In that decision the Board assumedtobe surplus and unappropriated the water from Lake Tahoe and the Truckee River stream system "flowing by Derby Dam which is not required to satisfy decreed downstream Indian rights and which wastes into Pyramid Lake." An analysis of studies of the Department of. Water Resources indicated the availability of unappropriated water. The same conclusion is indicated by the "Joint Report on the Use, of Water in the Lake Tahoe Watershed," prepared by the State Engineers .of Nevada and California, and dated June 1919 (Staff Exh. 3) . As was the case in Decision D 1056, careful consideration must be given to quanti- tative diversion limitations expected to be imposed by the California -Nevada Compact, covering allocation of water in the Lake Tahoe Basin. Accordingly, individual applications will be considered on their own merits and then with respect to maximum monthly and annual limitations based on requirements. A staff study (introduced by reference, page 4, transcript of February 27, 1963) indicates, and the Board finds, that it is reasonable to . limit requirements to a per capita use basis not in excess of 250 gallons per day. Because n� long-term water development projects are involved, and because of anticipated Compact diversion' limitations, maximum requirements will be based on the year 1970, as was done in Decision D 1056. Sierra Nevada Water Company_ Application 19111 is for a permit to appropriate 0.35 cubic foot -per .:second (cfs) •, year- round, from Lake Tahoe for domestic and•recreational purposes. Applicant is a public utility corporation subject to the jurisdic- tion of the California Public Utilities Commission. Its service area, known as Dollar Point, is on the northwest side of Lake Tahoe, about 2.5 miles nor-theast of:; Tahoe City. The gross area of the - development is about 185 acres contiguous to Lake. Tahoe, all of which is to be subdivided into residential lots.. Recreational use of water in a swimming pool is expected • to require a flow of 0,02 cfs for six months of the year. The balance of the 0.35 cfs requested would be for domestic use. `1t is, possible that monthly requirements for June through September may exceed this amount. Application 21398 has been filed by the`Company for an additional supply. The Company's° requirements,..:(wlthin limits of Application 19111) are not in excess of 22 acre-feet in a maximum month, or 188 acre-feet in any year John A. Fulton dba Fulton Water Company)(hereinafter called Fulton) Applications 18248*.j 19509 and 19510request appropriation from Lake Tahoe to serve an area located at the *Application 18248 of John. A. Fulton was approved by Decision D 1056 and, after reconsideration, reinstated by Order adopted on March 14, 1963. northwest corner of Lake Tahoe, about 5 miles northeast of Tahoe City. Applicant is a public utility under the.jurisdiction.of the Public Utilities Commission. Application 18248 was approved for year-round diversion, limited to a maximum diversion rate of 0.74 cfs and a total diversion of 280 acre-feet in any year. Application 19510 requests year-round diversion at the rate of 2 cfs for an area almost identical to the place of use presently authorized for Application 18248 Petitions are now pending to authorize the identical place of use for both appli- cations. If approved, the newly authorized place of use would be similar to that now authorized for Application 18248, except that it would add a small excluded area. As originally filed, each ap- plication proposed a single point of diversion, located' about one mile apart. Petitions are now pending "-in connection with each application to add the point of diversion requested in the other application, It is" found that, no, legal user of water would be prejudiced by the proposed change 'of Tl•ace of -use •or °change of points of diversion. An order will be entered approving said petitions. The Board finds that the. total 1970 diversion require- ments of the area to be served by Applications 18248 and 19510. will be about 50.5 acre-feet in a maximum month and 314 acre-feet in any year. Said figures are inclusive of and not in addition to comparable amounts already authorized Fultonts Application 19.509 relates to a separate water system to serve a separate place of use located about one mile to • • the southwest of Fulton, s place of ,use previously described. It is found that the 1970 diversion requirements for this area will be about 12 acre-feet in a maximum. month (equivalen.t>to a continuous flow of 0,193 cfs) and 74 acre-feet in any year. Fulton (and other applicants) will be expressly authorized to have an instantaneous rate of diversion in excess of that computed .and authorized on a continuous -flow basis, provided the maximum month and annual limits are not exceeded, Such •.a provision should permit Fultonto meet its daily peak requirements and comply with reasonable requirements of the Public Utilities Commission without exceeding monthly or annual limits, "_.eyers Water Companv (hereinafter called Me.-ers s_A.222ication. 19629 requests authority to appropriate 2.33 cfs, year- r•ound, and to appropriate 104 a .ere -fee ;b 7 storage, between Octo- ber 1 of each year and ;lune 1 of the succeeding year, from Coyote Creek, a tributary of the Upper Truckee Elver. Meyers is a wholly- owned subsidiary, of Tahoe Paradise, inc,,-and a.public u:t `ity under the jurisdictionaof the Californi`aPublic Utilities Commission. reyers'seeks by petition to change the proposed place of use under Application 19629 to an area of a little over 5,000 acres identical with the place of use authorized by Decision D 1056 for appropriation pursuant to its Applica toric 18021, 18030, 18031, 18038 and 18039, A common distribution_' sytem is planned for the entire area. It is found that the change would not operate to the injury of any legal user of water from the source involved, and the consolidated place of. use will be authorized. Since the evidence of requirements with respect to subject application is for the most part identical with that introduced by Meyers at the earlier.�hearing, the_Boardwill regard the maximum monthly and annual limits imposed. by Decision D 1056 as still being applicable but will approve subject application for the purpose of firming the supply and adding flexibility.to the system. A stipulation with the Department of ,Fish .and ..Game for the release of water in Coyote Creek for fish preservation was found reasonable by the'Board and .ap.pr.ov.ed in the earlier decision, The Board will again for the same -purpose °require in"°the natural channel of Coyote Creek below the proposed dam "a flow'of 0.25 cubic foot per second or the natural floes whichever is less." (Emphasis added) Since the water to be appropriated. under Ap- plication 19629 rises largely from springs:which will be inundated by the reservoir proposed under the filing9 the applicant requests a preconstruction observation, period of .three years for postconstruc- tion use in calculating "natural flow." This request is found to be reasonable, and required commencement'of construction will be postponed to July 1, 1966, Duncan S. Davis (dba Mountain_Savings Water Company). Application 10819 requests appropriati-on, year-round, from Lake Tahoe at the rate of 0.42 cubic foot per second for an area at the north end of the lake known as Agate. Bay Development Sites. The applicant is a public utility under' the jurisdiction of the Public Utilities Commission,, and its present source of water is a -7-- d� spring. Maximum development' of the area -to be served from Lake. Tahoe is expected by 1968, at which -ttme the -requirements for a maximum month are computed as 26 °acre®feet and, for ;beneficial use of water for a full year, not to exceed 160 acre-feet. The wintertime practice of "bleeding," or allowing water to run freely for the sole purpose of preventing freezing of pipes, does not. involve beneficial use of water. Quantitilis of {water requested for "bleeding" have been excluded; For purposes of this computation the Board adopted the wintertime -summertime ratio of use ,of the nearby and comparable Fulton system. Tahoe City Public Utility District A lication1:9845 seeks appropriation, year-round, of 7.5 cfs from Lake Tahoe for an anticipated service area of 1,000 acres located near the outlet of Lake Tahoe to the Truckee River. The District now has a service area of about half that size which is served with spring water and some lake water. Utilizing the District's population projections to 1970 and. the 250 gallons ° per capita, the District's ,maximum monthly requirements from all sources are computed as 72 acre-feet and its annual requirements as 444 acre-feet. Accordingly, monthly and annual limitations will include water from all sources. The evidence does not justify adoption by the Board of the District's daily per capita requirement estimates. Lawrence H. and Be 1 S. Smith and Robert H. Williams plication 20137 requests appropriation of 0.16 cfs, year-round, from Lake Tahoe to serve an area of approximately 70 acres located about 4 miles south of Tahoe City -on the westerly side of State . Highway 89, Maximum month requirements for 19.70 are found not to exceed 9 acre-feet and the annual diversion not to -,exceed 50 acre- feet. This application -was originally Medan the name of "Kimberly. W. Mosier, re resenting the Tahoe Mutual Water 'Company(not ''formed at this date." (Emphasis added). At the hearing on February 28, 1962, Mr. Mosier testified that it was definitely intended to incorporate a mutual water company to serve the place of'use (RT 155), and indi- cated that shares would be issued to the purchaser of each.lot .(RT 151). The application indicates -the subdivision is intended to contain 140 lots, each of which would be dependent on the future mutual water company for its water supply. Establishment of such a water company .by the applicant would be consistent with the Board's rules 754 and 756,. and would simplify administration by the Board of appropriative .water..r.ight.s to,,serve .the 140 .lots. Accordingly, it is found to be in the public interest to require the applicants to form a mutual water company or arrange for some comparable agency capable 'of permanent service to. the place of use. The evidence indicates and the Board finds that unappro- priated water exists in the Lake Tahoe Basin, including all proposed points of diversion, and that subject to• suitable limitations and conditions, such water may be diverted and.used in the manner proposed without causing substantial injury to any lawful user of water. . The intended use is beneficial. From the foregoing findings, the Board'concludes that Applications 19111, 19509, 19510, 19629, 19819, 19845, and 20137 should be approved in part, and that.permits should be issued to the respective applicants for a total annual quantity not to exceed 3990 acre-feet including 304a acre-feet under earlier permits issued pursuant -to Decision D 1056 and sub,j.ect to limi- tations and conditions of general or specific applicability as indicated. ORDER IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Applications 19111, 19509, 19510, 19629, 19819, 19845, and 20137 be, and they are, approved, in part, *subject to vested rights _and to 'the-lirrii:t-ations 'and conditions of -special app1icabil-ity -as--'set forth'in-the following Orders and to the limitations and conditions of general applica- -- bility to be included in each permit as follows° cq 1.

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 aninsufficient flow in the stream would be destructive to the trout and Kokan.ee 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 latterus proposed service area. The Lake Tahoe Basin consists of a relatively surrounded by a rather narrow doughnut -shaped watershed large lake 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 Exhs, L and 5)e 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 -3- a storage reservoir, with a capacity of about 745,000 acre-feet between elevation 6,223 (the rim of the lake) and 6,229.]. (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 "to -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 4, 1915, in the District Court of the United States, Northern District of California, Second Division, in the 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. L.. Truckee River final decree entered September 8, 191111, 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. • • 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 Floriston, California, and permits regulatory operations in order to satisfy the rights of both irrigation and power interests, The NewlandsProject contract of 1926 gives the 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 19L14 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 19L4 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, 49-54; 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, -7- River there these Since Lake Tahoe is an interstate lake, and the Truckee rises for the most part in California and flows into Nevada, is an underlying requirement for an equitable division of interstate waters between the States of California and Nevada, See Colorado v, Kansas, 320 U. So 383, 614. SOCt, 176 (1943). That California has not yet exhausted its entitlement appears clear, since most of the Lake Tahoe, rises water of the Truckee River System, including in California, 'but nearly all use of the Truckee takes place in Nevada. This authorize appropriation of unappropriated water of the consumptive Boards power to is limited to Californials 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). 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. 8588). 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 Exho 7). In view of the possible limitations of a water supply to California by the proposed Compact, the reservation of large quantities of water for long range future development in the Lake Tahoe area is found to be against the public interest. It appears reasonable to limit permits to amounts 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 Chevy Creek Ditch Co., 301 U. S. 92, 58 S.Cte 803), -9- • • Oakwood Investment Company (dba Brockw y Water Co.) 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 p• 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, 1409 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, 19609 North Tahoe Public Utility District submitted petitions to change the place of use under Application 17149; 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 add municipal use, which purpose was omitted in the original 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 districts 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 thereon unless 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 itmay 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 240 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). This petition 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, thecompany had approximately 125 service connections and had approximately 189 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 345 acre-feet in a maximum month. About 4.00 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 the northerly pumping station (covered by Application 182L8) 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 concensus 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 0.7L 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 L4.5 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 17139 and 17149 (Staff Exh. 1). These three all except Applications 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, These Nevada protestants also urge that the Board, if it does issue permits, impose such reasonable restrictions and limita- tions as will insure economical and beneficial use of the water allocated to California (RT pp. 101®104; Staff Exh, 1), The evidence indicates and the Board finds that unappropri- ated water exists in the Lake Tahoe Basin, and that subject to suita- ble limitations and conditions, such water may be diverted and used in the manner proposed without causing substantial injury to any lawful user of water. The intended use is beneficial. -16- From the foregoing findings, the Board concludes that Applications•17139, 171499 17235, 18021, 18030, 18031, 18038, and 18039 should be approved, that Applications 18248 and 18283 should be approvedin part, and that permits should be issued to the respective applicants for a total annual quantity not to exceed 5,675 acre-feet and subject to limitations and conditions of general or specific applicationsas indicated.

Forsberg SUBJECT: Hearing of Applications 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 content:ior, gat n.. unappropriated wator is available in the Lake Tahoe Basin. W]_th the underaLa. _n that 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 wi'.1 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 theunderstanding 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. R. R.

Henderson, Attorney Placer County Water Agency Adolph Moskovitz, Attorney Fay Ledbetter and Alva Barton Frank G. Finnegan, Attorney A 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 proposed4that 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 sho'ling 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 b'• • 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.

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 Nevada Interstate Compact Commission for review the Commission advised the Board that it had no and recommended that the Board proceed with the the Joint California - and comment. Subsequently interest in the applications 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. 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.

Both of these lettere referred to requests which the Joint Commission had made asking your Board to with- hold action on certain applications to appropriate water in the Lake Tahoe, Truk.., Carson and Walker River watersheds until the Commission had given further consideration to these applications. The Commission has reviewed its previous requests to you and as a result has adopted the following recommendations: 1. The State Water Rights Board proceed in the usual course with its processing of water right applications 15474 and 15475, both of which relate to the waters of the Walker River Basin. 2. The State Water Rights Board proceed in the usual course with its processing of those applications for water rights for domestic, municipal and recreation uses in the Lake Tahoe and Titmice.

Sincerely yours, E. A. MUTE, Secretary Joint California -Nevada Interstate Compact Commission By Robert B.. Bond Assistant Secretary MEMORANDUM To File From L. C. Spencer January 21, 1960 Subject: CNICC meeting of January 13, 1960 /0 On Wednesday, January 13, 1960, the undersigned attended the 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 and 17766 - No interest and 15475 C. Applications 18222 and 18223 D. Application 18295 E. Applications 18704 and 18705 F. Applications 18021, 18030, 18031, 18038, 18039 G. Application 1821.8 H. Application 181.09 I. Applications 17139, 17149, and 17235 - Request action be delayed 60 days - Request action be withheld indefinitely - Request action be with- held indefinitely - No interest - Request for the - Request for the Request for the - Request for the action be withheld time being action be withheld time being action be withheld time being action be withheld time being Files J. Application 18283 •2- January 21, 1960 - Request action be with- held for the time being K Applications 17727 and 17761 —Request action be with- held for the time being L. Application 17415 - 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. • 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. .-/ f' t.. C . Spencer I Supervising Hydraulic Engineer LCS:vc Attar oePiteiviotttos 44/140441.

Final decision by the Board is limited to consideration of the matters covered in the transcript, which also may include other material by refer- ence. The proceedings in lieu of hearing normally include an announced visit by an"engineer'of this: -office who views the local situation, interviews the parties or their representatives in attendance, conducts such field investigation as cir- •cumstancewarrant-and submits a written.report for a permanent record of the Board. Final decision by the Board is based upon the report, together with such written representations, records and other documents as the parties may submit, and any other relevant information available. • If. you opr.efer the proceedings in lieu of hearing, please sign and return to this office without delay the enclosed stipulations.
