage water is exported from the basin. One other presentation was made on behalf of El Dorado County . Water Agency, urging the Board to give careful consideration to the water e1 • Files ; September 22, 1960 Page Three needs of the Lake Tahoe Basin before issuing any permits. This is because the Lake Tahoe Basin is an area of potential water shortage. During the course of the hearing, the protest by Sierra Pacific Power Company against Application 18910 of Ruth Shurtleff was withdrawn. A request was made by the staff of the Board that each of the applicants prepare an estimate of the proposed monthly use of water in acre- feet, together with an estimate of the projected increase in use of water during the next five years, so that a more realistic determination of water needs may be ascertained. The hearing was concluded with the understanding that it would be rescheduled upon notice of all interested parties. R. R.

Attention: Mr. L. K. Hill, Executive Officer Gentlemen: Organized June I, 1940 At the annual meeting of the Rainbow Tract Association, held on Septemar 4, 1960, I was elected to represent this Association in filing a protest in connection with removal of water from the upper Truckee River. The Rainbow Tract occupies 28 lots along the upper Truckee River on Forest Service land. The holders of these lots have made a considerable invest- ment because of the attractiveness of this tract. The upper Truckee River has always been one of the principal assets, in that it provides great beauty and facilities for fishing and bathing. In addition, many lot holders rely on wells placed near the river as a source of water for do- mestic use and fire protection. In dry years the flow of water is extremely small and if any substantial amount is diverted it will materially decrease the beauty of the river and will seriously reduce the water level in wells placed near the river. This will reduce the enjoyment of the tract as a summer home area and, in due course, will depreciate the investment made by lot holders. Consequently, on behalf of the Rainbow Tract Association, I hereby protest Application Numbers 18030, 18031, 18038 and 18039, filed by the Meyers Water Company, and Application Number 18910, filed by Ruth T. Shurtleff. I expect to be present at the September 13, 1960 hearing. Home address: 152& Tuscaloosa=Avenue, Atherton, California. Phone: DAvenportp2-2364 ljo v-,41! Yours very truly, E. E.

There are also records of the water level of Lake Tahoe at Tahoe, California. Both records are published in the Water Supply Papers of that agency in Part 10, "The Great Basin". Published record of flows of Truckee River at Tahoe are available from July 1895 to February 1896; June 1900 to December 1943; and August 1957 to September 1959. Records of the level of the water in Lake Tahoe are available from April 1900 to date. They are published in the Water Supply Papers for the period April 1900 to September 1943; and October 1957 to September 1959. Records of the other years are in the files of the Truckee -Carson Irrigation District. Other Information Field investigations were made by engineers of the staff of the State Water Rights Board of all proposed,projects under these applications. Reports of the investigations were submitted to the Joint California - Nevada Interstate Compact Commission for review and comment. Subsequently the Commission advised the Board that it had no interest in the applications and recommended that the Board proceed with the processing of the applications. The individual projects are related only to the extent that all are within the Truckee River watershed in the Lake Tahoe area, and most of the applications have been protested by the same protestants. It should be noted, however, that the places of use overlap under Applications 17139, 17149 and 17235; that the applicants under Applications 17727 and 17761 (one spring) utilize water from the same spring; and that the project described under Application 18910 is within the service area specified under the Meyers Water Company's applications. -8- Scope of the Hearing The decision of the State Water Rights Board as to whether or not permits should be issued must be based upon the record developed at the hearing. The applicants and protestants should submit information responsive to the issues raised by the applications and the protests and answers thereto insofar as they relate to matters within the jurisdiction of the Board. Particular consideration will be given to the following items: 1. Existence of unappropriated water available to supply the applicants as to amounts and seasons of occurrence. 2. Anticipated injury, if any, to the protestants and other lawful downstream users should the applications -be approved, with specific data substantiating such injuries. 3. What special terms and conditions, if any, should be included in any permits that may be issued pursuant to the - subject applications. Documents to be Offered into Evidence The following public documents on file with the'State Water Rights Board contain information which may be relevant to the matters to be heard and will be offered into evidence by reference at the hearing: 1. The files of Applications 17139, 17149, 17235, 17727, 17761, 18021, 18030, 18031, 18038,, 18039, 18248, 18283 and 18910. 2. Bulletin No. 10 of the State.

Spencer On Wednesday, attended the MEMORANDUM January 13, January 21, 1960 Subject: CNICC meeting of January 13, 1960 71 1960, the undersigned joint meeting of the California Nevada Interstate Compact Commission at the Holiday Hotel, in Reno. The principal matter of interest to the State Water Rights Board was the dis- position of a number of water right applications, memorandums of which had been forwarded to the Commissions for their con- sideration and recommendation. Mr. Muth advised the Chair that the Nevada Commission had taken the following actions: A. Applications 17119 B. Applications 15474 C. Applications 18222 D. Application 18295 E. Applications 18704 and 17766. and 15475 and 18223 - No interest - Request action be 60 days - Request action be indefinitely - Request action be held indefinitely and 18705 - No interest F. Applications 18021, 18030, 18031, 18038, 18039 G. Application 18248 H. Application 184.09 I. Applications 17139, 17149, and 17235 delayed withheld with- - Request action be withheld for the time being - Request action be withheld for the time being - Request action be withheld for the time being - Request action be withheld for the time being Files J. Application 18283 K. Applications 17727 and 17761 Application 17415 January 21, 1960 - Request action be with- held for the time being Request action be with- held for the time being - Request action be with- , held for the time being. Mr. -Girard made a motion that the applications on the Carson and Walker systems, upon which the Nevada Commission had recommended action be delayed or withheld, be referred to the Walker River Committee or the Carson River Committee, as appro- priate, for whatever action the committee might recommend. Mr. Girard further moved that this Board be•asked to withhold action temporarily on these applications. The motion was seconded and carried without objection. • Mr. Muth made a motion that action on the Tahoe and Truckee Basin applications as recommended by the Nevada Commission be affirmed by the joint commission and that this Board be notified of the action. The motion was amended to include that this Board be notified that progress is being made toward final settlement of the allocation of water between the states, and that the final compact may be accepted in approximately four months. This motion also carried. The writer had the understanding that the Joint Com- mission meant to clear Applications 17719, 17766, 18704, and 18705, but was in doubt as to whether the recommendation of "no interest" in Applications 17719 and 17766 had been ratified by the Joint Commission. The writer asked for verification of his understanding of the various actions outlined above. This was confirmed by the Chair and a number of commission members. N Files -3- January 21, 1960 Subsequently, the matter of progress toward reaching an agreement upon permit terms to be included in the Watasheamu applications of the Bureau of_Reclamation was discussed. It was stated by Mr. Richards that the project was being further studied and it appeared likely some revisions in the project, particularly as to size of reservoir, might be recommended. Mr. Devore stated that progress upon the final permits will await a report from the Bureau of Reclamation. Other matters discussed at the meeting were of only in- cidental interest to the Board.
